BOSL Kicks Off Fashion Week With GIZZA Designs and Set by Bryn Oh- Fashion Week Continues This Week

Today I attended the initial 2011 BOSL Fashion Week show with set by Bryn Oh and designs by GIZZA. First of all everyone knows I love GIZZA designs and you can see the outfits in the pics. But one of the things I really enjoy about fashion week is the presentation. Bry Oh did it in grand style setting the standards high for the rest of the week. The audience filled before the show started and attendees were seated in shopping carts of all things! It was great fun and the comments about cart races and getting pushed around showed everyone was really enjoying this seating. Meanwhile large blocks were dropping regularly, well irregularly from the sky sometimes in large groups and other times singularly often even landing on people but soon to disappear for new random rounds of dropping blocks. I wish I had flipped on my fraps for a video. THEN to top it off Bryn made a changing stage/runway that must have been the first of it's kind. If you have seen the Linden Lab Avatar games the movement of the runway stairs was of similar design in that the models had to walk up and down winding ever changing staircase to get to the stopping destination. They all maneuvered this wonderfully, but I had to wonder if it was difficult, for as they walked the stairs in front and behind them were constantly moving, dropping out from under them etc. The stairs themselves were black and white colored resembling piano keys. The show was broadcast live on www.Metaversetv.com/live/

In the end I took way too many photos for no apparent reason, so decided to just make a slide show of them. Here you go.

So BOSL Fashion Week is well under way and here is the final press release and schedule of events.

"Grab your totes; gird up your corsets, and dress to impress! The Style Armageddon is upon us! The final runway rapture is looming. Welcome to BOSL FASHION WEEK 2011! You are about to embark on a fashion journey that will inspire and rejuvenate: and nobody is immune!

The cacophony of conflicting trends, impossibly chic styles, and fashion “must haves” is bigger and louder than ever! This year we break the mould, as you witness the most titillating, tumultuous, fabulously haute couture, gloriously glam-obsessed, deliciously deranged, and relentlessly entertaining week of fashion to hit the grid!

Cutting-edge, trend-making, dazzling sets that will overwhelm the senses, built by premier SL architects and award winning artists. The grid’s top models show us their fashion-savvy styling talents and choreography, and both SL and RL fashion designers present their latest fashion designs that run the gamut from sophisticated elegance, to dark decadence, to adventurous avant-garde, to abstract couture, to “comic book couture,” to a walk-back-in-time tribute to SL’s fashion industry.

We also get our first look at the Official Candidates for the 2012 MISS VIRTUAL WORLD Pageant. It’s all here to be experienced and savoured for one week only…

You DARE NOT miss one minute of BOSL FASHION WEEK 2011!"
