Pose Appreciation: Status

Pose Appreciation Week is winding down and I hope all the bloggers highlighting the role of poses in their work have succeeded in their goal in highlighting the many good and great posers in Second Life. I could not participate in Pose Appreciation Week without highlighting Status Poses from Gidge. This is a new set from Status that has not even been released yet, though it will be available on Marketplace very soon. One of the reasons I love Status poses is the commitment to story-telling in Gidge’s work. Her poses are narrative poses, conveying mood, activity and drama. Many are snaps in mid-step, in the process of turning. While she does provide some of the standard fashion pose sets, her real passion is for slice-of-life poses. If you want a pose to tell a story, Status is the place to start looking first.

My dress is from Loovus Dzevavor and with the bold print, color-blocking, and the sleeveless shift shape, it channels the style of 1960s Carnaby Street in London. It’s available in several bold prints and colors.

Cherry has just released new earrings and bracelets with bold circles that were just a perfect complement to the print. The hair, from Lelutka, has that bouffant lift that also gives a nod to that era.

My skin is a new release from Amacci. I chose one of the options with the dramatic eye liner to continue the retro look. This skin comes with a shape that highlights its Asiatic features, though I think it works well on my more European shape.
