On Sunday, January 13 at 5:00 p.m. SLT, Glam World will be hosting its first artist showcase, featuring original photography by Torrid Midnight.

Torrid’s photography is truly breathtaking - capturing emotion, depth and beauty resulting in some of the most moving avatar-based photography in Second Life.

Direct TP: Torrid Midnight at Glam World at 5:00 p.m. SLT on Sunday

Glam World is offering SL artists the opportunity to showcase their original artwork at a gallery on the sim. If you’re interested in a showcase of your work, please contact Aradia Dielli for a notecard on how to participate.

Leave it to Megg Demina of Chapeau tres Mignon to create yet another way for us to accessorize in a completely original way. I was a fan of Megg’s unusual accoutrements since I believe I first saw one in-world on the just as memorable, Mariya Nesiote. Megg’s wares are incredibly unique - adding so much to your avatar - literally from head to toe.

This is the new 1920’s Antique Headress -reminiscent of Megg’s Satyr necklace but with deep green beading, cameos and chocolate ribbons. Her note says, “While in Paris, drifting dreamily from room to room in the tiny 6th floor apartment of my grand-mere on rue de la Gaité, I discoverd a small box that contained this beautiful jet beaded cameo headress from the 1920’s…I imagine my grand-mere as a jeune fille, how pretty she must have looked!. I know you will also be tres tres jolie wearing it…non?”

Oui!

I was very excited to photograph it, and told Megg I needed to find the right dress to wear with it. She suggested Shai’s flapper dresses, and the Fern Gully dress from Casa del Shai seemed to fit the bill. The scripted skirt that gently lifts was perfect for the occasion, as was the rich green color, which I love with gold accessories.

One more shot and full list of credits after the jump…
