According to WWD, digital closets on Kardashian’s game — launched in partnership with Glu Mobile — are getting a major upgrade courtesy of the designer, whose virtual interpretations of pieces from his fall 2015 ready-to-wear men’s and women’s collections were integrated into the game last December. Now, Rousteing is the first designer to launch pieces exclusively for the platform, including the accessories bundle (also available for 105 K-stars in the game’s online currency).
“The pieces are composed of opulent fabrics like velvet and fringe that recall design elements from the Fall 2015 RTW Balmain collection,” Rousteing, who also makes a virtual cameo on the game as the leader of the Balmain Army, tells WWD. “While these products don’t current exist IRL, or in real life, it’s a possibility down the line.”
