I had the pleasure to interview her.
Oema: When did you first become interested in fashion in Second Life?
Anuska: I logged on to Secondlife for the first time in 2007 and although I love fashion in RL I was not interested in it until 2010 when I saw people around me making pictures for blogs, with those beautiful avatars. So in that time begin to improve my avatar and being interested in fashion but it was in 2014 that I opened my style blog.
Oema: How do you keep up with the latest trends in Second Life fashion?
Anuska: Well, actually I´m blogging for many events so I have access to designer products and I make an idea of what it’s trendy in each round, but Seraphim it’s my main fashion info media source.
Oema: Can you walk us through your creative process when putting together an outfit for a blog post or photo shoot?
Anuska: At first it’s madness, lol! cause I don’t have as much time as I wish, so I make an excel with all my sponsors and events, and I try to combinate the most number of products that I can; I think of a theme and set up a scene, then I just do pictures and pictures with many ideas (maybe of 50 pictures I use 3). Lately, I’ve been making a lot of decor pictures, cause I feel comfy, maybe it’s cause it’s my job on RL.
Oema: Who are some of your favorite Second Life fashion designers and why?
Anuska: Uff! this is not an easy question… I have a lot of favorite designers, but I gonna answer with heart, cause I´ve been working with them for years and I think they are really talented and the quality of their products it’s awesome. Sunami Beck from EMERY, Erratic Rain from ERRATIC, Harry Hyx from ISON, Nata Fluffpaw from TETRA Julliette Westerburg from TRES BLAH and Zaara Kohime from ZAARA are some of them.
Oema: How important is it for you to stay true to your personal style while also incorporating new trends into your looks?
Anuska: Stay true to my Style it’s ALL. Times and fashion change, although I personally think that in fashion all it’s almost invented, only change the way you mix the clothing pieces, I think it’s mandatory to have your personal style, the essence of how express yourself, without falling into the way of how others do.
Oema: Can you share any tips for new Second Life fashion bloggers on building an audience and growing their platform?
Anuska: The only tip that I can give is being persistent, if they really love to blog, continue with their work without the pressure of likes or views, and stay faithful as well as their personal style.
Oema: What challenges have you faced as a fashion blogger in Second Life and how have you overcome them?
Anuska: Blogging on Second Life has been like therapy for me, at the beginning my comfy zone caused external causes of my RL life. So I couldn’t say any negative about this experience, but if I had to say something that “frustrated” me it’s when I don’t know how to express my ideas due to lack of technique in photoshop, but this it’s like all in the life, if you want something, you have to improve forget it, so I saw a lot of tutorials on youtube of PS.
Oema: How do you see Second Life fashion evolving in the future?
Anuska: I see less and less fashion in SL If we talk of high fashion. Now the public consumes more and wear fewer clothes.
Oema: What are your favorite Second Life fashion events or experiences that you’ve had?
Anuska: I’m a very fan of my actual events, but a memorable experience is when I received a Collabor88 invite was a super special moment for me, and I thought wow! Is this true?. I remember it with a lot of warmth. I’m currently working with close friends on the Dubai event which it’s a project where we are giving our best. So could I say it’s my favorite event because are personal and affective implications? (I’m a very emotional person, lol).
Oema: Lastly, what advice would you give to someone who is just starting out in Second Life fashion and wants to make a name for themselves in the community?.
Anuska: A little more of what I said, just be they without influences, and follow their instinct, and super important! be insistent and sure of their ideas. Being original it’s always a good idea, the best I think.
Experience the awe-inspiring exhibit of “Circles” by Gina Broono and DragonAngelvs’
AI-generated art, the Eroticus series.
“Circles” by Gina Broono and DragonAngelvs’
Gina Broono is a licensed architect and an art enthusiast who practices her craft in the captivating world of Second Life. Her work in architecture is heavily inspired by the minimalist designs of Tadao Ando, the creative engineering of Santiago Calatrava, the undulating lines of Zaha Hadid, the organic designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, and the engineering genius of Elon Musk.
