Clothing Fair is coming to an end; only two more days left to go and grab those fabulous RFL items and other goodies and discover new stores and designers. Another of my new finds from the Tokyo SIM is KWZ and I grabbed their Orient LeM dress as soon as it rezzed.
Another great thing about Clothing Fair is being exposed to designers/styles that you wouldn’t normally see everyday in your second life. It’s a great opportunity to find great new designers and see what’s going on fashion wise in the lands outside of our comfort zone. And that is exactly what happened to me when I stumbled into the Tokyo SIM and found myself standing in the Milky House store. This mini kimono was so cute; I just had to have it.
Speaking of Baiastice, you can find them on the Milan SIM at Clothing Fair this year. I’m always excited to go into the shops of designers I know and see what’s new and what they have in their RFL vendors. After all, this is a charity event and I while I like to dress well, I also enjoy donating to a charity like the American Cancer Society. 100% of the proceeds from these special vendors will be donated and that’s really something to celebrate. Baiastice has two such vendors this year and I could not resist purchasing the Elegantes Plumes in Midnight. And this is definitely a dress to celebrate in.
As you have probably heard by now, Clothing Fair began this weekend. If you’ve not braved the lag, I urge you to de-prim and teleport over there to check it out. There are eight different sims for you to wander through. This year, they are built to look like different cities around the world. As if the fabulous shopping wasn’t enough to entice you, the builds are really stunning. I couldn’t pick a favorite city if you asked me to; each one definitely had it’s own character.
With eight full sims of shopping, you can imagine the long list of designers participating this year. And, of course, Clothing Fair is really about raising money for the American Cancer Society. One of the things I love about SL is our ability to raise large amounts of money for a cause without any one person having to stretch their budget. Clothing Fair is a wonderful example of this generosity. Most designers have special items in the RFL vendors, with all of the proceeds from those sales being donated. Also, many designers are using this event to debut new pieces to the public.
One of the new items being debuted this year is a gorgeous new jewelry set from EarthStones called Zahra. Abraxxa Anatine was kind enough to send over a review copy the other night and I couldn’t wait to build a look with it.
