Mochi Milena finally came out with her appliers for Maximillion Grant’s Alex mesh head for Logo, a head that accepts Omega appliers, which has become a boon to the mesh head market. Mochi has shown that with artistry and skill, you can make a good shape look great, especially with a wide range of tones and several makeup options in the HUD, including thinner and plumper lips (if you find you want your lipstick to lie a few pixels in). I applied it to the Alex head, which is the head Mochi used when designing the skin but then I couldn’t resist trying it on the Chloe head as well, which was recently rereleased with Omega capabilities as well. Both heads look glorious with the skins. And of course, I had to use the various expressions HUDs to test the makeups’ versatility.

This blog entry was really supposed to be about the Maximillion Grant’s mesh heads paired with Mochi Milena’s skin appliers, but let’s talk about the dress too. In perfectly crafted mesh, ValentinaEvangelista has made this tight shiny latex-lovers’ dress for ROMP. It’s a kinky sexy dream of a dress, not showing as much skin as suggesting containment, restraint, and sexiness. Paired with Glamistry’s newest strappy heels, it’s a sexy look. Topping it with one of Thora Charron’s just-released styles at Lelutka was easy to do, especially with her wide range of great colors and textures. More forthcoming.And AvaGardnerKungler’s earrings for On9 glam it up just that little bit more.

ValentinaEvanglista actually offers this dress in two versions, one plain (yet hardly “plain”) and the other with derogatory words on it to mimic the outfits Amber Rose and Blac Chyna wore to the MTV Video Music Awards. I get the point of the dresses but it’s a fine line from wearing “bitch” or “slut” on my dress as a political statement (and in their case, a publicity stunt) and wearing it on a necklace around my neck or on a septum piercing or worse, tattooed on my skin, even my virtual skin. (I guess my point is, I ain’t wearing it. Being a woman doesn’t make me a bitch or a slut.) When we have suits that say “privileged and brutal white boy arrogant dick” worn by the Donald Trumps of the world maybe I will feel more comfortable.
