Christie Lau

Named in the Institute of Digital Fashion’s Top 100 Innovator’s list of 2023, Christie Lau is an XR artist, working with digital fashion, AI, and augmented and virtual realities. Referencing internet culture and everyday mundanity, their work reimagines recognisable motifs and environments in AR and VR, in a playful and absurd take on reality.

Having recently graduated from BA Fashion Print at Central Saint Martins, Christie’s giant QR boxes became a viral sensation. On the runway, they debuted their digital garments on 3 giant QR code boxes worn on models on the runway. When scanned, they will take the viewer to an AR filter where they can see Unreal metahumans wearing the full collection. Their work has been featured by the likes of i-D, Dazed, and the Evening Standard.

Shortly after graduation, they have already worked with high profile clients such as Meta on their Queens of the Metaverse campaign, designing and creating mixed reality outfits for drag king Adam All in a one-of-a-kind mixed reality runway.
