The Grid, Unraveled. Episode 2: Second Life shopping events as a phenomenon

Street Wear Live presents

THE GRID, UNRAVELED

Street Wear Live in-world @ Second Life | Facebook | Google+ | YouTube channel

Host: K.T. Burnett (kayt)

Voice panel:

Abbyrose Abbot – apparel creator (Belladonna Couture)
Jolene Carami – apparel creator (ENTICE), shopping event manager (The Makeover Room)
Kira Rinkitink (kira.paderborn) – apparel creator (ENTICE, Styles by Kira), shopping event founder (The Makeover Room)
Suki Rexen – modeling organization CEO (Model’s Workshop)

We have discussed:
– What is more preferrable to the designer – fashion events or runway shows;
– How fashion events influence their business;
– What does it take to participate in a multitude of fashion events at the same time;
– How modeling industry can chime in on the field and make their contribution to this brand new phenomenon;
– And many, many more!

What happens when the apparel designer who is straight up for fashion events meets another designer and a model organization CEO whom the fashion events business hurts significantly? Can they come to a compromise, or do they stick to their guns until the end? That is what we have found out on Sunday 25th at the “Fashion events as a phenomenon” talk at The Grid, Unraveled. Two completely opposite points of view meet to bring in the arguments in favour of their position. And what a conversation it was! Big thanks to the audience for their input, too!

The next discussion will take place and be filmed on Sunday, October 9th. Keep an eye in Events for it, or better yet, join the Street Wear Live in-world subscriber (located here) to be notified about all the upcoming Street Wear Live shows!

[Announement] “Second Life shopping events as a phenomenon” – The Grid, Unraveled

When: 2016/09/25, 11 AM SLT
Length: 1 hour
Hosted by: K.T. Burnett (KayT Resident)

We are discussing:
Second Life shopping events as a phenomenon

All the fashionistas of Second Life cannot stay indifferent to the multitude of shopping events that have absorbed the Grid – and the new ones keep appearing each month. Designers work day and night to bring in new apparel items in time for the events they participate in. Residents hardly keep up their Linden Dollars balance with all the new releases, exclusives, deals, that they cannot resist missing. The Second Life Destination Guide has a separate “Shopping Events” category now. How come they got so popular in such a short timespan? Is this what Second Life really needs? What purpose do shopping events serve for residents who choose to create them, participate in them and/or shop at them? Are there possible alternatives to shopping events to achieve the same goals they do, so we can have some variety on the fashion events field?

We will be having a panel of special guests who will share their experience on the field – and you, the audience, will be able to take part in the conversation via chat.

Cannot make it to the show? It will be recorded and posted on the YouTube Street Wear Live Channel, so you will not miss it.

So, mark September 25th on you calendar and join the discussion at the place where you will be heard!
