OUR TEAM


OUR STORY
After a 30 year career in the NYC luxury fashion sector, Chuck Hellman followed his lifelong vision of
disrupting the
fashion industry’s status quo. Even after successfully opening and operating world-renowned fashion stores
in Ohio, his
ambition of suiting the world persisted, prompting him to dig deeper.
After collaborating with co-founder Christian Barker, the two launched the Hellman Retail Group - a digital
fashion
brand that fuses pop culture with eccentric luxury suits. Within just a few months, their social media
presence rocketed
to over 4 million followers across various platforms. People from around the globe fell in love with their
custom suits
and passion for the community, which ultimately inspired Barker and Hellman to foray into the next digital
frontier.
Metaluxe represents the future of self-expression by creating truly remarkable experiences across the
digital, physical,
and augmented world. The Metaluxe genesis collection is composed of expertly-crafted suits in the form of
non-fungible
tokens (NFTs), each designed by hand without the help of generative algorithms. Equipped with our physical
experience of
designing the world’s finest suits, we’re thrilled to carry our destiny into Web3.
Metaluxe is composed of a team of trailblazers who value innovation. We maintain an open-minded workflow
that allows us
to explore new ventures and create cutting-edge advancements in the NFT space. By placing straightforward
utility and
expert design at the forefront of our operations, we’ve incorporated augmented reality to bring our
hand-curated NFT
suits to life. As the line between physical and digital becomes increasingly blurred, we’ve been watching
and building -
ready to launch the next generation of phygital identity one suit at a time.
