Under review. This page is published while we check it against the live app, so some details may have changed.

Home is the first page you see after you sign in. It gets you into your work quickly: start something new, jump back into what you were editing, or check where your styles stand.

How you arrive on Home

After sign-in, Vestis Labs opens Home for the brand you used last. If that brand is no longer available to you, it opens the first active brand on your account. If your account has no active brand, the page shows No brands found. To change brand later, see Managing multiple brands.

What is on Home

From top to bottom, the page can show the following. Some blocks only appear for some users or brands.

  • Welcome to Vestis Labs! setup card, with Start Setup or Continue Setup. See Guided tour and setup.
  • Getting Started progress card, with Start Guided Tour or Continue Guided Tour. See Guided tour and setup.
  • Start Managing Your Collections with AI, three beta shortcuts.
  • Quick Actions, three manual shortcuts.
  • Continue Where You Left Off, your recent work.
  • Widgets added by your admins.
  • Three status cards: Active Project, Summary and Status Summaries.

Start managing your collections with AI

This row appears only when the AI collection and style feature is switched on for your brand. Each card is marked Beta.

  1. Choose a shortcut

    Click Create A Collection, Create A Style or Create A Library Item.

  2. Pick a collection for a style

    For Create A Style, the Create Style With AI window asks you to Choose a Collection. Select the collection where the new style should go. If your brand has no collection yet, the collection creation window opens first.

You continue in the AI window for that item. Review what it generates and refine it by hand. Under the cards, Or start your collections and styles manually leads to Quick Actions.

Quick Actions

Quick Actions are the manual way to create core records. Each card also has a Watch video link that opens a short walkthrough in a new tab.

  • Create Collection opens the new collection page.
  • Create Style opens a Create Style window where you Choose a Collection. If you have no collections yet, it opens the Collection page instead.
  • Materials Library opens the page to create a new library item.

Continue where you left off

This block lists up to four of the items you edited most recently, each with Edited and how long ago, for example Edited 2 hours ago. It can show styles, collections, materials library items, measurements and settings pages. Click a card to return to the exact place you left, for a style that includes the tab you were on, such as Costs or Bill of Material. The block is hidden if you have no recent activity.

Status cards

Three cards summarise your styles.

  • Active Project shows the number of Collection and Styles.
  • Summary shows Styles Under Development and Style Completed.
  • Status Summaries shows how many styles are at each milestone, for example Style created, Style submitted, Style approved, prototype, 3D sample, tech pack and visualisation approvals, and Style completed. Milestones with no styles are left out.

Customise the Home widgets

Admins can add text and video widgets to Home, for example reminders or training videos. Only users with the Admin role see the Customize button.

  1. Click "Customize"

    Click Customize above the status cards.

  2. Click "Add Widget"

    Click Add Widget and select Text or Video.

  3. Write the content

    Type over the widget title and the text under it. For a video, click the pencil icon on the widget and enter a Youtube Embed URL. The widget shows Please provide a Youtube Embed URL to admins until you do, and This video is not available for public viewing to everyone.

  4. Arrange the widgets

    Drag a widget to move it. The trash icon, labelled Delete widget, removes it after you confirm the Delete Widget dialog.

  5. Click "Save"

    Click Save to publish. Changes are not saved until you do. Click Discard and confirm Discard Changes to throw them away.
