Peter Pan costume

OK, and yet another costume: Peter Pan this time. If you buy it, you may need to adjust the shirt and the skirt a little to your avatar shape. The hat can be worn on the nose, so that you can keep your hair attached to your skull.

Spiderman costume

And here's another costume: Spiderman :-) Unfortunately, I wasn't able to produce a good mask yet, so till I find a good solution, this set comes without a mask. Well... it also has some advantages when people can still recognise you from your face...

Sorry for the change in layout: since Google changed the Blogger user interface, I haven't found a way to have the text appear next to the picture.

Superman costume

This should be clear: a nice Superman outfit for all you kids of all ages :-) It fits very tightly and has some shades, reflections and highlights that enhance your super heroe body... Some may even call it a bit sexy :-)

The top part is a regular shirt, the bottom part is actually made as underpants, because it has to go into the boots. The red "shorts" (?) with the yellow belt are painted on the underpants. The boots are actually socks, but because of the reflections, they really look like boots rather than socks. The cloak is a flexi prim attachment that should be worn on the chest. It might need some adjustments to your avatar.

This set is only available in my in-world store, not in the SL Market.

Set of 3 silk pyjamas

Set of 3 silk pyjamas, consisting of a jacket and matching pants. Perfect for relaxing at home, dreaming your SL dreams at night, or for coming in style to the next pyjama party :-)

If you look carefully at the photo, you will see that this is not just a nice fabric pattern pasted on a template, but a highly detailed design with many subtle wrinkles, folds and highlights to give it depth and realisms and to appear as wrinkled as pyjamas should be :-)

Due to the irregular nature of the SL avatar mesh, the checked design looks far from perfect, but hey, do you always iron your pyjama before going to bed? :-)

Included are some contrasting yellow text and decorations.

St Patrick outfit

A complete, sexy, "Chippendale" style of St Patrick outfit, consisting of:

- a green gilet (sleeveless jacket)
- green jeans
- a green, sculptured St Patrick hat (worn on chin)
- a green beau tie (worn on chest)

The gilet includes a narrow neck band that holds the beau tie and some green bands around the upper arms with clovers attached to them. If you don't want them, you can easily remove them in the Appearance Editor by lowering the Collar Front/Back and by making the Sleeve Length shorter.

The gilet comes in two versions: a shirt layer and a undershirt layer version.

The gilet isn't perfect: especially the shoulder area is a problem spot since many mesh triangles move and slide in unpredictable ways. How it looks also depends on the shape you wear. I did my best to find a good compromise.

The jeans come in two versions: pants and underpants version. The underpants version can be useful if you want to wear them inside boots, high socks etc. The length can be modified: convert them to shorts for a different effect...

The beau tie should be worn on the chest and edited such that it seems to be attached to the neck band. The chest isn't the perfect attachment point for this: with some poses and animations, it doesn't stay on the neck band, but no better attachment points are available (at least in the viewers I know)

The hat can be worn on the chin. For better results and if you have copy/mod hair (and a lot of spare time) you can link it with your hair and edit the hair not to stick through the hat.

Valentine boxers in gift box

A set of 4 satin boxers with Valentine heart prints. They come in 4 colors:
- red
- white
- black
- pink

Subtle wrinkles, reflection and shades give these shorts a true satin look. The length of the boxers can be adjusted slightly if desired.

The boxers are packed in a nice Valentine's gift box. Both the box and the briefs are transferable and no-copy. Afterall, you are going to give these as a present, isn't it? :-)

Yabu's Boys' Fashion had to move again as the current estate owner went out of business. The new store is close to A Boys Place Mall (ABPM) that many of you might know. The new location is here

Flight jacket and shiny pants

Warm, fluffy flight jacket and matching shiny, nylon pants. The design is simple: no prim attachments, collars etc, so very easy to wear. The jacket comes in two versions: one with the zipper fully up, and one with the zipper half-way down. The pants are also provided as underpants layer, so you can wear them inside boots etc.

As you probably know, jackets are always skin-tight in Second Life. To give it the appearance
of fluffyness, you have to wear a loose shirt underneath it. If you don't have one, some very simple knitted sweaters are included for free in this set. By adjusting the "Shirt Fit" slider in the appearance editor between Tight and Loose, you can vary the thickness of the jacket. The sweater is grey, so you can give it any color you like.

Of course you can also wear the jacket without the sweater.

If you wish, you can also vary the pants fit between Tight and Loose. Tip: by changing the pants
length, you can change it into some nice shorts for use in the summer.

The set consists of:
- flight jacket closed (zipper up)
- flight jacket open (zipper down)
- shiny, nylon pants (pants layer)
- shiny, nylon pants (underpants layer)
- some knitted sweaters (to give the jacket some fluffyness): one for the closed and one for the open jacket.

