  • Council of Fashion Designers of America
    Council of Fashion Designers of America ANNUAL REPORT 2017 The mission of the Council of Fashion Designers of America is to strengthen the impact of American fashion in the global economy. B 1 Letter from the Chairwoman, Diane von Furstenberg, and the President and Chief Executive Officer, Steven Kolb In fashion, we respond to the world we live in, a point that was powerfully driven home in 2017. We were excited to see talents with broad cultural backgrounds and political ideas begin to express their experiences and beliefs through their collections. Diversity moved into the spotlight in ways we have never seen before. Designers embraced new approaches to business, from varying show formats to disruptive delivery cycles. It was also the year to make your voices heard, and CFDA listened. We engaged in civic initiatives important to our industry and partnered with Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, and FWD.us. We also relaunched our CFDA Health Initiative with guidelines to help those impacted by sexual assault or other forms of abuse. There’s no going back. In 2018, CFDA is moving ahead at full speed with an increased focus on inclusivity and women in fashion, the latter through an exciting new study with Glamour magazine. We may be a reflection of the world we live in, but we also work hard to make that world a better place. Altruism, after all, never goes out of style. 3 CFDA STRENGTHENED PILLARS WITH MISSION-DRIVEN ACTIONS MEMBERSHIP Fashion Professional Fashion Civic+ Retail Partnership Week + Market Development Supply Chain Philanthropy Opportunities SUSTAINABILITY INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT SOCIAL AND EDITORIAL MARKETING AND EVENTS KEY UNCHANGED MODIFIED NEW PROVIDED INITIATIVES RELEVANT TO DESIGNERS EMERITUS AT EVERY STAGE OF CAREER DESIGNERS • Board Engagement • Philanthropy and Civic ICONIC Responsibility DESIGNERS • Mentorship • Editorial Visibility • Board Engagement • Fashion Week • Philanthropy and Civic ESTABLISHED Responsibility DESIGNERS • Mentorship • Editorial Visibility • NETWORK.

Yet in this case the photographer is Dennis Hopper and the photographs, remarkably, are never before published. Shot in Taos, New Mexico, where Hopper was based following the production of Easy Rider in the late 60s, the series was tak- en with disposable cameras and developed in drugstore photo labs. This clothbound collection documents Hopper’s friends and family among the ruins and open vistas of the desert land- scape, female nudes in shadowy interiors, road trips to and from his home state of Kansas and impromptu still lifes of discarded objects. These images, capturing iconic individuals, wide-open Western terrain and drug-addled fun, create a captivating view of the 60s and 70s that combines political idealism and opti- mism with California cool. Dennis Hopper(1936–2010) was born in Dodge City, Kansas. He first appeared on television in 1954, and quickly became a cult actor, known for films such asRebel Without a Cause (1955), Easy Rider (1969), The American Friend (1977), Apocalypse Now (1979), Blue Velvet (1986) and Hoosiers (1986). In 1988, he directed the critically acclaimed Colors.

    A CONTENT ANALYSIS OF ADVERTISER INFLUENCE ON EDITORIAL CONTENT IN FASHION MAGAZINES by CANDACE CAMILLE WALTON (Under the Direction of Jose F. Blanco) ABSTRACT The purpose of this exploratory research is to address and analyze the amount of influence that advertisers have over editorial content in the media, specifically men‟s and women‟s fashion magazines. The sample consisted of a total of sixteen fashion magazines, with four different magazine titles (two targeted towards women and two targeted towards men) representing two different publishers. A survey was also conducted with a member of the editorial staff of one of the publications in the sample. Descriptive statistics (percentages) and SPSS correlation tests were used to test relationships among the variables and answer the research questions. The results yielded percentages that pointed towards editorial independence from advertisers, however, significant correlation was found between advertisers and editorial content as well.

    China Institute Announces Finalists, Esteemed Judges of Its 2018 Fashion Design Competition Winner to be announced at the China Institute Fashion Show in April NEW YORK, January 15, 2018 – Today, China Institute announced the eleven finalists of its first-ever, Fashion Design Competition, which supports emerging designers and promotes creativity inspired by China’s culture and aesthetics in contemporary global design. The finalists will showcase their collections at the China Institute Fashion Show on April 16, 2018 for the chance to win $10,000. China Institute created a board of renowned judges with diverse backgrounds at the intersection of art, fashion and design to review and evaluate the designers’ submissions. The judges include: Bil Donovan, Dior’s Artist-in-Residence and fashion illustrator; Hazel Clark, Professor of Design Studies and Chair of Fashion at Parsons School of Design; Lyn Slater, cultural influencer, model, writer, professor at Fordham University and founder of the “Accidental Icon” blog; Peter Som, the inspirational designer and fashion consultant; and Karen Van Godtsenhoven, Associate Curator of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. The finalists will create a capsule collection based on their submitted designs. During this process they will be mentored by fashion designer, creative director, and professor David Leung. Judges will review the completed collections for quality and creativity, and will make a final decision after seeing the culmination of these designs during the China Institute Fashion Show. The eleven finalists were selected from a large pool of applicants from around the globe. The finalists were chosen based on their illustrations and collection proposal, including technical design details, fabrics and material swatches they plan to use, and a written concept on how their designs were inspired by China.

Lesser properties, however, have their backs against the wall as retailers such as Sears Holdings Corp., Best Buy, Barnes & Noble and J.C. Penney Co. Inc. close stores, and a string of other chains go bankrupt. Many mall operators are selling their underperform- ing properties. For example, Macerich sold 13 centers in the last 18 months, said Robert Perlmutter, executive vice president of leasing, adding, “They were in smaller markets and were lower-growth assets.” Basic “We’re also selling C and D malls,” said Joseph Coradino, chief executive officer of PREIT. “We sold three last year and have three for sale now and one in agreement. We’ll end up as a company that owns A and B malls.” “The strongest survive,” said Robert Taubman, Instincts chairman, president and ceo of Taubman Centers Inc.
