Group Notice From: Ingrid Ingersoll

Hi guys, we have some exciting news today. For the most part, when people think of Tableau, they think of a place where they will soon be parted with their hard-earned cashola. That is why we are merging the entire sim with Armidi. We will all be working under the name “FunkyTony Armidi” and will focus mainly on tank tops, capris, emo-wear. We’ll be taking a vote on which disaster will destroy Tableau so send in your suggestions to Toast Bard before April 5th! Thanks for your support!

And from Armidi themselves:

Armidi Inks Major Partnership Deals

Armidi announces partnership deals with major content creators from the Second Life® virtual world.

The Armidi brand has long been recognized as the number one destination for virtual content, far ahead of any competitor, and dominating the fashion scene in the Second Life® virtual world. Unanimously, it is agreed that one unified place for Second Life® residents to shop and congregate is a good thing, and in keeping with that beleif, we are very excited to announce this expansion to the ever growing Armidi brand.

Sofia Gray
Public Relations Manager

“A step in the right direction.” – Adian Armidi

By joining Armidi, these designers are able to freely achieve the success that they otherwise may had not. They are joining an established team who are able to express their own individuality and unique style, by designing freely and creatively, within the style boundaries set by Armidi.

“It’s a bit sudden…I do not regret joining Armidi.” – Juju Armidi

The first set of designers, Hudsen Armidi, Juju Armidi, Kathryn Armidi, and Lindsay Armidi will continue to design for Armidi while taking a brief leave of absence during this transition period.

“I’ve always lusted after these designers, so I am very excited to be able to extract their talents for use in the Armidi brand. As someone who is unable to, creatively, make original content in the Second Life® virtual world without the aide of another, strategically, this is the perfect move.” – London Armidi

The new crop of Armidi designers will unveil their first collection under the Armidi brand in Mid-April. Second Life® residents will be able to purchase the collections at the Armidi region, the soon to be launched ShopArmidi.com, or one of the sixteen new satellite locations which will be housed in the designer’s former flagship locations. Each new satellite store will mimic the unique style of Armidi.

Unfortunately at this time, Armidi cannot formally address any press enquiries regarding these agreements, limitations, and the future plans for Armidi. Press enquiries for the new team may be directed to the following names, respectively; FunkyTony Armidi, Paper Armidi, Onyx Armidi, Glam Armidi, Wilma Armidi.

It appears our beloved Tableau is going to disappear. Who can stop the minds of Toast Bard and Ingrid Ingersoll once they get rolling?

ARMIDI CONTINUES TO ABSORB OUR CONTENT CREATORS. We’re not going to have any place to shop soon.

Psst – highlight this post.
