If you've never attended a virtual fashion show, LUXE Paris is offering you a golden opportunity to perfect your SL education: the LOOK of the YEAR grand finale, which will be held on September 8th at 9:30 AM SLT!
And if you're already a fan of Second Life runways, you probably know that the LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR contest finale is one of the great fashion spectacles to see!
Created 10 years ago by LUXE Paris, the LOOK of the YEAR contest aims to find the best possible ambassador for the famous brand. But it's also an excellent excuse to create a great fashion moment.
On stage, eleven passionate and exciting finalists who will compete in beauty and creativity in the hope of winning the prestigious title of LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR and the impressive prize pool of L$50,000 cash!
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.
Starring on the 2024 LOOK of the YEAR runway: Ame Morningstar, Aria Absinthe, Catsmeow17 better known under the pseudonym of Kitty, EleanorJean, Girasolmx, Jude Tatham, Keira Rhapsody, Tilly Opaline, TwinkieBean, VanessaJane66 and gentleman WyattFrost!
Selected from hundreds of applications, the 11 greats distinguished themselves not only by their beauty and style but also by their ambassadorial qualities.
"The Judges' Brunch, which took place a few weeks ago, gave us a lot of information about the personality and communication skills of each of the finalists," explain Mika Palmyra and Parisian Skytower, the co-owners and chief designers of LUXE Paris.
"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.
A MAGNIFICENT SPECTACLE IN A GRANDIOSE SETTING
Beyond the competition and the bouquet of emotions that goes with it, LUXE Paris will also offer us a magnificent fashion show in a sumptuous setting created by Lorez Aichi and enhanced by the lush nature of Hayabusa Design.In the background, five fashion icons who have particularly inspired LUXE Paris during its twelve years of existence: Jade Pono, a beautiful and sparkling Japanese lady, winner of LOOK of the YEAR 2022, taken by cancer last winter, the living legend Ponchituti Boucher, nicknamed "The Mother of all Models" because she discovered so many runway stars, the fabulous Zuri Rayna, jewelry designer in Second Life since 2017 and official jeweler of the competition, the extraordinary Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel who still influences fashion half a century after her death, and the unforgettable Frolic Mills, great pioneer of the SL fashion industry, magnificent character, also sadly gone.
The finalists will interpret the fashion style of these icons with LUXE Paris clothes and Zuri jewels. The judges will evaluate the finalists on their presence on stage, the quality of their look, their way of presenting LUXE Paris fashion and their ability to respond to a specific fashion order, since the icons were assigned to the finalists randomly. The performance of the finalists at the Judges Brunch will also be taken into account to evaluate their communication skills. LUXE Paris is looking for an ambassador after all!
