FW2023
Weaving into the Metaverse
Inspired by the futuristic utopian vision of a new Hong Kong, a place where Web3, blockchain, gaming worlds and immersive experiences cohabitate and collaborate, Vivienne weaves her physical world with virtual NFTs/PFPs to bring harmony and unite communities.
Infusing warmth, depth and history of the fashion world into the virtual world, Vivienne sees interoperability for both the Web3 and our natural world. She is transferring new ways to use technology with access to special events and opportunities. Giving birth to a new hope of possibilities.
Including the simple yet powerful pictograms of China’s earliest language, Oracle Bone Script, Vivienne Tam has taken these ancient symbols and reinterpreted them for the 21st century.
"From the beginning of civilization humanity has used pictures to communicate and document our history. Now, new generations use pictures to create new communities, currencies, environments and even worlds.” - Vivienne Tam
Vivienne gives a nod to Yayoi Kusama, through the 12 Zodiac Animals. Colorful patterns include Ghanaian Adinkra Symbols, carrying powerful messages, such as the eye for oneness with the universe, the sun and moon representing harmony, and layered circles depicting greatness and leadership.
Unconventional patchwork blazers get some pop and playful character with adornments of puffy quilted NFTs.
The color palette is earthy, evoking the ancient past, fused with bright shades from nature and the earth, and neon highlights from the future.
The zebra faux fur jacket and matching printed leggings, together with animal symbols of the oracle bones, embody the abstraction of worldly animals, interlaced with newly created futuristic animals from the Metaverse, throughout the show.
A prominent spotlight of the collection is a single print combining Tam’s favorite NFTs from BAYC, MAYC, Mocaverse, Cool Cats, Meebits, Cyberkongz, Crypto Punks and more, all coming together to the graphical map of Hong Kong. Tam, like many Web3 visionaries, believes that NFTs will be traveling between different Metaverses, working together while empowering one another.
In the past the world inspired us, now people and technology create worlds that inspire themselves, and others.
