“Luxury retailers have an opportunity to enhance personalized selling by offering high-touch (virtual) contact experiences through Apple Vision Pro, including private shopping sessions,” she adds. She references American fashion label J.Crew as a prime example. The brand has begun trialing virtual stylist appointments via the Vision Pro, allowing for a personalized, immersive shopping experience.
Papagiannis also believes that endorsement from media titans like Douyin is likely to help stoke sales. “It not only attracts attention,” she says, “but also encourages other companies and developers to explore and invest in spatial computing.”
SYKY for Apple Vision Pro debuts showcase with iconic Japanese label Anrealage (source)
Luxury fashion platform SYKY announces the launch of its groundbreaking fashion experience on Apple Vision Pro. Debuting with a showcase from avant-garde Japanese label Anrealage, the SYKY app offers an unprecedented way for fashion enthusiasts to enter and explore the worlds of legendary designers and fashion houses.
To begin, the app focuses on aesthetics and storytelling, rather than sales. The app opens with an open-air courtyard that mimics the Syky website, with wisteria branches draping over arches and columns. Similar to the Gucci and Balenciaga apps, it is formatted as a wide screen that appears to be floating in the wearer’s own environment, rather than a fully immersive virtual reality experience. Additional details lean into the magic of mixed reality, however, with purple blossoms and a butterfly extending beyond the screen, lending a feeling of both digital immersion and familiarity.

Apple has plans for making Apple Vision Pro even more accessible and allowing for it to be controlled with customized gestures.
Imagine being on a Zoom call and being able to mute yourself the way a radio DJ does by making a slicing gesture in front of your throat. Or perhaps make the age-old hand signal for "phone me" and have Apple Vision Pro send your contact details to whoever you're looking at.
