When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

FabriX landed on ComplexCon Hong Kong on 23-24 March Immerse in digital transformation of fashion retail
Experience Newly Designed AR digital kiosk Launching “Phy-gital” merchandise with Spin Fashion at ComplexCon
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 March 2024 – Following the successful FabriX Digital Fashion Roadshow 2023 in London and Paris, FabriX continues to make waves at ComplexCon’s marketplace Hong Kong from 23-24th March 2024 – the festival’s first global destination outside the United States.

Launched in 2022, FabriX is committed to nurturing and promoting talented fashion designers and brands worldwide, offering them exposure and opportunities on the virtual runways of the global digital fashion market. In 2023, FabriX ventured beyond Hong Kong with the FabriX Digital Fashion Roadshow, showcasing the creations of homegrown talents at the prestigious London and Paris Fashion Weeks, whilst fostering collaborations with designers from these fashion capitals.
With a shared purpose for defining what’s next, FabriX had been invited to be part of ComplexCon’s inaugural international edition in Hong Kong 2024. This represents a major step towards FabriX’s vision of being a global bridging curator of all things digital and building a digital fashion hub that connects the world’s leading digital tech partners, fashion brands, talents and authorities.
To explore the possibilities of this year’s theme Bio Futurism, “FabriX – ComplexCon Hong Kong” revolved around the latest enhanced AR digital kiosks, integrating Marketplace and Membership subscription functionalities into digital fashion fit and style via AR filter, customised stickers and make-your-own digital fashion outfit photos. It was also FabriX’s first initiative to combine virtual and physical sales models, partnering with Spin Fashion to introduce the “Phy-gital” FabriX hoodies for on-site showcase, try-on and pre-orders. Three designers of the season, FENG CHEN WANG (China), GERMANIER (Switzerland), and WINDOWSEN (China), also made their appearances at FabriX where one may have the opportunity to exchange ideas on virtual fashion with them in person.
FabriX takes the lead in digital fashion: Fashion Meets Future
Digital fashion exists at the intersection of creativity and technology. Whilst the ideation and conceptualisation stages of digital fashion collections may take place offline just like traditional fashion, digital fashion heavily employs the use of visual representation powered by computer-aided design, 3D animation and imaging, and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies.
In contrast with traditional fashion design involving time-consuming and costly processes, digitalising fashion with techonlogy, such as different design software allows designers to truly stretch their imagination in the virtual world – experimenting with colours, material, textures, forms and finishes before fitting their creations on models in virtual dressing rooms. This enables digital fashion designers to rapidly accelerate the design and prototyping phase with significantly lower costs, fewer resources and in a highly-sustainable manner.
With the advent of gaming, blockchain technology and the Metaverse, consumers and designers have begun to take note of the rising importance and value of virtual assets, whether as items of online self-expression or investment instruments.
Fashion labels and luxury brands have embraced digital fashion by launching exclusive digital-only collections and establishing retail presence on virtual platforms. As the line between physical and virtual steadily blurs, digital fashion will continue to redefine how we design, market, purchase and wear fashion garments.
FabriX is curated by a team of experienced creative drivers lead by Shin Wong, FabriX Project Director along with Designer’s Curator, Declan Chan, exploring the best tech partner in the world, with the unlimited support by William To, Executive Director of PMQ, bringing a new dimension to the virtual fashion experience.
“From the very beginning, FabriX has set its sights on the future of fashion, crafting a journey where trying on and owning digital couture feels like second nature,” said Shin Wong, FabriX Project Director. “FabriX strives to offer a whole new experience by integrating digital fashion into our everyday life. Whether it is experimenting with different fashion styles in the virtual world or owning unique digital designs, we lead the fashion industry with its innovative and forward-thinking mindset. Through FabriX, people can easily explore and showcase their individuality and style, while enjoying fashion. Whether they are young fashion enthusiasts or individuals who pursue a certain kind of lifestyle, FabriX provides them with a fresh perspective, allowing them to unleash their charm in the world of digital fashion.”
“FabriX is the pioneering digital fashion initiative – in the process of selecting the designers – I hope we can find designers with a portfolio of work that fits perfectly for the digital world. Most of their work are quite futuristic and extraordinary, when I saw some of their work at their show, I can already sense that it’s made for digital fashion. On the other hand, the selection of designers are not bound by their origin, we have designers from China, London, Switzerland, actually everywhere – digital fashion is not bound by territories, so I believe this should apply to the selection criteria of the designers,” said Declan Chan, FabriX Designer’s Curator.

