Hi timmm thanks for your reply. The long term goal is to translate this into a mobile app. Have you used netflix or pulse on your phone or ipad? Both have implemented a side scrolling UI which makes it easy to navigate. Assuming you are accustomed to online shopping would it be easier to create and purchase outfits this way?
I don't see the value of comparing consumer device navigation techniques to the idea/gimmick of designing a whole outfit on a website.
Sure the navigation strategy is good for mobile/tablet browsing - no question there. But I'm not sure the designing an outfit in this way is something people will want.
