New Look Fashion

UK retailer New Look has launched an official iPhone app, which complements its existing mobile website. Developed by MIG, the new app includes information on products, offers and a store-finder. However, there's also a barcode-scanning feature designed to be used in-store to find out more about individual clothing items. Meanwhile, the app connects to New Look's m-commerce site to actually buy items.
