MEET OUR FASHION JUDGES:
Eminent Fashion Consultant & Editor of Ghouls of Fashion Frederick L. Beetlejuice, is just one of our many celebrity fashion judges, in three incredible fashion runway venues.
Speaking of Labor Day weekend — think a moment; we’re already near capacity, and just a short while ago, several folks weren’t able to get into a region because it was overcrowded, remember? We’re going to run out of room very fast, and we’re talking only a few weeks — yes, weeks — away from Labor Day Weekend, take note.
If you need professional help with your costumes or ball gowns or suits, ties, jackets, etc. — because, yes, there are men’s spots in the fashion show. The categories for the men have not yet been finalized, but in general, it’s for Best Concept and Best Presentation — you can get professional guidance from our staff of Personal Dressers and Costume Consultants. Just call or IM for more info.
Want to be a Super-Model in Second Life?
Don’t we all, honey? But honestly, you can! It’s really simple, made even easier by attending Jedrik’s Super-Model School of Really Super Modeling. You can find out the latest Second Life beauty secrets, how to adjust clothing on your avatar, how to choose Complete Avatars, how to mix & match and how to put on shoes!!! That last is the hardest to master, but worth the effort! You can learn to walk and wear the very highest of haute couture!
Super-Models will be developed in Second Life, meaning that they will have personalities, they’ll be covered by our own staff of papparazzi, and their every romantic or off-beat activity will be noted in our Official Gossip Tabloid Radio Show here at the Ashram.
We will eventually see a new breed of supermodel, honed for high performance on the Second Life Catwalk — otherwise known as the Runway, and sometimes just The Street.
Are You An Originals Designer?
If so, you’re in luck — you have a venue in which to present and sell your fashion vision creations. Check out our beautiful newly built Fashionista Red Carpet Runway. An original designer can win prizes and recognition at our runway shows! The best part is that you can sell the items as virtual mesh and actual textiles and fabrics! You get the best of two worlds!
So whether you design or merely select and wear, you are invited to participate in the Labor Day Convention Second Life Fashion Show, as well as all the other events we’re planning for the long weekend, from Thursday night through Monday evening. Should be quite a festive occasion, and I think we’ll see and hear some wonderful theater, dance and song.
If you are a poet, we’d love to hear it. If you write short stories, why not read them to us in your choice of several venues including a Medieval Tavern, a converted Railroad Car Diner and many outdoor spaces. It rains only rarely in Second Life.
See You At The Top!!!
