LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR A FRIENDLY AND EXCITING FASHION COMPETITION FOR ALL!




The year 2025 will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the prestigious LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR style competition!

Created for the pleasure of fashion and to promote the diversity of beauty, this competition has brought together and made thousands of women of all styles shine.




OPEN TO WOMEN & MEN
Yes! All women, and since last year all men, who have stylistic qualities and who know how to express elegance, the spearhead of LUXE Paris fashion, can participate! Last year, Wyatt Frost Reyes showed so much style that he won third place, ahead of seven beautiful women finalists.

Second place went to TwinkieBean for her stylish and striking look while the prestigious LOOK of the YEAR title was awarded to VanessaJane for her graceful and radiant elegance.

EVERYONE CAN WIN!
PROFESSIONALS OR AMATEURS!
Even if many top models participate each year in this competition, we have also seen beginners rise to the top ranks and even win. Indeed, the organization offers tailor-made training for all the finalists.

From the beginners, the judges will expect them to transform into professionals through hard work and passion while the team of mentors will provide them with all the necessary ammunitions. 

In the professionals, the judges will want to see progression, refinement, the achievement of new goals.

During this training and throughout the different stages of the competition, the mentors, also members of the jury, will also monitor the ambassadorial qualities of the participants. Because our LOOK of the YEAR will become the official ambassador of LUXE Paris for an entire year.




L$50,000 CASH TO THE WINNER!
L$10,000 TO THE RUNNERS UP!
In addition to offering L$50,000 cash to the winner and L$10,000 to each of the two runners up, LUXE Paris will also distribute them a whole range of gifts, offered by our sponsors.

The finalists will not be forgotten because they will receive 10 LUXE Paris outfits of their choice, a L$1500 gift card from the jeweler ZURI and a L$1500 gift card from MY BAGS by Mila Blauvelt, to prepare for the grand finale.




FREE LUXE Paris OUTFIT TO ALL PARTICIPANTS
Also, all candidates will receive a free LUXE Paris ensemble upon receipt of their first submission! This means that everyone is a winner and that's without counting all the pleasure and radiance the LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR contest brings to all participants. 

Each of the 5 weeks of the semifinal, the photos of the top six candidates will be published on our website at LUXEParis.online and here in The SL Enquirer. The Spanish magazine SL Confidencial will also feature the semifinalists in its monthly editions.

EASY TO PARTICIPATE!
Do you want to submit your application? It's easy! Put on a LUXE Paris outfit, style it your way, take a picture (snapshot or 1024 X 1024), put your legal name in the title and send it FULL PERM to the avatar LUXEParisLOOKoftheYEAR inworld.

Who knows? Maybe it will be your turn to live the great LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR adventure! Nothing to lose and a beautiful LUXE Paris set to win!

THE LIVE FINALE
Once we have 30 semifinalists, the jury will review their photos and choose 12 finalists. The finalists will then be invited to meet the judges in person at an elegant brunch during which they will have to present a short written speech explaining why they would be a good ambassador for LUXE Paris.

The big twelve will also participate to a live fashion show on an imposed theme, during which the jury will make its final decision. Remember that LUXE Paris is looking for an ambassador, a woman or a man with style, panache and charisma.

VANESSAJANE'S TIPS
TENTH OF THE DYNASTY LOOK OF THE YEAR
"My best advice to participants is to be genuinely authentically yourself", says VanessaJane, LOOK of the YEAR 2024-2025, when we ask her to share her experience.

"When I first participated in LOTY in 2022 I was too caught up in what I thought I was 
expected to be, how I was expected to style, and I strangled myself as a result!  

"But last year I competed for the fun and the opportunity to style, threw out any expectations and made a promise to myself that I would not lose 'me'! And I won!!!

"Mika and Paris, the founders and chief designers of LUXE Paris, want a genuine relationship with their ambassador so I have come to understand that it is vital to reveal the real you when you compete."




The unisex 2025 LOOK of the YEAR competition is a production of LUXE Paris and ONE On ONE Agency in collaboration with Zuri Jewelry, In-Nova Modelling Academy, My Bags by Mila Blauvelt, Hayabusa Design, SL Confidencial magazine, The SL Enquirer, Swank Events, Womenstuff & Menstuff groups, ProPose, The Latin Quarter and Javi Gearz Video.

LOOK of the YEAR A BRUNCH at LUXE Paris CASTLE




It was with joy, intelligence and humor that the 2024 finalists of the LOOK of the YEAR competition officially presented themselves, during the traditional Judges' Brunch, last month, in the Hayabusa gardens of the LUXE Paris castle.

In this grandiose setting, each of the finalists gave a short speech, explaining why they would make a good ambassador for LUXE Paris. They then had to answer the judges who kindly asked them several destabilizing questions.

The objective of this meeting was to allow the judges to familiarize themselves with the finalists' personalities, to evaluate their communication skills. Remember that LUXE Paris is looking for an ambassador for its brand, so it takes more than a pretty face to access the prestigious title of LOOK of the YEAR.

No marks were awarded at this event but the jury was invited to note their impressions in order to make an informed decision when voting for the grand finale on September 8th. In the meantime, the finalists will have modeling lessons and mentoring meetings to perfect their art.



The Grand Finale
While the Judges' Brunch was a strictly private event, the grand finale will be open to the public and promises to be a great spectacle. 

In a breathtaking setting designed by Lorez Aichi, the finalists' show will pay tribute to five fashion icons who have particularly inspired LUXE Paris over its twelve years of existence.

