New Designer: Shai Guys
October 8th, 2006 at 11:49pm Nicholas Shaftoe
In a bout of not so coincidental sychronicity, I noticed a new line of menswear on the SL Forums, just as Barnes was dropping a landmark on me, and as designer Shai Delacroix was sending me a folder of samples.
These self-described casuals by Shai are hand drawn and fit that space in the middle ground between t-shirts & jeans, and suits & ties. The new line includes polos, button downs, cords, jeans, and my favorite the elbow-patch teed jacket.
With muted tones, good shadows, and nice fold details, these clothes are impressive for a starting designer. The picture of me shows the Errol Button Down Shirt paired with the Earth Suede Cords. All perfect for that Fall feeling of earthy comfort.
All of this can be found at Casa de Shai in Deimos.

Shai’s stuff is fantastic. I’m standing here wearing her jacket, the Erol shirt and the earth suede pants and thinking that I have never looked better in SL. Now I just need shoes that don’t suck.

Can’t go wrong with any shoes from Shiny Things or Barnes Boutique

Thanks, Nick. Before I saw your comment someone else directed me toward Shiny Things and the “Old Shoes” look awesome with my new threads.
