Import Instagram and Pinterest Posts into an AI Fashion Studio
The photos a fashion brand has already posted are its best references: the looks that worked, the settings that fit the brand, the products customers saw. On The New Black AI you can import them straight from your accounts into the studio, without downloading anything. Press Upload, pick Instagram, Facebook, X, Pinterest or YouTube, tick the posts you want, and they land in your library, ready to become a new product photo, a video or a variation.

How it works
Press Upload
The Upload button opens the same window everywhere: in the studio grid, in the Library and in From Studio. Next to From computer, a tab for each platform: Instagram, Shopify, Facebook, X, Pinterest and YouTube. The first time, a tab asks you to connect the account in Connectors; after that it opens on your posts.
Tick the posts you want
Your posts show as a grid, newest first, and you scroll back in time to load older ones. On Pinterest you pick the board above the grid, or keep All my pins. One selection runs across the tabs, so you can take three Instagram posts and two pins in the same import.
Create from them
The files land in the view open behind the window, which the window's title names. From there they work like any picture of yours: a reference for a new product photo, the start of a video, a model or a setting to keep across a collection.
What comes in from each platform
| Platform | What you can import |
|---|---|
| Photos and videos, whole; a carousel brings every one of its files | |
| Shopify | The pictures and videos of your store's files |
| The pictures of your Page's posts | |
| X | The pictures of your posts |
| Your pins, board by board | |
| YouTube | The cover of each video |
| TikTok | Coming soon |
An import is always a copy in your library, never a link: if the post is deleted later, your file stays. Where only photos are accepted, videos are greyed in the grid.
Why reuse your own posts
A brand's feed is a record of what its customers already liked. Importing it turns that record into material: the model and the light of your best performing post become the reference for the next product, the setting of last season's campaign carries the new collection, a pin board of ideas becomes the brief of a design. It also keeps the brand consistent, because the new visuals start from the old ones instead of from a blank prompt.
Mila, the AI agent included in every account, can do the same on request: ask her to bring in your last Instagram posts or a Pinterest board, and she imports them with the same tool.
How many imports
Imports count like every upload of your library, over 30 days: 200 on Starter, 500 on Pro, 2,000 on Business and 5,000 on Enterprise, and 100 with a credit pack alone. Without a plan or a pack, an account can import ten images. Importing costs no credits; generating from the imported pictures costs the usual credits of the workflow you choose.
Frequently asked questions
Can I import my Instagram posts into The New Black AI?+
Yes. Connect Instagram once in Connectors, press Upload, open the Instagram tab and tick the posts. Photos and videos come in whole, and a carousel brings each of its files.
Can I import a Pinterest board?+
Yes. In the Pinterest tab, choose the board above the grid, or keep All my pins, then tick the pins you want.
Does it work with TikTok?+
Not yet. The TikTok tab reads Coming soon until the connection can read your videos.
Do imports cost credits?+
No. Importing is free and counts toward the upload ceiling of your plan over 30 days. Credits are spent only when you generate from the pictures.
What happens if I delete the original post?+
Nothing changes in the studio: an import is a copy stored in your library, not a link to the post.
Where do the imported files go?+
Into the view open behind the Upload window, named in its title: the studio grid, the Library or From Studio.
