[14:52:27] ‹gibbon› ok this is sexy military according to gibbon; Madame V bra and thong, Vuitton knitted dress, Louboutin shoes and Burberry coat and perhaps eyemask from Madame V,hair in a chignon,(or all hair inside burberry cap, with just a few locks hangin out) makeup= almost naked with but with roses on cheeks and lipgloss(like u are having a fever). A woman in love dressing out in military clothes and having fun with her lover!!
[14:52:30] ‹Soph› i cant go but i suggest the jessica ogden patchworks
[14:52:40] ‹Soph› with the broderie bra and the fur collar!
[14:52:45] ‹Soph› :-)
[14:52:59] ‹liberty› gibbon what's up?
[14:53:00] ‹Epaulette› The FORUM is on the front page of SHOWstudio. Haven't you registered before?
[14:53:38] ‹showstudio› M, Gibbon, you both sound keen. Would either of you like to go?
[14:53:49] ‹miklaus› Hello Liberty
[14:53:55] ‹liberty› hi
[14:54:02] ‹gibbon› the bra, thong,madame V, vuitton dress, burberry coat and louboutin shoes..
[14:54:14] ‹liberty› ok here we go......
[14:54:20] ‹t1simpson› yeah scrumple it up
[14:55:48] ‹m› wot's happening?
[14:56:08] ‹showstudio› Great choices, Gibbon! We'll call Jonathan and we're away.
[14:56:09] ‹liberty› we are doing the background and getting dressed
[14:56:17] ‹m› ok
[14:56:29] ‹t1simpson› green bra and thong,
[14:56:37] ‹liberty› it's on
[14:56:48] ‹gibbon› either the hair inside the burberry cap or the hair in a chignon and the eyemask madame V in the forhead like u are tired of dressing up
[14:57:06] ‹liberty› how very apt!
[14:57:40] ‹madameberlin› can I suggest another combination with louis vuittonıs knitted dress, if you are wearing it anyway...? would combine it with Miharaya Suhiro belt with net and the Lacoste knitted head. THen, finally take the LV leather gloves...
[14:57:40] ‹m› do u have to do the background?
[14:58:11] ‹showstudio› Sam's liking your hair suggestions, Gibbon. He wonders whether you've been on a shoot before?
[14:58:12] ‹gibbon› i know it sounds strange but when u are in love this is the sort of silly things u might do? not u but whomever i dont´know..
[14:58:55] ‹showstudio› They are attaching ruched paper to the backdrop, so that there is a textured surface that interrupts the projection.
[14:58:56] ‹gibbon› no I just read all types of fashion magazines all the time and movies of course
[14:59:19] ‹m› ok
[14:59:35] ‹showstudio› The fracture in the image is to communicate a more aggressive atmosphere in the final image
[15:00:08] ‹showstudio› Which Louboutin shoes? The Leopard skin or the black?
[15:00:29] ‹Epaulette› We'll be the judge of that, m
[15:00:37] ‹gibbon› I´m thinking of the movie with marlon brando and the french girl, whatıs it called.. something with paris.. the leopard ones.
[15:00:48] ‹showstudio› Tango
[15:01:29] ‹m› so does showstudio normally do this kind of thing@??/
[15:01:49] ‹Epaulette› Yes, have a look in their archive, m
[15:02:09] ‹showstudio› We haven't done anything with live streaming, M
[15:02:13] ‹m› really????
[15:02:21] ‹tc› really!
[15:02:27] ‹tc› They are stars
[15:02:35] ‹m› ok
[15:02:52] ‹showstudio› No, it's generally been films and webcams thus far. The studio is broadcast 24hrs on webcam.
[15:03:08] ‹m› I know this is a stupid Q but what is showstudio really about?#
[15:03:43] ‹gibbon› yea, the last tango in paris..
[15:03:46] ‹m› is that her on the chair?
[15:04:02] ‹showstudio› M, we'll have to take that up on the FORUM. Liberty's the real focus of today. Post me a message on the FORUM on the front page of SHOWstudio and I'll endeavor to answer tomorrow! That ok? :-)
[15:04:10] ‹Epaulette› Yes!!!
[15:04:15] ‹m› ok
[15:04:52] ‹sidmaker› is this the first outfit
[15:04:55] ‹t1simpson› how about jpg trench dress, belstaff black handbag... naturally, burberry cap... of course, and finally greeen undies.
[15:04:57] ‹showstudio› They couldn't get the Burberry cap to fit, so what you're seeing is Stephen Jones, Gibbon.
[15:05:17] ‹showstudio› Irv Margolis from Fashion TV is asking where you're from, Gibbon.
[15:05:31] ‹m› I love fashino tv
[15:05:52] ‹showstudio› Where are you from, Gibbon?