However, her first love since the age of six has been fashion design, which prompted her parents to enroll her in a music and art school at the tender age of nine. After a year of film making and photography studies and realizing the challenges of fashion design, Gina arrived at architecture as a field of study. While still interested in fashion design, she enjoys watching fashion week haute couture presentations and marveling at the styles people create in Second Life, including designers like Rick Owens.
Gina’s latest exhibit, “Circles”, was inspired by a gracious invitation from Mr. Hermes Kondor, owner of the Kondor Gallery, to create an exhibit at a platform on his sim in the virtual sky. Her goal was to create a womb-like space that is protective, subdued, and relaxing while visually shielding viewers from the various skyboxes visible from the site.
The egg-shaped blue space has concentric circles above and below its transparent striped floor, representing reality on the lower level with a curvy, realistic female creation by Precious Restless, reclining and dreaming of being like the beautiful avatars dancing above.
Gina was also inspired to create the space to showcase DragonAngelvs’ AI-generated art, the Eroticus series, as well as to provide a platform for his original musical compositions.
DragonAngelvs is a self-taught Italian artist with a passion for artistic experimentation and strong themes, incorporating subliminal messages in his works to lead the observer to question various philosophical and metaphysical readings.
His works are a conception of female beauty in a fantasy and almost divine mystical key with chromatic work on psychedelic tones of color and composition, using various technologies including AI, digital painting, and recoloring with post-effects production.
DragonAngelvs‘ intricate feminine composition with references to Klimt and Art Deco decorations is a challenge in the gaze of the female who seduces him and puts in new art-style decorations, with a paradoxical concept of feminine beauty using contrasting and decisive colors.
His original music can be found on YouTube and Flickr.
Together, Gina Broono and DragonAngelvs have created an exhibit that is truly breathtaking. The combination of Gina’s architectural expertise and DragonAngelvs’ artistic vision has resulted in a stunning exhibit that will leave you feeling inspired and motivated. Don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience this innovative and captivating virtual art exhibit.

“I am a licensed architect and a lover of art who solely practices within the captivating realm of Second Life. My architectural work and interests primarily center around minimalism, which is inspired by the stark and austere concrete shapes of Tadao Ando, the innovative and creative engineering marvels of Santiago Calatrava, the undulating lines of Zaha Hadid, the organic designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, and other notable architects, culminating with the engineering genius of Elon Musk.
Fashion design has been my passion since the tender age of six. My parents noticed my artistic abilities and enrolled me in a music and art school when I was nine years old. While studying film making and photography for a year, I realized the challenging nature of fashion design and eventually transitioned to studying architecture. Despite this shift, I still hold a keen interest in fashion design and enjoy observing haute couture presentations during fashion week. I find myself drawn to the work of designers such as Rick Owens and am equally captivated by the fashion styles that people showcase in Second Life.”

Dragon (dragonangelvs) – Biography
“I am an Italian artist who is self-taught and has a strong passion for artistic experimentation and powerful themes. My artworks always contain subliminal messages that encourage the observer to question the various philosophical and metaphysical interpretations of my artistic creations. My influences are drawn from the masters of abstract painting and futurism, with hints of impressionism, and I use bold and contrasting colors.
Regarding the meanings of my artworks, I strive to depict female beauty in a fantastical and almost divine mystical manner, through my use of psychedelic tones of color and composition. In creating my art, I have utilized various technologies, including artificial intelligence, digital painting, and recoloring, with post-production effects.”
If there’s one thing that Ilyra Chardin wants to impart with her “No Strings” installation, it’s that we all have the power to break free from the things that bind us and unleash our true potential. Through her art, music, lyrics, and story, Ilyra takes us on a metaphorical journey of awakening and self-actualization, embodied by the puppet-character, “Strings.”
No Strings Attached
The installation is divided into three parts, each with its own song and message. In “The Awakening – Strings Unbound,” we see Strings as she rests against the wall, resolute and determined to stop the violence. It’s a powerful opening that sets the tone for the rest of the journey.
In “The Journey (aka The Struggle),” we witness the difficult road towards change. Strings gathers her energy and pulls herself up, accompanied by the song, “We Can Find a Way.” It’s a reminder that change is never easy, but it’s always worth the effort.
Strings Unbound – The Struggle
Finally, in “The Joy – Self-Actualization,” Strings succeeds after hard work and through difficult times.
