Miley Cyrus, Gucci and Roblox
In May 2022, Italian luxury brand Gucci launched its own metaverse called Gucci Town on Roblox. In August, Miley Cyrus was the first guest artist in this virtual space. She pitched in to promote the launch of Flora perfume from the Gucci Beauty line.
As a Gucci ambassador, the artist leads user engagement in challenges, games and interactive learning experiences.
Gucci Town was launched with the purpose of offering a virtual space in line with the company’s vision regarding the metaverse and Web3 .
In the same month of May, the brand announced that it will start receiving payments via 12 of the most popular cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin ( BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and stablecoins.
The president of Gucci, Marco Bizzarri, said: “Gucci is always looking to embrace new technologies when they can provide a better experience for our customers. Now that we can integrate cryptocurrencies into our payment system, it’s a natural evolution for customers who want to have this option available to them.”
While the payment method is only valid for stores in Los Angeles, New York, Miami and Las Vegas, purchases can be made via a QR code via email or directly at retail stores.
