MaxMara has announced that its resort 2023 collection will be showcased at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, Portugal. The Gulbenkian, as it is more commonly known, is a venue dedicated to the promotion of the arts, philanthropy, science, and education.

On June 28, the show will take place. Meanwhile, on June 19, Italian fashion label Moschino will present its spring/summer 2023 male collection in Milan, in what will be both a new venue and a homecoming.

Jeremy Scott, the creative director, recently showed collections in New York. Moschino hasn’t shown in Italy since January 2018, signaling a major shift in the brand’s approach to its Italian clientele. As more designers feel free to go beyond border boundaries, these announcements are expected to be the first in a wave.

This follows Chanel and Giorgio Armani’s recent appearances in the UAE, when they presented their cruise 2021 and spring/summer 2021 collections, respectively, in late 2021. Prada utilized the same strategy of exhibiting twice, repeating their spring/summer 2022 women’s show in both Milan and Shanghai.

With collaborative efforts to design future characters within the metaverse, the artwork will underline the mask of a puma. Splash stands out as the appropriate collaborator in this project, blending technology and fashion-driven art, as an award-winning, sustainability-focused, and forward-thinking fashion company.

The Celestial Collection is made up of characters whose designs are inspired by the elements and symbolize celestial bodies in the universe, such as the sun, moon, planets, stars, constellations, and more, according to a joint press statement from the two companies.

Character designs are influenced by manga and anime, with graphic components symbolized and a Y2K look. With captivating artwork and unique designs, the samurai sword defines each character’s personality.

3D avatars will be among the collection’s future developments, with masks serving as the symbolic attribute that unites fashion and ‘Gen2’ Puma Punks. The partnership will be able to go into the metaverse during this period.

Members receive access to advantages after purchasing an NFT collaboration, including a digital access card that grants access to the inner circle of fashion shows, upcoming projects, and the chance to mint and purchase during pre-sale. All NFT collectors will receive a Discord ‘Splash’ badge and will be able to rise up to the OG rank of ‘Celestial’ by being an active member.

3D card collections, game development, a fully developed and semi-dystopian storyline: ‘The Celestials,’ immersive audio and visual experience that features original soundtracks and unique elements to the Celestial Collection, 3D environments, 3D character creation, and VR characters that will become part of the collection’s world are all part of the Bored Puma X Splash collaboration.
