Hello Dear readers, In this edition of Virtual Diva Magazine, we are honour to have the oportunity to interview a fabulous designer with a unique and sophisticated style. Hello Nayomi?Thank you for taking time to do this interview with us Now lets talk about 1st of all about you as Model you really are fantastic and one of the most prestigious model, tell us about it how did you start in modeling? First of all, thanks for the invitation, it’s a
ion. My most recent work and achievements was to be one of Finesmith’s Four Muses in 2014 and be named Miss Color of Couture 2015, I also participated in MVW 2016 representing China this time and stay in 3runner-up. I got said your stylings are just fantastic, total perfection how do you work in that?
14
pleasure! I started in 2010 when I was selected to be one of the BLVD models at the time the agency was still run by Frolic Mills, and soon after I participated in BOSL FASHION WEEK 2010, at the time the designers gave more value to the fashion shows so it was A great expectation for the weeks of fashion and inclusively to know which models were parading so to be part was very important for my career, soon after I participated in several contest getting in good positions was in 2011 that I became MVW candidate representing my country Brazil, I participated in several fashion campaigns and fash-
First of all is to understand what is being asked, you need to clearly have some real-life fashion sense and research enough elements to assemble a composition. Usually when I’m creating something for a challenge, or to go somewhere I always try to get out of the ordinary, I always go with the intention of being the different always out of my comfort zone.
”I do not want to leave that flame That burns inside of me goes out, is really something that I could not stop totally...”
What do you enjoy the most modeling or desing? Modeling is my passion, I have always been a model and this is something that runs in my blood is indescribable the feeling of preparing for a parade and see in the end all involved happy by the work done. Being a designer was an attempt that went well and became a passion, today I can say that I have fashion as my husband and my creations as my lover.
“I’m always trying to live as intensely as I can....” Wish one was the favorite style you ever made? The preferred style I’ve already created was for the Color Of Couture 2015 contest inspired by Chinese designer Mao Geping, my idea was to create something very dramatic and extravagant as his real life creations, I did a mix of various designers and I felt that I was able to create something according to my original idea, I was so sure of this style that I felt unbeatable, when I created this style I could see that I was doing something really well. I felt happy! Are you still modeling? I still do some isolated appearances, I’m a little bit away because of my store, and because of the rush of real life, because it’s very complicated to reconcile all the dates, but I have plans to return from participating in something I do not want to leave that flame That burns inside of me goes out, is really something that I could not stop totally. Fantastic and talking about your brand its a very unique concept how did you come up with this idea how will define it? My hair is original, I took a class in real life to learn how to create, I have some licenses, partnerships that help me, plus the initial concept of my store is avant garde, but sometimes I find myself mixed in different styles, you will find in my store hair for all times I seek to be eclectic and create what comes to mind and of course always researching what is in current fashion. I try to get that old passion for hair, I did not create this store to create simple things, I look for the different, I really like to relive the styles of the past, I like the exotic, I like to see people using my hair and feeling unique, are not like most stores that make basic hair I really do not want to be like that.
15
And how did you get inspired to do this kind a of hairs?
I’m always looking at fashion magazines and researching hair news, most of the time I stop in front of the computer and start copying real life creations, but sometimes I look for inspiration and create something totally new and incredible. How did you get into designs and of course to make your own brand?
I was talking to a friend in Second Life, she told me that I was desperate because I needed a hair for a certain challenge and I d had already done my classes in blender but had not put into practice yet and did not even know if I really wanted to create hai I decided to go crazy, and it was super success. Do you remember the first Hair you ever did?
Yes, the first hair I created officially received the name of SPRING, and it was a success I saw several avatars using and taking p I still have him in the store is surely one of my babies. Talk to us about your creating process, what inspire you?
I create all the hair in Blender that is one of the main programs of creation, has bigger ones and with more tools, but Blender but it is something that I like very much to do, it is very pleasant. What inspires me is what is around me, people, fashion , Eve There are a lot of designers out there, in several fashion areas and models too, what would be your advice,?
My advice is, get out of your comfort zone, always seek to evolve and grow in your work do everything with a lot of love and a A lot new things are going in Second life right now, lots of changes what kind of impact has this in you?
I see and feel the changes a long time, much has changed in fashion since my inception in 2010 to the present day great even fashion shows this is total my opinion for being a person who lives and breathes fashion. There is no more investment in fashi this will change and improve over time. As a designer I see great developments in the creation process, I just think we need m What are you plans for the Future?
I usually live the present, the future for me is the now I’m always trying to live as intensely as I can, when I was a model I live continue to create and show my work to all who believe in it.
Our readers would love to know a few things about you personally. I have a little word game that has become tradition, so i w Yes of course! Night or day? Night Favorite Music? Aladdin - A Whole New World Second Life for you is? One Life. A moment you will keep with you forever as a designer? The first recognition message from a client. The feeling you get when you done a new design hair or jewelry ? Joy! Size of the bed you sleep? Oh jesus, I need to measure this lol, I think two meters. What do you enjoy it the most? Listen music while I’m creating. One think you havent done in Sl.? Have a baby lol I would like to thank you very much for your time on this interview. Do you have any final words for our readers?
I want to tell everyone who dreams of being a model or a designer, for both of these things you need to like what you do and d not come that way easy. Thank you! Doing this allows me to provide better quality to my clients. I study about the textures as 16

