FIT DTech Lab partners with Digital Fashion Week to bring the NYC Digital Fashion Symposium NYC to FIT.

Across major fashion cities and in parallel with traditional fashion weeks, Digital Fashion Week is a lens through which we view the future of fashion.

Under the three pillars of thought leadership, innovation, and creativity, Digital Fashion Week disrupts the traditional notions of the role of fashion by dropping the barrier between the runway and the audience. Fusing leading edge Web 3.0 technology with A-list independent designers, they create immersive phygital experiences from IRL to URL.
