MVW 2012: Evening Gown for Miss Spain 2012 by Mea Culpa & Finesmith

by

Mea Culpa did a fantastic job on the Evening gown for Miss Shena Neox, Miss Spain 2012. Black and red are the typical colors we think of, if it comes to Spain. So even for the evening gown Tatanka Kaligawa kept this colors. The basic red color of the dress is broken wonderful by the black fans and applications. The black ornaments are made with such a great eye for the details, where you again can see the incredible skills of Tatanka Kaligawa.  All those different shades of red and even a mixture of different red textures make this gown a piece of art. The jewelry is very filigree and delicate for the earings and necklace, but also the 2 amazing fans for head and hand are part of this amazing set. The fans underline the theme of the dress perfectly. “Hermosa Espina” you can purchase in 2 different colors at the Finesmith Mainstore. Shena Neox made it to the 2nd runner-up in the MVW 2012 contest with the “Devine Decision” gown from Mea Culpa and the “Hermosa Espina” jewelry set from Finesmith.

Mea Culpa – “Way to Purgatory”

by

“Way to Purgatory” is one of the latest designs from Mea Culpa. Now you will ask yourself ‘I saw that gown already before’ and yes you did 😉 “Way to Purgatory” was one of the 2 amazing gowns that were sold in the Halloween special. If you were not one of the lucky ones that got it that time… no worries. You can now get yours for the regular prize in the Mea Culpa Mainstore.

Lets take a closer look at the gown…

It is a firework of textures and prims that again show the great skills of Tatanka Kaligawa, if it comes to design and ideas. The basic color might be black but it is ornamented and decorated with so many shades, shows and lights… simply wonderful. The attachments of the body move in a dreamy way. The great huge prim attachments at the head, round the neck and the hips carry a wonderful texture that breaks the black character of the gown in a perfect way. To see what else is new, make your way to the Mea Culpa Mainstore 😉 Belive me… it is worth it :p

New shoes at Mea Culpa!!!

by

Again Tatanka Kaligawa, designer of Mea Culpa, added 3 more pair of shoes to his collection 🙂

“Hawk”, the one you can see on the pic above is one of them. I guess the talons of a raptor could be the inspiration for this amazing pair of heels. The silver, metal and black totally underlines the strong vibe this new design has!

The “Shanghai” shoes were/are part of the great winning gown “Shanghai Noon” that won the ‘One in a million’ contest a while ago. Now you can purchase those amazing pair of shoes single as well!!! I would like to call this heels as a piece of art. If you take a closer look at them, you can see all the awesome details like the flowers, the wonderful made textures and the special filigree decorated heels!

The “Ballroom” shoes you might remember from an older post… fo some short time they were a special free gift, but now they are back and if you missed it you can purchase this beautiful and elegant pair regular in the Mea Culpa Mainstore 🙂

Mea Culpa goes Fetish Fashion!

by

As I promised in my last Mea Culpa post, there is another amazing outfits of the new Mea Culpa X-Treme line. Tatanka Kaligawa himself named it Fetish Fashion and created a new line beside the Avantgarde and Couture designs in his store.

Again we can see the basic fabric is kinda latex and for the “Black Mamba” we have those wonderful long and flexible tentacles all over. What caught my eye is the cool hat that looks very stylish to the whole outfit . A very sexy touch is given by the body and the opaque stockings that are held by garters and show lots of skin 😉

The absolute perfect jewelry for this outfit in my opinion is the “Noir” set from Finesmith Designs. The lashes are as well part of the “Noir” set of Finesmith Designs and go well along with the collar, the earings and the nails of the same collection.

Exciting News at Mea Culpa – A special new line at the Mainstore!

by

Tatanka Kaligawa designed a new line for his store with very daring and extravagant designs – the X – Treme line. Fabrics like latex and vinyl show their fashionable side 😉 “Time Warp” is one of the new collection at Mea Culpa and the one I wanna write about today 🙂 As you can see in the pic above the basic of the gown is a latex fabric. With all this great lightening it really gets a very realistic touch what is usually not that easy to make in SL. All the silver and metal parts make a very cool and modern look for the whole outfit. What caught my eyes is all this great attachment parts… the awesome curled spikes that go from the waist to the sides and again they are part of the head piece, the crossed belt, the flexible skirt parts that repeat in the head part and the ankle parts. The gown comes as well with a great steel collar that fits perfect to the whole design 🙂 For the shoes, I chose one pair of the lates shoe release at Mea Culpa as well… they are called “Trex” and I already had them in one of my older posts :)They just perfect matched the black and metal style for me 🙂

“Time Warp” is not the only new design of the new collection so stay tuned… more is coming 😉

Shoe Mania at Mea Culpa – Part III

by

A few ago Tatanka Kaligawa again created new objects of desire for us ladies… Shoes!!!

The “Bullet” shoes are the first of 8 new pairs of shoes out of Mea Culpas latest shoe release. The delicate fabric decorated with this amazing rings are perfect to wear for any style you want. The heels are not just simple heels, again we can see the love for details, wich Tatanka always adds on his creations. As always you can change the nail color to every color you can think of with the great HUD that always is included if you buy Mea Culpa shoes.

“Burlesque” is one of the 2 pairs that shoes no toes and is closed in the front. Never the less you have a possibility to use the great HUD to change the color of the little filigree flowers on the outside of the shoes.

The 3rd pair of shoes is called “Diabolo”. ‘The very expensive fabric really caught my eye on that one. Again we have kinda peep toes on this one and the nails color again can be changed with the HUD. The sweet lines with the bow in the front as well make a nice decoration 🙂 and the top part honors the shoes name, looking lightly diabolic 😉

The “Empire” design for me has a very playful touch with the neat ruffles at the top and the bottom part of the shoes. The wooden sole and the metal rings make a great addition and give this pair or shoes a very special touch.

Our next object of desire is called “Poison”. Very special for me on this creation is the light glow that goes over the shoes. You nearly get the imagination of a wonderful crystal decoration. The sole and heel are made of a metallic looking fabric. With all this amazing details and the special fabric, they are a little piece of art.

“Quasar” is one of my personal favourites with the cool fabric that looks kinda vinyl  and the huge spikes. A really cool pair of shoes that really should not miss in a  fashionistas shoe cupboard 😉 it as well comes with the great HUD that Mea Culpa always provides for their shoes.

The “Speed” design all the steel and chains really make this style interesting. A few color parts that you can change in color with the HUD make it possible to match this pair of shoes to every kind of outfit.

Last but not least I have my total personal favourite pair of shoes out of the 3rd Mea Culpa Shoe Mania… “Trex” have a real interesting fabric the reminds me of reptile skin. The ankle parts and the big spike in the back totally catched my eyes and I fell in love with that pair of shoes. Again of you take a closer look at the heals you can see the love for the detail that Mea Culpa shows off in almost all creations. The 3 steel lines make an awesome match to the whole style.

So ladies… grab your purse and make your way to the Mea Culpa Mainstore 😉
