What the Format is for

sume-fashion-editorial makes "a finished high-fashion editorial video with a strong pose, dramatic styling, magazine-grade composition, and restrained cinematic motion". The catalog lists fashion campaigns, beauty editorials, luxury lookbooks and cover-story social films.

Party-season fashion is a lookbook: a few dressed-up moments rather than a try-on. It is not for static deliverables, so pair it with a still Format if the shop also needs a cover image.

A call you can run

Send the creative direction in instruction and any product or person image in attachments (images only, up to 30, public HTTPS). The run is one unattended turn, so name everything it needs to choose. generation_spend_cap_usd bounds the generation spend, and a Format without its own cap inherits $400, with $500 the platform maximum.

Pick the Format by the question

Fashion Formats overlap, so choose by what the viewer must learn. Descriptions below come from the Sume catalog.

After the run

A finished run gives primary_output_url and artifacts[]. Media is mirrored to durable media.sume.com URLs, and anyone who holds a URL can open it. Poll the run or pass communication.webhook_url to receive format.run.terminal. To change the result, start a new run with previous_run_id rather than a new brief from zero.
