I am not sure what the creators of the US Capitol sim were trying to say with all the fog rising from the steps leading up to the Capitol. Are they implying that our Congress is so full of hot air from meaningless speeches and grandstanding that fog rises right out of the sidewalk? Perhaps it’s a reference to the Foggy Bottom neighborhood, but that’s the State Department, not Congress. (For non-American readers, Washington DC was quite brilliantly built on a swamp)
Whatever their intent, my intent was to look sharp when I went to visit Congress, so I grabbed a lovely suit from DeGroot Casuals.
Sometimes the beauty of a dress is so self-evident that any attempt to describe it merely detracts from your pleasure in seeing the designer’s marriage of art and design and her balancing of the challenges of phantom flexi-prims with the demands of fashion. The Kungler Couture Passion of the Black Swan dress by AvaGardner Kungler is exactly that sort of dress. This is a dress that can take your breath away, so just sit back and enjoy the ride.
When I first took this dress from Digit Darkes out of the box, it made me think of stars twinkling among the scudding clouds ona moonlit night. The sky is seldom black when the moon and clouds are out, clear nights give you black skies, but those cloudy nights the sky can be the color of pewter. So, I designed to shoot this dress in the clouds – which is the material Digit must have used to spin this dress – it floats like a cloud.
