Dress To Impress, a Roblox styling game with 250,000 monthly active players, has incorporated a sinister backstory through glitches that involves Lana, the nail technician, being kidnapped by a sinister organization named Saudade.

IDEA

Reveal the hidden cost of fast fashion by exposing Saudade as a sweatshop operation enslaving Lana to produce clothes. The group introduces Copycat Closet, a dupe of the VIP section available for free. But every identical piece comes with a price - polluting the game world with smoke and containing clues to Lana's plight.
