Inside, they are greeted with Lacoste\u2019s latest summer collection, featuring an array of clothes, shoes, and accessories. A quick elevator ride transports visitors to an outdoor space that showcases additional products, all set within a relaxing pool-deck setting that overlooks the beach.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-lazyloaded=\"1\" title=\"Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428 - NFT News Today\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"388\" src=\"https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428-1024x388.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73955\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428-1024x388.png 1024w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428-300x114.png 300w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428-768x291.png 768w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428-1536x583.png 1536w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-155428-2048x777.png 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source Lacoste Virtual Store<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engaging Features and Unique Collaborations<\/h2>\n<p>NFTs are becoming increasingly connected to real-world experiences, and in the case of Lacoste\u2019s venture, these digital assets serve as keys to unlock exclusive shopping areas and collections. Adding an extra layer of engagement to the shopping experience, the virtual store also features a crocodile scavenger hunt. The hunt leads shoppers to an underwater VIP space, a feature available exclusively to Le Club Lacoste and UNDW3 members. This exclusive space is unlocked through an email login or a Lacoste NFT.<\/p>\n<p>Inside the VIP space, shoppers will discover an exclusive co-created UNDW3 collection. This unique collection is the result of a collaboration that took place in March between Lacoste and its UNDW3 Web3 community members. The collection is set to be released this summer. Interestingly, each physical garment in the collection is accompanied by a digital twin and an AR feature, which can be accessed by scanning a QR code. The excitement doesn\u2019t end there. The mini treasure-hunt game continues into the VIP room, where participating community members receive special prizes every week.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-lazyloaded=\"1\" title=\"Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-160719 - NFT News Today\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-160719-1024x657.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73958\" width=\"662\" height=\"424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-160719-1024x657.png 1024w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-160719-300x192.png 300w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-160719-768x493.png 768w, https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-26-at-160719.png 1278w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">UNDW3 NFTs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Power of Virtual Retail with Emperia<\/h2>\n<p>Lacoste\u2019s summer virtual store was made possible by collaborating with Emperia, a virtual retail technology developer. Emperia\u2019s platform empowers retailers to create and maintain cutting-edge shoppable virtual experiences. Moreover, it leverages data monitoring to optimize in-store virtual user experiences, brand engagement, and conversions.<\/p>\n<p>The unveiling of Lacoste\u2019s summer virtual store follows in the wake of the brand\u2019s holiday virtual experience, which was launched late in 2022. This previous venture was a resounding success, earning Lacoste and Emperia a Webby Award in the Metaverse, Immersive &amp; Virtual Retail &amp; Shopping category in 2023. The summer virtual store continues Lacoste\u2019s commitment to innovative retail experiences, promising an equally rewarding journey for its shoppers.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>Through this innovative use of NFTs, Lacoste bridges the gap between the physical and digital world, creating a multi-dimensional retail experience. Moreover, with its summer virtual store, Lacoste combines fashion and technology, creating a distinct footprint in the retail industry. The availability of exclusive collections, interactive in-store activities, and an immersive shopping environment are elements aimed at promoting a sense of community among customers.
