Last July, Sunnei's virtual models had a blast dancing the Macarena for the digital presentation of the first part of the Italian brand's Spring-Summer 2021 collection (more info in this Boudoir Numérique article). It was the occasion to unveil its Canvas virtual reality platform, allowing certain retailers around the world to digitally customize the brand's signature pieces in shapes, cuts and fabrics, in order to have a selection of exclusive outfits in their sales points.
During this new menswear edition of Milan fashion week, the designers of Sunnei, Loris Messina and Simone Rizzo, have decided to continue the momentum of their Canvas project, by unveiling, on January 17, a video game for their Fall-Winter 2021/2022 collection.
A character who sends laser beams, another who dodges projectiles, a flying saucer from outer space and objects that fall from the ceiling ..., the video game allows you to choose different avatars to play, wearing outfits from the new Sunnei F-H 21/22 collection (images below : © Sunnei).
The video game makes it possible to discover all the silhouettes of the second Canvas collection, worn by computer-generated fashion models (images below : © Sunnei).
