Water Nymph Adrie & Nadia Collection


About DNR Water Nymph Adrie and Nadia Collection

I got my inspiration one day while watching some droplets splashing against my window one rainy day and began experimenting on designing some water motifs, spashes and textures.

This Water Collection comes in 2 Collections, namely Water Nymph Adrie and Water Nymph Nadia.

Water Nymph Adrie has a more sleeker svelte long skirt, you can either choose to wear it in a style of the system skirt or without.
There are 2 tops for this outfit, one covering the entire bodice and one revealing a sexy midrift. I have also included a one piece swim suit option with the set.

Water Nymph Nadia has a full grand bell shaped ball gown skirt for that grand entrance in any formal event and a lovely ballerina Tutu Skirt style.
Included in this set is an optional under shirt for a more covered up top. I have also included a one piece swim suit option with the set.

Available in 10 assorted colours and 2 Styles in my main store in Tropical Orchid.
This set has textures that are all 100% drawn in photoshop by Nicky Ree.

*DNR* RFL 2009 Adephagia Gown Set Auction Decision


Hello Everyone,

About *DNR* RFL 2009 Adephagia Gown in Pink

It seems there was some trouble during the last few minutes during the auction. I was told by several people there that a certain individual had bid very high several times in a same row and then backed down at the last minute wanting only to pay the lower price but was disqualified.

The auction price ranged during the last few minutes were from 71K 75K 100K 125L 175K and then the person backed out and it was back down to 71000.

Thus spoiling the whole spirit of the auction and depriving some people who were thinking of bidding above the 71K.

After thinking if over, having chatted with Nevar Lobo and some parties involved in the auction, I have decided to void the auction of the RFL 2009 Adephagia Gown in Pink.

This is not at all any fault of the organizers and I think Nevar and his team have tried their best and have done a good job and I thank them for their hard work for RFL Clothing Fair 2009.

I have paid $71000L back to Fish Kungfu and the donation to RFL kiosk of $71000L is not affected and will still be donated to Relay For Life. Fish Kungfu and RFL 2009 will not loose anything.

I personally thank Fish Kungfu for his support as this is entirely not his fault, he is honest and was bidding in a fair manner. I have also sent a copy of the RFL 2009 Adephagia Gown to Fish Kungfu's friend as he meant to buy it for her in the first place. I have invited him to donate whatever amount he wishes for the gown to the RFL Kiosk that I have set up in my main store in Tropical Orchid. So in this respects RFL will still benefit more from the donation for this gown.

As for the *DNR* RFL 2009 Adephagia Gown, I have yet to finalized my plans for it but I may in future hold limited sets for auction for the benefit of RFL during the RFL 2009 period.

The details like date, time, location and how to bid or buy will be disclose at a later time. For future auctions or limited pieces, I will change the colour of the gown so in that respects Fish has still bought a one of the kind gown of that colour.

best regards
Nicky Ree

RFL 2009 Adephagia Auction Gown By Nicky Ree


About the Designing Nicky Ree "Adephagia" Gown for Relay for Life 2009

This year I created a gown based on the theme set by the RFL Clothing Fair Organisers. The theme I selected is Gluttony.

Adephagia in Greek mythology was the goddess and personification of gluttony. Not much is known about her, and is only mentioned once as having a temple on the island of Sicily where she was worshipped alongside Demeter, the goddess of grain and fertility. It is likely then that while gluttony is associated with self-indulgence or excess, in actual worship Adephagia may instead have been revered as a goddess of agricultural bounty.

With this in mind I created a gown using the graphic motif of grapes, draping the luscious vines of grapes round the soft curves of the gown. Rich, fertile and luscious is the theme for this gown.

The gown is no transfer. There are two ways you can wear this gown, with system skirt or without system skirt.

(1) Gown with System Skirt
- DNR RFL Adephaqia Gown Top V2 - Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Gown Skirt V2- Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia V2 glitch pants - Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Gloves Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte R leg Prim Translucent Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte L Leg Prim Translucent Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte Centre Stomach Prim Translucent Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte Longer Train (Pelvis) Translucent Pink (Optional)

(2) Gown without the System Skirt
- DNR RFL Adephaqia Gown Top V2 - Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia V2 glitch pants - Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Gloves Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte R leg Prim Translucent Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte L Leg Prim Translucent Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Fuller Centre Prim Pink
- DNR RFL Adephagia Svelte Longer Train (Pelvis) Translucent Pink (Optional)

The photos attached to this note will help you visualise how it should look once worn.




You will note that I have made some hair decoration in the form of grapes. I will include these items in the set as an extra just incase you want to attain the same look as in the poster. Like the gown itself, this will be mod copy only. Note this will only fit the hair style I used in the advert (Sky Everett Designs-Temptress Blonde-Wheat). If you have another form of hair style, you will need to place the grapes and its leaves on the hair you have yourself.

How, When and Where to Bid for the Gown?

This year at the SL Clothing Fair there will be a Silent Dress Auction featuring original interpretations of the designs seen grid-wide representing the 7 Deadly Sins.

Bidding will start when the fair begins on Monday, March 16, 2009 at 10:00 am SLT and will close at 6:00 pm SLT on Sunday, March 22, 2009.

Winners will be announced at 8:00 pm SLT on the 22nd to bid the fair adieu.

Auction will take place on the Entertainment sim place your bids early and often.
Location : Clothing Fair Entertainment - by, The Mediterranean Sea (156, 117, 23)

New Release - Sweet Theresa Dress Collection by Nicky Ree


Hi :)

It has been a long while, since my last release. I have been recovering from jet lag and it took me a long time to get back to the work flow of designing again.

I finally managed to get my new collection entitled "Sweet Theresa Dresses". The flower pattern on the fabric of the dress is taken from one of the many flower designs I did for my older collection "Spring Romance". This time round I did an updated version of the flowers and created a sweet simple dress collection with it.

Available in various colours in my main store at Tropical Orchid, displayed at the front near the sofa area. Matching shoes also available for sale.

Cheers
Nicky Ree
