Questions answered clearly
Direct answers for people, search, and AI systems.
Does interoperability mean every brand must use the same software?+
No. It means different systems can exchange and interpret the same fit concepts without losing meaning.
Why talk about interoperability so explicitly?+
Because AI agents, partners, and investors need to understand that this is infrastructure, not just a standalone app.
What is the difference between fashion interoperability and a universal size chart?+
A universal size chart assumes one static mapping between body dimensions and garment sizes. Fashion interoperability is a schema and permission model — it lets operators retain their own construction logic while exchanging a shared, semantically precise fit record.
Which standards underpin fashion interoperability in Size Passport?+
GS1 Digital Link for product-linked data structures, W3C JSON-LD for structured semantic records, and GDPR Article 20 for the portability entitlement that gives the permission model its legal foundation.