AR digital kiosks with Marketplace and Membership subscription
First multi-disciplinary partnership with Roblox in avatar outfit
Launches “Phy-gital” merchandise with Spin Fashion at ComplexCon Hong Kong
Since its inception, FabriX aimed to make the experience of trying on and collecting digital fashion items more seamless and intuitive. Integral to this are the Augmented Reality (AR) Photo Kiosks which debuted at FabriX 2023 – Digital Fashion Roadshow in London and Paris Fashion Weeks, where you can simply select, try on, pose, snap and share your digital fashion look effortlessly. At ComplexCon Hong Kong 2024, FabriX showcased the AR digital kiosks in a new futuristic seamless design. It was also the first time FabriX integrated Marketplace and Membership subscription functionalities in their website. When users scan the QR code in the kiosks, it allows them to not only purchase their digital fashion outfit photos, but also instantly try on and acquire their favourite digital fashion items. With a truly immersive shopping experience, fashion retail is redefined through digital pixels.

It was also the first time FabriX ventures into the gaming realm and partners with Roblox. The works of 11 fashion designers from this season have been transformed into Roblox avatar outfits, becoming the first-ever avatar outfit collection on the Roblox platform featuring designs by renowned fashion designers. Buyers can purchase individual fashion items from this collection on the Roblox platform, allowing them to traverse between the physical and gaming world with the same digital look, breaking the boundary between the two.
FabriX’s creativity knows no bound! FabriX collaborated with Spin Fashion to launch the first “Phy-gital” FabriX hoodies. The hoodies were showcased, available for try-on, and open for pre-orders at ComplexCon Hong Kong, taking the sales model a step further by combining the virtual and physical realms. FabriX hopes to partner with more designers to realise their work in the near future.
FabriX – ComplexCon Hong Kong once again partners with Yamanyamo
Visualising Bio Futurism with GenZ artists
This year, FabriX goes even bolder and embraces Bio Futurism as the overarching inspiration. In the age of AI meets CRISPR gene editing, fashion aesthetics will no longer be bound by traditional human body form. Not only the physical fabric will be composed of previously impossible bio-engineered materials, the very human bodies will also be the altar for fashion designers and sculptors to perform their styling aesthetic, with results beyond our boldest imaginations. Altered body forms best illustrate the concept of bio-futurism in fashion industry, showcasing the possibilities provided by the cutting-edge bio engineering technology. ‘Bio Futurism’ captures the zeitgeist and perfectly manifests the forward-thinking mentality of FabriX in ComplexCon.
FabriX once again invited award winning creative agency Yamanyamo as the Creative Director of the project, collaborating with GenZ artist Ram2 to visualize the concept of Bio Futurism and create mind-boggling short films which vividly present complex ideas. Please stay tuned to FabriX social media platforms for more visual content produced by Yamanyamo.
“FabriX OOTC – Outfit Of The City” discovers hidden beauty of the city
New Generation influencers interpret FabriX digital fashion collection
“FabriX – ComplexCon Hong Kong” has invited Offgod (Andrew Mok) (https://www.instagram.com/yalocaloffgod/), a promising artist who rose to fame at the age of 19; Ip Yi (https://www.instagram.com/ipyi/), model loved for her willowy idiosyncracy; and Hanna Chan (https://www.instagram.com/hannachanx/), a rising actress with a background in modeling; to interpret the latest fashion pieces from the new season of FabriX through short films. Their FabriX outfits will be released on their personal social media platforms.
The design of digital fashion transcends the limitations of material and size, unrestricted by physical application such as customers’ gender, age, or body shape. Designers can now have an entirely new perspective to explore infinite possibilities, breaking free from the constraints of traditional fabrics. Wearers also embrace a new concept of “clothing” as digital fashion is not just a trend for influencers or the fashion industry but can be anyone’s new endeavour. This year, “FabriX” had invited renowned fashion photographer Leung Mo (https://www.instagram.com/leungmo/) to collaborate on a project titled “FabriX OOTC – Outfit Of The City”. Together with 10 diverse Gen Z individuals, they had visited iconic locations in Hong Kong, exploring the city’s landscape from a Gen Z perspective to discover its hidden beauty.
11 promising designers from Hong Kong, China and around the world

Meta Earth Official Website Launch: The Pioneer Explorer in the Modular Public Blockchain Domain

BERN, SWITZERLAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 March 2024 – After over two years of thorough preparation, and with the enthusiastic support and active promotion of the global community, the Meta Earth (ME) website was officially launched on March 20, 2024, marking a significant milestone for Meta Earth in presenting its vision and mission to the world. The website serves as a gateway for global users to gain a comprehensive understanding of ME.

