Meta announced that it was launching a designer digital clothing store that will allow users to purchase pieces of clothing for their avatars in its metaverse. The company believes that clothing and other accessories will become an important part of the users’ identity expression and that this will entice them to spend money on digital clothes that will be wearable on all Meta’s apps, including Facebook and Instagram.

Meta to Sell Metaverse Clothing

With the rise of the metaverse, an alternative and digital take of our world, companies have begun to include industries like clothing to capitalize on the earnings that the need for expression of metaverse users can produce. One of these companies is Meta, which has recently announced the launch of a digital clothing store, named the “Meta Avatars Store,” that will allow users to purchase clothing of different brands to dress their metaverse avatars.

The store, which will be rolling to different markets this week, will feature digital designs created by Balenciaga, Prada, and Thom Browne, and will be available for Meta’s avatars on Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger. The pricing for each one of the pieces of clothes available has still not been revealed.
