Mastercard is to use blockchain technology to track the provenance of limited edition fashion items as part of a showcase of collections from leading women designers and artists.
Conducted in collaboration with retailer Fred Segal Sunset and fashion platform Made, the first collection from the partnership features a demonstration of Mastercard’s blockchain-based Provenance solution, which offers visibility into product journeys.
Using the technology, customers at Fred Segal will be able to scan the labels of designer items with a QR code that will trace each step of the product journey and verify authenticity.
