The store will have a collection of renowned fashion brands like Prada, Balenciaga, and Thom Browne, said Mark Zuckerberg in a live stream video with Instagram’s head of fashion. A Meta spokesperson also confirmed that the outfits would be priced between $2.99 and $8.99 only. These prices are much less than the original outfit prices by the designers.
