Social media has revolutionized our lifestyle but today we have moved a step ahead toward the ultimate tech adventure: virtual reality. This is definitely an interesting thing to explore, a person just needs to strap on a unique headset and he is transported into the scene being displayed on the screen. Indeed, something like a magic but in actual it is an advanced form of technology.
With the increasing popularity of virtual reality, it is now being connected to the fashion world. Recently, the first ever VR advertisement was created by Kate Moss Stars and it features a perfume. The most famous supermodel brought VR to the commercial spot in form of this ad and Tilbury spoke that this ad soon became popular with a large audience base when compared to traditional media. Another impressive VR experience was recently launched by Tommy Hilfiger and it was a big hit in the fashion world. After this, many other popular fashion brands such as Balenciaga and Rebecca Minkoff also launched their amazing VR runway shows.
