Every two years, Bellyitch Blog ‘s editor-in-chief JJ poured through hundreds of paper and online brochures of top companies and hand-selected those that skimmed the cream of the top. She selected those items she witnessed were coveted and used by celebrities and Madison Ave or Beverly Hills wives and their nannies. Those that topped the price bracket in each genre usually also made the cut as did those that were manufactured using the best quality materials, well-constructed, durable, double stitched and clearly took quite some time to assemble. Readers, fans and voyeurs of the fab life enjoyed the chance to gawk at the favorite items that their favorite celebrity loved the most, what they outfitted themselves in while pregnant, which strollers they pushed their posh tots in, how they outfitted their celebrity babies, which exquisite piece of crib furniture their newborns napped in and what “it” bag they flung over their shoulders while out and about with baby dodging the paparazzi.

  • The Aesthetics of Mainstream Androgyny
    The Aesthetics of Mainstream Androgyny: A Feminist Analysis of a Fashion Trend Rosa Crepax Goldsmiths, University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of Ph.D. in Sociology May 2016 1 I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Rosa Crepax Acknowledgements I would like to thank Bev Skeggs for making me fall in love with sociology as an undergraduate student, for supervising my MA dissertation and encouraging me to pursue a PhD. For her illuminating guidance over the years, her infectious enthusiasm and the constant inspiration. Beckie Coleman for her ongoing intellectual and moral support, all the suggestions, advice and the many invaluable insights. Nirmal Puwar, my upgrade examiner, for the helpful feedback. All the women who participated in my fieldwork for their time, patience and interest. Francesca Mazzucchi for joining me during my fieldwork and helping me shape my methodology. Silvia Pezzati for always providing me with sunshine. Laura Martinelli for always being there when I needed, and Martina Galli, Laura Satta and Miriam Barbato for their friendship, despite the distance. My family, and, in particular, my mum for the support and the unpaid editorial services. And finally, Goldsmiths and everyone I met there for creating an engaging and stimulating environment. Thank you. Abstract Since 2010, androgyny has entered the mainstream to become one of the most widespread trends in Western fashion. Contemporary androgynous fashion is generally regarded as giving a new positive visibility to alternative identities, and signalling their wider acceptance. But what is its significance for our understanding of gender relations and living configurations of gender and sexuality? And how does it affect ordinary people's relationship with style in everyday life? Combining feminist theory and an aesthetics that contrasts Kantian notions of beauty to bridge matters of ideology and affect, my research investigates the sociological implications of this phenomenon.

  • Vogue Magazine the Glossy Has Spawned an Industry of Imitators, Two Documentaries, a Major Hollywood Film And, Perhaps Most Enduringly, a Modern Dance Craze
    Lookout By the Numbers Vogue Magazine The glossy has spawned an industry of imitators, two documentaries, a major Hollywood film and, perhaps most enduringly, a modern dance craze. Itís also gone through some serious changes over the course of its 121 years in print. In recent years, the fashion bible has traded willowy models for celebrities of all kinds, a trend that reached its apex in April when the left-leaning, Chanel-shaded Brit Anna Wintour (the magazineís seventh editor in chief) decided to put ó gasp! ó a reality star on its cover.

