With so many of us working remotely from home and spending more time indoors, virtual forms of entertainment such as Nintendo’s record-breaking game, Animal Crossing, has amassed 11 million users since May 2020. For many, it’s a colourfully sweet escape from reality that goes beyond borders, especially with the indefinite travel bans.
The life simulation game not only allows you to interact with other players around the world within a deserted island setting – it has proven to be a creative outlet for users, content creators and clothing brands to express themselves in style. And with a growing number of luxury brands and independent designers joining the Animal Crossing bandwagon, we’ve rounded up some of the best branded looks in the game to ‘shop’:
