Abstract
This project is a commitment to aesthetically replicate the blokchain efficiency of NEAR in stylish fashion with creative urban dress styles minted as rare collectible NFTs. This project aims to create a paradigm in NFT fashion by rewarding collectors with perks that include the physical receipt of the minted style and other perks of exclusive community membership and access to future product awareness and contributions. Assuring collectors of the proprietary creative ownership of the designs and creating rarity that assures the collectors of non future availability of the designs projects an exclusivity that would excite the collectors along with the other perks that come with the NFT. In this vein, a collection of dresses are marketed with the collector confidence that the product line would be discontinued after all tokens of the design have been purchased. Whence, a fashion line that serves exclusivity (in the vein of limited editions) to its patrons is created using the intricate vehicles of Web 3 in its marketing.
Project Description
Creating unique designs that carry the emblem of three themes namely: NEAR ENERGY, NEAR FREQUENCY AND NEAR TRUTH.
These three themes would comprise three unique designs of each theme. these designs would carry similarity in their urban style orientations but would be set apart by the quote inscriptions on each one of them. Simply said, these themes are three separate designs: but each design contains 3 separate quotes for that design’s three iterations.
Below is a breakdown of each theme’s style and quotes that accompany it
NEAR ENERGY: (Same Design: 3 of 3 with differing quote inscriptions)
A short sleeved hoodie top and low flap shorts
Fabric: Cotton
Inscriptions: Believe in your energy, Energy = Frequency x Power, Harness your energy
NEAR FREQUENCY : ( Same Design: 3 0f 3 with distinct quotes )
V neck long sleeve T shirt with extra bust
Waist lace trousers, low flam ankle length
Fabric; Cotton… Stripe design on Shirt and Trousers
Inscription: Frequency is everything, Tune into your Frequency, Life is vibration and Frequency
NEAR TRUTH: ( Same Design: 3 of 3 with distinct quotes )
Long sleeve Hoodie with Large cape
Rubber waist trousers with spaced waist size and low flab
Fabric: Cotton
Inscription: The truth is within, The truth has nothing to hide, Truth is in realization and experience
Methodology
These designs and inscriptions would carry the site for wallet creation: wallet.near.org subtly on either a corner of the shirt sleeve or trouser ends, this enables the user or an observer to happen upon the site at sudden momentary instances which would provoke curiosity to want to visit and see for themselves
I am working with @cedrick.near and @genvergara.near on this project both of whom are winners of the NEAR fashion DAO Bounty and are community members of the Fashion DAO. They are both digital designers and would be the ones i will be communicating with concerning the rendering of the 2d version of these designs before they are sent to the dress maker for reference of creation. The dress maker will create two sizes of each design theme; Large size and Medium Size. This description would be made available in the description section of the NFT for collectors to be aware of the available sizes. Altogether this makes 18 dresses which would be made, the calculation is as below
NEAR ENERGY 3 pieces ( 2 sizes: Large, Medium) = 6 Soon to upload 2d design from @cedrick.near
NEAR FREQUENCY 3 pieces ( 2 sizes: large, medium) = 6 Soon to upload 2d design from @genvergara.near
NEAR TRUTH 3 pieces ( 2 sizes: large, medium) = 6 Soon to upload 2d design from @genvergara.near
Total = 18 pieces
BUDGET ( 2d Images of Design themes to be uploaded before budget request )
Design of 2D version of theme NEAR Energy ( One style and 3 quote inscriptions ) by Ceedie : $50
Design of 2D version of themes NEAR FREQUENCY and NEAR TRUTH (two styles and three quotes on each style) by genvarra : $100
Fabric for production of dresses (18 pcs) = $200
Payment for professional dress maker for making dresses (18pcs) = $7 x 18 = $126
Printing quotes on 18 pcs = $5 x 18 = $90
Total = $566
Evaluation
All designs would be created and printed on the sewn dresses and ready to ship to the collector upon purchase of the NFT. It would be advisable for NEAR Fashion DAO to include some extra perks for the collector in the project description of the minted NFT to boost chances of sales so that the DAO and author can both benefit. The NFTs would be on 50 % revenue and royalty split between the author and the DAO
