Press release - 5 June 2024
English / French
Braw Haus, DRESSX, and bem.builders team up to launch a multiplayer experience dedicated to the fashion community: The Art of Runway. Available for free on the gaming platform The Sandbox from Monday, 3 June 2024, this immersive experience features a speedrun contest, fashion collections, an art gallery, a shop, and games promoting sustainable fashion.
Art, gaming, and shopping
Within the colourful rocky mountains, a new kind of fashion show is happening. The Art of Runway is showcasing new and established talents, digital artists, and fashion collections.
A place for discovery and shopping, the experience is also dedicated to social gaming. The fashion village features a whole team of professionals (dressmaker, casting director, model...) providing fashion and sustainable tips in the form of minigames.
Speedrun contest
To the heart of The Art of Runway is the speedrun contest. Players can choose among three difficulty levels to complete the speedrun. Underwater, on the floor or in the air, take part in the steps of a fashion show, from the backstage to the final runway, while enjoying surreal landscapes. Addressing fashion in surprising ways, the speedrun quests explore the creative power of this industry.
The fastest players to the speedrun will earn exclusive rewards, including limited edition wearables designed by artists. The DRESSX Discord manages the contest: https://discord.gg/dressx-digital-community-797156111345778720
Brands and artists activation
The experience is designed to be regularly updated in order to promote various fashion talents and brands. Braw Haus will present a renewed selection of digital artists, while brands will be able to present and sell their fashion collections in-game.
The wearable shop, the art gallery, the billboards, the mechanics, and texts adapt to the activations. Blending art, architecture, and gaming, The Art of Runway gives a new impetus to fashion, by gathering collectors, buyers, gamers, fashion lovers, and designers.
