Master Thesis City Branding Master Thesis City Branding The perception of Milan as a World Fashion Capital. January 25th, 2011. Name Karolina Jedras Student number 324055 e-mail address [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. Erwin Dekker Co-reader: Dr. Christian Handke Acknowledgements This thesis represents my interest in the fashion business and urban economics and is a culmination of the knowledge gained during my graduate studies at Erasmus University, Rotterdam and as an exchange student at Bocconi University, Milan. I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Erwin Dekker for his guidance and patience. I believe that his constructive comments helped me to improve this work. A very special thanks goes to Francesca Rinaldi, for giving me the opportunity to be a part of SDA Bocconi Research and providing me with valuable sources of data. I recognize the fact that this research would not have been possible without her support and kindness. Finally, I would also like to thank my family for their love, support and generosity that made my experience abroad possible. Karolina Jedras, Krakow, January 2011 Abstract In the 21st century, fashion is a significant part of the creative industries and an important contributor to the economical development of cities. Moreover, the projected reputation as a fashion capital is strongly related to the potential benefits of cultural and educational tourism, increase in investment and prestige of a city. The idea of the fashion city is multidimensional, and it is difficult to present the key characteristics by which a fashion capital can be defined. The multidimensionality of the concept leaves it open for interpretation and development of specific sources of competitive advantage in this area. In fact, in many world fashion cities, public authorities have begun to give increasing significance to their own place positioning in a global hierarchical structure of fashion cities, aspiring to become number one - the fashion capital of the world (Gilbert, 2006). City boosters and planners attempt to implement branding strategies in order to enhance a city ‗fashionable‘ reputation and contribute to the city‘s economical development. In order to do so, they utilize various branding channels, and attempt to shape brand identity into a more recognizable brand image. The purpose of the thesis is to answer the question of what is the relationship between Milan‘s anticipated identity as a world fashion city and the image of the city as a fashion capital among international students (education tourists). In order to examine the effectiveness of shaping urban identity into city‘s image various branding attempts initiated by the Milan City Administration will be analyzed. Among the researched branding channels are promotional events linked to fashion like Milan Fashion Week, fashion fairs, artistic and cultural events linked to fashion open to the wider public, existence of internationally renowned fashion brands and specialized retail districts. Key words: City branding, Fashion, Milan, Fashion Capital, brand identity, brand image, Milan Fashion Week, Fashion Fairs, retail clusters, international students in Milan 3 Table of contents Introduction ................................................................................................................................................. 7 1.

  • Italian Fashion & Innovation
    Italian Fashion & Innovation Derek Pante Azmina Karimi Morgan Taylor Russell Taylor Introduction In Spring 2008, the Italia Design team researched the fashion industry in Italy, and discussed briefly how it fits into Italy’s overall innovation. The global public’s perception of Italy and Italian Design rests to some degree on the visibility and success of Fashion Design. The fashion and design industries account for a large percentage of Milan’s total economic output— as Milan goes economically, so goes Italy (Foot, 2001). Fashion Design clearly contributes to “brand Italia,” as well as to Italian culture generally. Yet, fashion is not our focus in this study: innovation and design is. Fashion’s goals are not the same as design. For one, fashion operates on “style,” design works on “language,” and style to a serious designer is usually the opposite of good design. Yet to ignore the area possibly creates a blind spot. With the resource this year of some students with great interest in this area it was decided that we should begin to investigate how fashion in Italy contributes to innovation, and how fashion in Milan and other centers in the North of Italy sustain “Creative Centers” where measurable agglomeration (a sign of innovation) occurs. Delving into Italian Fashion allowed us to rethink certain paradigms. For one, how we look at Florence as a design center. Florence has very little Industrial Design and, because of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage designation, has very little contemporary architectural culture. This reality became clear after four years of returning to the Renaissance city.

    Looking Back on Milan Fashion Week Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) Looking Back on Milan Fashion Week Kayla Pantano (September 27, 2016) A recap of the six-day event, where Italian designers paid homage to heritage while heralding innovation. Milan Fashion Week [2] commenced with a lunch hosted by Prime Minister Matteo Renzi [3], which instilled a further sense of purpose into the leading Italian designers, who were already eager to reveal their cherished designs. Manifesting that same energy, the six-day event closed with a spotlight on emerging designers, whose looks emanated youth and adventure. Overall, key collections debuted in Milan embodied heritage and zeitgeist. A blend of timelessness and trendy vibes, this season was filled with jaw-breaking innovation that drew on history and imagination. The highlights include an abundance of couture performance gear, heaps of floral, and glitter, of course. Day 1 Page 1 of 4 Looking Back on Milan Fashion Week Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) Gucci [4] kicked things off with a fantasy-filled collection rich in colors, fabrics, and prints, featuring embroidery reminiscent of a fairytale and accessories just as whimsical as the clothes, from floppy hats to square and sequined eyewear. Creative director Alessandro Michele [5]’s bohemian aesthetic shifted to favor a more punk look that veered through the eras, which included inspirations from the beloved 1970s, evident in the denim bell-bottoms and slim jackets. Needless to say, the reference point of Peter Dundas [6] at Roberto Cavalli [7] was also the ‘70s. But with a pioneering spirit in mind his mélange of influences, from Buffalo Soldier to Victoriana, takes you all around the globe.
