Abstract: Previous virtual try-on methods have employed ControlNet architecture in exemplar-based inpainting diffusion models to guide the generation of try-on images, preserving the garment's features and enhancing the realism of the generated images. While these methods have maintained the identity of the garment and improved the naturalness of the generated images, they still face the following limitations: (1) For garments with complex features, such as intricate text, patterns, and uncommon styles, they struggle to retain these detailed features in the generated try-on images. (2) They are limited to generating try-on images at a maximum resolution of 1K, which may not meet the demands of real-world scenarios, where higher resolutions might be required. To address the aforementioned issues, in this paper, we propose a Cascaded Diffusion Model for virtual try-on to enhance both image controllability and resolution. We call it CDM-VTON. Specifically, we design two diffusion models: the Multi-Conditioned Diffusion Model (MC-DM) and the Super-Resolution Diffusion Model (SR-DM). The former generates low-resolution try-on images while preserving the garment's complex features, and the latter enhances the resolution of these images. Additionally, we incorporate a multi-control integration module in the MC-DM, which injects multiple control conditions into a frozen denoising U-Net to ensure that the generated try-on images retain complex garment features. Our experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms previous approaches in preserving garment details and generating authentic virtual try-on images, both qualitatively and quantitatively.