Ski jacket + pants

Cold outside? Have some fun in the snow in this retro ski outfit, consisting of a warm, fluffy jacket
and shiny, nylon pants. The design is simple: no prim attachments, collars etc, so very easy to wear.

As you probably know, jackets are always skin-tight in Second Life. To give it the appearance
of fluffyness, you have to wear a loose shirt underneath it. If you don't have one, a very simple
knitted sweater is included for free in this set. By adjusting the "Shirt Fit" slider in the appearance
editor, you can vary the thickness of the jacket. The sweater is basically grey, so you can give it any color you like.

If you wish, you can also vary the pants fit between Tight and Loose. Tip: by changing the pants
length, you can change it into some nice shorts for use in the summer.

More tips: by changing the Arms Length slider for the jacket, you can convert it into a body warmer. And if you wear the jacket without a sweater, it's a nice training suit that goes well with the pants.

Also available in red.

Wet and dirty sportswear

Like to play rough games outside and not bother about keeping your clothes clean? Then this set might be something for you...

A set of basic white sportswear that has become thoroughly wet and dirty and full of muddy stains. The t-shirt and shorts also include dirty stains on the "uncovered" arms and legs (actually, the shirt and pants are full length, but are almost transparent on the lower arms and legs). If you don't need that, you can edit the stains away in the Appearance Editor by making the arms and legs shorter. The wet, "see-through" look of the shirt and shorts is done by painting skin color on them, they are not really transparant. So if you have a very dark or unusual skin color, the see-through effect might not work. The socks might be wet, but are not see-through., that simply doesn't happen with these type of socks. (I know, I tried :-)

If you like the idea and want to take it a step further (like jumping into a mud puddle), check my shop for a nice mud pit and a set of very muddy clothes... :-)

Main store relocated

Unfortunately, the sim on which my main store was located (Kola) went out of business... But I found a new place and I used the opportunity to make the shop a little bigger. You can find my new store at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Nightshades/108/209/22 . I'm still busy hanging up all the vendor panels, so not everything is there yet, but in a few days, most of it should be there.

Silk boxer shorts

A set of 3 satin boxer shorts with different prints:
- "Superman"
- "Monkey Power"
- "Thomas" (of "Thomas the Tank Engine" cq. "Thomas and Friends")

Don't be scared by the "childish" patterns: these shorts are fun to wear (and show off) by all ages!

Subtle wrinkles, reflection and shades give these shorts a true satin look.

The boxers come in two versions:
- pants layer, so you can wear your tatoos, body oil etc underneat
- underpants layer, so you can wear them under your jeans et.

The length of the boxers can be adjusted slightly if desired.

Argyle pullover and vest

A stylish pullover ("sweater") with the very classical "argyle" pattern on a beige base color. It has a V-shaped neck, so it is perfect to wear over a dress shirt and tie. Also included is a vest ("spencer"), which is very similar, but has no sleeves.

Both use the SL jacket layer, so you can wear a shirt under it. As you probably know, you can not make a jacket loose. If you want a loose fit, wear a loose shirt under it.

T-shirt "Tie Dye"

Wear this 60's style tie dye shirt to relive the Flower Power period! Woodstock, "Peace", "Make Love, not War", flowers in your hair etc...

The shirt comes in 2 versions: a short "tucked" version (shirt layer) and a longer, "untucked" version (jacket layer).

Tip: if you want the untucked version to be wide and loose, wear the tucked version (or another shirt) underneath.

For those of you who are too young to remember what "tie dye" means: these shirts were made at home by taking a plain white t-shirt, tightly tying some ropes around it and putting it in bucket with a fabric dye. This process could be repeated with different colors.

I included the simple hair band that I made it for the sales poster (I attached it to my left ear). It's completely free, very primitive and if you don't like it or if it doesn't fit: just delete it. (I accept no complaints about this hair band)

Dirty sportswear

A set of basic white sportswear that has become dirty and is full of stains from dry soil. The set consists of:
- a white tshirt with some blue decorations
- shiny white sport shorts with some blue decoration stripes
- two sets of white sport socks: a short set and a long, soccer type of set.

Disco shirt

Bring back the memories of the good old 80's and steal the show on the disco floor with this shiny, glittering shirt! Be a John Travolta and dance the Saturday Night away... :-)

By the way, I've made a few more World Cup soccer uniforms: Germany and Japan (and maybe more will follow), but I'm not showing them here. After the two soccer outfits below, you've got the idea already...

Soccer uniform "Holland"

This is the official outfit of the Dutch soccer team in the World Cup 2010. It consists of:
- orange soccer shirt with KNVB logo (=Dutch Soccer Association)
- black soccer shorts, also with KNVB logo
- orange soccer socks

NB: no (soccer) shoes are included!

The length of the shorts can be adjusted slightly if desired.

It is a "free interpretation" of the official uniform: a few small details (like the white stripes on the shirt) were left out as they would look very bad on a Second Life avatar.
