Compatibility:

Omega – Yes, simply purchase the Omega installer and press the install button while wearing the body (available from love’n’lust)
Can I use SLink hands/feet with it? – Yes (however please note torso/leg muscles must be at approximately 50 on the sliders for this to look fitted. To use just alpha out the hands/feet and click the ‘slink fit’ option on the HUD)

Compatible mesh heads – Works with most mesh heads (Lelutka, LOGO, Eve etc)

The HUD:

V2 HUDS

The best bits:
  • 16 different hand positions and 4 different foot heights/types
  • For those that like breasts – three breast options (Natural, Perky and Pushup)
  • I am absolutely in love with the Freya body. The recent huge update to Belleza really made them stand out with their introduction of this body. It has to be the BEST plus sized body I’ve seen yet!
  • Omega compatible
  • The HUD has been hugely improved from V2,0 – it now includes Mask Mode, 8 neck options/sizes, the ability to save alpha combinations and 14 nipple options. The nipples are great, I love the mesh nipple option on these bodies.
  • The body can be worn with Slink feet, with is great for using your slink shoe collection!
  • The alpha options are fantastic, fitting standard mesh is far easier than with V2.0
  • Wardrobe HUD!!!! Save your appliers and flick through your wardrobe HUD to find them/apply them whenever you want, easily! Enough said 😀
  • Savers for nail polish!!! OMG I love this one – 8 fingernail and 8 toenail polish save slots in the HUD. Love love love this!
The worst bits:
  • The bodies are still little glitchy (mostly the Venus body, but an update is expected to fix those soon). They’re a ‘heavier’ mesh, so some users can experience difficulties with the bodies loading, but once cached this should be fine. Particularly with the breast options (because there are 3), using push up can cause layers to overlap and glitch a little.
  • Skin/applier creators are playing ‘catch up’ a little, as the hands/feet have now been changed over to SLUV (which basically means they used to be complex for creators to design around, but now they’re more widely compatible). This does mean there’s a bit of a backlog for designers though.
  • Honestly (and I know, most people will disagree with me) – I think there are too many options lol. Three breast options and three body options… this is great, but for fitmesh lovers like me, this means designers would be making 9 sizes just for Belleza if they did them all!! For that reason, most are only doing either one or two bodies, or the three bodies with the breasts at natural state (making them kinda pointless unless you’re using appliers).
  • Personal dislike here – the length between the knee and the foot seems too short for the legs
Best suited to:

Users who use Belleza skins (not required though obviously, other makers create skins for it), users looking for an amazing curvy shape (Freya) and users who just like to have everything saved in their HUD for ease of use really.

  1. I purchased the Belleza Venus body and I love the shape however where do you get clothes to wear with it? Do you have to buy an additional applier? There were no clear directions of any of this. Any help appreciate

    • Hi Gabby! You can buy clothing with Belleza Mesh Body appliers, or you can buy mesh items that are specifically made for Belleza. I recommend looking at my Mesh Body Clothing Designers list (you’ll see it on the menu bar of my blog), I have listed there a bunch of stores with weblinks that you can purchase from (though there are many!). Enjoy your new body! ❤

  2. I have another question how hard is it to add slink feet to my Belleza. I noticed there is another option but looks like I have to recolor my skin. Is it worth the hassle? Some of my slink shoes fit and some do not only leaving a small strap out of place.

    • Hi Gabby -The Belleza feet are a little thicker than Slink feet, so you’re right you can definitely wear some slink shoes with them, just not all. Wearing slink feet with the body is something most people do. It requires your leg muscles to be set fairly high though. The best thing to do is put the slink feet on and play with the leg muscle slider until it looks right.

      In relation to the skin, just reapply the skin you’re using. The ‘slink’ version of the body is a different mesh object to the main body, so just apply your skin again once and you’re set to go!

  3. I have Lara on one of my accounts, and Venus on the other. I wanted to try Venus just to see how they compare, and now I wish I’d just bought Lara again. I still hold out hope that Belleza will update their product to include better alpha cuts (the cut on the breasts is especially horrid); that would make the body so much more usable for me. I manage, but I have to fuss so much more with Venus than Lara, which also gives me much less hassle with the HUD glitching.

    If you’re low-maintenance and don’t like spending a lot of time ‘perfecting’ your look, I’d skip Venus and go with Lara. So much easier to use, more fitmesh/appliers being made for it, and decidedly less glitchy.

  4. I bought the body because my friend told me I could still wear Slink shoes. Well, some, yes, but not so much. The feet are just a tad too large and look large as well. I agree with Anonymous above me that the alpha cuts are horrible, especially the breasts. They remind me of the first Slink cuts! I wish I could combine my Maitreya alpha cuts with the Belleza body.

  6. I agree on too many options but in a different way. Too many options at once…
    – As in, I think we need different bodies for different options, or to make the body mod so unused options can be deleted. Not hidden in a HUD, but full on deleted.

    Why? Lag.

    The more you pile in there, the more complex the mesh you’re walking around with, the more laggy it will be. Getting it cached won’t fix that… it might load in faster, but still heat up your computer just as much.

    – I’ve no problems with the Belleza body’s knees.
    But the arms are too short in your sample pictures. 😛
