Alama vs Acloset: your actual photo, and a marketplace built for the UK
Acloset is a digital wardrobe with AI styling and an avatar try-on. Alama renders outfits on your actual photo, sells your clothes on a marketplace built for the UK, and never runs ads. Here is the side-by-side.

Why UK users pick Alama
- Your photo, not a stand-in Try-on happens on the picture you took. There is no generated figure between you and the result.
- A wardrobe that sells List what you don't wear on a UK marketplace with escrow, tracked labels and returns.
- Built here, no ads GBP pricing, UK shipping and returns, and a business model that never sells you.
Acloset may suit you if an outfit calendar and style stats matter more than try-on on your own photo or selling.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Acloset show clothes on your actual photo?
- No. As of 17 September 2026, Acloset's own support page describes Try On as dressing “an AI avatar created from your photo”: you supply one photo, it generates a figure, and the clothes go on the figure. Alama renders outfits and pre-loved pieces on the photo itself — what you see is you, in your own picture.
- Can I sell clothes on Acloset?
- As of 17 October 2026, neither Acloset's website nor its App Store listing describes any selling, marketplace or resale feature. Alama has a built-in UK peer-to-peer marketplace: list an item straight from your wardrobe, with escrow payments, tracked shipping labels and a returns process; sellers keep 100% of the price and buyers pay a 5% + £0.70 fee on the item.
- Is Acloset free?
- Both apps are free up to 100 items. Alama's free tier also includes 25 outfits, 3 collections and welcome credits for AI try-on, with optional Organiser and Style Pass plans and no ads on any tier. Acloset requires a monthly subscription beyond 100 items, and says its try-on allowance may vary with its account policies.
- Which is better for UK users?
- Alama is built for the UK: GBP pricing, UK shipping labels, UK returns and a marketplace that follows UK consumer law. Acloset is a global app available in 18 languages with nothing UK-specific in it, and no way to sell.
- What does Acloset have that Alama doesn't yet?
- An outfit calendar and style stats. Alama tracks wears and gives wardrobe insights, and a calendar view is on the way, so if a calendar is the centre of how you use a wardrobe app, weigh that against try-on on your actual photo and the ability to sell.
- Is Alama a good Acloset alternative?
- Yes, and the closest one in the UK: a full digital wardrobe with AI styling, try-on on your actual photo rather than an avatar, camera-roll import that shows your free slots before it scans, and a built-in UK marketplace — with no ads.
