# Change Clothes Color > To change clothes color in a video, upload the clip to Kenerate Genjutsu, choose Change outfit and write the garment and the new colour: "make her jacket deep emerald green, same jacket". Motion, face and camera stay. For a photo, paint over the garment in the image editor's Change Region and type the colour.

One garment in a still — paint it with Change Region and name the colour. ## Steps 1. Video or photo? — Clips go to Genjutsu; stills go to the AI image editor. 2. Upload and choose Change outfit — MP4, MOV, WebM or M4V up to about 100 MB. Change outfit is the mode that keeps the person and changes only clothing. 3. Write garment + colour + what stays — "Make the hoodie burgundy — same hoodie, same fit, keep the white drawstrings." Saying 'same garment' stops a redesign. 4. Add a swatch if the shade matters — A photo of the fabric or a colour card as @image1: "the colour of @image1". 5. Compare and download — Check the synced compare view frame by frame, then download the MP4. ## In depth ### A recolour is a regeneration, not a tint Classic editors shift hues on pixels. Genjutsu re-renders the garment in the new colour across every frame and lets the clip's light fall on it, which is why highlights and shadows look right — and why you should say "same garment", or the engine may also change the cut. In the image editor, Change Region does the same for the painted area only. ### Naming colours the engine understands Plain names usually work better than codes: describe the colour the way you'd describe it to a tailor. - A family plus a shade: "deep burgundy", "pale sage". - A material cue: "matte", "satin sheen", "washed denim". - A reference when it's critical: a swatch photo as @image1. - Relative nudges for reruns: "warmer", "one shade darker". ### Prints, stripes and two-tone garments Patterns are where recolours fail most: the engine may simplify a fine print. Say which colour in the pattern changes — "turn the red stripes navy, keep the white" — and keep the rest. If the print must stay pixel-exact, a photo recolour with Change Region over just the coloured areas gives more control than a video run. ## FAQ Q: Can AI change the color of clothes in a video? A: Yes. In Kenerate Genjutsu, choose Change outfit, describe the garment and its new colour, and the engine re-renders the clip with that piece recoloured while keeping the person's face, motion, expressions and the camera. Clips run 2–15 seconds on the Kenerate tiers or 4–30 seconds on Seedance 2.5, and the original audio is kept by default. Q: How do I change the color of one garment in a photo? A: Open the AI image editor, pick Change Region, paint over the garment and type what should appear there — "the same shirt in sage green". AI Edit works too with a sentence such as "make her dress navy blue". Avoid Recolor and the Hue slider for this: they shift the whole picture, including skin and background. Q: Will the fabric, folds and pattern stay the same? A: That's the goal of Change outfit: keep the garment's cut and let the fabric fold and move with the body. Say what to keep — "same knit texture, keep the white stripes" — because the engine is regenerating the garment, not tinting pixels. Check shiny and patterned fabrics closely in the compare view. Q: Can I match an exact brand color? A: You can get close, not guaranteed exact. Name the shade in words and add a photo of the colour — a fabric swatch or a product in that colour — as @image1. The result is generated and then lit by the clip's own light, so judge it on screen and rerun with a nudge such as "slightly warmer" if needed. Q: Why not just use a hue filter? A: A hue shift changes every pixel of that colour family, so skin, walls and props drift too, and in video it ignores which garment is which. An AI recolour targets the garment you name and keeps the rest of the frame — in the image editor by painting the area, in Genjutsu by describing it. Q: Can I change several clothing colors at once? A: Yes, name each piece and its colour in one prompt: "jacket in mustard, trousers in charcoal, keep the shirt white". The more pieces you change in one run, the more the engine has to keep straight, so for a precise result change the most important garment first and run again on the result. Q: Is it OK to recolor someone's clothes in a video? A: Usually it's harmless, but rights and consent still apply. Edit footage you own or are licensed to use, with the permission of the people in it, and never change real people's clothing to embarrass, mislead or impersonate them. Label edited clips when the colour matters to a buyer, such as product listings. ## Related pages - AI Video Editor: https://kenerateai.com/ai-video-editor - AI clothes changer: https://kenerateai.com/ai-clothes-changer - Clothes swap AI: https://kenerateai.com/clothes-swap-ai - AI Image Editor: https://kenerateai.com/ai-image-editor - AI hair colour changer: https://kenerateai.com/ai-hair-color-changer ## Sources - Kenerate Genjutsu (video editor): https://kenerateai.com/app/genjutsu - Kenerate AI image editor (Edit Studio): https://kenerateai.com/app/edit
