Epic invests in digital fashion company CLO to promote virtual clothing platform

CTOnews.com, May 12 (Xinhua)-- Epic Games and digital fashion company CLO Virtual Fashion issued a joint statement on Thursday, saying they would buy each other's shares, but did not specify where they would cooperate.

CLO Virtual Fashion, a digital fashion company, has launched fashion design software based on unreal engines and a platform for users to buy and sell virtual clothes.

CTOnews.com translated part of the Epic press release as follows: "there are many challenges in bringing high-quality digital fashion into the real-time virtual world, which is also a creative obstacle faced by many digital fashion designers. I am very excited to see CLO's virtual fashion solutions work with illusory engines to help designers in various industries create realistic and stylish digital clothing.

Epic is not the only company engaged in virtual fashion. DressX, a digital fashion company, launched a clothing line in Roblox and passed the second annual Yuanjie Fashion week in Decentraland earlier this year.

While the hype of meta-cosmos seems to be waning, metasmos advocates like Epic may continue to invest in virtual fashion to attract more users to their virtual worlds.