In the spotlight, the wonderful Jade PONO, LOOK of the YEAR 2022, who passed away from cancer; PONCHITUTI BOUCHER, a living legend in the SL fashion world, who trained a myriad of runway stars; ZURI RAYNA, the official jeweler of the LOOK of the YEAR competition and creator of the tiaras offered to the winner and finalists; GABRIELLE "COCO" CHANEL, this extraordinary designer who freed women from their corset and who still influences fashion 50 years after her death, and the unforgettable FROLIC MILLS, a great pioneer of virtual fashion, another very dear friend of LUXE Paris who died of cancer last winter.

Each of the finalists must present a look composed of LUXE Paris clothing and Zuri jewelry, inspired by one of these icons. The icons were assigned to the finalists according to a random process.

Ten Women and One Man
For the first time since the creation of the competition a decade ago, it was mixed, therefore open to men, and a courageous man managed to make a place for himself among all these feminine beauties. WyattFrost will indeed be in the grand finale with Ame Morningstar, Aria Absinthe, Catsmeow17, EleanorJean, Girasolmx, Jude Tatham, Keira Rhapsody, Tilly Opaline, TwinkieBean and VanessaJane66. The new LUXE Paris ambassador can indeed be a woman or a man, LUXE Paris offers women's and men's collections.

The LOOK of the YEAR  jury will evaluate the finalists on five main points: their presence on stage, the quality of their look, their ability to respond to a specific fashion order, their way of presenting LUXE Paris and Zuri fashion and their performance at the Judges Brunch.

It is the total of the scores awarded by the judges at the grand finale that will determine who will be the next LOOK of the YEAR and win the super prize pool of L$50,000 in cash!



An Impressive Jury
The LOOK of the YEAR jury is impressive and very diverse with its sixteen members from the worlds of fashion, design, media and music: Adonis Lubomir, owner of Swank Events & the groups Womenstuff and Menstuff, Avalon Chrome, designer at LUXE Paris and LOOK of the YEAR 2021, Blueyes Bonetto, owner of Latin Quarters, our sim-host, and musical director of LOOK of the YEAR events, Chemak Kamala, owner/publisher of SL Confidencial, the magazine of the Spanish community, Dante Lisa, owner of Miss & Mister Elegance & CEO Elégance Model Agency, Diana Balhaus, co-owner of One On One Agency, producer of LOOK of the YEAR events, Hunipet Delicioso, the reigning ambassador of LUXE Paris, Hyaecinte, director of communication of LUXE Paris, Lali Arbizu, co-owner of One On One and coordinator of the finalists, Lanai Jarrico, The SL Enquirer, THE web journal, Mitsuko Kytori, Hayabusa Design, the famous gardener of the LUXE Paris castle, Naar Absinthe, owner of In-Nova Academy and LOOK of the YEAR 2017, Ponchituti Boucher, co-owner of One On One and head of the LOOK of the YEAR mentors, and Zuri Rayna, the star jeweler of LOOK of the YEAR.

In short, LUXE Paris promises us a grandiose finale, passionately fashion-oriented and full of emotional moments. Don't miss this unique show on Sunday, September 8 at 9:30 SLT. Your limousine will be waiting for you on LUXE Paris Fashion House

With the competition being open to male candidates for the first time this year, one brave soul has managed to rise among all these spectacular female beauties!

Now the finalists will have to demonstrate their talent as fashion ambassadors at two major events that will determine which of them will wear the prestigious title LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR and will deserve the impressive prize pool of L$50,000 cash.




THE NEXT CHALLENGES

First, there will be the Judges' Brunch, an elegant private event in the Hayabusa Garden of LUXE Paris castle, Sunday August 18, The finalists will be invited to show up dressed as a LUXE Paris ambassador, for a very chic but daytime event.

Each finalist will also be invited to explain in a short written speech why she or he would make a good ambassador for LUXE Paris. These presentations will be followed by a question period prepared by the judges.

This stage of the competition allows the jury to discover the finalists' personalities and measure their communication skills.

It is also at the Judges' Brunch that the finalists will receive their ten LUXE Paris ensembles as well as the L$1500 gift certificate from jeweler Zuri Rayna.

These gifts will allow the finalists to prepare for the grand finale. The election of the LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR winner will take place on Sunday, September 8.


GET READY FOR A MOVING FINALE

For the final, the 12 greats will once again have to compose a LUXE Paris look paying tribute to one of the five fashion icons honored during the semi-final: Jade Pono, our dear LOOK of the YEAR 2022 who died of cancer last winter, Ponchituti Boucher, this living legend of virtual fashion who has trained so many runway stars that she is nicknamed The Mother of All Models, Zuri Rayna, talented jeweler who has made our Second Life sparkle since 2007, Gabrielle Coco Chanel, a designer so revolutionary that her style continues to influence fashion 50 years after her death, and the unforgettable Frolic Mills, this great pioneer of virtual fashion who also left us recently, taken by cancer.




This time, however, the finalists will have to present their look live on stage and the icon to honor will be imposed, at random. The jury will then evaluate the finalists' ability to fulfill a fashion order with intuition and originality. They will also examine the quality of their elegance and style as well as their charisma on stage.




Without a doubt, we will be treated to a grandiose and moving show! Open to the public, the event will also be broadcast live on YouTube by SL4Live-TV. Watch for all the details on our
