Modernist Fashion in SL

Italian Masterclass

Finding classic virtual tailoring with a definite flair in a virtual male fashion world obsessed with ragged low rider jeans and T-Shirts can be quite a toil. For the mod looking for flamboyant sharpness wrapped in retro tailoring it can be difficult to locate the correct stylists in the virtual world. Fortunately there are a few designers who realise male fashion is not all about overt gay flaymboyance and brutal hetero ruggedness. One of the foremost male fashion houses producing items that are useful for the aspirant virtual mod is Sartoria. Its fashion muse is firmly grounded in classic Italian styling and they produce a wide range of beautiful suits thats should get any mod's wardrobe off the ground and running.. This wonderful black suit is a fine example of their creative powers. The texturing is delightfully done and it comes with a host of layers providing the versatility virtual fashion cries out for.The neat hankerchief in the breast pocket is a neat touch and gives the suit a classic early sixties retro vibe that is ideally suited to the modernist  seeking an authentic looking item for is virtual wardrobe.


Next is this magnificent leather coat, an essential for any ace-face virtual mod. Whilst the parka declares your mod status the leather coat defines you as a face amongst the crowd and thats the goal of every mod virtual or otherwise, fashion attention seekers to our very core. The texturing on this item is another piece of excellent workmanship and the three quarter length ideally suited for those seeking a retro classic. I've not purchased this item but if I was seeking another leather coat this item would be top of my list. 

Check out Sartoria, they ask a premium price for much of their work but they deliver in style and content, a good base for building your modernist wardobe.

ciao.
