HOUSE: A COMBAT FOR COUTURE COMMAND OF LUXURY LABELS Carly Elizabeth Souther* ABSTRACT As an industry that thrives on-rather than succumbs to- adversity, the couture corporate world demands innovation and encourages risks. When combined with successful marketing and savvy business practices, these risks can result in large payoffs, which exist, primarily, due to the nature of the global fashion market.' Endless consumption drives the market, rewarding fashion houses that cater to current trends with top-line growth and damning those whom fail to suffer decreased net earnings. In order to remain a viable player in the fashion industry, the house must have the resources to market and manufacture the product in a timely manner, as well as incur the costs if a collection is poorly received.

  • Fashion in an Age of Technology
    MANUS X MACHINA: FASHION IN AN AGE OF TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCTION The traditional distinction between the haute couture and prêt-à-porter has always been between the custom-made and the ready-made. Haute couture clothes are singular models fitted to the body of a specific individual, while prêt-à-porter garments are produced in multiples for the mass market in standard sizes to fit many body types. Implicit in this difference is the assumption that the handwork techniques involved in the haute couture are superior to the mechanized methods of prêt-à-porter. Over the years, however, each discipline has regularly embraced the practices of the other. Despite the fact that this mutual exchange continues to accelerate, the dichotomy between the hand (manus) and the machine (machina) still characterizes the production processes of the haute couture and prêt-à-porter in the twenty-first century. Instead of presenting the handmade and the machine-made as oppositional, this exhibition suggests a spectrum or continuum of practice, whereby the hand and the machine are equal and mutual protagonists in solving design problems, enhancing design practices, and, ultimately, advancing the future of fashion. It prompts a rethinking of the institutions of the haute couture and prêt-à-porter, especially as the technical separations between the two grow increasingly ambiguous and the quality of designer prêt-à-porter more refined. At the same time, the exhibition questions the cultural and symbolic meanings of the hand-machine dichotomy. Typically, the hand has been identified with exclusivity and individuality as well as with elitism and the cult of personality.

  • Different Types of Denim Fabric
    Different Types of Denim Fabric Contributor By Shelley Moore, eHow Contributing Writer Article Rating: (3 Ratings) • • • • Add to Favorites • • Denim clothing never goes out of style. It's attractive and durable, perfect for most casual occasions. Denim is most common as the fabric in jeans, but is also used for shirts, jackets, skirts, dresses, hats, handbags and more. Several different types of denim fabric are available depending on the function and look people are after. Cotton Serge 1. The traditional denim is 100 percent cotton serge. Additionally, denim is often blended with other fabrics. Raw Denim 2. Raw denim is dark, unwashed fabric that is stiff and very durable. It fades with wear in certain areas, creating a natural distressed look. It also fades with washing. Selvage Denim 3. The premium type of raw denim fabric is selvage denim, with tight weaving and natural edges that will not unravel. Selvage denim is more expensive than other raw denim. Stretch Denim 4. The blend closest to pure denim is called stretch denim, which usually includes 2 or 3 percent Spandex material for a bit of give in the fabric. Poly-Denim 5. Poly-denim blends look like a dressier denim, and are more lightweight, which makes them more convenient to wash and dry. They also are more resistant to wrinkling. Ramie-Denim 6. Denim is also sometimes blended with the plant fiber ramie, which reduces wrinkling and gives the fabric a softer feel.

    Master Les paradoxes de la stratégie social media des marques de luxe : entre traditions et développements numériques BOVIER, Morgane Rachel Abstract Ce mémoire tient pour objet l'analyse des stratégies social media que Chanel, Dior et Louis Vuitton ont mises en place sur les réseaux sociaux. L'intérêt réside dans une compréhension de ce qui se joue. En effet, le luxe et le digital sont deux univers qu'au premier abord tout oppose (savoir-faire ancestraux et modernité, stabilité temporelle et mutations constantes, secret et transparence). De plus, le luxe possède un capital social et financier conséquent. Ces trois marques sont connues de tous et possèdent un chiffre d'affaire qui touche au milliard. Donc, quel intérêt ont-elles à être présentes sur les plateformes sociales ? Nous allons démontrer tout au long de ce travail que ces deux univers peuvent s'allier et se compléter faisant ainsi de ces trois Maisons des actrices influentes sur les plateformes sociales.