[15:06:05] ‹gibbon› I´m from Stockholm Sweden
[15:06:50] ‹Epaulette› Swede!
[15:07:02] ‹gibbon› but my parents are from Finland so I´m what u call a finish-swede.
[15:07:03] ‹m› y is it dark?
[15:07:21] ‹showstudio› Yes, lights off: we're about to start shooting.
[15:08:18] ‹showstudio› Any tips for the photographer: how you liking the lighting and projections?
[15:08:30] ‹Epaulette› Love that projection
[15:08:34] ‹m› depending on wot mood u wana create
[15:08:50] ‹sidmaker› love to see her face more
[15:09:18] ‹showstudio› We'll try a zoom for you!
[15:09:25] ‹gibbon› lighting like in a hotel room in the afternoon..
[15:09:30] ‹t1simpson› fur scarf and basketball net with shoes
[15:09:52] ‹showstudio› Sam fires up the windmachine!
[15:10:09] ‹Epaulette› It's a bit darker than that, Gibbon!
[15:10:39] ‹gibbon› will the wingd work in a hotel room? Then make it in the evening..
[15:10:57] ‹gibbon› wind not wingd
[15:11:40] ‹sidmaker› nice light
[15:11:42] ‹m› u know that there are differnt waredrobes can we pick a mixture?
[15:12:02] ‹showstudio› No cross dressing, I'm afraid!
[15:12:06] ‹m› ok
[15:12:31] ‹m› is this the first outfit?
[15:13:38] ‹daby› is the stylist on set a man or a lady? it's difficult to tell from their silhouette.
[15:13:44] ‹showstudio› We're liking Gibbon's look
[15:14:02] ‹showstudio› Which stylist is that? Describe!
[15:14:18] ‹Sandra› The one touching her now is Sam McKnight
[15:14:46] ‹showstudio› Sam McKnight is the hair stylist that works with Nick most often - Gibbon, we're waiting for Nick to get your shot for the gallery and then we'll try unleashing the hair.
[15:16:15] ‹Sandra› So pretty with the cap!!
[15:16:33] ‹gibbon› ok. if there is any problems don´t hesitate to ask me. I´m still here
[15:17:45] ‹m› ooooooooo she looks cool
[15:17:54] ‹daby› keep the cap on !
[15:18:02] ‹gibbon› the thing with the cap was to show a bit of neck, but if u can accomplish that in another way
[15:18:20] ‹showstudio› Slight altercation between the hair stylist and stylist. Jonathan's liking the wind in those pleats! Jonathan wins! Wind it is!
[15:18:27] ‹Sandra› And the cap's off!
[15:18:40] ‹m› that actually looks gd
[15:18:58] ‹m› well done gibbon
[15:18:58] ‹showstudio› Right-oh, Gibbon, the head's back and her neck's extended.
[15:19:13] ‹AnastaciasRedShoes› Is that Kate Bush I hear in the background?
[15:19:19] ‹showstudio› Yes, well done Gibbon! Our first MILITARY is good to spin!

[15:49:44] ‹ethan› I like the eye piece, not what I was expecting
[15:50:02] ‹supadupa› it does look like a bandage...
[15:50:07] ‹supadupa› hmmm, should I ditch it folks?
[15:50:18] ‹Soph› the eye mask would look good backwards
[15:50:21] ‹Soph› ala axl rose!
[15:50:22] ‹meiling› lol
[15:50:25] ‹supadupa› chuck it.
[15:50:38] ‹madameberlin› eye mask because this is the pullover to sit on a deck and then you would need to protect the eyes.
[15:50:52] ‹supadupa› rock n' roll
[15:51:48] ‹supadupa› we'll need some back shots to see the net, wont we?
[15:51:52] ‹supadupa› the net belt
[15:52:02] ‹supadupa› i dont know if you can see it from the front
[15:52:45] ‹supadupa› what color is the lipstick?
[15:52:51] ‹meiling› that looks cool
[15:54:02] ‹liberty› the lipstick is mid mauve from MAC, it's a good natural colour without being too nude.
[15:54:53] ‹liberty› Nick is shooting on Paulıs digital Leica
[15:55:28] ‹supadupa› very nice
[15:55:44] ‹liberty› supadupa, i hope you can see the net a little more clearly now
[15:56:07] ‹supadupa› oh yes, i think it looks good
[15:57:40] ‹supadupa› ahh some floor action

[15:59:33] ‹supadupa› nice leg position
[15:59:39] ‹supadupa› she's a pro
[16:00:15] ‹supadupa› yes, exactly, big bucks
[16:01:44] ‹supadupa› is there a projection as well?
[16:01:53] ‹supadupa› tricky to tell
[16:02:23] ‹showstudio› How's that shot for you, Supa? We're about to rotate her for you so you can see it in 360 degrees.
