Mohna Lisa , owner and designer of Mohna Lisa Couture , known as Mo by his friends , is the creative genius behind the most elegant styles for women and men . He strives to create the very best designs and highest expression of style in his gowns and tuxedos .
A sales and marketing executive , Lisa frequently traveled internationally . He discovered Second Life ® over five years ago and used it as a form of entertainment to pass time during periods of lack of sleep due to jet lag . As the Mohna Lisa Couture brand grew in popularity , he was afforded the opportunity to rearrange his RL schedule to dedicate more time to his brand .
Lisa ’ s objective is simple ; he wants to make women and men feel and look wonderful in his formal attire . There is no question that he has achieved that goal with evening gowns that epitomize beauty and sophistication . In some cases they cross that fine line from sensual to erotic while still maintaining that elegant flair . His trademark technique of using a glitter texture is most appealing . Lisa ’ s period ensembles , for example his Bonnie and Clyde , provide an edge of danger along with his trademark style and good taste . His wide collection of tuxedos and breathtaking bridal gowns are sure to satisfy the taste of the most discerning of customers .
Lisa assesses that from a business perspective , he doesn ’ t see much of a difference between the real life and Second Life fashion industries . He observes that Second Life , like real life , is highly dynamic , full of talent and highly competitive . He also emphasizes that Second Life is a lot of fun and hard work but enjoyed by all who participate in it . Looking at it from the creator / artist perspective , he acknowledges that there are many amazing and talented creators . He points out that the Second Life community is fortunate to enjoy such quality of talent at such a low cost in-world versus real life currency .
Lisa adds that his customers are the most rewarding aspect of designing . In fact , many of his loyal customers have also become his long term friends . They inspire him and keep him motivated . Of the utmost importance to him , is that he keeps his customers happy while maintaining the highest level of customer service possible .
