Fashion companies very rarely consider disabled people for their physical clothing as it is, and I’ve noticed a lot of these digital tools and customized styling things online that simply don’t work for us at all. If this company-whether I like them or not-claims to be all about individuality and self expression, then I would hope that they’re keeping these things in mind, but I doubt it. :p

it's hilarious how the main way they're advertising the digital clothes on tiktok is having captions that say "i wish i could wear this in real life :("

I'm studying to be a computer science major. AI isn't the magical future people think it is. It's just like polymer science or quantum mechanics, where people saw them and basically saw them as a magic that could do anything. The only difference is that AI is actually widely accessible and so many people that aren't, in the nicest way possible, intelligent enough think that AI can magic anything they want. AI cannot make anything original, there's going to be a certain point when what I've heard funnily called "AI inbreeding" where ugly AI images will be scanned by AI, creating a cycle of AI "content" creating by looking at other AI content. AI can be great, I've used it as a great study tool and to bounce ideas off of, but using it to steal artists work and thinking that makes you an innovator will not end well because people that do that aren't actually smart enough to realize that it takes an actual person to make ideas. AIs can't generate new ideas. It's like a calculator, a calculator is a great tool but if an idiot is handling it they're not going to be able to solve complex math because they don't and have never tried to understand the fundamentals behind that math. All these tech bros know nothing about AI and these businesses ventures will always fail. Thanks for listening to my ted talk lol.
Reenacting "The King Has No Robes" story by nobody in the Zoom meeting speaking up about the CEO's digital clothes glitched and vanished, and he wasn't wearing any clothes irl
I watched Danny Gonzalez talk about this so long ago, it's kind of baffling that it's STILL HAPPENING all this time later and it seems to be even worse than it was then??
You know that feeling when something pulls a sound bite from a memory up in your head? I have "digital style!" from the Don't Hug Me I'm Scared computer song in my head now.
I don't remember this thing being an app when Safiyah did it, it was more like a service that you could send your photos/videos and they would edit the clothes on them. That made it seem more high quality because it didn't have that many glitches
Right?? I remember that too, and i remember thinking that the technology was kinda cool but had a long way to progress and get better. Seeing it absolutely not advance in any way kinda shocked me like i thought the textures would at least be more realistic.
4:49 Okay I will admit that if a jacket existed that had a constantly shifting weather map on it I would wear the shit out of it, but it would have to be an actual piece of clothing.
you can 100% achieve the weathermap look (but not the moving unfortunately) with a cotton blend white hoodie and tie dye! i think… scrunch method would be best 🤔
theoretically if you made a jacket with an outer made of two layers of plastic with either oil or something temperature sensitive in between, it could exist as a moving jacket. theres also heat sensitive colour shifting fabric which is less accurate but still cool
@@lewinlightbulb6786 If the whole article of clothing is made out of heat sensitive material, then it will heat up and change colour in places where there's more contact with the body, y'know. Might not be always appropriate.
Such scintillating conversation is occurring here at UA-cam. Very wise and intellectual words from the wonderful and informative Isabella!* *probably Izzzyzzz's full name
Every time I see these NFT companies promoting how innovative a metaverse would be, I'm just reminded that what they're selling is literally just a giant, pay-to-play, micro-transaction riddled social MMO with a whale problem.
i remember my coursework for my media exam in the uk was to create advertising material for the 'metaverse'. the exam company was saying 'you guys dont get it this is gonna be HUGE by next year' and then it was never heard of again
I imagine if you work in advertising you’re gonna be doing a lot of work with companies who really think they have the “next big thing” when they clearly don’t, so it was probably actually good to get some experience with working on that type of marketing project.
I have VR rig and once upon a time someone I know asked to try it for metaverse because according to him "it's a great new tech that will blow up". I booted up vrchat and told him it was more half a decade thing.
Imagine an event where they gather and they have to wear glasses to see these digital clothing and suddenly bam! That cute girl/guy is nood for a split second as their digital clothing clips through peen or boobahs
Imagine thinking there needs to be an alternative to SheIn when there is already an alternative - not buying a lot of clothes, and buying better made ones that you can keep wearing for years.
The accessibility thing gets to me because, as it stands, people with certain disabilities can't access the "metaverse". Like sure this is just some rose-tinted imagining of what the future could be, but I (a blind person) cannot take that claim seriously. At all.
in tech bros ideal future, disabled people just won't exist. They get a little flighty when you press them on how the disabled people get removed from the population
@@Romanticoutlawthe digital gap is already really bad in poorer and rural areas where there isn’t good internet and as society gets more and more online those who can’t afford computers or are homeless get left behind. Accessible packaging is also rare for technology and it’s usually only accessories which are labelled for the disabled which are accessible despite the fact that these products require the main systems themselves to run which also should be accessible so disabled people can feel more independent
The next stage of nööetics based technology is looking to advance technology access for the blind. The current big issue is that blindness is a massive spectrum.

