Myntra Image Size & Guidelines (2026): Full Spec Sheet

Short answer: Myntra requires a 3:4 portrait aspect ratio, a minimum of 1,080 × 1,440 px (1,500 × 2,000 px recommended), JPEG format, pure white #FFFFFF background on the primary image, and a gender-matched, full-length real model for apparel — women's wear on a female model, men's wear on a male model, kidswear on an age-appropriate child. The minimum slot count is five: front on-model, back on-model, side or three-quarter, fabric or trim detail, and a styled look-shot. Myntra is the strictest fashion marketplace in India in 2026.

This is the verified spec sheet for sellers, broken down slot by slot, with the rejection traps that consistently block uploads and what changed when Myntra Studio rolled out generative-image acceptance.

The five-slot apparel sequence

Every Myntra apparel listing needs all five shots — in this order — for the QC pass.

1. 1
   Slot 1 · PrimaryFront viewFull-length front-facing, white seamless, model facing camera, garment clearly lit.
2. 2
   Slot 2Back viewSame model, same garment, turned around — back construction visible, light grey seamless.
3. 3
   Slot 3Three-quarter45° body angle, garment drape depth visible. Same backdrop as the back view.
4. 4
   Slot 4Fabric detailMacro close-up of weave, print, or embroidery texture. No model required.
5. 5
   Slot 5Styled lookFull-length look-shot with coordinated accessories. How the garment is worn in context.

Why 3:4 (and why 1:1 fails)

Myntra's product detail page is built mobile-first around a 3:4 hero crop. Submitting a 1:1 square — even a flawless one — gets either rejected at QC or auto-cropped in ways that lose the bottom of the garment. This is the single most common rejection reason for sellers porting catalogs from Amazon to Myntra.

Plan your master capture at 3:4 from the start. Anything else costs you a re-export or a re-shoot.

The five-slot apparel sequence

Myntra requires a minimum of five images per SKU for apparel. Each slot has a specific job, and sellers who skip slots or mismatch content lose ranking, conversion, and sometimes the listing.

Slot 1 — Front on-model (primary)

• Background: Pure white #FFFFFF.
• Model: Gender-matched real human; age-appropriate for the category.
• Framing: Full-length is preferred; minimum head to mid-thigh.
• Pose: Standing, neutral, garment clearly visible front-on.
• Lighting: Soft, even, no harsh shadows on the garment.

Slot 2 — Back on-model

• Background: Light grey with soft shadow (Myntra's house standard for secondary slots).
• Model: Same model as slot 1 for visual continuity.
• Framing: Match the framing of slot 1.
• Pose: Standing, back to camera. Show construction details — back yokes, vents, zippers, decorative hardware.

Slot 3 — Side or three-quarter on-model

• Background: Light grey with soft shadow.
• Framing: Three-quarter view (45°) is generally preferred over a strict profile.
• Purpose: Communicate drape, silhouette, and garment depth.

Slot 4 — Detail / zoom

• Background: Light grey or very tight crop on garment.
• Subject: Fabric weave, print at scale, embroidery, trim, hardware closures.
• Framing: Close-up; the garment fills the frame.
• Why it matters: This slot drives "fabric in real life" trust. Returns spike when slot 4 is missing or low-quality.

Slot 5 — Styled look-shot

• Background: Light grey or in-context (some categories allow lifestyle environments).
• Model: Same or different — show the garment styled with complementary pieces.
• Purpose: Conversion lift — buyers convert better when they can see a look they want.

Footwear, accessories, and jewelry have their own category-specific slot maps that diverge from this five-slot apparel template. Confirm in the relevant Partner Portal SKU sheet before shooting.

Model rules in detail

Myntra is unusually strict about model selection — and this is where many international brands stumble.

• Women's wear must be modeled by a female model. No exceptions for unisex labelling.
• Men's wear must be modeled by a male model.
• Kidswear must be modeled by an age-appropriate child within the size band.
• Headless or cropped-above-the-shoulder shots are prohibited in the primary slot. Real face, real model, full silhouette.
• Visible mannequins are prohibited. Ghost mannequin renders are tolerated in some category sheets but disfavored — Myntra's editorial direction is on-model first.

