Lorenzo Riva, the artist director of the luxury fashion brand Balenciaga during the 1980s, launched\u00a0a much anticipated Crist\u00f3bal Balenciaga: To the Moon\u00a0nonfungible token (NFT) collection on July 21 in collaboration with Cointelegraph. The NFT collection comprises 8,300 original, never-before-seen designs from Crist\u00f3bal Balenciaga himself.<\/p>\n

Crist\u00f3bal had humble beginnings as a local tailor\u2019s apprentice and eventually rose to prominence in the fashion industry as a pioneer of novel garment shapes. These fashions, such as the sack dress and the cocoon coat, changed the course of women\u2019s fashion in the 1950s.<\/p>\n

During the 1980s, Lorenzo Riva served as the artistic director of Balenciaga and received the original designs created by Crist\u00f3bal. Cointelegraph created the art collection and collaborated with Art Vein, a fine art NFT platform, Animal Concerts, a metaverse entertainment company, and Crypto.com NFT to bring this fashionable digital NFT collection to life.<\/p>\n

There are a total of 10,000 unique pieces of fashion history up for grabs, and the team has doubled down on rewards and gifts to make it a memorable experience. NFT minters would be eligible for designer gear, gift cards to high-end designer brands and even drawings by Crist\u00f3bal that are 70 years old.<\/p>\n
