A limited VR fashion collection for a virtual world
During the Spring 2023 at Parsons, I created several ready-to-wear digital fashion pieces to be showcased and sold in Roblox using Blender and Substance Painter .
Digital fashion gives fashion designers the ability to create entirely sustainable, inclusive and immersive designs— fantastical garments that would otherwise be impossible to create in a physical world.
Below are the media interviews/coverage about my projects and the class itself, as well as my designs.

Gothic-inspired outfit
This gothic inspired outfit was a collaboration between Lea Melendez and I. Lea focused on the Jacket component and I focused on the Bodysuit. We designed and created the garments individually— we wanted to create a cohesive look.
Lava Bustier Top
Inspired by the elements, I wanted to create a bustier shirt that would be impossible to create in real life. I created the mesh of a ruffled bustier top, and textured it to look like molten rock.
