News Alert: Mixing Video Games and Fashion
.jpg)
What: A new design is hitting the aisles at H&M next month: a black and white sporty dress designed by a contest winner on The Sims 2 video game, according to the LA Times. The designs, walked down a virtual runway, were judged by H&M’s designers in Sweden. The winning dress is moving from the TV screen to the hanger.
What We Say: That dress is actually very cute! We’ve played The Sims before--who knew it could become a business venture for its fans? We also can’t help but wonder about the effects of this--will we all become amateur clothes designers now that you can do a sketch on a video game? We’d like a go at it, please!
What do you all think about the winning design? Will you buy it?
