1. A virtual try-on apparatus comprising:

  • a first acquisition unit configured to acquire first characteristic information relating to a try-on subject, wherein the first characteristic information represents an age bracket in which the try-on subject resides, the try-on subject'"'"'s personality, the try-on subject'"'"'s preference, and a personal color similar to a skin color of the try-on subject, an eye color of the try-on subject, or a hair color of the try-on subject;

    a first display controller configured to display, on a first display, multiple clothing images corresponding to the first characteristic information in first information in which the first characteristic information and the multiple clothing images are associated with each other;

    an acceptor configured to accept a selection of a subset of the multiple clothing images to be tried on in combination from among the multiple clothing images displayed on the first display;

    a generator configured to generate a composite image comprising a try-on subject image of the try-on subject and the subset of the multiple clothing images superimposed on the try-on subject image according to a first order of layers defined by order of layers information associated with the subset of the multiple clothing images; and

    a second display controller configured to display the composite image on a second display,whereinthe virtual try-on apparatus further comprises a first transmitter configured to transmit, to a first server device, try-on information including clothing IDs representing product numbers or clothing names of the multiple clothing images included in the composite image displayed on the second display, a try-on subject ID for uniquely identifying the try-on subject in the try-on subject image included in the composite image, and the clothing images identified by the clothing ID,the second display controller repeatedly executes, during displaying of the composite image, generating of the composite image by combining the try-on subject image continuously shot by an image-capturing unit with the clothing images corresponding to the clothing IDs included in second information and corresponding to posture information calculated from a depth map of the try-on subject, the second information including clothing IDs of clothing to be tried oneach time a new composite image is generated, the second display controller switches the composite image displayed on the second display with the new composite image,during generation and regeneration of the composite image, after removing an overlapping area between the try-on subject image or a clothing image in a lower layer, and a clothing image superimposed in an upper layer, the generator sequentially superimposes the subset of the multiple clothing images from the lower layer to the upper layer, andthe first display controller is configured to further display, on the first display, a recommended image extracted from the multiple clothing images according to a pre-decided extraction condition that is at least one of an image of clothing previously selected by another try-on subject having second characteristic information fitted to or similar to the first characteristic information of the try-on subject, an image of clothing recommended by a store selling clothing, an image of clothing recommended by a famous person or a celebrity preferred by the try-on subject, or an image of clothing previously selected by another try-on subject with a preference fitted to or similar to the try-on subject'"'"'s preference.
