BEAMS" has provided the following information about this project
With e-sports attracting increasing attention these days, we started this project with the hope of providing new value and possibilities in "fashion x gaming".
In particular, we thought that designing apparel for avatars to wear in VR could enliven the e-sports industry in a way that BEAMS had never done before. We also feel that the official T-shirts will play an important role in creating a sense of unity at the event. We hope that the event will also offer a lifestyle of "enjoying fashion" to the many people who love games so much.
We hope that this event will provide an opportunity to introduce BEAMS to a wide range of people, especially Generation Z, who are the players and viewers of e-sports.
This new digital merchandising system, in which customers can actually purchase the designs worn by their avatars in the V-RAGE space, is a major point of this project, and we believe it is a new system of communication with customers that will lead to future development. The design of the products was created by BEAMS designers with a techno theme.
