Mayden Ushimawa for “Claim the Fame” – Week 2 – Formal

For the first week of Claim the Fame the designers had to create a formal attire for male and female and make a description that was read during the TV Show on Metaverse TV. (http://metaversetv.com/blog/2011/04/claim-the-fame-2/)

All designs of the Claim the Fame Shows are available at the KULT District (for surl please click here)

Mayden Ushimawa:”To make the “Monica” dress I was inspired by a memorable evening of spring. The dominant color is white, this is a pure color and different from the usual formal dress. Lace makes the dress most elegant. The collar with plumes and the flexi skirt gives movement to the dress.

For the “Brian” outfit I took inspiration from the very beautiful RL models, with a perfect body and a face to be kissed all over. For this reason I created this outfit. It gives the impression of a man who has just escaped from a crowd of girls, a bit messy and not even having the time to wear his jacket.”

Marita Overland:”Wicca wears a lovely white gown consisting of a scuplted top and half skirt.  You can’t help but notice the stylish silver armor on the shoulders and waist along with a structured bow in the back.  As if the skirt wasn’t elegant enough, it glitters even more with a second layer of fabric.  The shoes are also included in this romantic, yet edgy, ensemble.

Harsch is wearing the “Romeo” version of the formal wear. A miliary style jacket and pants, in white and gray, are a wonderful compliment to his “Juliet”.  The jacket is adorned with a high collar, cuffs, armored shoulders and belt.  The boots are also included with the outfit you see here.  Seemingly for seeing his own fate, the belt includes the poison he will take his own life with and the dagger Juliet will use to perish herself. True love never looked so stylish.”

Lexi Vargas, designer of  Brocade Tiger, brought a neat firework of amazing textures with the “clockwork” couple outfit that was not just formal in my view 😉 As well I saw a light steampunk touch in that as well what really touched my soul 😉

Lexi Vargas:”‘Lady Clockwork’, a striking formal gown in the Steampunk tradition. A three-layered skirt gives depth with two layers of striped fabric topped with a draped and partially jeweled top layer in the signature clock print fabric. The fitted, square necked bodice is a combination of the striped and print fabrics and the same theme carries into the beautifully shaped and traditionally fitted sleeves embellished with puffs at shoulder, elbow and wrist. The whole ensemble is drawn together by a semi opaque bow and drape effect that makes a dramatic silk waterfall down one side of the gown. Sure to be an eyecatcher at any formal event where Steampunk/Victorian dress is required.

The male model strikes a dashing note in ‘Lord Gear’, a formal outfit that has its roots steeped in Steampunk tradition. There is much attention to detail in this suit. A duel fabric jacket of chocolate leather and striped fabric skims the shoulder line, with the same effect carried into the pants. These clever styling details make for a simply stunning outfit. The jacket lapels and collar are decorated with gears and cogs and the pants with buckles and straps. A cream satin edged shirt with frilled jabot collar and brooch completes the look. This outfit could be worn at any suitable formal occasion enabling the wearer to stand out from the crowd and it would certainly delight any Steampunk gentleman worth his cogs.”

Inga Wind, Designer of Inga Wind Designs, started with “Penelope” and “Bartelby”, a wonderful details and lovely looking couple outfit.

Inga Wind:”Penelope” is an amazing blue formal dress. The basic is made in a non symmetrical manner that makes a bare right shoulder while the left shoulder is decorated with an amazing detailed sculpted prim. The top layer has a very elegant texture that is broken by an awesome lace stripe that runs diagonal from the right upper to the left hip.
The skirt as well continues the non symmetric look. On the left side it goes further down with a wonderful ornamented sheer texture that is framed by an opaque looking satin border and the left is lightly shorter.
Gloves, shoes and the lovely headpiece come with the whole outfit so you have no trouble to match the right color and look.

“Bartelby” was made to match “Penelope” perfectly. The black basic makes a wonderful tailcoat with amazing flexible prims in the back, where the seams carry the same texture that you already saw on “Penelope” as well the little neat bow tie. The white shirt shows off folds and shadows in a very realistic way. Collar, bow tie, cuffs and Sleeves are made of sculpted prims what ad as well a very realistic touch. The black pants complete the elegant male look and the sash round the waist again shows off the amazing blue texture decorated with filigree ornaments and buttons.
“Penelope” & “Bartelby” are the perfect couple for the perfect couple :)”

News at Ezura!!! An amazing new outfit for a perfect couple :)

Today I have the great honor to show you one of the latest releases of the great Ezura Xue, incredible designer of Ezura. She again created a wonderful outfit named “Willow” This great outfit as a male and a female version what makes it possible to be the perfect couple 😉

Let me start with the female version of “Willow”

“Willow” for females  comes in 6 wonderful different options to wear. The first one we can see above is the most elegant  wide one with a long closed skirt that is amazing flexible. The hips are covered by a little part that looks like a short skirt over the long one and makes a lightly medieval touch. This touch is underlined from the amazing black brocade looking texture that covers the whole gown. The top is made like a wonderful corsage that accents the well shaped waist of a Lady perfectly. Only 2 lines hold the corsage in place and go over the shoulder to the back. Wonderful if you want to add jewelry like a huge collier 😉 The arm parts are as well awesome flexible and move with every wind breeze.

For the first 3 versions we keep the ‘long’ skirt variation to some point. On the very left you can see the version that is fully open in the front and the long skirt part in the back falls like a train down with an opaque texture that keeps the amazing fabric of the top and the gown version. For the second version in the middle we again have an open front but not that much as before and the fabric changed to a very sexy sheer one. On the right we have one version, that just has a high slit on the right side, again with an opaque fabric.

