Goodbye Spork
It’s a sad day when one of your dear friends IMs you to say they are closing down their shop. I have known GM for nearly 3 years now, after he first wandered into my little store of only 5 designs in Plush Kappa. Who would have know then, that he and his wife Barb would become some of my closest friends in SL.
Over the years I have watched GM create his designs with loving care and attention to detail, continually improving his skills so he could bring us beautiful wearable fashions. Spork has grown to become one of the nicest women’s clothing boutiques in SL.
Farewell to our dear friends at Spork; GM, Freedom, & Barbara. Everyone at Malt thanks you for the past 2.5 years of stunning fashion and great friendship. Wishing you all the very best with your future SL projects.
Official Statement from Spork Management:
It is not an easy decision, and we’ve given it much thought. Spork will be closing it’s doors on Feb 15, 2010. We’ve been open for 2.5 years but the time has come to close up and move on to other projects. Both Barbara and I want to thank all our loyal customers. We’ve made some great friends as a result of our little shop.
Love,
GM & Barbara
<3ps: For the duration of what’s left on our rent box, we’ll be selling everything for $50L or less per item

Malt Trick & Treat Basket
Surprisingly there is some confusion about the Trick & Treat Event and people are unsure about what is actually up for grabs and how it all works. Simply put, its like a lucky dip. You pay 1L to the basket labeled “Trick & Treat” and you will get a random item out of several from inside. You can click as many times as you like to get all the items inside (they are numbered so you know how many to try for), just remember though each try is $1L. To help decide if you want to keep on trying, each store should have a display of some sort to show what you can actually win. If they don’t, and you are unsure, please contact the store owner for more info. Here is a pic of what you can try for at Malt:
The Trick & Treat event is on for another couple of days at the Malt, Juicy, & Juicy Mirabella sims, so you still have plenty of time to come along and grab some fantastic prizes for only 1L each. If you wish to know more Click Here for the full details of the event.

Malt New Release!
Khea Karas the Owner/Designer of Malt has been quiet lately…wonder why? I am about to show you one of the many reasons.
Introducing Gillie Dress. Does it look familiar? It should if you are a Modavia Fashion Directory reader…it was showcased in the last issue and it isn’t a dress you can easily forget.
Where to start…so much gorgeousness. The top is strapless, fitted and then it flows out to a tight fitted waist. The skirt is a sheer, shimmery and just the right touch of see through. The skirt is sculpted and gives a very realistic three dimensional look, and also has a resize version.
Also included is dress top version with an AO/Resize version and of course, one without.
The Gilli Dress comes in several colors; Bubblegum, Lemon, Lime, Mint, Pearl, Seafoam, Sienna, Sky and Spice.
You can purchase the Gilli Belt and Necklace separately.
Take a ride to Malt and buy Gilli for yourself!
