LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR BRAVO AKASHAXZ, ARIA, CLAUDIA, KITTY, PHARAGON, AND SYLVER!





It's on! The LOOK of the YEAR jury of the famous LUXE Paris fashion house competition has chosen the first group of six semi-finalists!
Congratulations to Akashaxz, Aria Absinthe, Claudia Fosse, Kitty Dark Rage, Pharagon Pelous, and Sylver Vendetta!

These five stylish women and one man are now in the running for the coveted LOOK of the YEAR title and the L$50,000 prize that comes with it!

But they won't be alone. Four more selections of six semi-finalists will take place in the coming weeks! Have you submitted your photo?

Once 30 semi-finalists have been chosen, the jury will review all their photos and select 12 finalists.

ARE YOU STYLISH?

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

LUXE Paris is looking for a stylish woman or man who knows how to express the brand's elegance and who will be the image of the house with charisma.

This could be a professional or an amateur. The crowning glory of a big name of the runway or a new discovery. Both have occurred throughout the competition's 10-year history.

The LOOK of the YEAR organization boasts a prestigious team of mentors who offer tailored preparation to the finalists. A beginner with the right drive and passion can rise to the top, while a professional will be guided to excel.




TAKE A CHANCE ON YOU!

It's easy to participate: choose your favorite LUXE Paris outfit, style it your way without forgetting the brand's aura of elegance, take a photo (snapshot or 1024 x 1024), write your legacy name in the title, and send FULL PERM to the avatar LUXEParisLOOKoftheYEAR inworld.

FREE LUXE Paris outfit for all participants upon receipt of their first photo!

In addition to offering L$50,000 to the winner and L$10,000 to each of the runners up, LUXE Paris will also distribute 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.

LOOK of the YEAR is also one of the most beautiful fashion adventures on the planet SL, an enriching and rewarding experience with grandiose events and living legends to guide you!

JUST FOR MEN by Hyaecinte for LUXE Paris



Did you know that statistics in 2025 show that

59% of the SL population is male? And then let's

not forget how many gentlemen enjoy experiencing

SL through the eyes of a female avatar.


So many men... Yet if you look at the stores out there,

it's like SL is made up of 90% women. Female clothes.

Female shoes. Female accessories. There's so much.

But for men? You really need to search for good stuff.


I'm glad LUXE Paris has a men's section.

Because just like the ladies, I feel men get 'forced' into

a specific type of clothes. While women have their butt

hanging out of their skirts 3 out of 4 times, I have seen

way too many pants that offer the.'visible garden hose'.


Elegance. It's what LUXE Paris preaches.

For women AND for men!



 

As I was brainstorming, I stood next to our large men's wear wall in the store

looking at the many creations we made over the years. And then I noticed the titles.

 

Did you ever notice how original and unique our designers make the names of our clothes?

 

So while I am going to drown you all in as many fabulous male creations as I can, I am using the

LUXE Paris inspiration to inspire me on what to type!

 

A QUICK LESSON IN JAPANESE

 


 

The first ensemble I wanted to figure out is not only one of our newest

designs, but also has a very funny title. What IS 'Kakkoii’ ?!

The answer is simple. It’s Japanese for 'cool’ !

Also, it is used as the male version of the popular female term 'kawaii’.

Girls are cute (kawaii) and guys are handsome (kakkoii).

 

A SUIT FIT FOR A GENTLEMAN






 


 

GENTLEMEN… THERE IS STILL HOPE

 



 

Luckily not EVERYTHING is made for women when it comes to fashion!

'GQ' is a real life men's fashion magazine with the latest trends and hottest items.


"Since 1957, GQ has inspired men to look sharper and live smarter

with its unparalleled coverage of style, culture, and beyond. 

From award-winning writing and photography

to binge-ready videos to electric live events,

GQ meets millions of modern men where they live,

creating the moments that create conversations."

 

WWW.GQ.COM

 

EVERY MAN NEEDS GOOD ACCESSORIES






 


 

TIMELESS DESIGN, TIMELESS LOVE STORY

 



 

One of the designs which has adorned our men's wall for a long time has a name

that is connected to the intense and beautiful love story of Dante Alighieri.


Dante met Beatrice Portinari only twice and could not stop thinking about her.

He travelled through the circles of hell all the way to paradise to find her again.

In reality, he wrote 31 poems to commemorate his one true muse, Beatrice.

 

DANTE’S ‘VITA NUOVA’

 

"My lady looks so gentle and so pure

When yielding salutation by the way,

That the tongue trembles and has nought to say,

And the eyes, which fain would see, may not endure.


And still, amid the praise she hears secure,

She walks with humbleness for her array;

Seeming a creature sent from Heaven to stay

On earth, and show a miracle made sure."

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.
