Each of us enters Second Life and attempts, in some way, to create an ideal vision of beauty based on personal preference and philosophy - one’s avatar.

Hathor Models, the brain child of Phoenix Chapman, was born out of a desire to showcase the diversity of models in Second Life beyond what has become, in many cases, the homogeneous aesthetic.

The Egyptian goddess Hathor has many associations, one of which is to help seekers in find the beauty within themselves. Our belief at Hathor Models is that beauty, regardless of how “unusual”, is to be celebrated and encouraged.

Phoenix is a former partner and Show Coordinator for the FACES agency, and former Advertising Director for Glam World Magazine. Her current pursuits include being a new Staff Writer for Second Style Magazine as well as her fashion review blog, Be Less Stupid! - dedicated to clothing that compliments her personal style.

Her business partner, Catero Revolution, is a former contributor to PWND Magazine, the Men’s Second Style online fashion resource and the MetaNetwork News agency. Catero now writes for Homme Magazine and the Y-Me blog, a smörgåsbord of cultural trends.

Both have hand-picked a selection of residents with a unique avatar philosophy whom it is felt represent a small cross-section of distinction and individuality outside of the norm within Second Life.

Many are seasoned models, others are fresh faces.