did not have it in Second Life, at the same time I said show me the photo of that hair I try to create for You, at this moment I ir. So I created the hair for her and it was cool, I liked it and she told me why you do not try to create hair, I was a little afraid

nts and developments. I feel scared sometimes with the direction of some things in Second Life, as for example the issue of ion, this is something that scares me, people seem to lose interest in fashion shows and everything that involves, I hope that more support in the copyright issue I think we are still very vulnerable to this.
e this life with great force, now as a designer I try to live even more strongly. But what I can wish for my future is that I can

Armani’s spring-summer 2017 men’s collection. The show was opened with a graphic top that displayed an oversized fingerprint. get the look Angel DELUXE Camouflage-Hoodie-MESH *_*EF*_* Hair.0.3
A symbol of a digital imprint, a jacquard eagle joined the fingerprint as key visuals for the season. Defining a contemporary style code for the urban dweller, Armani served up performance silhouettes inspired by athletic garments. Silks, wools and cashmeres helped to elevate the collection’s easy wardrobe. Built around daily essentials, Emporio Armani unveiled a lineup of relaxed bombers, graphic t-shirts, patterned suiting, dashing peacoats and slouchy trousers. Bags, jackets and boots were embroidered military patches, another form of identity, that´s why We like it! Armani is simplicity and luxury… One day maybe Armani´ll enter as Designer in Grid… one day boys! Get the look Personal Design “fingerprint”
Exploring the idea of the individual, Emporio Armani’s spring-summer 2017 show is opened with a fingerprint adorned shirt. Second Life… “be different” But Armani is not “available” as brand in SL, We can made the difference “searching for” virtual brands who have the concept as the Italian designer. Men in SL belong to a tribe or a clan. Fashionista people too. Giorgio Armani has an identity that has helped shape our modern perception of menswear. Many designers and Stylists in Second Life trying to rebuild the concept. ?

Garden of Dreams is an enchanting and relaxing landscape. It has areas for dance, for relaxation, for appointments and cuddles also has shops and Dram Scene Skyboxes. All sites are easily accessible by teleport, located at the entrance of the Sim. This Sim, very impressive, has so many plants, shrubs and decorations, mainly for the autumn. The charming atmosphere makes this incredibly relaxing and familiar landscape. Characteristic of this place, are the huge and giant trees which lend a magical atmosphere and live for facial peculiarity carved on the trunk. On top of these huge trees, the seats are placed, on which you can admire the entire landscape in total peace and solitude, alone or with your partner. The places to dance are spacious and furnished in a very romantic. This place is great attention to detail, you can also cross inside a trunk to get a plot of land, with dance area, fireside with seating and a fabulous view of the sea, from which it is possible to see, on the horizon, a suggestive mountain landscape. It also has also a structure used as Auditorium, very comfortable and familiar. I recommend you do not change the default light already set, because, it is extremely well suited to this land, from the romantic and autumn weather. 69
