Miami Fashion Week (MIAFW) announced its metaverse debut with the launch of L’atelier by MIAFW, a digital retail and educational concept that allows fashion enthusiasts to gather in the metaverse, learn about sustainability, attend events and discover the latest fashion.
The fashion week was held from May 31 – June 5 and included a series of in-person and digital events that simultaneously took place in Miami and in the metaverse. Missoni and Naeem Khan were some of the brands that showcased their collections in physical runway shows, while a Decentraland based metaverse runway show took place on June 3 featuring digital fashion from a Dressx and MTA Kollectiff collaboration. These activations included AR looks from Dressx for guests of the week’s physical events. Guests were also able to explore the virtual building and the world of AR fashion. The activations that took place were carried out by The Metaverse Group, a Tokens.com affiliated company.
“MIAFW has always been at the forefront of sustainability and technology. The future of fashion is digital, and with this year’s introduction of L’atelier by MIAFW we were able to bring this experience to fashion lovers around the world,” said Lourdes Fernandez-Velasco, MIAFW creative director.