Strings Unbound – The Joy
The section opens with the song, “Empathy,” which highlights the importance of connection and understanding. It’s a beautiful culmination of the journey, reminding us that we can all achieve self-actualization if we work hard and believe in ourselves.
Empathy
Two sculptures set outside at the entrance of the installation further emphasize the messages of empathy and the weight of responsibilities. “Empathy” depicts the interrelationship between a first responder, a field worker, and the viewer, while “Burdened” shows a woman trying to rise up against the weight of her many responsibilities. These sculptures perfectly complement the themes of the installation and make for a thought-provoking experience.

The relationship between Art and Fashion in Second Life
In recent years, this relationship has become even more pronounced with the rise of digital platforms like Second Life. Here, users can create avatars, explore virtual worlds, and even build clothing and fashion designs.
Second Life allows fashion designers and artists to showcase their work uniquely, allowing them to reach a wider audience and build a following beyond the physical world.
For example, many fashion designers have created virtual storefronts in Second Life where users can browse and purchase their designs. Artists can also create virtual galleries and exhibits, displaying their work to a global audience.
Second Life also allows for experimentation and play, which is also something that is highly valued in the art and fashion worlds. Users can take risks with their designs and push the boundaries of what is considered fashionable without the financial risk of producing physical garments.
Furthermore, the virtual world also allows for greater accessibility and inclusivity. Second Life will enable users with disabilities or mobility issues to participate in the fashion and art worlds who may have been excluded from the physical world.
In conclusion, the relationship between art and fashion has been dramatically enhanced by the rise of virtual platforms such as Second Life. These platforms allow for greater experimentation, inclusivity, and audience reach, and they will continue to shape the relationship between art and fashion in the future.
Revolutionizing the Fashion Industry: The Rise of Virtual Fashion Shows in Second Life
One of the most exciting ways fashion and art intersect in the virtual world of Second Life is through virtual fashion shows. These shows allow designers and brands to showcase their latest collections uniquely and engagingly, reaching audiences that may not be able to attend physical fashion shows in the real world.
Virtual fashion shows in Second Life can be highly interactive, allowing users to walk the runway alongside the models, get a close-up look at the designs, and even purchase the collection in real-time. This level of engagement can be incredibly effective in promoting a brand and building a following.
For example, many top fashion brands and designers have started incorporating virtual fashion shows into their real-world marketing strategies. This allows them to reach a wider audience and connect with potential customers who may not have been able to attend physical fashion shows in the past.
Virtual fashion shows in Second Life also allow for greater experimentation and creativity. Designers can push the boundaries of what is considered fashionable and create designs that may not be possible in the real world. This can help build excitement and buzz around a brand and lead to increased sales.
Additionally, virtual fashion shows in Second Life can also be highly cost-effective. Compared to the high costs of producing a physical fashion show, virtual plays can be made at a fraction of the cost, which can be especially beneficial for emerging designers and independent brands.
In conclusion, virtual fashion shows in Second Life are a powerful tool for promoting fashion brands and designers. They allow for greater experimentation, audience reach, and interactivity and can be highly cost-effective. As technology advances, virtual fashion shows will likely become an increasingly important part of the fashion industry.
Unleashing the Power of Art: Strategies for Promoting Your Clothing Store
In conclusion, a clothing store looking to promote itself through art can use various strategies. One practical approach would be collaborating with local artists and designers to create unique, limited-edition pieces that can be sold in the store. This not only helps to promote the store but also supports the local art community.
Another strategy would be to host art exhibitions or fashion shows in the store or to create a virtual storefront in Second Life. These events can be used to showcase new collections and to build excitement and buzz around the store.
Another helpful strategy would be integrating art into the store’s overall aesthetic and branding. This can be done by commissioning murals or installations for the store or by incorporating art into the store’s visual merchandising.
Finally, a clothing store can use social media and online platforms to promote itself and its art collaborations. By sharing images of new pieces and events on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok, and by creating an online presence through a website and virtual storefronts, a store can reach a wider audience and build a following of loyal customers.
By combining these strategies, a clothing store can effectively promote itself through art, build a strong brand, and connect with customers in meaningful ways.
