MISS SL ♛ 2020 - 5TH RUNWAY CHALLENGE: ANIMAL COUTURE - The Australian Mainland Tiger Snake. It is one of the most deadliest snakes on the planet.



As soon as you step off a plane Down Under, your life expectancy 
plummets - For Oz is one of the deadliest continents in the world 
known for its plethora of lethal exotic animals. 

One such indigenous creature is the Mainland Tiger Snake.


For this 5th Runway Challenge, Miss SL ♛Australia chose this exotic reptile 
for her country’s styling because of its virulent impact on Australian society. 
It is the fourth most deadly snake on the planet. 

Its powerful venom is a toxic cocktail far more lethal than cobras 
and even more poisonous than the black mamba. Depending on food source, 
they have been seen and measured over 2 meters in length.


In eastern Australia where there are lots of mice, Tiger Snakes are also aplenty. 
In the Melbourne suburbs alone, it is difficult to miss encountering 
these snakes in your daily life. 

Meet her SL-ithering friend “Hissy Fit,” (Challis Animated Body Snake). 

She loves to cuddle. However, Miss SL ♛ Australia must be extremely cautious 
when handling her. If bitten, she will start to feel intense pain in her neck 
and extremities, followed by numbness and profuse sweating. Paralysis 
sets in, and if not treated immediately, she will die. 


Miss SL ♛Australia wears a reptilian green Leda bodysuit by LYBRA, color-coordinated 
protective PFC Snakeskin Sleeves, L&H Akwete headwrap and gold earrings by Shi. 
She adorns a DOOM Venomous body tattoo and a beige biophilic Rebel Hope sarong. 

For cosmetics, she is wearing Stunning Eyeshadow by Booty’s, Glossy 
Lipstick from BELIER and gold Dark Passion Koffin Serpent Strike nails.
If Hissy strikes, Miss SL ♛Australia may just stomp her little brains out 
with these stout Addams Michele yellow platform heels.

SWANK Events May 2020 Introduces WILD Fashion & Beauty's BOHO NYC Top & Skirt Outfit - Embodying the free-spirited period of self-expression, love and peace with creative revolutionary pizazz.




When I look at this WILD Fashion Boho NYC Top & Skirt, I imagine myself 
being out in a meadow enjoying all of nature’s biophilic beauty, 
walking along serene paths which stir my faith, breaking me free 
from the worries attributed to daily workday stress.

This Bohemian styled dress embodies a casual, open-minded and free-spirited 
sense. In today’s modern society, the term Bohemian is synonymous 
with people who live unconventional and usually artistic lives.

Young Bohémienne: Natalie Clifford Barney (1875–1972) 
at the age of 10 (painting by Carolus-Duran)
Boho-chic is a style which draws upon history’s revolutionary cultural influences. 
The original "Bohemians," associated with the pre-Raphaelite art period, were gypsy 
travelers and refugees from central Europe during the mid-to-late 19th century. 

New York's Greenwich Village  has attracted many women with feminist ideals. 
It was also a magnet for bohemian culture during the early1960s.


That said, by its namesake label, this WILD Fashion Boho NYC Top & Skirt 
aptly draws reference to Greenwich Village’s cultural history.


Concurrent with the Greenwich Village phenomena was another hippie movement 
occurring on the West Coast of the United States. As the baby boomer generation 
reached the age of majority, the original 1967 "Summer of Love" Monterey 
Pop Festival became a popular anti-establishment event.

in Marin County, California (circa June 1967)
This hippie movement was associated with flower power, psychedelics, opposition 
to the Vietnam War, inventive music and flowing colorful bohemian fashions. 

The 1960’s Haight Ashbury District in San Francisco became known as the 
birthplace to the hippie movement and the home to revolutionary movements, 
spiritual groups and famous musicians, making it a focal point of creativity. 



Artists such as John Lennon and Yoko Ono and others congregated there from all 
over the world to experience the lifestyle. They helped push the boundaries 
of the hippie movement which origins came out of Haight Ashbury.


This WILD Fashion Boho NYC Top & Skirt Outfit comes with a wonderful 
Color and Texture HUD menu which reflects this magical period. It provides 10 solid blocked colors for the Top along with 15 different color/pattern choices for the Skirt.


