I always get a kick out of Adore & Abhor’s store name. It’s a clever euphonious riff on Love & Hate using assonance to make our ears smile. I am excited to see that Adore & Abhor are moving into mesh creation with this dress named Svelte, their first mesh dress that they developed for Cinema! the extravagant fashion showcase. The deep red with the contrasting darts is graphically bold and the cutaway bodice is sexy while holding everything in place.

In this composite you can see the dress from different angles and see the lovely, but subtle shading that gives it life. You can also get several good looks at the hotteriffic new shoes from Cherry. I love the buckles that give the shoes an edge. There’s just enough to punctuate the shoes without turning them into fetish wear.

I added bold earrings from Glow Studio. This red and black version was on sale at The Dressing Room in September. The fun hair style is a men’s cut from Dura paired with a MADesigns hairbase in red. Dura does not make a red, so I tinted their sienna and then dug around in my bases to find a good match.

I could not resist the wonderful SLink mesh hands that turn a pose with hands into something to show instead of hide. The skin is a current VIP Gift from PXL Creations. The rings are from Paper Couture and bracelets are from Kunglers and Leverocci.
