PRESS RELEASE FROM VERO MODERO

 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VERO MODERO OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
10 December 2011
===============================================

Agencies, Mall Owners, Designers, Staff and Bloggers

I am writing this notice to address the false rumors from Giz Seorn of Gizza regarding me copying her designs.

Due to the accusations, agencies and mall owners have decided to stop working with me or ban me from their shops/malls.

Giz Seorn and I have been using full perm templates and sculpts that are purchased from original designers on SL Marketplace.  I have worked with Giz previously as we were friends and designed together.

Now I have been told from shop owners and other designers that my name and business is being defamed by Giz Seorn,  as she states that she purchased the sculpts and templates she has the sole right to use it. This is false.

PROOF OF PURCHASED:
Sculp part:
Order number: 6695546
*Diesel Magic* clothing accessories set 8 sculpt maps
Quantity: 1    Price: L$400

 

PROOF OF PURCHASED:
Order number: 5644408
DISI-LUNY- full perm textures
Quantity: 1    Price: L$850

PROOF OF PURCHASED:
Order number: 13148335
Item: !   [Adored TEMPLATES] DRESS #6
Quantity: 1
Price: L$2,499

PROOF OF PURCHASED
Order number: 11261513
Item: Sport Pants Template by Luna McMillan
Quantity: 1
Price: L$1,299

My reason for writing this note is to bring all out to the forefront and no one has bothered to ask me if the accusations are true and no one giving me an opportunity to defend myself.

I’m not telling anyone to work with me again or I’m not telling anyone not to work with them. I am not judging anyone,but I have been ejected from malls, agenciess and shops due to the false rumors from Giz Seorn.

Defaming anyone’s character and threatening agencies, models, photographers and bloggers not to work with my competitors is not my company’s marketing strategy. I believe that every one is free to work with designers that you want. My company have the resources to implement our marketing ideas and promote our brand to the highest ethical standard.

My goal is to make nice clothing in Second Life so I can share my fashion ideas and graphic designs, I do not have time in creating drama and gossips.  In RL, I am running my own multimedia company and SL is not my source of income. I am here to have fun!

I have contacted my RL attorney to address these issue of defamation and am in the processs of taking the necessary actions needed.

All the Best,
Bouquet Babii

Dear Models/Designers and everyone else in SL.

Dear Models/Designers and everyone else in SL.

The other day I had a ”grevious” (to quote) conversation with the CEO of a fashion brand here in SL about forbidding their models to wear or even BE SEEN wearing a certain other brand. I also know for a fact, and I know others do too as you may be someone who has experienced it, that this certain brand has been telling agencies NOT to do shows for this other certain designer.

Me and my Partner run a non-profit business called THE FASHION TELLER. We create fashion books at no charge for designers, and we have a lot of fun doing this, as do our models. This ‘other’ brand is one of the sponsors of our upcoming book, much to the disliking of the BIG BRAND. Is it right that this Brand is contacting our models who already casted for this book, they cannot wear this other brand? Is it right that this brand tries to stop agencies putting on shows for this other brand? Is it right this brand, without a contract, tells ”ITS” models they cannot wear or be seen in this other brand on flickr etc?

Who gives anyone the right to do that? And then, When confronting them about this personal fued they have with each other of which they inflict on individuals…it is clearly denied. When we know it happens.

I’ve said all I needed to say. I have not done anything wrong. All I have done is confronted somoene who thinks they have the power to dictacte what indivduals CANNOT wear or be seen in. And feels the need to tell agencies they SHOULD NOT do shows for this other brand.

It is against ToS, and is a form of harrassment. Keep you personal fued with another designer between yourselves, rather than bringing it up on individuals and other businesses in here who take a neutral stance. Its not fair.

Thats All I have to say.

Editorial Clarity-Flux

ATTENTION MODELS AND BLOGGERS: You have the right!

The Fashion Teller values itself as an INDEPENDENT elite group that loves to do artistic projects outside any influence but our team. We take NEUTRAL stance on any drama or feud between models or/and designers, as we consider it none of our business. Any drama or fights should strictly be confined in between the feuding parties and not get anyone else involve. We believe it is very unprofessional and unethical for any agency, business or designer to forbid or restrict the actions of their models outside the workplace such as prohibiting models to wear a certain designer’s outfits on their own time/blog/flickr/work. It should ALWAYS be the model’s right to choose what they want to do, wear or blog on their own time. COERCION OR HARASSMENT MUST NOT BE TOLERATED AND SHOULD BE REPORTED AS ABUSE TO LINDEN LABS.

It is very sad and unfortunate that many models feel like they don’t have a voice, especially the new ones. They are afraid to speak up for what is right as they  fear of being labeled difficult or worse, be ejected from the group or blacklisted. Let me tell you something. YOU HAVE THE POWER but if you don’t stand up, you will always be treated like a servant or slave. No one has any power over you unless you allow them to. Any VIPS, Agencies or Big Name Designers got where they are because of YOU, the public. And you have the power to take them down their high horse. You have the power and right to decide which business to support in SL. Why spent your money on someone that restricts your freedom and rights? Support businesses that actually values you and respects what you do.

UPDATE:

Now that this is out in the open, they are releasing a statement that this is all a lie. LOL. You just called all those models, agency owners, magazine owners, and bloggers you coerced…LIARS.
We all know the truth. GOD knows the truth. Shame on YOU.
