The brand offers digital fashion as a means for self-expression in the metaverse and it has established itself on open-world platforms Roblox and Second Life. Increasingly, Gen Z is building a digital wardrobe alongside a physical one, and each has the potential to inspire the other.

This financing will help the digital-first fashion brand expand its presence in the metaverse, support female designs and aesthetics in an industry that's largely male-dominated, and help to grow the brand's offering beyond fashion and into accessories, makeup and more.
