VK, together with the Beinopen Institute for the Development of the Fashion Industry, released a game on the Roblox metaverse platform, in which the characters wear clothes of Russian brands and designers, the VK press service said.
Representatives of fashion brands and digital designers worked on creating images for avatars. Users are offered to explore digital islands, roam cyber locations, and run a supercomputer with exclusive outfits.
VK noted that they want to support talented Russian designers by uniting the fashion and digital industries. The main goal of the project is to test a new marketing tool that clothing manufacturers could use to interact with customers.