15 levels of mental gymnastics have to be gone through to get these nut jobs. Seriously, what is the point of digital clothing when you need tech to see it? What is with people’s insistence on being so difficult??
It seems the techbros were told the story of The Emperor's New Clothes but the techbros weren't listening that well and missed that crooks were selling the clothes and left the room before the child could point out the lack of clothes.
"You can be braver, more gorgeous, more aggressive, more green,.." You can do that easily in The Sims games too. Just play The Sims to live out your fantasies and stop setting the planet on fire with AI nonsense.
VRChat and Second Life are options too if they want to interact with real people while also living out their fantasy self. All this AI infused stuff is just rehashing what we already have only with a worse impact on the environment and somehow worse monetization!
To quote Dan Olson from The Future is a Dead Mall, "We strongly believe the clothing produced today is greater than what people want or need but, don't shop less, shop digital fashion, DON'T shop less, DON'T YOU DARE, DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE SHOP LESS!"
I'm interested in the claim that over half of GenZ/Millenials think online presentation is more important than IRL. They don't cite any source for this claim, and later in the same blog post reference a separate survey that they at least credit an institution for. I am inclined to believe this is a total fabrication as they have delivarately made it essentially impossible to fact-check. If anyone has more info about this claim, I'd love to see it.
There's also the fact that "presentation" can mean multiple things. I have a feeling that the people who consider the internet more important are thinking about how you present your personality, not your clothing options.
I'm thinking that they're thinking about the whole "the internet is forever" aspect - if you mess up your irl presentation (actions, clothes, words) one day people will forget it tomorrow, but if you do that online it does not go away.
it's really depressing that anything that could be cool or interesting coming out of the tech sector is immediately garbled and mangled into something hideous and empty by consumerism and a lack of consideration for our environment
Most people aren’t influencers, and at least for me, I don’t wear clothes for the purpose of posting them on the internet- I wear clothes to wear in real life.
This channel is the only thing keeping me from being 100% chronically offline. But that's cool, cause I get the best bits without suffering through it personally (so I really appreciate it)
OH MY GOD there's a huge science museum in my town that has the dressX mirror- it only has generic fantasy outfits (princess, knight, dragon, etc) and it's extremely janky
See if they made it anything like as realistic as a Snapchat filter it could bring down clothes returns by letting you "try them on" in the mirror before you order - but that's genuinely ridiculously janky!
The biggest problem with dressx is dealing with nft junk, if they just focus on making digital clothing for avatars for vrchat, second life and roblox instead making of fake clothing and scamming it would have been a cool digital clothing brand, sadly they rather be a broken nft mess smh
Im so confused who the roblox thing is appealing to, roblox is either kids who wont care or teens/adults who despise what roblox has become and would hate it This is for sure a pump/dump scheme
Overall it would be nice if instead of fake clothes that need an acre of rainforest worth of living matter being burnt to run for 5 minutes companies invested in like, actual affordable low environmental impact clothing that lasts more than one month and isn't produced in evil ways Also I love how they brag about being able to generate new clothes that, don't actually exist Like, at the very minimum if you are asking me to fit digital clothes I would appreciate if I could find those actual clothes
i love how tech bros yap about this cutting edge technology and put a fucking snapchat filter when furries are actually doing that just to control their vrchat avatar's ears with their mind 😭
@@leetri we furries are creative individuals. I'll give you that. Most first know tech better than some of these tech bros lmao. I think the problem honestly is they wanna go preaching sustainability and come yet there the ones causing the environment issues 9 times out of 10 so why do care about tech bros, corporations. They are some of the most wasteful people on this planet. Like how name brand shoe companies toss out shoes so no one can have their name brand shoes for free like... fr

