Mayden Ushimawa for “Claim the Fame”: Week 7 – Urban & Streetwear

For the 7th week of Claim the Fame the designers had to create a Urban or Steetwear attire for male and female and make a description that was read during the TV show on Metaverse TV. (http://metaversetv.com/blog/2011/05/claim-the-fame-7/)

All designs are available at the KULT District (for slurl please click here)

Mayden Ushimawa: ” To this theme I took inspiration from hip-hop and RNB,  as you can see the woman’s dress looks like a typical RNB singer . enhanced by the golden necklace and earrings, leather jacket, sweatshirt strictly with the hood over the head and baggy pants. The sunglasses add a touch of aggressivity.

For the man I thought about the street boys with skateboards in hand and unmissable iPod attached to the belt.”

CYGNUS as Pyxis is prepared for any event in the future … This whole suit is a monkey too close to the body, short sleeves and gloves attached to the suit, hips sculpt with bright buttons and the head protected by a helmet with glasses, belt, collar and boots.”

Meiling – RL Designs are brought to SL!!!

Lately I had the great honor to be invited to the press conference of the introduction of Meiling to Second Life. It was very exciting to hear a really great RL designer talk about making her way into SL. Her words really catched my soul and everyone that was taking part got one or her amazing outfits packed in a little gift box that were laying on the chair. In my little box was a wonderful gown called “Midnight at Maracas” An amazing black summer gown, perfect for the actual season. At the press conference we saw pics of the RL designs that were made for SL and I have to admit Meiling did an amazing job to bring her creations to SL, very detailed and realistic.

Meiling is the premier RL designer of the Caribbean. She is renowned for her work in fine linens
and natural fabrics.  Her style is minimalist but with close attention to the detailing of every piece,whether beading, embroidery, or a razor-sharp pleat.
Although each item produced is unique–a black dress or a crisp white shirt, a bespoke wedding dress or a men’s linen jacket—the end result is always a sophisticated garment marked by superior workmanship.
The list of local, regional and international celebrities who wear her clothes include celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck and Miss Universe 1998 Wendy Fitzwilliam.

Meiling: ” I am very excited to have a presence in SL and to bring my designs in here for the residents. I am fascinated by this incredible platform of creativity and community and  totally ‘get it’ why people love being here. We have worked hard to translate my designs to the SL standards and to make sure that it looks as good or even better than the real thing”

H&S – Bikini for Avantgarde Lovers or Jewelry? ;)

A few days ago I got a big surprise from Nicki Vervain, designer of Hot and Sparkling Fashion Co. (H&S). It was named “Spotlight Jewelry Set Blue” and after I unpacked it I was expecting a nice and sweet jewelry set… but way not^^. As you can see in the pic above it is more kinda outfit and I decided for me it would be a perfect bikini for the upcoming summer. 3 attachments make the full outfit. You attach them on chest and pelvis plus the amazing mask. The diamonds have a wonderful glow…

After the last avantgarde outfit I got from her… and now the ‘jewelry bikini’ I really will have an eye on H&S to see what else Nicki Vervain comes up with 😉

Mayden Ushimawa:” The theme this week is very creative. I concentrated more on the creation of attach and less in the creation of the dress. I wished minimum one more week to refine and enrich all prims attach.

I thought about the future, where everything is possible (with the imagination) and I wanted to represent two robotics human , with features that are only science fiction.
The clothes are in latex, for the woman I used my favorite colors: white and fuxsia,
while for men blue and for the glow parts I wanted to use yellow to contrast.

…How know if one day the technology will come to this!”

PNP Pose Show – Review

Last Sunday the OGlam Agency presented the first show for PNP Poses made by  Spishak Sorbet.  Spishak Sorbet made a lot of new runway poses that were show cased by the OGlam models. It was an honor as well as a pleasure for me, that I was allowed to be part of that amazing show. The show was sponsored by Apple May, Azoury, Sascha’s Design, Champagne, Priviledge, !Silken Moon and Finesmith Designs. To give a short impression of that amazing show I would like to show you the outfits and poses I was allowed to showcase on the Runway.

