A method for execution by a computing device of a recommendation system includes receiving, from a user computing device associated with a user, a selection of one or more images from one or more selectable image groups to produce a subset of images, where each image of the subset of images has an individual image vector. The method further includes combining the individual image vector of each image of the subset of images to produce a preliminary input vector. The method further includes correlating the preliminary input vector with a first set of items of one or more databases of items based on the preliminary input vector and a corresponding item vector for each of the first set of items. The method further includes generating a representation of the first set of items for displaying on a display of the user computing device.
