Fabulous Fashion with Angie Mornington
Monday at 6pm SLT doors open at 5:30pm SLT
****Special Edition: Celebrating Cancer Survivors in SL****
This week on a very special edition of Fabulous Fashion, I will have the pleasure of talking to some people who are doing some fantastic things in SL for Cancer awareness.
First up we have The American Cancer Society Makeover program, an inworld program helping residents in Second Life with virtual makeovers.
“Makeover Magic” is the Second Life equivalent of a real life program, “Look Good…Feel Better” – a free, community-based service in the USA that helps cancer survivors to restore their appearance and self-image during treatment.
Tonight please help me welcome Cinders Vale, Coordinator of the ACS Makeover Program as well as makeover participants Les Karsin and Dwen Dooley. They will share their experiences as cancer survivors in SL, and we will have some special models on hand to show us their makeovers as well.
For a special Accessories Segment, we’ll have two bloggers who are also showing their support for Breast Cancer awareness. Emery Milneaux and Sterling Jaxxon will be on hand to talk about the “31 days of Pink” Campaign, currently going on at the FashionCracked.com blog. Sterling is a breast cancer survivor, and the two of them have joined forces with several bloggers at FashionCracked.com to bring some pink and stylish awareness to the grid. Make sure you tune in, Emery and Sterling are bringing 5 models with them to show off some of the coolest pink themed outfits and accessories.
Please join our live audience this Monday at 6pm SLT at the Fabulous Fashion studio! Doors open at 5:30pm PDT.

Angie Mornington & Fabulous Fashion in New York Times
Angie Mornington the Host and Producer of Fabulous Fashion with Angie Mornington Features in the 22nd Oct 09 New York Times.
Fabulous Fashion with Angie Mornington is a Second Life TV Fashion Talk show produced by Perfect World Productions owned by Television Producer and Tonight Live host Paisley Beebe, and broadcast on the very popular Treet.tv on the Web and in Second Life. Perfect World Productions also produce Tonight Live with Paisley Beebe and the new Live Music Show Live n Kickin
Angie was approached by the Fashion Editor of the New York Times RUTH LA FERLA to talk about shopping and fashion in Second Life, the journalist who spent some 45 mins on the phone with Angie was astounded to find there a was a TV Talk show being filmed in Second Life and one that was all Fashion! Especially when you take in consideration that there is no such high profile TV show being done like Fabulous Fashion in Real Life. (why is that?)
The article also features Stiletto Moody Partner Jonty Glaser, Grazia Horwitz, and Vixie Rayna.
Its main focus is the proliferation of virtual goods in an economy where people are cutting back on real life luxuries.
This article comes after Fabulous Fashion with Angie Mornington has only been in production for a year.

ROCing With Ranena
This episode of Fabulous Fashion with Angie Mornington featured Ranena Olivier of ROC (Ranena Olivier Couture), and drew a diverse audience from around the grid. Many were already familiar with Ranena’s work and talents and were looking forward the hearing the interview. Also the popular Kay Fairey was back as the Guest Stylist. She always impresses people with her fashion finds.
( Shiruviana Relph and Willamina Fitzgerald )
Willamina Fitzgerald was in attendance this night after not having made it for awhile. This seemed to be a show she didn’t want to miss. “I like Ranena’s clothing and wanted to also see what Kay had for us today. I wandered in Ranena’s store one night and omg fell in love with her gowns. She is very talented. I like how Angie went back and showed the first thing she ever made in SL and how her work has progressed. Kay was great and I’m glad I came because she showed me some accessories and designers I may not have found.”
( Silvermane Trefusis, Miaa Rebane and blackLiquid Tokyoska )
The show has a large following, but naturally, not everyone can make the live show every week. The in studio audience, although having a collection of regulars, changes quite dramatically from week to week. Some come occasionally just to fit some relaxation in to their busy schedules, such as blackLiquid Tokyoska. “I am always interested to see what Fabulous Fashion TV is covering, it gives me a little while to relax, sit back and enjoy some fresh fashion commentary. I really like Ranena’s personal descriptions for her clothing. She is quite relatable and I really liked hearing about her inspiration.”
( Grazioso Alekseev )
Another part of the audience is often the designers mentioned during the style segment. So it wasn’t surprising to see Grazioso Alekseev, owner of Crie Style, present since Kay was presenting her glasses. Of course, they typically enjoy the rest of the show as well. “I visited Ranena’s store and enjoyed the designs of ROC fashion many times. I come to hear the passion of the designer. Their sense of design is very wonderful!! I wish to share wonderful times with many designers in SL.”

Fabulous Fashion with Angie Mornington on Treet TV
Monday, October 12th at 6pm SLT (PDT)
Tonight on Fabulous Fashion, I’ll have a chat with the wonderfully talented Ranena Olivier of ROC. I had the pleasure of wearing one of Ranena’s designs as a Guest Model at last month’s Ebony Fashion showcase. Ranena has a line of classy and elegant gowns and ensembles, which caters to the sophisticated divas out there who love to always look well put together. Make sure you stop by Ranena Olivier Couture the next time you go shopping!

