They can use this technology to generate a model to fit a particular user profile. Filter bubbles are going to get even better! Or maybe they can ask user to upload his photo and feed that as a prior to the model so it can generate visuals of that person wearing different dresses. That would be cool!

- very accurate measurements of your body
- a very accurate representation of the materials used in that piece of clothing, including weight, tensile strength etc.
- a very accurate physics simulation matching the materials to your body measurements
The technology showcased here does nothing similar. It could perhaps generate pictures of what someone who looks sort of similar to your general body shape, as seen in your pictures, looks in clothes. It would be no better than what you currently have: look at the picture, and try to guess how well that fits your actual body.
Even worse, you would completely miss details like "the material is very stretchy, it looks good on the model's abs but it might look bad on my belly fat" because the AI would NOT be doing a simulation of how that clothing actually fits a human body - it's always producing an idealized simulation.
Edit: and to make this clear, I'm not saying that "the AI can't do that yet". I'm saying that the technique they are using can't achieve the goal you are talking about. There is nowhere near enough detail in pictures of clothing to get the kind of simulation you are looking for.
