What's In My Closet - Paper Couture!

When it comes to Second Life Couture, there is just something magical about "Paper Couture". The Lu sisters are endlessly attentive to details and use all the system layers to perfection, with intricate and wonderful prim work, and quality texturing and hand-painting, there is simply nothing else like it. I have loved collecting these outfits to wear, but also because I think they are a form of art. Similar to the best Couturier in real life, these are collectible pieces, and what makes these outfits so brilliant, is that you can pull them apart and use pieces in other looks in your wardrobe so easily. Gown, Outfits, Shoes, Jewelry, Handbags... all done with that quality designer touch you would expect from a shop with "Couture" in the name. (Note: This term is bandied about all together too much in SL, I once saw someone label a slingshot bikini as "Couture", seriously people!)
