Modernist Fashion in SL




Often viewed as the mecca of the virtual casuals scene Dyn stocks a wide range of real life labels and self creations in the classic eighties casuals style: polo shirts, sweaters, track jackets, etc. This sky blue piece is a fine example of Dyn self design drawing from their real life casual influences. The jacket is beutifully textured baring the Dyn label, labelling an essential feature of this style, with a neat prim collar that gives the jacket that cool casuals look.



Reaction couldnt be more different its a sporty surfer store, rather than a gritty football inspired fashion style its all about sun sand and surf. But, thankfully there are stylistic crossovers and Reaction have some fabulous track jacket styles that suit the casual look and are a fine addition to your thuggery wardrobe.

Both jackets are worn with some cool free jeans, with neat prim cuffs, from SD Designs and an old pair of Shiny Things oxblood shoes.

Whilst not a feauture of classic modernist fashion the NeomMod stylings of the 21st Century draw on classic retro styles, skinhead and rude buy influences plus the casuals and Britpop stylings of those who were inspired by retro mod. In the virtual mod world we can draw on all these plus inject a little individualism into your style...hey man if it fits looks cool and causes a gasp its mod enough for me and I'll jack it in. See you all Tuesday, get with the beat.