  • Le Calendrier 2017 Présenté À Paris Par Peter Lindbergh
    DOSSIER DE PRESSE PIRELLI : LE CALENDRIER 2017 PRÉSENTÉ À PARIS PAR PETER LINDBERGH Rendez-vous sur www.pirellicalendar.com pour accéder aux contenus exclusifs sur la nouvelle édition de The Cal™ Paris, le 29 novembre 2016 – Le Calendrier Pirelli 2017, réalisé par Peter Lindbergh, grand nom de la photographie sur la scène internationale, a été présenté aujourd’hui à Paris. L’édition 2017 du Calendrier, qui suit celle de 2016 signée Annie Leibovitz, fait du virtuose allemand de la photographie le seul photographe à avoir été invité pour la troisième fois à réaliser le Calendrier Pirelli, après l’édition de 1996, mise en scène dans le désert El Mirage, en Californie, et l’édition 2002, réalisée dans les studios de la Paramount Pictures, à Los Angeles. Sans oublier le cinquantième anniversaire du Calendrier, en 2014, à l’occasion duquel Pirelli fit de nouveau appel à Peter Lindbergh, aux côtés de Patrick Demarchelier. Si l’on tient compte des années de pause dans sa publication, le Calendrier Pirelli, né en 1964, en est cette année à sa quarante-quatrième édition. Le photographe lui-même tient à expliquer le fil conducteur du Calendrier Pirelli 2017: «A une époque où les femmes sont représentées par les médias et partout ailleurs comme des ambassadrices de la perfection et de la beauté, j’ai estimé qu’il était important de rappeler à tous qu’il existe une autre beauté, plus réelle et authentique, non manipulée par la publicité ou autre. Une beauté qui exprime l’individualité, le courage d’être soi-même et la sensibilité».

  • Tailoring the British Landscape: Tim Walker's Stage Designed Fashion
    Tailoring the British Landscape: Tim Walker’s Stage Designed Fashion Photographs Julie MORÈRE Université de Nantes Tailoring the British Landscape: Tim Walker’s Stage Designed Fashion Photographs Julie MORÈRE Université de Nantes CRINI, EA 1162 [email protected] Résumé Tim Walker est connu pour ses séries photographiques insolites très britanniques publiées dans Vogue ou Vanity Fair, et pour son absence d’intérêt pour les images de défilés de mode, ou les photos prises en studio (pour lesquelles il éprouve cependant une curiosité grandissante). En lieu et place de cela, il bouleverse l’ordre des intérieurs des grandes demeures britanniques, ou invente des mises en scènes extravagantes en extérieur, qu’il s’agisse d’un dîner bohémien suspendu dans les arbres, d’un squelette burtonien dans un champ de roses déclinant tous les tons de rouges, d’une soucoupe volante planant au-dessus d’une horde de chiens lancés à la poursuite d’un renard dans la campagne anglaise, ou d’une poupée géante déambulant dans les bois d’un Northumberland mystérieux. Les grands espaces du paysage anglais, des contrées insulaires de l’ouest au comté du Northumberland, jusqu’au nord, vers les Highlands écossais, sont le terrain de jeu du photographe, et lorsque l’extérieur n’est pas physiquement présent, il ressurgit par le truchement d’arbres, de ruisseaux, de petits lacs, de clairières ou de neige recréés artificiellement à l’intérieur, entre les murs des grandes demeures. Walker donne vie sans contraintes à ses visions, et utilise la photographie de mode comme outil pour explorer ses rêves et désirs fantaisistes.

    Epilogue 1941—Present By BARBARA LA ROCCO ABOUT A WEEK before A Maritime History of New York was re- leased the United States entered the Second World War. Between Pearl Harbor and VJ-Day, more than three million troops and over 63 million tons of supplies and materials shipped overseas through the Port. The Port of New York, really eleven ports in one, boasted a devel- oped shoreline of over 650 miles comprising the waterfronts of five boroughs of New York City and seven cities on the New Jersey side. The Port included 600 individual ship anchorages, some 1,800 docks, piers, and wharves of every conceivable size which gave access to over a thousand warehouses, and a complex system of car floats, lighters, rail and bridge networks. Over 575 tugboats worked the Port waters. Port operations employed some 25,000 longshoremen and an additional 400,000 other workers.* Ships of every conceivable type were needed for troop transport and supply carriers. On June 6, 1941, the U.S. Coast Guard seized 84 vessels of foreign registry in American ports under the Ship Requisition Act. To meet the demand for ships large numbers of mass-produced freight- ers and transports, called Liberty ships were constructed by a civilian workforce using pre-fabricated parts and the relatively new technique of welding. The Liberty ship, adapted by New York naval architects Gibbs & Cox from an old British tramp ship, was the largest civilian- 262 EPILOGUE 1941 - PRESENT 263 made war ship.