As we look through all the different styles of that amazing outfit i do not wanna skip that you as well have the choice of 4 different colors. Coal, teal, emerald and mocha.  You can as well wear that fabulous outfit as a stunning lingerie as we can see on the left side in the teal color.

For the example of the mocha version I chose the short version of this amazing outfit. As you can see with this outfit you can cover every situation you can think of. It is really an awesome chameleon that has lots of possibilities.

 

Now it is time to take a look on the male version. Again I would like to thank Harsch Sharktooth for modeling this great outfit for the post 🙂

The male “Willow” is the perfect match to the female one. The same great textures that you had on the skirt you find here on the jacket. The details on that outfit really blow me away. Every little part that you can think of is done with so much love on every single part. The white shirt, the tie and as well the waist coat that you can see under the jacked always is made of a lighter shade as the jacket itself.

Same as for the female “Willow” we have the colors coal, teal, mocha and emerald. In this pic you can see how great the shades work together for the different colors. Another great detail is the belt that lays so perfect on the hips. The pants are also made with great lights and shadows according to the color of the jacket and waist coat.

Overall you really should make your way to the Ezura Mainstore and take a look by yourself.

Jeans are not Jeans ;) New Jeans from R:A:D!

Yes, it is true, jeans are not jeans 😉 I searched a long time in SL to find jeans that let a female backside look really neat and sexy. Most of the jeans I found made a flat ass, or the pockets were too big… but now I found the perfect jeans for us girls at R:A:D

If you take the taxi to the R:A:D Mainstore you will find a bunch of different jeans, but all have one in common…anyways wich style… all will let you backside look so sexy that you will enjoy your avatar walking on your screen 😉 A special design you can find is the asian zodiac version of the jeans. The have prim sleeves for the legs and are available in 3 different colors, black with red print-as we can see in the pic above for the dragon –  blue with dark blue print and white with black-grey print. All that for every of the asian zodiac signs! If you like skulls… you should try the “Hawk Skull” jeans. A used blue jeans with a neat hole on the left upper leg, where the skull seems to climb out 🙂

Here we can see the “Tiger” version of the zodiac signs jeans in blue and the “Area 51” jeans, wich is available in black and blue. If you take a closer look especially at the seams you will see again the great eye for the detail, that designer Redclaw Inshan puts on his designs.

If you like it more uni you should take a look on the “rust” jeans. A brown and simple jeans, which is great to mix and match with everything to create a unique look ;). Another one of the new jeans is the “Industrial Skull” jeans, who is ornamented again with a skull print this time without a whole and on the right upper leg. The great black stone washed basic texture gives a very cool and smart look 😉

All the jeans are unisex and the little back pockets fit perfect on a cute males backside too 😉 For all jeans, also for the “Dusk Ripped”, you will also have a belt included in the basic version, matching to the color of the jeans itself.

Last but not least we have the zodiac jeans in white with the horse sign and a very special idea for the jeans, designer Redclaw Inshan himself showcases in this picture. The “Eagle” jeans have a print on the front side that will give one whole picture if you are standing with closed legs… a very cool and unique idea 🙂

If you know the problem, that we females never find jeans that fit, you definitely should take a look at the R:A:D Mainstore and try that jeans… you will never wear different ones!

White Widow…incredible hairbases only for men??? No!!!

We all know Julie Hastings and her great new face tattoos… but there is another genius owner of White WidowStan Jigsaw, genius partner of the incredible Julie Hastings 😉 This both together basically run White Widow. Todays post are about the hairbases done by Stan Jigsaw and the fact that these are not only for males 😉

I really fell in love with that amazing unusual hairbases. The were basically made for males, but who knows me… that cannot hold me from testing 😉

As a brave female you even can wear it without any hair and just show off character, but also as you can see in the first pics you can add hair attachments also…

The bases are available in 5 different colors (red, white, black, brown and chestnut) and the fatpack No#2 contains 6 different styles (Litmus, Mist, See, Swirl, Tecoma and Twig). In the 3 detail pics I got help by Harsch Sharktooth that shows the bases in black and myself the chestnut version. Thanks a lot Harsch for being patient and giving me that much of your time to snap!

To show the full ornaments we just snapped every style and color once from the back so that you get an idea what they look like in total. But as I said I hope that could show that this great and incredible hairbases are not only for males;) Ladies..dare to be brave 😉

Autumn comes… we are prepared ;)

(Outfits: LeeZu – “BonVoyage” male & female version, Models: Wicca Merlin & Harsch Sharktooth, Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The days getting shorter, colder and less colorful. But also darker and fewer colors can be very fashionable 😉 For example the “Bon Voyage”  outfit from LeeZu. Part of the NOIR series this outfit comes in a male and a female version.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” male version, Model & Photographer: Harsch Sharktooth)

For the male version I am happy that Harsch Sharktooth agreed to help me for that part 🙂 Thanks a lot for your pics, time and patience Harsch!

“BonVoyage” for males is a great black opaque body suit. The basic black texture that we can see for the pants also is repeated in the combination of awesome textures.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” male version, Model & Photographer: Harsch Sharktooth)

Basically it looks like a simple bodysuit, but if you take a closer look and look at the prim attachments you will realize the amazing design ideas and skills with wich LeeZu can make every outfit to something special.

(Outfit: LeeZu – ” BonVoyage” female version, Model & Photographer: Wicca Merlin)

The big legs sleeves, hand attachments, elbow attachments and the huge shoulder parts. All created with a fantastic eye for details and wonderful skills for creations and design! The female version is not a fully opaque body suit… it has this sexy laced parts at the top. The private parts are perfectly covered and still you can show a lot of stunning lace covered skin what accents your shape even more 😉

Overall a perfect outfit for the actual season anyways if male or female… with the “BonVoyage” you are perfectly dressed if you take care of your style 😉
