What do the participants say? Dundas founder Evangelo Bousis says:

“The point of the metaverse is to dream and do these fantastical looks that you can't wear in real life.”

Shashi Menon, the founder of UNXD, said:

“Some brands are naturally more ready than others to leap in, whereas others want to monitor things before entering. That’s to be expected.”

What preceded it? In October 2021, Dolce & Gabbana sold a series of NFTs worth about $6 million, created in collaboration with UNXD. And on February 5, 2022, the first wedding ceremony was held in the Decentraland metaverse.
