TEN WOMEN FINALISTS AND ONE BRAVE MAN!
Ten women and one man! Indeed, the LOOK of the YEAR 2024 competition was, for the first time, open to men. If they seemed a little destabilized by the unisex formula of the competition, one brave man still managed to reach the final, among all these spectacular female beauties.

"They all gave a short speech on their vision of the ambassador role and the jury also had the opportunity to question them."
AN IMPOSING JURY FOR A FAIR DECISION
Sixteen judges make up the LOOK of the YEAR jury and it is the same jury that selects the semi-finalists, finalists and winners.
"We wanted an imposing jury that was present throughout the competition in order to promote a fair decision," emphasizes Mika Palmyra.
The LOOK of the YEAR jury is also diverse with members who come from different creative backgrounds such as media, music, fashion and design in general: Adonis Lubomir, Owner of Swank Events and the famous groups Womenstuff and Menstuff, Avalon Chrome, LOOK of the YEAR 2020 and now designer at LUXE Paris, Blueyes Bonetto, Music Director of LOOK of the YEAR events, Chemak Kamala, Owner/editor of the Spanish community magazine SL Confidencial, Dante Lisa, Owner of Miss & Mister Elegance and CEO Elégance Model Agency, Diana Balhaus, Co-owner of One On One Agency, producer of LOOK of the YEAR events, Hunipet Delicioso, current LUXE Paris ambassador and LOOK of the YEAR crown holder, Hyacinte, LUXE Paris Communications Director, Lanai Jarrico, Owner/Editor of Second Life’s longest-running news source The SL Enquirer, Lali Arbizu, Co-Owner of One On One Agency and LOOK of the YEAR Finalists Coordinator, Mitsuko Kytori, Owner/Designer of Hayabusa Design, SL’s most beautiful plants, Naar Absinthe, LOOK of the YEAR 2017 and Owner of In-Nova Academy, Ponchituti Boucher, Co-Owner of One On One Agency and LOOK of the YEAR Executive Producer, and Zuri Rayna, LOOK of the YEAR’s official jeweler.

LAST CHANCE to PARTICIPATE

This week, we invite participants to create a LUXE Paris look for the unforgettable Frolic Mills, one of the founders of Second Life fashion industry, who died of cancer last winter.
