Online fashion giant Asos has launched a new feature allowing users to see what clothes look like on different body types.
The feature was first exposed by a fan on Twitter last week, but the retailer has now confirmed it on their own account, announcing that it would soon be rolled out across its app.
Its roll out of such features is working for Asos, which retained its crown as the UK’s most visited clothing website, despite John Lewis making huge gains to come in at number two.