So, when you adorn this WILD Fashion Boho NYC Top & Skirt Outfit, you are 
also embodying the free-spirited period of self-expression, love 
and peace with creative revolutionary pizazz.

SWANK Events May 2020 Premiers the LUXE PARIS Bohemian Rhapsody Dress - It captures the essence of your Free-thinking Gypsy Lifestyle.




The Bohemian style is often referred to as "boho" or "boho chic." It focuses 
on free and flowy fashions, natural fabrics, and earthy colors and patterns. 

Woodstock, Pennsylvania circa 1968 

The style was popularized during the 1960s and 1970s Hippie Movement, however 
its roots trace back much further with French and Czech historical influences.




This Luxe Paris Bohemian Rhapsody Dress captures the essence of this 
Boho Chic style with its playful color scheme of golden yellows, 
browns, magentas, turquoise greens and jades.

Defined as a care-free or unconventional lifestyle, Boho Chic is geared 
toward creativity, artistic expression, romantic ideals, and a flowing, 
“go-with-the-vibe” kind of attitude. 


The Bohemian lifestyle is all about living freely and expressing yourself uniquely.

The modern meaning of such a life is to live simply and without the 
stress associated with having material attachments. Love and 
being open-minded are important parts of the Bohemian lifestyle.

Joan Baez, Legendary Folk Music Hippie 
For, being open-minded and staying open to new ideas to improve the 
quality of your life, is at its fundamental roots.

It is also about letting go of hatred, learning to love everyone and 
developing a deep respect for other cultures and their distinct ways of life. 


The same also applies to each individual’s unique fashion sense. 
It is the Bohemian way of showing love and appreciation for other 
people and their distinct cultures. This LUXE PARIS Bohemian Rhapsody Dress 
captures and embodies the essence of this lifestyle.


I LOVE the details in this LUXE PARIS BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY DRESS and 
how Mika & Paris complemented the beautifully crafted and colorful fractal 
patterns in the skirt with that of the headband and bra. The matching 
golden mesh lacings of the layered top and skirt hem are fabulous! 


Luxe Paris also provides you with many choices in hair color to 
perfectly fit your complexion and personality.

So, get into that Volkswagon bus of yours and motor over to
Swank Events May 2020 
and pick up this cute LUXE PARIS BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY DRESS. 


Tell them Joan Baez and Bob Dylan sent you.

your high thigh contrasted against dark pantyhose stockings, 
it will do wonders for his concentration.

Swank Events May 2020 Introduces the MI.CO Gabriela Boho Skirt and Top - A Dress that Brings out the Beautiful Gypsy Inside of You



The bohemian style is more than just a fashion trend – it’s a cultural
revolution all by its own. This MI.CO Gabriela Boho Skirt and Top embodies
this spirit with its gorgeous, head-to-toe norm-breaking, free-spirited look.




The bohemian (or boho) style embodies an alternate, open-minded and
individualistic way of life. It represents a strong social attitude opposed
to everything from materialism to society’s customs.

Its cultural origins, often associated with that of the hippie movement during 

the ‘60s and ‘70s, is believed to have had its fashion counterculture 
roots in Europe in the 19th century.

 
History suggests that it was originally born out of the French Revolution, 

when many artistic people were driven into abject poverty and forced to 

wear old, worn out and unfashionable clothing.



Others argue that the original bohemians were the nomadic Romani people 
from an area of the Czech Republic called Bohemia, who rejected 
the mainstream and lived outside societal norms. 

Many were referred to as “Gypsies.”



Today, as evidenced by this fabulous MI.CO Gabriela denim Boho Skirt and 
Top, the bohemian movement has taken on a whole new meaning - 
incorporating new ethnic styles, including embroideries, 
fringe and flared silhouettes. 



This MI.CO Gabriela Boho Skirt and Top Pack provides you 
with several stylistic choices. Each piece comes with a HUD 
menu which enables you to create a variety of solid and 
floral patterned color combinations. 

Accessorizing this Gabriela outfit is both fun and effortless. That said, let the 
artistic Gypsy inside you style it with your own creative, fierce and unique personality.


The package also includes a marvelous HUD Driven Headband with Flowers
