A Little Bit of Style by Zoe Demar - Fantasy Week: Wrap-up

Thank you for checking out Fantasy Week here on Z...complete over the past 5 days.

I think Second Life is a great opportunity to try out many of the different fashion creations available on the grid.  I really challenge yourself to appreciate what our fellow residents have created because our Second Life experiences certainly would not be the same without them!  

Chaospire, Graves, Deviance, BareRose, and Solange are awesome stores to check out for fantasy - but there are countless others striving to make their own marks.  Even during these 5 days I already thought of other places I wished I had mentioned and hope to give them their own highlights in the future. 

To the designers - thank you for creating fashions to write about and display over the past 5 days.  I couldn't have done it without your imagination, talent, and time.

Sincerely, Zoe

PS - Please leave comments with your favorite fantasy stores that you would recommend!

A Little Bit of Style by Zoe Demar - Fantasy Week: Deviance

Deviance has been around for awhile but is one of the newer fantasy and costume stores that I personally have learnt about on the grid.  Surreal LeShelle first caught my eye recreating costumes of some rather famous characters such as Snow White.  But I had my first virtual experience when photographing one of her fashions for ROLE Magazine's wedding spread back in May 2009.


Deviance continues to catch my eye with her beautifully made creations that hit the mark with textures and color choices.  I can't say that her store reflects the vibrancy of her fashions, but it is easily accessible to her creations as well as the outstanding photography vendor displays.  LeShelle reflects her designs mainly on the more modern themes of costumes but has recently released some more items that come from a more fantasy based reflection.

Sorry guys but this store is strictly based for the female roles of Second Life, but I'm sure there won't be much complaining.  Deviance has a wide variety of items available for all sorts of costumes, role-play or fantasy experiences.  Some of my faves include Dark Elementalist  (new), Spring Fairy - Bluebell, and Enchantress (shown left)

And if this fantasy isn't your thing; there is a great set of casual wear including some awesome jeans (I own a pair or two) as well as lingerie and gowns.  There are a couple random lucky chairs and a discount section.  Deviance is definitely on my, "can't wait see what she does next," list!

TP to Deviance

Enjoy!

Love, Zoe