It's really sad that there's a kernel of a real, useful feature - in trying existing clothes before buying them - but it's buried between a mountain of tacky tech bro bullshit slash money laundering. Side note: all the 2D graphics on their site are beyond atrocious and even a total layperson with access to a simple tool like Canva could whip up something better, but I guess this is what happens when you pick AI over real artists.
Quite ironic talking about being sustainable and taking care of the environment, and then selling NFTs and AI stuff, which are notoriously bad for the environment 😂
as someone vaguely studied in fashion sociology, it’s wild to me that this company could even exist when its failure, at least with its current mission statement, seems so obvious. (further proof that tech companies are ourobourosing themselves i suppose.) they’ve misunderstood desire and projection- if an influencer made a post about being on the italian coast, but it was found that they were posting from home and editing in a background, their followers would find it scandalous. if the same influencer posted the same photo and said outright that they’d changed the background from their bedroom to amalfi, their audience would probably find that behavior disinteresting and kind of strange. while the influencer’s fake photo might look completely real, knowing that it weren’t would remove the capacity for jealousy, desire, projection. what’s there to envy? anyone could edit their own photos in the same way. similarly, when people know that AR clothing should “cost” as much as a snapchat filter, it becomes obvious that the class barrier this company wants to enforce is entirely contrived. they’re not paying for the labor of quechua alpaca herders or greek cord-embroiderers or french atelier seamstresses. so how will that price tag justify desire from customers?
Danny Gonzalez made a video about these a few years back. They were ugly then and they somehow managed to het even uglier? Like im honestly a little impressed.
It would be very interesting to see if their _race changing_ VR filter could make me Hispanic enough not only to be attractive to Hispanic men (Which I have a serious weakness for) but also Hispanic enough for me to qualify for a Spanish passport and not the Brexitty blue one I'm currently stuck with?... 🇬🇧💱🇪🇸🤔
Back in early 2020, just pre pandemic i believe (whenever it was, nfts were still a VERY new thing), i was in highschool, and for our economics class we had an angel investor come in and talk to us one day, one of the companies he talked about was one exactly like this but exclusively based around nfts. The idea was there was a limited amount of digital clothing and should you chose to buy it you were one of (for example) 10 owners of this specific piece of clothing. They hadn't really established a "what do you gain from buying them" yet, and i have no idea if they ever did. But the funniest part of that whole experience was watching a 50-something man, explain nfts (badly as it turns out) to highschoolers, then promptly getting respectfully dragged by us not seeing any value in it. By the end of it i think he was rethinking his investment. I wish i could remember his or the company's name to see what happend to it.
oh so many hypebeast cg people make clothes like this and it’s so incredibly lame. misses the whole point of why people enjoy clothes and is JUST the consumerist part.
"Digital fashion company that partners with big brands" sounds like it should be focused on like...making branded clothes for vtubers, not weird expensive offbrand snapchat filters
Swell entertainement said it best in her CES video when she talked about how companies are investing and making big plans for the meta verse and ai stuff but there's no customers lined up. They talk about making money but their only planning is putting it on sale. Okay? Who the fuck is gonna buy that???
It gets pumped up and sold over and over by venture capitalists until investors eventually stop investing into the obvious ponzi scheme that isn't making anything in returns and the last group holding it has to scrap what's left to make some of their buy-in back.
I love your oulfit in this video !! for some reason, it reminds me of being a kid and that one boy you would meet on a summer holiday in the 2000s, he goes there every year with his family so he acts like he owns the place. Orange reflective sunglasses, chewing gum wearing a shark tooth necklace whilst he rides around on his spiderman bike.
When I saw the title, I assumed it was clothes that could be tracked (like a mocap type thing) and then customized to your liking in VR. Overkill, but sure ok, I can see why that would appeal to some. Turns out is was somehow way worse.

I'm studying to be a computer science major. AI isn't the magical future people think it is. It's just like polymer science or quantum mechanics, where people saw them and basically saw them as a magic that could do anything. The only difference is that AI is actually widely accessible and so many people that aren't, in the nicest way possible, intelligent enough think that AI can magic anything they want. AI cannot make anything original, there's going to be a certain point when what I've heard funnily called "AI inbreeding" where ugly AI images will be scanned by AI, creating a cycle of AI "content" creating by looking at other AI content. AI can be great, I've used it as a great study tool and to bounce ideas off of, but using it to steal artists work and thinking that makes you an innovator will not end well because people that do that aren't actually smart enough to realize that it takes an actual person to make ideas. AIs can't generate new ideas. It's like a calculator, a calculator is a great tool but if an idiot is handling it they're not going to be able to solve complex math because they don't and have never tried to understand the fundamentals behind that math.

