The Polyvore community began when its originator was redesigning the interior of his home.

He and his wife made up sets with color swatches and images clipped from magazines. They placed them together and created what was thought of then as mood boards.

Since then the idea has blown out and taken off.

Polyvore allowed its users to create virtual mood boards, which quickly became known as “sets”.

This allowed them to add products into a shared categories with other users who found inspiration through comments and likes.

Because of the visual nature of design sets Polyvore was mostly used to build sets in the areas of fashion, beauty, home decoration, and fashion accessories.