With the official launch of the ME website, Meta Earth, cooperating with Galxe to launch the Meta Earth Social Supporter Campaign on March 20th, aiming to reward our early supporters. For more details please refer to: https://galxe.com/SLnAt8fnzEafqivEVeoXdw/campaign/GCMy6tT9k2
Besides, ME Labs is set to launch a one-year public testing event titled “Explorer Tour” for Meta Earth v1.0, aiming to broaden community access to the global market. Despite the ME Network being in the early stages of 1.0, ME Labs is eager for global users to engage in the construction of Meta Earth from an early stage. All early supporters and contributors participating in the public testing event will receive generous AIRDROP rewards.
Currently, Meta Earth released the roadmap of ME on the official website and all relevant technical developments and ecosystems are being carried out in accordance with the plan. While ME Network v1.0 hasn’t completely realized the full vision of Meta Earth, both ME Labs and ME community members are optimistic, given that Meta Earth has a very clear plan for the implementation of its technology.
Firstly, Meta Earth starts with its foundational infrastructure, the ME Network, adopting a decoupled, layered, modular design. It will be divided into the DA Layer (Txn consensus), the Settlement Layer (including state consensus), and the Execution Layer. This approach enhances the public chain’s scalability and further improves data throughput to meet the future on-chain ecosystem’s demands for big data and high concurrency processing, providing strong technical support for building a multi-dimensional integrated network.
Secondly, by offering a one-stop ME SDK development toolkit that standardizes the development process, we lower the cost of building applications, enabling developers to create innovative Web3 applications or Rollup-chains in the shortest time possible. This provides a continuous stream of momentum for the construction of the Meta Earth ecosystem.
Meanwhile, Meta Earth establishes a comprehensive decentralized identity verification system to protect user data security and uniqueness, returning data privacy and asset sovereignty to individual users by ME ID. Moreover, Meta Earth ensures “one person, one ME ID” through compliant KYC, adopts a national node governance model, and aligns the on-chain identity system with real-world identities, eliminating the misuse of false identities, protecting the interests of the majority, actively embracing regulatory policies of various countries, and promoting the robust, secure, and sustainable development of Meta Earth.
Meta Earth is not only making solid progress in technology but has also built a sufficiently broad offline community foundation. Meta Earth has established offline communities in multiple countries, including Switzerland, Turkey, Dubai, Thailand, South Korea, Vietnam, Spain, and Indonesia. These communities are not only the cornerstone supporting Meta Earth’s global growth but also a powerful engine driving the prosperity of the Meta Earth ecosystem.
Meta Earth not only carries the expectations of the global community but also attracts widespread attention from industry media and capital institutions. The startup funds raised by ME will be used in key areas such as technology R&D, team expansion, market promotion, compliance and security, as well as the green economy, all aimed at enhancing human happiness and promoting ecological sustainability.
Over the past two years, Meta Earth has accumulated a diverse range of collaborative resources, including top universities, financial institutions, regulatory bodies, and media communities, establishing a broad network of strategic partnerships. This diverse partnership endows Meta Earth with stronger competitive advantages, providing a solid foundation and extensive support for ME’s development.
In the future, ME will continue to drive ecosystem construction and technological innovation. On one hand, through its official Twitter account @_MetaEarth_ , ME is establishing close ties with teams from various sectors such as other public chains, oracles, NFTs, DeFi, GameFi, and wallets, to provide developers and users with more comprehensive services and support. On the other hand, ME will insist on continuous technological innovations, enhancing high performance and security, and rolling out more technical components to build its core technological barriers, including the launch of the ME ID Protocol, cross-chain bridges, etc. Following the realization of modularity, Meta Earth will officially initiate a funding support program for the ecosystem developers community, including the issuance of Grants, hosting hackathons, etc., to accelerate the expansion and influence of the ecosystem, innovating and integrating to create technological barriers, forming a broad ecological moat.
In summary, the official launch of the ME website marks Meta Earth’s formal entry into a phase of rapid iteration and growth. We firmly believe that, with the joint efforts of ME Labs and the global community, ME Network will become a leading modular public chain in the data sovereignty field, providing Web3 with high-performance, compliant, privacy-protective, and multi-chain interactive infrastructure. It aims to introduce trillion-level traditional industry application scenarios, promoting the comprehensive prosperity of the digital encryption era.
