Suits at Studio Sidhe

I was recently pointed toward the designs of Faery Sola, owner of Studio Sidhe and I’m certainly glad I got a nudge. I didn’t know what “Sidhe” meant but looking it up told me it’s the Gaelic word for peace and can also refer to a supernatural race in Irish mythology. Perhaps I am on the only one who gets curious about names and branding…but anyways ;)

Though I am showing you Faery’s newly released suits, there is a whole host of items at Studio Sidhe to check out - beyond clothing, there’s hair and hats, and accessories good for both men and women.

On to the suits, which are nicely done in a subtle velvety texture. You can buy the whole suit or pick the pieces you fancy since they’re also sold separately. These are the chocolate and slate suits, which were my favorites since I can better mix and match with basic colors. But the suits also come in many brighter colors as well.

There is delicate lace on the skirt (which comes in three flexi prim pieces) and optional jacket cuffs that sets off my favorite piece, which is the very pretty and versatile cami. Now, you may notice the lack of buttons on the jacket. That’s because they come as an optional prim attachment and kept getting buried whilst posing. For that reason, I do prefer drawn buttons on most items. Last thing to mention is why the hell I am showing the skirt base? I wanted to point out two things 1) I think it’s cute on it’s own ^^ and 2) I appreciate when a designer treats that layer as more than just a base and applies consistent detail (like the lace here for example). Seems obvious but sometimes it’s missing and can make for a much more complete look in most any pose.

These are on sale at Faery’s new Hopes Point outpost for $175L each.

P.S. I went back to TaP yesterday and got my hands on more prettyful skins. Expect to see more of those as I cycle through the new additions to my stash.
