retailers or purely fashion fans. The ecosystem will grow in a decentralized manner,
whereby anybody can define their role and grow their trade.

The Fabricant Studio


Create. Trade. Wear. Digital Fashion in the Metaverse.

The Fabricant Studio is a digital fashion platform where anybody can create, own,
wear and monetize their unique fashion.

Our aim is to enable a deeply engaging experience where everybody can play a role in
the digital fashion ecosystem, having fun collaborating with other designers, fashion
brands and professionals, while retaining creators’ ownership. We are aiming to
disrupt the traditional norms of the fashion industry, making it possible to participate
in the decentralized fashion economy.

The platform operates on the Flow sustainable blockchain, enjoying secure copyright
ownership with the ability to earn cryptocurrency ($FBRC). The copyright ownership
and distribution of royalties among all co-creators will be established and guaranteed
using NFTs, where every garment will have a unique identifier.

Garments are presented in high definition 3D visualizations, enabled by Unreal Engine.


All items for sale in the marketplace are ready to wear in the metaverse.

Create

The heart of the experience. The place where creation happens and anyone can become a
fashion designer. Users can combine different raw materials, patterns and trims —
uploaded by Designers and Brands — to make a new unique garment with shared
authorship.

Trade
Open in app Get started

Where all creations are traded. Creators can have their own shop, run events and
nurture their own community of fans, while retaining authorship royalty for life.
Professional buyers can curate wardrobes, present in their multi labels stores or re-sell
items in packs. Digital Stylists can curate looks and organize experiences for their own
selected audience.

Wear

When buying a fashion piece, the owner will be able to wear it in different spaces in the
metaverse. The cross-platform interoperability enables buyers to use their fashion pieces
in partner games and metaverses.

Roadmap
The Fabricant Studio is an experience for the true lovers of fashion in the metaverse.
Our ambition is to grow to a community of 50 million participants, creating, curating
and trading 350 million fashion items by 2025.

This roadmap outlines our vision on how The Fabricant Studio will evolve in three
phases. It may evolve over time and hopefully become even better with the
contribution of our community.

Phase 01. Seasons

Seasons are invitation only events, where curated Designers and Brands drop
limited edition raw materials for a selected group of Creators to mint, wear and
trade unique 1/1 fashion NFTs. All participants earn $FBRC governance token and
start having a voice in our decentralized fashion house.

Phase 02. Open Ecosystem

Open in app Get started


All Designers and Creators can participate, open a shop and organize their own
independent labels and immersive events. $FBRC will be issued as an equity token,
fueling the ecosystem. The Community Fund is launched to support the growth of
the digital fashion community.

Phase 03. Fashion Multiverse

The Fabricant Studio turns into an immersive fashion multiverse, where all
participants can profit from their trade and craft. Together we will build the largest
and most exquisite wardrobe of the metaverse.

Platform Economy
We are building a new business model for the fashion industry at large, generating new
revenue streams to aspiring creators, digital fashion lovers, established designers and
fashion brands. Sales in the platform will generate lifetime royalty rights, with $FBRC
providing immediate liquidity for the players In the ecosystem.

The Roles

We expect a wide variety of audiences to enjoy The Fabricant Studio experience and
marketplace. The three key roles at start of the platform are the following:

Designers and Brands: they are established brands/ professionals who believe in
the decentralized fashion future, are excited about co-creation and further
building their brand in the metaverse.

Co-Creators: aspiring designers and fashion fans whose motivation is to create


their own limited-edition items, establish their branding and monetize their
craft.

Buyers: They are likely to be active in the metaverse wanting to express a unique
identity for social recognition. They want to buy, wear, curate and monetize a
limited-edition digital wardrobe. Super buyers will have their own stylist status
celebrated in the platform, where they can display their wardrobes and make their
garments and bundles available for bidding on the secondary market.

Tokenomics
A key driver of value within The Studio is $FBRC — the monetary reward system
delivered via well-balanced economics, supported by both the platform and blockchain

mechanics. $FBRC is the fuel of the economy, enabling the decentralized fashion house
Open in app Get started
to operate (DAO voting system) as well as monetary value to be created.

$FBRC is the governance token, used at each level of the governance, representing
financial stake, voting power in the DAO and control of the Treasury. A portion of
$FBRC will be available for public offer purchase through various stages of the
platform development.

Governance Token
Anyone who sells or buys digital fashion NFTs will earn $FBRC tokens. The distribution
of tokens will also take place to reward users performing tasks or stimulating the
growth of the community. Ownership of $FBRC will allow for influencing decision
making of The Fabricant Studio development roadmap, platform economics, events
schedules and peer invitations. The decentralized governance will enhance the
community engagement and overall project support.

Platform Currency
At launch, The Fabricant Studio marketplace accepts Flow tokens. Shortly after, other
crypto tokens and fiat payment will be included.

Technology Tools & Partners

Technology Tools
We have based the technology roadmap for The Fabricant Studio on two major pillars:
Flow blockchain and Unreal Engine.

Flow is the blockchain technology developed by Dapper Labs, the company behind the
success of NBA Top Shot and CryptoKitties. Flow is a high-scalable, secure, sustainable,
developer-friendly solution designed for a new generation of dapps and games in mind.

Unreal Engine is the leading realtime 3D creation platform, where all the NFTs minted
in The Fabricant Studio and all the Fashion Shows will be rendered. Ultimately, The
Fabricant Studio will be an interactive experience built on Unreal Engine.

Utility Partners

Creators will be able to assign utility to their NFTs. The translation and integration of

the NFTs in the different partner metaverses will be performed by The Fabricant in
collaboration with the Utility partners. Current utility partners are Sandbox,
ReadyPlayerMe, Unreal Engine Marketplace.

We will continue to grow our utility partnerships to enable anyone to wear digital
fashion in the metaverse.

Long Term Vision

“We buy fashion for two reasons: to protect our


bodies and express our identities. When our
identities live in the digital realm, why would we
need physical fashion to exist?” Amber Slooten,
Creative Director and Co-Founder of The Fabricant
We are building a future that is essential for our digital realities. As we live more and
more digitally immersive lives, our digital fashion wardrobes will become a cherished
part of our possessions. We will be able to express our identities without the limitations
of physicality or preconceived notions of truth.

We will augment our personalities with digital garments, which can be changed
multiple times per day. We will monetize our possessions, sell our creations and
participate in the fashion economy while having fun curating our wardrobes.

Currently, there are already more Avatars than clothes in the digital sphere. We are
creating the most comprehensive fashion wardrobe through a decentralized model,
which will allow for exponential growth of fashion items in the metaverse.

Conclusion
Through the utilization of blockchain technology and 3D realtime engine, we are
creating a fashion world that is decentralized, immersive and sustainable.

The Fabricant studio provides easy to use tools and services to enable a new generation
of fashion professionals to exist. In this new fashion ecosystem, we can all participate
and explore our identities in the digital realm with no limitations.
