VILLA FORBES — 3D NFT COLLECTION
CANNES FILM FESTIVAL • 350 GUESTS • IMMERSIVE 3D SHOWCASE
In the prestigious setting of Villa Forbes, during the Cannes Film Festival, MATHIEU CASTANIER MC unveiled a 3D NFT shoe collection to an invited audience of 350 guests — a seamless dialogue between traditional craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology.
VILLA FORBES: THE SETTING
Known for its discreet elegance, Villa Forbes offered a panoramic view over Cannes and an atmosphere of intimate luxury. As the sun set over the Croisette, fashion figures, tech innovators and art leaders gathered to discover a new chapter in digital couture.
THE NFT COLLECTION: LUXURY MEETS BLOCKCHAIN
Each model in the collection exists both as a physical design and as a 3D NFT authenticated on the blockchain. Owners benefit from provable exclusivity, traceable authenticity and the potential for interactive experiences, digital wearables and advanced personalisation.
AN IMMERSIVE 3D SHOWCASE
A large-scale projection brought the 3D creations to life: textures, reflections and proportions were displayed in motion, allowing guests to experience the pieces in a fully digital environment. The presentation illustrated how the physical and virtual worlds can converge under the banner of luxury design.
VISION & RECEPTION
“We don’t just create products; we craft unique, personalised experiences where our clients become part of the creative process,” explained Mathieu Castanier during the evening. The event was warmly received, highlighting the maison’s role at the intersection of fashion technology and contemporary luxury.
