Portuguese designer Alexandra Moura accepted Fly London’s challenge to design four skins – part of a capsule collection – which introduce the footwear brand to the metaverse.
The initiative reflects the portuguese brand’s desire to reach a younger audience, modernizing its identity and being one step ahead in the fashion industry trends.
The bet on virtual reality is also made in partnership with the cyber-physical systems department of IPCA – Polytechnic Institute of Cávado and Ave -, allowing, with the junction of the three national entities, to create an ideal environment, designed in line with the bold and disruptive identity of Fly London and bringing elements such as the unmistakable fly that accompanies the motto “Don’t Walk, Fly”.
Through the Roblox platform, four mini-games are made available (parkour, survival runner, basketball and Fly Man) and a virtual store with London inspiration, which also incorporates representations of some monuments and world landmarks. The virtual store displays four mannequins with different skins, and players can purchase these skins using FlyPoints, which can be accumulated in the various mini-games.
