Chinese 'Instagram' goes into virtual fashion with NFT clothing
Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu is testing niche services for fashion bloggers who want to showcase their virtual clothing.
According to Forkast, the idea is this: you can send the designer a unique NFT virtual dress code, and then provide a photo of yourself, which the designer uses to show how you “wear” the dress.
At the same time, you need to pose as if you are actually wearing this dress, and the photo the photo needs to be high definition.
On the platform, you can find virtual shoes, earrings, bags, and even manicures. Prices for such virtual costumes on Xiaohongshu can start from 20 yuan (about $3) for a headpiece to 5,000 yuan (about $745) for a sci-fi dress.
