This is a quick guide to get you started. If you have not used Meet Your Wardrobe before, or don’t have any products added then a good starting point would be our guide to Getting Started with MYWardobe here.
So why create a Private Shared Wardrobe? There are a number of reasons, a couple of the popular ones:
1. You are a professional in the fashion industry (a designer, stylist, PR, etc) and need to share or loan out products on a regular basis either for free or for a fee. In this scenario MYW allows you to do so in a private and audited manner. Only people you provide access to have access to see what’s in your shared wardrobe and make a request. It is easy to provide access, and it is also easy to take access away if a person doesn’t need access to your shared wardrobe anymore.
2. You are a fashion tastemaker and many people in either your immediate circle of friends or broader social circle regularly borrow or loan from you. Like in the previous point, MYW allows you to provide access in a more robust and audited manner. Allowing you to keep track of what has been loaned out. Plus giving you the option to provide or revoke access easily.

When you first log in you are met with this set of Menus and Buttons. So far so good, but everything is blank! Great, you are now ready to start adding products to your Wardrobe…
Step 1) The Wardrobe section of the platform is private to you… everything that has a sub-status of In Wardrobe cannot be seen by anyone other than you!
i. To begin with, select the product by selecting the Action checkbox.
ii. Now click on the Assign to Shared Wardrobe Button.
And that’s it! It will now be viewable in your Shared Wardrobe.
Step 2) Now that you have your products in your Shared Wardrobe, it’s time to let everyone know!
i. Click on the My Shared Wardrobe Button to take you to your Shared Wardrobe details page
ii. Now click on the Settings Button.
And voila! You will see your dedicated link that allows people to request access to and view your Shared Wardrobe (once you’ve granted access)
You can now share this link with people who need access to your shared wardrobe.
Step 3) Still on your Settings page. As people begin requesting access to view your shared wardrobe you will start seeing the Invitation Requests section start to populate with the requests.
For each access request you have the option to Accept [tick], Reject [cross] or View more info [eye].
Step 4) If you decide to accept the request in the previous step than the user accepted would move across to the Available Users section which determines who has access to your Shared Wardrobe.
In the future if you want to revoke access for any reason, all you have to do is find the user on the list and click the Bin icon.
Step 5) As you start adding your products to your shared wardrobe, users that have access to it will be able to view them as shown here.
Step 6) On clicking on a product on the main page, they will be able to send over a rental request by suggesting dates and sending a rental request. You then have the option to approve or reject the request.
And that’s it! A shared wardrobe is only a few clicks away…
