AVATA and MAD Global join forces to present Picnic, a weekend celebration of digital fashion and art during London’s Fashion Week this September. The three day event will explore the rise of digital fashion and include two evening events alongside a 12hr day of panel discussions, presentations and curated digital fashion and art shows from an international selection of leading digital artists. The Digital Fashion Weekend brings together the world’s leading designers, artists and thought-leaders from the digital and web3 fashion and art space.
Housed in W1 Immersive in East London,, the newly refurbished venue on Timber Street features high quality digital LED screens that immerse the viewer in 180’ & 23 meters of digital content alongside a networking and conference space. The space launches on Friday the 16th with a party brought to you by Bloom Twins, an Ukrainian-born English pop music group made up of twin sisters Anna and Sonia Kuprienko.
Bloom Twins’ will be showcasing their clothing line “Gussi” created with Flyp.Space where all profits go to help Ukraine through a selected and trusted charity “We Help Ukrainians”, including a reusable bottle in partnership with Ocean Bottle. The night will include a 25-minute live performance from Bloom Twins where they will exclusively premier their new single co-written with the X Ambassadors, called “Beats for Bombs” along with their “Gussi” line which can be tried on in augmented reality on the full-length DressX digital mirror.
On Saturday, AVATA and MAD Global kick off the PICNIC weekend with an exclusive evening party featuring live Dj’s, and a special digital fashion experience. Sunday expect an all day visual feast unlike any traditional fashion event, with 12hrs of curated digital content showcasing digital collections by today’s finest international artists and fashion designers pioneering the web3 space such as Fabricant, Artisant, Braw Haws, Neo Deluxe, Stephy Fung to name a few.
