Case study

Taruni × CutSizeGenie: recovering demand from out-of-stock sizes on Shopify.

Taruni is a women’s ethnicwear brand where tailoring/cut-size flows are operationally feasible. Like many fashion brands, Taruni often had inventory in jump sizes (M/XL) while high-intent demand came for S/L — and PDPs showed “Out of stock”. CutSizeGenie helped keep size-led availability stronger using controlled size mapping + safety thresholds.

The problem Taruni faced

Taruni’s customers are highly size-sensitive. Even when a style is popular, a missing size on PDP can cause users to bounce. At the same time, fashion production realities often lead to stronger availability in jump sizes (M/XL). This mismatch creates hidden revenue loss: traffic arrives, the desired size shows OOS, and the customer exits.

Symptom

S/L frequently OOS while M/XL had sellable inventory.

Impact

Higher PDP drop-offs and wasted marketing clicks.

How CutSizeGenie was applied

Taruni enabled size mappings only on collections where tailoring/cut-size workflows were feasible.

  • S borrowed from M
  • L borrowed from XL
  • Enablement was selective (not the whole catalog)

CutSizeGenie’s safety model ensured virtual inventory never became “unlimited”.

  • Minimum stock threshold on source sizes (stop sharing below safe limit)
  • Max-share caps (limit virtual allocations)
  • Optional location-aware behavior for practical fulfilment

When a virtual size sold, the source size inventory was consumed and the order was logged.

  • Ops teams had visibility of “virtual” orders
  • Clear audit trails: which source size was used
  • Reduced confusion during picking and tailoring

Taruni monitored improvements using practical indicators tied to size availability:

  • PDP availability for hero styles
  • Size-led drop-offs vs. in-stock experience
  • Incremental orders influenced by recovered sizes
  • Marketing efficiency improvements (directional ROAS impact)
