Modernist Fashion in SL

Its the colour of this suit that immediately grabs the attention, the deeper vibrant purple with a sharp sheen to it that draws the observers eye towards it. In the virtual world vibrant colours are a key fashion component subtle pastels appear to wash out in the pixelated world of low graphics computers and strong bold colour seems to work better, at least on my screen! This suit texturing ticks the colour box straight away, the deep resonant purple beautifully offsetting the white shirt with tie combination.

As for the shirt and tie combination, the white shirt is crisp and the prim collar and tie unit looks wonderfully sixties, slimline tie with a neat pin tucked into a neat white waistcoat, an exceptionally sharp look. The prim work continues in the shirt cuffs, and very long knee to ankle prim work on the trousers giving the a tad more flare than I like, I much prefer the tight prim cuffs of Armadi but nevertheless the look okay in the wider context of the suit. The suit design is similar to a couple of other suits I possess, a nice sharp cut with clean lines well executed and textured with light and shade to give a smart textured fabric look to the graphic. There is a substantial amount of prim work within the suit some superfluous but all well executed and the suit comes with a host of variables making it very versatile even if many of the variations are unsuitable for a sixties styling. However in its basic form the suit does very well as a piece of retro sixties tailoring; its not a cheap suit and its possible to get similar [butt without all the various combinations] for considerably less Lindens. But, this said, I think the colour is so good the work to create it very sharp that it is very deserving of a place in my modernist wardrobe filed alongside my stunning blue suit from Lois Allen Designs Discount Outlet both have a startling dramatic colour tone and catch the attention ... the fashion goal of all mods - virtual or otherwise!
