COME JOIN US! 🖇🎓 “the organization also launched its IRL x URL Academy to teach designers around the world how to translate their garments into virtual items. “ Also Included in Retail’s Next Frontiers: A Strategic Guide To 2022 @forbes thank you for including us @katiebaroncox “We wanted to deliver a metaverse experience that also democratized the red carpet, democratizing the notion of traditional red carpet moments, and merging the worlds of IRL x URL,” explained Elliott Young. “It was designed to be worn and paired on top of other garments.” The virtual piece was later sold as an NFT. “The IoDF team sees meta-fashion not only as a place for designers to play with creativity, but as a vehicle for making a more inclusive and representative fashion industry.” “The fashion industry is a big beast, with hierarchy structures that largely dominate entry level access. The digital arena is a wonderful community of free thinkers, and we wanted to shape that energy into a concise space, where those regardless of age, race, ability and gender could step into a career pathway of digital making,” added Young.
