Wearables are 3D items that collectors can equip on supported avatars in the Open Avatar Studio. You can create wearables using OP Blanks (recommended) or by uploading a custom GLB for accessory slots.
Before you start, make sure you have a Community Page, a Community Vault set up under Community Settings, and enough Create Units to cover the publishing cost.