**** Fabulous Fashion Accessories Spotlight: Kay Fairey****
Kay Fairey is back as this week’s Guest Stylist and as usual, she does not disappoint! One of the things I love about Kay is that she always brings accessories from designers that I have never heard of which makes the accessories segment even more exciting. Kay has a thorough knowledge of the Asian fashion community and her picks are always a treat.

Fans of Tyranny
Fabulous Fashion returned to its typical format this week, with Angie Mornington interviewing Tyr Rozenblum of Tyranny Designs. Tyranny Designs may not be a famous store with outlets all over the Second Life grid, but it was apparent from the audience that it has a loyal following of customers. And with this appearance on Fabulous Fashion, it’s likely that Tyr’s customer base will grow even more, as evidenced by several of the viewers who were unaware of her work.
( Harlee Lane )
Harlee Lane was present at the show and unfamiliar with Tyranny Designs beforehand. She was amply impressed with Tyr’s interview. “I’ve been enjoying the interview with Tyr. She’s just a delightful lady. Her designs are vibrant and unique, a reflection of her personality, and it’s nice she cares so much for her customers and values their opinions. She definitely has me as a new customer.”
( Anessa Stine, KawaiiNicole Piers, Terri Zhangsun )
Another person introduced to Tyr and her designs this night was that fixture of Second Life fashion, Anessa Stine. With her busy schedule it’s difficult to keep abreast of every designer, but she’s able to take advantage of Fabulous Fashion from time to time and hear from the guest designers. “Cute stuff, I don’t think I have seen it before. I don’t do much shopping these days. I liked her rationale for the expense of skins and promoting the charitable aspects of the skin and shape expo.” With the impression Tyr made on Harlee and Anessa among others, it’s no surprise that she has loyal customers.
( Mitch Wisent, Carissa Crimson )
One of Tyr’s fans present was Carissa Crimson. She has been a customer of Tyranny and was here to learn more about Tyr and enjoyed the interview. “I think it went well. It felt comfortable. I love Tyr’s stuff so it was great learning more about her. I think Angie does an amazing job of putting the guests at ease and she really knows what is important about fashion.”
Once again it was demonstrated how Fabulous Fashion helps to introduce lesser known designers to potential new customers and also helps existing customers connect with and learn about them. Many people are interested in the people behind the designs they purchase and it’s always interesting to hear how they got involved with Second Life design and to learn where they get their inspirations.

Content Theft – A Serious Issue
This past week, Fabulous Fashion decided to help bring notice to a serious issue that plagues content designers in Second Life. Content theft is something that many outside of content creation spend little time thinking about but has the potential to impact us all dramatically. The recent large scale theft of content at Rebel Hope is drawing some attention to this problem and hopefully shows such as this episode of Fabulous Fashion will draw even more and help others to understand the scale of the problem and concern of content creators. The studio had one of the largest audiences for this important topic and following are some comments about the show and this topic from a few of the attendants.
( RH Engel )
RH Engel, being connected to Rebel hope as a creator, is naturally upset with the recent theft, but is glad to see the issue getting coverage. ”I would like to say right now, that I have it is a fantastic topic for this show, it is viewed by so many. And we need to make people more aware of how this not only hurts content creators, but it hurts everyone in SL in the long run. Linden Labs does want to help, but personally, I don’t think they help as much as they should. What would SL be like, if all content creators stopped creating. It would be a waste land here.”
( Sofia Gray, Sasy Scarborough, Catty Loon )
Not surprisingly, many of those in attendance understood the seriousness of the issue and hope to see more attention brought to bear on it. Sasy Scarborough echoed much of RH Engel’s sentiment, “Content theft is a drain on not only the economy , but the creativity and passion of its residents. I have seen way too many stolen items being worn by so called fashionistas, and so many new residents, but it is no longer something that can be fobbed off, with a “I didn’t know ” they know and many don’t care. If you want to do your part , start inspecting everyone and get screenshots and report those wearing and using stolen content and educate yourself and your friends.”
( PennyWhistle Cameron, Kaervek Schultz )
It was also easy to find frustration on the part of some that the problem is still as big as it is. There is expectation that Linden Labs needs to do more to combat it. This is evident in the words of PennyWhistle Cameron, “I can’t believe Linden Labs isn’t more proactive in dealing with theft. The thieves need to be punished…land taken, accounts closed, inventory confiscated, money cleaned out, and alts traced to their original users. They’re willing to do cleanup, but continue to allow these tools to be used in the game.” And frustration often leads to hopelessness. Where people want to hope the more exposure will help curb the theft, doubt that things will improve remains, “I hope [this show] will [help]…but my gut instinct is it wont.”
