Something Wicked, produced by AVENUE, was without question the Halloween Fashion Show of the year. The event kicked off the SL holiday celebration and was unlike anything you've ever seen.


Guests came dressed in their favorite costumes and were escorted through the eerie darkness complete with skulls and ghosts, to their respective graves by Grim Reapers. Then from their coffins, they were treated to spine-tingling and bone chilling fashions from some of SL's most talented costume designers. Fashions featured in this powerhouse production included creative designs from Eclipse, Evie's Closet, EXXESS Designs, Diorsis Hair Design, Here Comes Trouble, Lourdes Laysan, Masquerade Parade, Nikita Fride, SkinTight, Smooth Designs, and Violator.

The visual effects of the phenomenal set were only enhanced by the haunting melodies prepared by AVENUE's very own CEO Rusch Raymaker as the lovely AVENUE Models presented an array of designs that would suit just about every taste.