The accessibility thing gets to me because, as it stands, people with certain disabilities can't access the "metaverse". Like sure this is just some rose-tinted imagining of what the future could be, but I (a blind person) cannot take that claim seriously. At all.
in tech bros ideal future, disabled people just won't exist. They get a little flighty when you press them on how the disabled people get removed from the population
Also I’d imagine these technologies to get expensive quick and disabled people tend to be statistically poorer than the average population.
@@Romanticoutlawthe digital gap is already really bad in poorer and rural areas where there isn’t good internet and as society gets more and more online those who can’t afford computers or are homeless get left behind. Accessible packaging is also rare for technology and it’s usually only accessories which are labelled for the disabled which are accessible despite the fact that these products require the main systems themselves to run which also should be accessible so disabled people can feel more independent

To quote Dan Olson from The Future is a Dead Mall, "We strongly believe the clothing produced today is greater than what people want or need but, don't shop less, shop digital fashion, DON'T shop less, DON'T YOU DARE, DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE SHOP LESS!"
I'm interested in the claim that over half of GenZ/Millenials think online presentation is more important than IRL. They don't cite any source for this claim, and later in the same blog post reference a separate survey that they at least credit an institution for. I am inclined to believe this is a total fabrication as they have delivarately made it essentially impossible to fact-check. If anyone has more info about this claim, I'd love to see it.
There's also the fact that "presentation" can mean multiple things. I have a feeling that the people who consider the internet more important are thinking about how you present your personality, not your clothing options.
I'm thinking that they're thinking about the whole "the internet is forever" aspect - if you mess up your irl presentation (actions, clothes, words) one day people will forget it tomorrow, but if you do that online it does not go away.

Not them endorsing using the product to race swap. They’re basically begging for a blackfishing controversy at a minimum
Quite ironic talking about being sustainable and taking care of the environment, and then selling NFTs and AI stuff, which are notoriously bad for the environment 😂
as someone vaguely studied in fashion sociology, it’s wild to me that this company could even exist when its failure, at least with its current mission statement, seems so obvious. (further proof that tech companies are ourobourosing themselves i suppose.)
they’ve misunderstood desire and projection- if an influencer made a post about being on the italian coast, but it was found that they were posting from home and editing in a background, their followers would find it scandalous. if the same influencer posted the same photo and said outright that they’d changed the background from their bedroom to amalfi, their audience would probably find that behavior disinteresting and kind of strange.
while the influencer’s fake photo might look completely real, knowing that it weren’t would remove the capacity for jealousy, desire, projection. what’s there to envy? anyone could edit their own photos in the same way. similarly, when people know that AR clothing should “cost” as much as a snapchat filter, it becomes obvious that the class barrier this company wants to enforce is entirely contrived. they’re not paying for the labor of quechua alpaca herders or greek cord-embroiderers or french atelier seamstresses. so how will that price tag justify desire from customers?
The Clothes? Ridiculous. The Apps? Ridiculous. The way they steal people's creations? Ridiculous.

Back in early 2020, just pre pandemic i believe (whenever it was, nfts were still a VERY new thing), i was in highschool, and for our economics class we had an angel investor come in and talk to us one day, one of the companies he talked about was one exactly like this but exclusively based around nfts. The idea was there was a limited amount of digital clothing and should you chose to buy it you were one of (for example) 10 owners of this specific piece of clothing. They hadn't really established a "what do you gain from buying them" yet, and i have no idea if they ever did. But the funniest part of that whole experience was watching a 50-something man, explain nfts (badly as it turns out) to highschoolers, then promptly getting respectfully dragged by us not seeing any value in it. By the end of it i think he was rethinking his investment. I wish i could remember his or the company's name to see what happend to it.

Orange reflective sunglasses, chewing gum wearing a shark tooth necklace whilst he rides around on his spiderman bike.
When I saw the title, I assumed it was clothes that could be tracked (like a mocap type thing) and then customized to your liking in VR. Overkill, but sure ok, I can see why that would appeal to some. Turns out is was somehow way worse.
