Lustr Fashion Finder

This new shopping guide launched for Independent Retail Week, which is currently running in New York through November 20, and gives fashionistas not only what's in stock in the city's stores but also nearby promotions and fashion events based on your postal code. The free application is available for New York only at present.

Baby Phat Cam

The streetstyle label turns users into dress-up dolls with this app that lets you choose looks from Kimora Lee Simmons' collections and virtually try them on by using your own uploaded photos.

Easy Stitch

Providing visual and written instructions, Easy Stitch gives step-by-step instructions for embroidery, knitting and crocheting. All the instructions are stored with the app (which costs $2.99 in the US iTunes store), so there's no need for the internet.

A simple interface makes it easy to navigate through the website's offer, with shoppers being able to search and buy items they might have seen in store. Existing online shopping carts can also be accessed. Bebe ships worldwide.

StyleCaster

Based on your current geographical location, the StyleCaster team sends you daily suggestions for weather-appropriate outfits. This truly international application also sends you worldwide style news and individual looks posted by the StyleCaster online community.

Stylish Girl

This personal shopper device lets you mix and match your own wardrobe with what's offered in stores on the go. It also has a 'wishlist' function that filters new product releases for your personal preferences.

Gucci

The Italian luxe brand's application features push notifications of product launches and new designer collaborations as well as music playlists by producer Mark Ronson or Gucci's creative director Frida Giannini. It also lets you create your own music mix and share it on social networking sites.

Having recently revealed her new slogan 'The Democratization of Fashion' during New York Fashion Week, the designer proves a woman of her word: with her new iPhone app, shoppers can browse her clothes ranges for Walmart (prices around $20) and the new Norma Kamalibay collection for eBay ($250).

Tommy Hilfiger (Art Technology Group)

One of Lauren's main competitors, all-American brand Tommy Hilfiger, has launched an application that connects virtual and in-store shopping, meaning that customers can buy a desired item online if it is not available in-store or check where they can try on an item that they have come across online.

Jaeger-LeCoultre

The luxury watchmaker does not only give access to its full collection but also invites customers to its 'watchmaking school,' also demonstrating the skills of the brand's gem-setters and engravers.

Rue La La

Designer sales on the website start daily at 11am ET, and items sell out fast, so it only makes sense that Rue La La is now also available on the iPhone (navigate to m.ruelala.com) for all those shoppers who are nowhere near a computer at that time. Store all your details beforehand to save extra time.
