How to take good Vinted photos without a model
No mannequin at home? Don’t want to pose wearing the item?
Good news: you can still take excellent photos for your Vinted listings without a model.
Here are some practical tips to help you capture photos that grab buyers’ attention, even with a simple setup.
🧼 1. Prepare the item
Make sure the clothing is:
- Clean
- Ironed
- Properly folded or shaped
Even without a model, a wrinkled or saggy item looks neglected.
🌞 2. Use natural lighting
Avoid yellow indoor lights.
Shoot during the day, near a window with soft, diffused light.
💡 Tip: Use a white surface or wall to reflect light and soften shadows.
📸 3. Choose a clean background
Use a neutral, distraction-free background (white, light wood, or a solid-colored sheet).
Avoid cluttered rooms or mixed textures.
🪧 4. Lay flat or hang neatly
Two simple options:
- Flat lay: centered, aligned, cropped nicely
- Hanging: on a simple hanger, against a clean wall or door
🤖 5. Or generate a worn photo automatically
With VintyLook, you can create a realistic worn image from your item photo.
It’s fast, convincing, and perfect if you prefer not to model yourself.
✅ In summary
- Well-prepared clothing = trust
- Good light + simple background = professional
- No model required
- And with VintyLook, you can simulate a worn look in seconds
