Fashion AI School guide
AI influencers for brands
An AI influencer is a virtual person created with AI who publishes content like a creator. Brands define the persona first, lock one face with a reference set, produce every post from that set, and clearly disclose that the person is AI-generated.
How it works, step by step
Step 1
Write the brief
Persona, values, voice, content pillars and limits.
Step 2
Create the face
Generate candidates and choose one.
Step 3
Lock a reference set
Front, three-quarter, profile and full body.
Step 4
Build a content system
Repeatable weekly formats.
Step 5
Disclose clearly
Say the person is AI-generated; label paid posts.
Step 6
Approve every post
A named person at the brand signs off.
