METAVERSE FASHION WEEK 2024 WILL TAKE PLACE ON NOVEMBER 20-24

San Francisco - Metaverse Fashion Week 2024 is set to run from November 20th to 24th and will be hosted across various platforms in the Metaverse and Silicon Valley. With a strong emphasis on openness and decentralization, the Metaverse Fashion Council (MFC) aims to transcend the traditional "media event" approach, focusing on innovation, creativity, a business-oriented mindset, and investment in the future of fashion.

The Metaverse Fashion Council has outlined 10 key objectives:

1. Increase fashion week attendance by at least 10-fold compared to previous seasons. Visitors will encounter no restrictions or technical difficulties, allowing them to immerse themselves in creativity, choose the best products and solutions, and invest directly in the future of fashion.

2. Provide a seamless experience, knowledge, and voting power to every future member of the community. The Metaverse Fashion Council simplifies access at its basic level with a straightforward sign-up procedure - [Link to Sign-up Page](https://metaversefashioncouncil.org/members/signup/group/ufnquwgytc9em2l-basic).

3. Attract the most innovative and progressive designers, brands, businesses, and venture investors to participate in the event.

4. Engage participants from a wide range of countries and markets worldwide, as the Metaverse Fashion Council's active community comprises over 30,000 leaders from more than 50 countries with diverse local cultures.

5. Collaborate with Silicon Valley tech giants to foster true integration of state-of-the-art solutions into the creation, production, and distribution of fashion products in both metaverse and traditional worlds. Recognizing that the future of fashion lies in this integration.

6. Empower the metaverse fashion community as the primary stakeholder, involved in all major decisions shaping the metaverse fashion scene. Provide the community with necessary tools for decentralized governance, voting, and investment, leveraging the latest AI and Web3 technologies. These principles will be practically implemented starting with the first event in 2024. The Metaverse Fashion Council will organize voting and recognition of industry leaders during the event season with the Metaverse Fashion Awards 2024.

7. Serve as a platform for new projects, brands, and designers to showcase collections, developments, and products while facilitating meetings with angels, VCs, and investment funds. Initiate direct retail investment in metaverse fashion projects.

8. Bridge the gap in communication and idea-sharing between traditional fashion and tech companies, facilitating meetings and visits to Silicon Valley tech giants.

9. Foster an exchange of knowledge, skills, and experience through conferences, seminars, and workshops among market-leading participants.

10. Elevate the creative and business level of the event to make metaverse fashion a driver for future development of fashion in the broadest sense of the word.

Metaverse Fashion Week will unfold across various metaverse and gaming platforms, as well as multiple locations in Silicon Valley. The event program will encompass:

- Fashion shows and presentations of brands and designers, demo events, and platforms for startups and projects.

- Conferences, panel discussions, and webinars.

- Metaverse Fashion Awards 2024.

Disclosure:

Metaverse Fashion Week 2024, organized by the Metaverse Fashion Council (whose mission is to represent the entire industry and not just specific business projects), will be hosted on November 20-24, 2024, across various 3D platforms and in various AR, VR, and XR realities, in the San Francisco Bay Area and other cities worldwide. This event has nothing in common with MVFW 2022-23 / "Metaverse Fashion Week by Decentraland," which was organized to promote, among other goals, the cryptocurrency MANA (classified by the Securities and Exchange Commission as unregistered and illegal securities), potential securities LAND, and other interconnected projects, many of which, along with their representatives, are currently scrutinized by various legal institutions and courts in the US.

We couldn't find any reliable information about the legal entity and structure behind the so-called "Decentraland Foundation" on the website decentraland.org, nor did we receive any response to our request for information about potential legal IPs or the contacts of the real and legal founders and decision-makers of the Decentraland.org platform sent to the email address legal@decentraland.org. We are still collecting information about the aforementioned issues with the "Decentraland Foundation." We want to distance our industry's event, Metaverse Fashion Week, from the past events MVFW 22-23 by Decentraland as much as possible in the eyes of the public, governments, media, and all honest businesses.

We emphasize that the metaverse fashion industry shouldn't be a hostage to any specific business project and should have the industry's event "Metaverse Fashion Week" regularly, at least twice a year, independently of anyone's individual situation and intentions—good or bad. We declare our commitment to hosting Metaverse Fashion Week (MFW) at least twice a year and developing standards of transparency, business sustainability, and creative energy.

"Fashion Week" and "Metaverse" are generic terms, and "Metaverse Fashion Week" is just the right description for an event representing the entire industry, making it another generic term. We have no ambition to register this generic term as a trademark.

We affirm that we are more than open to all honest, innovative creators and businesses. Everyone, including the Decentraland platform, is welcome to apply for participation.
