I just received the following group notice. I don't read the fashion blogs- does anyone know what's happening here? I thought Ginny's partner was going to continue the business. It's one of my favorite places to shop:

Group Notice From: Paisley Poindexter

We have all been inspired by Last Call. Tonight at 6pm the sim is closing it's doors for good. I've been asked to send this notice along w/ the candle to ask you all to come to the Dazzle sim ASAP. People are gathering & saying their good-byes to Last Call & paying respect to Ginny Talamasca.

Katterina is partnering up with another designer to make new things. The store is called Archange. The Archange group is also up and running now. But all of Ginny/Katterina's items will be gone as of tonight. :( I am so sorry to see it go. And I'm so sorry for Ginny's family.

The closure was announced in early January. It actually originally sounded like Katterina was going to leave SL altogether and let Lyra Muse take over the sim, but I guess those plans changed.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

I too got the impression that Katterina was going to leave, but I don't blame her for sticking around. SL is a wonderful creative outlet, and life should go on.
