Digital Fashion by Printemps is the first 100% virtual clothing label by the Parisian department store and it is being introduced to the world with a 40-piece collection called Magnetic Vibes. This collection was created with digital fashion house Republique and Printemps’ digital teams and it encompasses gender-neutral styles alongside those for men, women, cats and dogs.
Once a virtual item from the collection has been purchased, customers can send the retailer a photo of themselves in tight-fitting clothing and in 72 hours, the photo will be manipulated so that the virtual garment appears on the subject of the photo.
This virtual clothing label from Printemps builds on the success of its first virtual store opened in March 2022.
