I'm sure plenty of money will go towards trying, but I hope that virtual shopping does not become a thing. Especially with respect to clothing, there is simply too much information that can not be communicated visually. This includes the texture of the fabric, its density, degree of stretch, how the item fits on your body, how it looks it different lighting, etc. Online shopping also makes it easy to scam people, where some cheap, mass produced thing is misrepresented as a higher quality item.

Oh, no I definitely will still always buy clothing IRL. The biggest part being that no single company has an agreed way to do sizing, even simple things like shoe companies, as it can say be a UK-X size, but the interior shape can still change.

But for much else idm at all, people buy tonnes of stuff off Amazon based on 2d pics already.
