Trinidad by TORN

This outfit arrived a little late at my preparation of the Haute Show yesterday, but it is really worth the wait.  The Couture AFW Trinidad by TORN, a limited edition set, is a very unique number and I agreed with Leah that it is perfect for a Minimalist-Haute look, which is one of the latest real life fashion trends.

A few styling images popped up when I put on this outfit and I spent at least the first hour trying to make one of them worked but couldn’t and finally I opted to be a “Minimalist Magician” with the same Sophie Top Hat from Pure Poison that I adored.

I have seldom required to prepare an outfit and poses within a few hours for a runway walk but thank you very very much to Leah for her helps and constant reassurance yesterday, I managed to make it worked!

I’ve got a lot of IMs inquiring about this outfit yesterday.  Thank you very much for your conpliments.  The Trinidad is now available at the AVENUE S/S Fashion Week retail gallery, the Haute section.

Face of VoguE Semi Final

It has been a very eventful day for me today.  The semi final for Face of VoguE took place this morning and I am one of the twenty finalists that was choosen to walk before the judges.

The challenges we were given are to create two mix and match styles, for casual and formal respectively.  There were some really experienced models and great stylings among the semi finalists, and it was really an honour to be part of the group.  Results will be out in the Best of Second Life (BOSL) group soon and while waiting for that, I am having fun taking pictures.

Here are my stylings.  I have styled to be seductive using the hot pants for the casual mix and match and timeless and elegant using lace for the formal mix and match.  I made the decision to wear a mesh belt in my casual styling so I could use more bold poses to showcase the outfits.
