Beta list is open
Weâve been building something I wish existed years ago: a space where you can actually figure out what looks good on you.Not based on trends. Based on you. vestiaire.io is live in beta.

đ Hi, Iâm Idil. Iâm a software engineer with a computer science background. Iâve always wanted to know how things work: in life, in code, and across the stack. That curiosity drives everything I build and write. I like turning âwhat if?â into working software, exploring what the platform can really do, and making digital ideas feel real. I share what I learn through blog posts, demos, and ebooks. Sometimes for fun, sometimes for the real world. If you're into that, stick around.

Freedom is a skill
This summer, I went to Menorca and kept working.But I could swim between meetings and I wasnât overheating by 10 a.m. And the weird part? I worked better.I wasnât rushing through everything. I had space to think. I wasnât annoyed all the time. Not because it was a âbreak.â It wasnât.I just wasnât miserable, and apparently that helps. Balance doesnât always mean working less.Sometimes it just means not feeling like youâre surviving your day before it even starts. Thatâs all.
Learning the Craft Before Building for It
Not many people know this, but I took fashion design classes from Parsons New York while building Vestiaire.This oneâs from my sketching class. I wasnât trying to become a fashion designer. I just needed to understand how clothing works, how shapes move, how proportions shift, how real garments come together before they ever make it into a digital product. Because if Iâm building tools for people who care about fashion, I need to meet the craft where it lives. This sketch looks nothing like code.But honestly? It taught me more about user interfaces than a lot of design systems ever did
Responsive design is everywhere.
A dress looks different when it moves, just like a layout on mobile. Good design adapts.
Little things that make work lighter
This guy sits on my desk during long nights of debugging. Just a small reminder not to take it all too seriously: the bugs, the deadlines, the code that worked yesterday but not today.Sometimes you just need a duck with sunglasses.
Web Summit was wild.
A year ago I was debugging CSS transitions at 2 a.m. Now Iâm talking about building fashion-tech tools that donât just work,they actually understand users.Crazy.
