Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
As-salāmu ʿalaykum wa-raḥmatullāhi wa-barakātuh
It is not permissible to view the ladies on the internet to select clothing designs for your wife.
You may select the designs by accompanying your wife when she shops for her clothes.
And Allah Taʿālā Knows Best
