Swedish-American fashion brand BLK DNM Today, they unveiled an unprecedented innovation in connected fashion: the launch of BLK DNM Society , which combines blockchain-driven hardware and software within its apparel, allowing garments to exist simultaneously in both the physical and virtual realms, effectively 'twinning' each piece through modern tech.
BLK DNM Society, leveraging cutting-edge designs from a blockchain visionary and the brand's owner, aims to assign a distinctive and traceable identity to every article of clothing, rewarding ethical practices and empowering consumers with influence over the brand. ChromaWay Each garment will be equipped with blockchain-powered 'digital garment ID' microchips, offering it a unique identity and historical record.
- These microchips act as the core technological foundation of BLK DNM Society, which not only launches alongside this initiative but also incentivizes sustainable ownership and behavior.
- The first showcase of this innovative tech will be featured in BLK DNM’s Fall/Winter 2023 collection.
- Future collections will include clothing items embedded with a discreet ‘digital garment ID’ chip, assigning each physical piece a unique and accessible identity. Some of the exciting features of these digital IDs include:
The Hardware: Digital Garment IDs
Confirmation that the garment is authentic, effectively eliminating counterfeits.
- Incentives for caring for and preserving clothing over long periods, such as refurbishing and opting for second-hand purchases.
- An individual history tracker for each garment encompassing previous owners, events attended, repairs made, and changes, allowing the item to gather both sentimental and market value as time passes.
- Functioning as digital entry passes to exclusive events.
- Offering access and voting privileges in the BLK DNM Society.
- The digital garment IDs represent the inaugural hardware of BLK DNM Society, which is set to launch simultaneously. This first-ever instance of connected fashion creates a community of BLK DNM enthusiasts who are interconnected through their physical apparel, earning rewards for responsible actions and empowering them with voting rights on significant brand matters, embarking on a groundbreaking path to decentralizing the governance of a fashion brand.
BLK DNM Society
Every digital garment ID will create a 'digital reflection' of its physical counterpart: a virtual twin documenting the item’s history and relevance in BLK DNM Society. This digital twin can additionally be showcased in various metaverses, especially appealing to younger audiences who value their identities across both physical and virtual landscapes.
The unveiling of digital garment IDs is set for BLK DNM’s Fall/Winter event in Paris on June 21st. Initially, these special chips will be integrated only into leather pieces, while later collections will expand the use of blockchain-enabled technology into a wider array of items within the BLK DNM Society.
