“Glamour as Armor”: SYKY and Audrey Nuna's Digital Fashion Collaboration’s Redefining Style
In a revolutionary fusion of music, fashion, and technology, luxury fashion platform SYKY has unveiled its latest digital collaboration, “Glamour as Armor,” with Korean-American R&B artist Audrey Nuna. This groundbreaking partnership marks Nuna’s debut in digital fashion and promises to redefine the boundaries of creativity in the industry.
At the heart of this collaboration lies the innovative vision of SYKY Collective member Fanrui Sun from Sunw, a London-based Chinese digital artist and designer renowned for her exploration of the intersections between nature, humanity, and technology. With her expertise in luxury sensibilities and 3D technology, Sun crafted a bespoke digital collection inspired by Nuna’s highly anticipated single “Jokes on Me.”
The hero image of “Jokes on Me” features Nuna adorned in Sunw’s metallic creations, reflecting the song’s themes of defiance and self-expression. The digital garments, crafted with meticulous detail, exude a sense of rebellion and confidence, echoing Nuna’s distinctive “rage n B” style.
The collection comprises two original pieces: Symphony and Galactic. Symphony, reminiscent of futuristic armor for romantics, features a breastplate, battle skirt, and leg cover crafted in mercury-colored metal, embellished with delicate spear-like tendrils. Galactic, on the other hand, explores the outer reaches of the universe with its opalescent outer shell, transparent and translucent like Mother of Pearl meets metallic wax paper, evoking the undulating form of a jellyfish.
What sets this collaboration apart is its accessibility and immersive experience. The “Glamour as Armor'' collection will be available for purchase exclusively through SYKY, allowing fans to own a piece of digital fashion history. Moreover, buyers and SYKY’s Keystone Holders will enjoy exclusive perks, including access to download 3D files for content creation, a virtual hangout with Sunw and Audrey Nuna, and an invitation to a SYKY social event with Nuna in NYC.
Audrey Nuna, known for her groundbreaking approach to storytelling through music, expressed her excitement about venturing into the realm of digital fashion with SYKY. “This collaboration is my first experience with digital fashion, and I’m excited to be partnering with SYKY, a platform that is trailblazing the future of the industry,” she said.
Alice Delahunt, Founder & CEO of SYKY, emphasized the transformative potential of this collaboration. “Through the ‘Jokes on Me’ single launch, Audrey's innovative approach to storytelling serves as an inspiration of what creative magic could emerge when digital fashion, art, and music collide,” she stated.
Indeed, “Glamour as Armor” represents a convergence of artistic vision and technological innovation, pushing the boundaries of traditional fashion norms. As SYKY continues to lead the exploration for new forms in fashion, this collaboration with Audrey Nuna signifies a bold step towards a future where self-expression knows no bounds.
