Prada has launched its fifth NFT Timecapsule collection, this time introducing a gender-neutral physical offering and a gifted NFT. The release includes a ‘Timecapsule’ shirt made from Prada-branded upcycled fabric from the brand’s archives. The shirt arrives as the luxury designer’s 34th in the Timecapsule Collection, and is decorated with bold text that spells out the month of October, along with beach and floral prints on the satin material. Additional design features include a topstitching pattern, a raw cut hem, and raw cut sleeve ends.
The Timecapsule is a once-a-month online event where a limited-edition item is made available on prada.com for 24 hours on the first Thursday of the month. Each item comes with a special serial number, and customers can redeem their NFT after delivery.
