The new side of Menswear :: AVENUE Magazine March 2012

"Tied Up"
Fun with Fashion | Page 46
By Vixie Rayna

Androgyny was our theme for March, inspired by the upcoming Menswear Fashion Week 2012. All of AVENUE Magazine columnists were instructed to find their inner androgynous style. I tried to breakdown the idea into the basic theme of a tie.

By Boe Cortes

Androgynous style is fast becoming a trend in Second Life® fashion with many designers opting to create unisex clothing. Men and women are increasingly becoming more creative in the way they shop by crossing over and branching out into stores opposite to their gender.

What better way to leap into the new year then the start of a new venture: Mesh!

Mixing and matching mesh clothing for those who haven't tried is a challenge, but well worth a shot.

Mesh is here to stay in Second Life®. It was only a matter of time that the new content creation technology would be integrated into the many of the art works that have been presented on the grid. Claudia222 Jewell’s build, "Weird at the Mesh Mellows" sim does just that.



AVENUE will be presenting the MIX + Mesh Fashion Fair on February 25th...stay tuned.

Ponchos! Yep, that’s right you heard me. Long gone are the days of dressing as a cowboy in order to justify wearing a poncho. For some time now ponchos have been considered a fashion item for the ladies, but not anymore; if you're brave enough to venture out in one, here are a few styles to give you some ideas of how to "man up" a poncho for the winter. Come on lads, lets show the ladies that we can carry off a poncho just as well. So, next time you go shopping, why not "picka pucka poncho" and see what you can come up with.

wanted to create something really glam but sort of edgy with a mix of prints and textures ...something that was also still really feminine and that was in a woodland/forest setting.... just saw a piece about Kamchatka and was an inch away from literally using a grizzly bear, but alas...




"Asian Influence"

Spice up your fall with fashions from the Orient. This month’s Fun with Fashion is all about Asian influence, and the stunning Japan Kansai sim is the perfect backdrop to the styles. Take your own journey using obi belts, modern shapes, and Asian patterns.

It's been over a year since I last played with couture styles for AVENUE, so you can imagine the excitement when I started shopping around. Second Life® male fashion has certainly come a long way in creative styles and concepts with designers such as Ladies Who Lunch, Tableau Vivant, Gizza and the incredible couture hair styles from MADesign.

When I think of accessorizing myself, there are a number of stores that pop into my head as some of my favorites: Paper Couture, Zaara, Mandala, Earthstones, Lucas Lameth, Glow Studio, Rozoregalia and so many more.

This year, a bristle of wind crosses the plains bringing with it a new season of fashion. Much of the designs in 2011 have found their inspirations in safari/ethnic textures, earth tones, and the simplicity of nature. Moving into fall, we will find many designers continuing to embrace their inner nature muse. Join me on my journey to a deserted western town to showcase the upcoming trends of the season.




"Goodbye Summer"

It's time to leave behind the warm sunny beaches and tropical summers as we transition into a new season. Yes, Fall is just around the corner again and it’s time to say goodbye to summer. However, in saying that, you don’t have to pack away your entire summer outfits and t-shirts, simply just double up on the shirts, add on the jacket layers and accessorize with scarves and hats to keep in season.

Fashion @ Summer's End - AVENUE's July Issue

0 comments
As summer comes to a close - although we're still feeling the scorch of the heat - the fall fashion festivities are truly just around the corner. AVENUE has no shortage of amazing style talent, let us celebrate together in this season's hottest trends and styles.

"SummerTime"
Vignettes | Page 54
Written, Styled, Modeled & Photographed by Strawberry Singh

It's the middle of summer, and being the total beach girl that I am, I figured the best way to celebrate summer in Second Life® was to visit some of the most famous beaches on the grid. So, I asked my friends on Plurk what their favorites are, and I got a long list of names. I decided to feature the following four because I felt each of them had its own charm.



"Chic Blue Hue"
Fun with Fashion | Page 82
Written, Styled, Modeled & Photographed by Vixie Rayna

Chic Management celebrated their one year anniversary in style with designers across the grid creating exclusives for the event. Each designer created an item in the “chic” theme. This month’s column features looks from the event.




"Peristyle"
Trendspotting | Page 92
Written, Styled, Modeled & Photographed by Brie Wonder

These pieces were inspired by recent real life Resort collections, with lots of minimalism, and menswear inspired pieces. I made a “mini collection” of my own using some of my favorite pieces, and really aimed to make the looks cohesive.




"Style for Hunters"
Edge of Style | Page 102
Written, Styled, Modeled & Photographed by Boe Cortes

After a bit of a Second Life® break, I found myself needing to get back into the swing of things again. As a big fan of hunts, what better way to catch up on all the new stores and the latest releases than by participating in all the fabulous hunts like MENStuff, Zombiepopcorn and the many others SL™ has to offer.




"Nardcotix"
