My ‘Lady Dimitrescu’ Outfit

If there is one thing Second Life does really well, it would be providing an enormous number of ways in which to customise your look. With that in mind, I set a challenge: Can i put together an outfit inspired by the look of Resident Evil: Village’s antagonist Lady Dimitrescu?

Given that there are thousands of stores you can potentially visit, it really helps to have a guide who can narrow down the search, and I know of no person more helpful than my own dear Jamie. When I said I needed to buy a hat, she surprised me by suggesting we go to ‘Truth’.

I have been to this store quite a few times, because you can get some great hairstyles here. But, I did not know they have hats as well, But what do you know, some of the hairstyles came with hats, and Jamie came up trumps by directing me to a hat that looked similar to the style worn by Lady Dimitrescu.

So, hat acquired, it was time to find a suitable dress. I knew it had to be an elegant dress that a lady would wear, so that ruled out the stores that provide beachwear, cocktail dresses or the sort of gear you would wear to an S/M party (although who knows what Lady D gets up to after dark??). Jamie took me to Kathleen’s store, and even though there were hundreds of outfits to choose from, once again she quickly homed in on a dress that looked similar to the outfit worn by Lady D.

Back home it was time to put the outfit together. Now, I should point out that my aim was not to put together a look that was exactly like that of Lady Dimitrescu, but rather one that was merely inspired by her look. Her dress is a sort of peach color but I decided to make mine red, because my hair is black and red is a colour that really complements red hair, at least I think so. As for the hat, we tried various alternatives. Jamie reckoned red with a black stripe worked best.

So, what do you think of the final look??
