Have a question... does anyone know how to take a dress for example, that is damaged in a photo and take another dress from a photo online and "superimpose or blend one into another.. Even if to get the "shape" of the dress for rebuilding the damaged one.

I hope I've made myself clear. I don't have any examples to provide, just wondering if and how this could be accomplished
Thanks for the help

Michelle, there are a number of ways to do this. One option would be to:

- make a selection of your damaged dress and save it (Select>Save Selection). [Example shown here only of a dress with no background].

- Find a pattern of another dress or material that will completely cover the damaged dress.

- Load your selection of the damaged dress. Select the replacement dress or material from its image and do a Edit>Copy. Then with the damaged dress layer active and the selection of the dress active, do a Edit>"Paste Into" which has a shortcut Ctrl+Alt+V.

The new pattern will only fill the selected area.

Thanks for the help. Would this work if I found a photo of a dress online?

The technique will work with any image. However, just to be clear, if you need to overlay the new dress and are trying to get its parts to match the damaged dress , then you might need to use one or more of the transform tools to stretch or shrink certain areas.

Thanks again for the help Murray!