My first outfit came from Apple May and was called “Cheery”. For skins we were sent to !Silken Moon and for “Cheery” I decided to wear the “Blog Frog” skin of the Rebel II series. The green eyeshadow and lips were the perfect addition to the color- and playful outfit. The jewelry for sure comes from Finesmith – and yes it is no secret that I adore yula’s creations as well as her genius designing skills and ideas 😉 – for this outfit I chose parts of the new “Rusalka Inspiration” set that matched the colors of the outfit and skin perfectly! For shoes we were allowed to pick from the great Mary Jane Shoes, made by Infiniti Mirihi. For this outfit the new “Cheeky” pumps in red where the perfect addition.

For this outfit I picked poses from PNP of the “PNP Runway – Mode” series.

The poses I used for the show were the “PNP Runway – Model 6, 28, 30, 42, 50

The second outfit I was wearing walking down the runway was made by Azoury and carries the name “Tenue Tooti”. The skin as well is from the Rebel II line of !Silken Moon and is called “L8ter G8ter” The jewelry as well for sure is made by Finesmith Designs and it is a mix of the “Vivienne Inspiration” set (earrings & headpiece), the “Ash” collar and let me add the fingernails as they are from Finesmith Designs as well, the “Finesmith Nails Painter v.1”

This dress was a real challenge to pose with the big sculpted prim that makes the skirt. But a few of the “PNP Runway – Dress” poses wer able to take the challenge and win 😉

For this outfit I used the “PNP Runway – Dress” poses 11, 44, 51, 56 and 63.

From Sascha’s Design I got the wonderful black “Zephra” gown. Again I used a skin of the Rebel II line of !Silken Moon , this time the “Mio Vio” skin. The jewelry is the “Idioma” set from Finesmith Designs and the shoes again I got from Mary Jane Shoes and they are called “Attitude Stilettos”

For the SAS Dress I chose poses as well from the “PNP Runway – Dress” series and it was the 2, 4, 9, 15, 24 and 46 that you can see in the pics above 😉

My 4th outfit was made by Champagne with a signature face tattoo from Garded Secret, that was made especially for this outfit called “Samba”. The skin is the same as I used for my first outfit and the shoes again came from Mary Jane Shoes, this time the “Strapped Stiletto” in cyan. The earrings are part of the “Valeria Inspiration” set, what is a limited set from Finesmith Designs.

For the “Samba” outfit I mixed poses of the “PNP Runway Haute” set and the “PNP Runway Dress” poses. From the “Haute” set I used the 2, 7, 10, 19 and the number 55 of the “Dress” series.

My last outfit for the PNP Pose Show was from Priviliged and it is called “Isadora Exclusive”. The skin is the last of the 4 Rebel II skins and named “Funny Bunny”, the jewelry set is the “January Colletion” from Finesmith Designs, the shoes are again a pair of the great Mary Jane Shoes – the “Satin Pumps” in white.

This time I again used poses from the “PNP Runway Dress” line to showcase the wonderful gown. I chose the numbers 8, 18, 20, 23, 26 and 27.

I hope you enjoyed my short review of this wonderful show and you take the effort and make your way to the PNP Mainstore and try all those wonderful and new poses 🙂

Mayden Ushimawa for “Claim the Fame”: Week 5 – Leather & Lace

For the fourth week of Claim the Fame the designers had to create a Leather & Lace attire for male and female and make a description that was read during the TV show on Metaverse TV. (http://metaversetv.com/blog/2011/05/claim-the-fame-5/)

All designs are available at the KULT District (for slurl please click here)

Mayden Ushimawa:”I thought the lace and I came immediately to mind a “moulin rouge dancers” with their sexy dresses adorned with lace and ribbons. that is why I wanted to draw the banknotes in the Garter , it are the tips that the dancer has earned! The gloves make the suit more aggressive and with bare feet is much more sensual.

Create a man dress with lace was very difficult, at the beginning I had no idea what to do, I thought a lot and I decided to be inspired by a tango dancer and generally to a Spanish look, a red rose on mouth could not miss!”
