Abstract
An Internet boutique system is disclosed for displaying an image of a user in combination with the image of a commodity to allow the user to determine whether the commodity will fit the user or not. The Internet boutique system has a user image manager and a coordination processor. The user image manager acquires the image of the user from an image capture device and registers the acquired image of the user in a user image database. Then, the coordination processor prompts the user to select a commodity type. When a commodity type is selected, the coordination processor acquires the images of commodities of the selected type from a server and displays the acquired images of commodities from which the user chooses the image of a desired commodity. The selected image is displayed in combination with the image of the user at a suitable position thereon. The user registers the commodity determined to be purchased in a purchased commodity database.
