While Non-fungible Tokens (NFTs) may have lost some of their luster this year, they’ve still helped multiple fashion and athletic brands rake in millions. In a set of data compiled by Dune Analytics, Nike topped the list with sales-to-date of $185.4 million. In addition to its own considerable clout, Nike received a big boost of credibility in the space when it bought well-regarded NFT platform RTFKT Studios in December 2021 for an undisclosed amount. (Note: Total sales includes RTFKT CloneX sales and royalties pre-acquisition.)

Among the top five brands with the highest revenue figures, Nike is followed by Dolce & Gabbana, Tiffany & Co. (which recently released a CryptoPunks-associated pendant), Gucci and Adidas with total revenue of total of $25.6 million, $12.6 million, $11.6 million and $10.9 million respectively.

As much a money play as a marketing effort, NFTs are viewed by brands as a way to make a connection with younger demographics who have shown a greater propensity toward virtual spaces, whether through their interests in art, gaming or real-life merchandise.

That said, the money brands have minted to date is not likely to grow as fast in 2022, a year in which NFT sales have dipped noticeably compared with last year. According to Non-Fungable, NFT sales in 2021 hit a peak on August 27th when sales for the day hit nearly $430 million, a huge compared with August 25th this year when sales registered just $20.7 million.

Givenchy reative director Matthew M. Williams will Givenchy reative director Matthew M. Williams will step down from the role following a three-year stint with the LVMH-owned label. Williams will present his final collection with a men's and women's pre-fall 2024 collection, to be unveiled in the coming days. 

Leading the creative direction of Givenchy was, as I said upon my arrival in 2020, the dream of a lifetime,” Williams said in the statement. “Over these three years, I have strived to perpetuate Mr. Hubert de Givenchy’s legacy while bringing my own creative vision and I would like to sincerely thank the studio, Renaud de Lesquen and LVMH for this incredible opportunity.”

While Williams was credited with the buzzworthy Shark boot and Voyou handbag, he was often derided by the online fashion community for falling short of achieiving the same level of buzz and cool when the label was under Riccardo Tisci's creative direction from 2005 to 2017.

Williams will continue to head creative direction for his own label, 1017 Alyx 9SM, which recently announced plans to ramp up production and expand door count through a parntership with Adrian Cheng, a Hong Kong entrepreneur.