This combination — gender-matched, full-length, real model, headed, on white — is why Myntra production has historically been more expensive than Amazon. You can't reuse a unisex catalog shot. You can't ghost-mannequin your way around it.

Jewelry on Myntra

Jewelry sits under accessories. The category-specific slot map differs from apparel, and not every standard listed for apparel transfers cleanly:

• Necklaces and earrings typically require an on-bust or on-model shot in the primary slot.
• Pure-white background is still required for primary, even on-model.
• Hallmark, certification, and packaging are appropriate alternate slots.

The category sheet was not directly accessed for this guide. (Unverified — confirm the Myntra accessories SKU template before shooting jewelry catalogs.)

Common rejection reasons

In rough order of how often they kill submissions:

1. Wrong aspect ratio. 1:1 instead of 3:4 is the single most common error.
2. Resolution under 1,000 × 1,200. Auto-rejected.
3. Wrinkled garment. Steam every garment before shooting; QC flags this.
4. Color cast. Mismatched white balance between slots, or a primary that drifts off neutral.
5. Visible mannequin. Either remove or use on-model. No exceptions in the primary slot.
6. Model gender mismatch. Auto-flagged in 2025–2026 by Myntra's catalog AI checks.
7. Lifestyle prop in primary. Bags, sunglasses, hats not part of the SKU should be removed.
8. Blur. Particularly common when shooting at 1/60s under continuous lights.
9. Headless or cropped model in primary. Move headless shots to slot 4 (detail) instead.
10. Light grey instead of pure white in primary. Save the grey for slots 2–5.

Myntra Studio and AI imagery

Myntra Studio — the platform's AI-assisted listing tool — rolled out generative-image acceptance during 2025. The headline rules:

• Same 3:4 / gender-match / full-length rules apply to AI-generated and traditionally-shot imagery.
• Garment fidelity is enforced. Renders that distort weave, print, or trim get caught at QC the same way blurry photos do.
• Provenance is increasingly relevant. Frontier image models that embed SynthID watermarks provide audit-ready proof of AI generation.

In practice, this means a fidelity-first AI photoshoot pipeline can produce Myntra-compliant imagery — gender-matched synthetic models, 3:4 portrait crops, full-length on white — at a fraction of traditional studio cost, provided the underlying pipeline preserves garment detail. Older first-generation diffusion AI tools regularly fail Myntra's QC because of pattern drift on knits and prints. Fidelity-first pipelines built on 2025–2026 frontier image generation preserve fabric texture well enough to clear QC reliably.

Pre-flight checklist

[ ] Aspect ratio = 3:4 portrait
[ ] Resolution ≥ 1,500 × 2,000 (hero) or ≥ 1,080 × 1,440 (minimum)

[ ] sRGB color profile embedded
[ ] File size ≤ 2 MB
[ ] Slot 1: pure white #FFFFFF, full-length, gender-matched real or synthetic model
[ ] Slots 2–4: light grey with soft shadow, same model, back / side / detail
[ ] Slot 5: styled look-shot
[ ] No headless or cropped-above-shoulder shots in slot 1
[ ] Garment steamed; no visible wrinkles
[ ] No mannequin visible in any slot
[ ] No off-SKU props (bags, hats, sunglasses) in primary

What this changes for the production pipeline

Myntra's 3:4 + gender-match + full-length combination historically locked sellers into a more expensive shoot day than what an Amazon-only seller could get away with. You couldn't reuse a unisex catalog. You couldn't ghost-mannequin around the model rule. Real model, real face, real shoot.

The 2026 reality: AI photoshoot platforms with fidelity-first base models render compliant Myntra primary images from a single garment reference at $1–$3 per image. Same garment, multiple model demographics across the gender-match rule, all five slots in 3:4 portrait, full-length, in minutes rather than days.

For Indian fashion brands shipping to Myntra, this is the single biggest cost lever available in 2026.

If you want to see what one source garment renders into across the Myntra five-slot sequence, start a Kraftr shoot — pay-as-you-go credits, 4K renders typically in 60–90 seconds, no subscription. For the outcome view (what a Myntra-compliant catalog looks like in production), see Kraftr for Myntra listings.
