Reverse image search engines allow you to search the web using an image. Instead of typing keywords into a search engine, you upload a picture, and the image search engine scans the index to find matches or visually similar images. This method is particularly helpful for finding clothes because it bypasses the need to describe the item in words— and that can be tricky, especially if you're not sure how to describe a particular style, fabric, or pattern.

When you use reverse image search for finding clothes, it can help you discover new brands, compare prices, or even get outfit inspiration from different retailers.

There are many other use cases for implementing such tools, which are detailed in our latest article: You need to start using reverse image search. Here's why.
