Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: providing a software application to execute on a respective computing device operated by a user, wherein the respective computing device is configured with a camera and is configured by the software application to: obtain user profile information representing at least respective physical body measurements and clothing fit preferences of each of a plurality of people, store on the respective computing device at least some of the user profile information representing the physical body measurements respectively associated with at least one of the people; automatically cause the camera to take an image; automatically extract, from the image, clothing information representing at least one respective article of clothing; and automatically transmit the extracted clothing information, using a first data communication protocol on a network, to at least one processor; in response to receiving, by the at least one processor from the respective computing device using a first data communication protocol on the network, i) first user profile information respectively associated with one person, wherein none of the received first user profile information includes physical body measurements, and ii) first clothing information respectively associated with a first article of clothing, transmitting by the at least one processor over the network to a computing device associated with the respective article of clothing, information representing the article of clothing; receiving, by the at least one processor over the network from a different computing device associated with the article of clothing, clothing article size information representing at least one measurement of the first article of clothing; accessing, by the at least one processor, a respective one reference body model of a plurality of stored reference body models, each of which correspond with respective ones of various clothing sizes, wherein the respective one reference body model corresponds with the clothing article size information; transmitting, by the at least one processor to the respective computing devices, the clothing article size information and information representing the one reference body model; wherein the respective computing device is further configured by the software application to: automatically correlate the received clothing article size information and the stored physical body measurements represented in the first user profile information; automatically display, as a function of the step of correlating, a comparison that includes: a graphical representation of the respective one reference body model; and a graphical representation of the first user's body, wherein the comparison is based at least in part on the clothing fit preferences of the one person.
