CATWALK MODE

Fashion My Metaverse

The theme of the collection “No One is Illegal II” pays homage to displacement of people due to conflict from around the world. The digital twinning and augmented reality of some pieces makes reference through satire of “Metaverse Refugees”

Our catwalk presentation will embody inspiration across a melting pot of cultures which influence fashion today. References such at cyber fits, fashion kink, afro ethnic, Bohemian are all embezzled in this collection of upcyled and repurposed fashion.

A collection of 24 looks shows just how we can reduce fashion overconsumption by repurposing garments into one of one unique sentimental pieces.

But the most important is that we use digitalisation for more than 4 years to make fashion more sustainable and affordable not only in Ukraine but worldwide, to vanish borders and help people try on couture items digitally from any spot of the world anytime. We use Instagram AR filters for that and make semi-digital clothing, real garments that have additional animated look powered by Instagram AR on any mobile phone.

As we observe the metamorphosis from IRL to digital fashion in the Metaverse it’s important to provide better tech access and critical thinking around this new growing sector.

 

The dissemination of vocabulary and the technical process around Web3 must be made more accessible for underrepresented creatives. As we aim to promote some of the benefits of Web3 for creatives we also hope to demystify the process accelerate creatives seeking to enter the space.

Panel  – One hour 30 mins panel
