As we build the new BOINGO store for July 1 we’re adding some colors to existing pieces based on all your requests...
Have fun!-JeelaHere is a new Link Dress 2 in almost white PEARL (Pure white causes lots of color problems in SL) so you can go behave like a Devil, while looking like an Angel.
We got a lot of requests for this but we hand paint everything and I wanted to make sure it was just right. Submitted for your approval, and available in the main store..
The Boingo Link Dress 2- GOLD & SILVER.
(Oh btw… the stain on the hip is NOT a stain! This fabric is metallic and it’s a reflection! All painted to make it look real, just like a metallic dress in RL would.)
I have a minor obsession with shopping and visit art galleries in larger cities. (Someone I know very well said it was the understatement of the year…) But I love to take a stroll down the streets and have a look at shop windows to see how they have decorated to get the clothes to look their best. I also love to sit in front of a painting or a sculpture and just think about how the artist was thinking when He/She created it.
I have been thinking a lot about fashion in general lately. I was reading a blog the other day and this blogger had a strong opinion about fashion not being art. She said fashion is fashion and art is art. She also said there is a huge difference and that anyone that really have seen any kind of art and compared those or even had a thought it’s on the same page is an imbecile. Why she was thinking like this didn’t really come up to the surface.
I had to think… Is fashion art? Can art be made into fashion? Does it have anything at all to do with each other? Can one be influenced by the other? Music and fashion definitely are… So if music and fashion goes hand in hand then why can’t fashion and art? How did this subject get into her head in the first place? For me it was obvious! Of course fashion is art! When I look at a dress, RL or SL, and know how much work that’s behind it and all the sketches it took to get it right or how it, just like a painting, comes to life in the mind, heart and dreams of the designer I cant but help thinking… FASHION IS ART!!! And that is my opinion.
So let’s say for a second that fashion is art… another question. Can you compare RL fashion to SL fashion? I mean… in SL you can wear clothes and things not possible in RL. Like our wonderful Link dress 2 for example. I know for sure my tits wouldn’t stay behind this fabric! If it could be made in RL (or is it already?) would it stand a chance at the New York fashion Week? I have no idea. In august I’m attending the Stockholm Fashion Week. Then I will try to see if there is anything like the Link cocktail dress and if there is… I WILL BUY IT!!
Here is your chance to pick up one real piece of artwork…
Link Dress in PEARL, GOLD or SILVER for $575 L each
(The collection is intricately cut and constructed as usual.)You will kick ass at any opening of an exhibition or cocktail party in this dress.
Boingo is about being different.
Take a walk on the wild side Multiversers!
