Modernist Fashion in SL

White Light White Heat

This look has Britpop overtones rather than classic retro mod style, the high collared leather jacket and cap are very reminscent of the early nineties style of Britpop behemoth Oasis, the white jeans are classic mod in any decade.

The cap is scripted, for size and colour, and comes from Argrace is a great accessory and comes with blonde hair so requires no fiddly adjustments to wear it without your hair poking through the hat. An excellent addition, but not strictly mod more a generic sixties [check Lennon] or NeoMod item.

The white leather jacket is fronm Armidi, and is also stylistically NeoMod rather than a classic modernist fashion piece; but, worn with the white jeans from Unknown Boutique it creats the all white look of the ace face as seen in many retro photographs of the period, just tweaked to match a NeoMod look, yet still retaining its essential modernist foundations. No crime in experimenting with the modernist look to create your virtual mod image.
