Ever since Shiryu Musashi came back to the grid and started releasing new designs under his label, Musashi-Do, I have been captivated by his talent. His textures are truly exceptional, and his eye for style is amazing. And when I saw that he would be releasing this gorgeous Brocade Princess gown, I knew it would find its way to this blog sooner or later. I even blew the dust off my male alt, gave him a bit of a makeover, and dressed him up in a fantastic tux from Musashi-Do, too! Click through for more…
The Brocade Princess gown is really exquisite. I love the fit and style of the gown as well as the beautiful textures. The sash is very well done, and the amazing gloves really complete the whole look. I found the perfect accessories in this gorgeous Crystal Bloom necklace and earring set from Paper Couture. And the BARDOT-Vivienne skin from [KA] SKINS and the Hannah hairstyle from >TRUTH< make this entire formal look intrinsically me.
The Party in Venezia tuxedo is just as stunning as the gown. Shiryu has really mastered the tuxedo with his exceptional textures and amazing craftsmanship. The tuxedo comes with a HUD, which allows you to reposition the lapels, collar, and bowtie, and retexture the bowtie to your liking. This is a fantastic idea and is really executed well. The HUD is extremely intuitive, which made repositioning the attachments incredibly easy. To complete the look, I added the amazing black hi-shine M110 dress shoes from Adam n Eve, which look really great with this tuxedo.
As you can see, Ethan got a bit of a makeover. Since the day he rezzed, he has worn the Jude skin from [PXL] Creations. But I thought he should try the new NiK skin from :: DUTCH TOUCH ::, and I think it looks so great on him. I tweaked his face to suit the skin and updated his hair color to a deep brown. Then I bought him some new eyes from Eponym, although I actually chose these amazing freebie eyes from Eponym for this look.
I’ve decided to expand my blog to occasionally feature male clothing, so feel free to send any suggestions my way.
