HMD [Fusion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/screen-protectors-and-case) unveils the Smart Outfit accessories which allow users to clip designs onto their smartphones similar to a smartphone case. The Finish company is celebrating the upcoming [Venom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/venom-go): The Last Dance by working in collaboration with [Marvel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-heroes-vs-villains) on the new designs. Phones are transformed to honor the antihero, altering the function and appearance in real time.

The Smart Outfits are inspired by Venom as the custom experience features three exclusive components. It clips onto the back of the Fusion and renders custom themes, wallpapers, and captures iconic lines from Venim. Each of the outfits integrates "160 electromagnetic arrays controlling ferrofluid in a glass chamber." This is to form a venom-style effect on the phone's exterior and software.
