  • Hollywood Sett Fra Wall Street En Begivenhetsstudie Av Celebrity Endorsement
    Emilie Kjøtrød ________________________________ Hollywood sett fra Wall Street En begivenhetsstudie av celebrity endorsement i Masteroppgave i Finans Handelshøyskolen ved HiOA Sammendrag I denne oppgaven benyttes begivenhetsstudie som metode for å undersøke hvilken effekt, om noen, de to markedsføringsstrategiene celebrity endorsement og celebrity testimonial har på aksjekursen til det aktuelle selskapet. Ved hjelp av 213 observasjoner, fordelt på 92 endorsement og 121 testimonial, finner man at strategien ikke nødvendigvis er like aktuell som den var for bare 10-20 år siden. Resultatene viser ikke-signifikante positive gjennomsnittlige akkumulerte unormale avkastninger, som reduseres dersom man tar ut ekstremverdier som muligens kan tilskrives tilfeldigheter. Dette støttes av fersk forskning på området og resultatene styrker dermed også semi-sterk markedseffisiens. Videre vurderes årsaken til at denne formen for markedsføringsstrategi trolig har sett sine glansdager. I tillegg legges det fremforslag til videre forskningsspørsmål knyttet til fenomenet. Abstract The following thesis is an event study examining how, and if, the two marketing strategies celebrity endorsement and celebrity testimonial affects cumulative average abnormal returns of the company. By analyzing 213 observations distributed as 92 celebrity endorsements and 121 celebrity testimonials the study reveals that the strategy is not necessarily as effective as it was just a few decades ago. The results show an insignificant, yet positive, cumulative average abnormal return. The effect is possible to reduce by disregarding extreme observations due to chance. The results of this study supports recent studies, and suggests semi-strong market efficiency. Further, potential causes towards the marketing strategy’s reduction of significance is considered. Finally, suggestions of further research linked to the findings and the phenomena is presented.

    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.

DRIVE BY JACQUELYN LEWIS anny Schwartz is enthusiastic about commemorating Schwartz & Benjamin’s 90th year, but D the company CEO and third- generation footwear executive is hardly nostalgic. “I want to celebrate all the milestones we’ve hit throughout the years, [but I also] want people to see that we are a modern, vibrant company,” he said. “Maybe we are looking back [for a moment], but it really is all about going forward.” Indeed, New York-based Schwartz & Ben- jamin has set its sights on the future with a sharpened focus. Its strategy centers on streamlining product offerings and working with its existing partners that already have an international presence or the potential to go global. To that end, the company recently inked a licensing deal with Derek Lam, which launched Danny Schwartz, with footwear for spring ’13 and will continue Barbara Schwartz with the introduction of the diffusion line 10 and Steve Shapiro Crosby Derek Lam this fall. “We expect substantial growth for all our current brands,” said Barbara Schwartz, direc- team parted ways with one of its licensors, Steve Jobs, whose biography they’ve praised tor of product development and wife of Danny.

SECTION II STICKING TO ‘A’ MALLS Developers Boost New Centers, Formats By SHARON EDELSON LAS VEGAS — The shopping center sector has always been Darwinian, but now more than ever, it’s survival of the fittest. With attendance at last week’s ReCon convention here reaching a record high of 33,500 — a number TUESDAY, MAY 27, 2014 Q $3.00 Q WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY not seen since before the recession — the industry’s WWD mood is relatively buoyant, as long as the focus is on so-called “A” malls. 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.

  • Multi-Company Section 301 Tariff Letter 090618 Final
    September 6, 2018 The Honorable Robert Lighthizer U.S. Trade Representative Office of the U.S. Trade Representative Executive Office of the President 600 17th Street, NW Washington, DC 20006 Post‐Hearing Comments on Proposed Determination of Action Pursuant to Section 301: China's Acts, Policies, and Practices Related to Technology Transfer, Intellectual Property, and Innovation (Docket Number: USTR‐2018‐0026) Dear Mr. Ambassador: We are writing to express our very strong opposition to proposals to impose a 10% to 25% tax on consumer and commercial products, such as textiles and fabrics, clothing, shoes, home goods, headwear, accessories, sporting goods, children’s products, furniture, and travel goods from China. Some of these items were proposed by the Administration in Tranche 3. Others have been proposed to be added to the proposed list for taxation by outside groups. We support holding our trading partners accountable and using targeted trade remedies against intellectual property theft and other proven trade violations. However, further taxing legitimately traded consumer and commercial products is not the solution. Imposing additional tariffs on U.S. imports of these products from China would disproportionately hurt U.S. consumers, U.S. workers, and U.S. companies. These tariffs are paid by U.S. companies and ultimately U.S. consumers. These tariffs are not paid by Chinese exporters. We cannot simply shift our supply chains outside of China without massive disruption and cost increases due to materials availability, quality, compliance, and capacity in other countries. Moreover, because China accounts for such a large percentage of imports for consumption or further manufacturing, any additional tariffs would likely translate into added costs and price increases in the United States.

  • SPRING/SUMMER 2018 Yes, It's a Moment of Change. Disruption
    THE FASHION GROUP FOUNDATION PRESENTS SPRING/SUMMER 2018 TREND OVERVIEW BY MARYLOU LUTHER N E W Y O R K • LONDON • MILAN • PARIS RICK OWENS COMME DES GARÇONS Yes, it’s a moment of change. Disruption. Chaos. Confusion. Fear. Fortitude. Love. Dystopia. Utopia. Minimalist. Maximalist. Past Perfect. Future Tense. Good. Evil. Genteel. Surreal. Sadism. Masochism. Comfort. Discomfort. In this game of Presto Chango, woman is re-imagined. She can be a feminine feminist. She can express her sexuality any way she wants. Fashion’s New Woman, ruffles extant, is also track-suit ready. She’s still a sport, but her playing field now includes a trip to the moon, lunar boots and all. So where does the street come in? It’s Game On for making the ordinary extraordinary, in the words of Demna Gvsalia. Examples include Dries Van Noten’s floral-printed satin bomber, Tommy Hilfiger’s puffed-up varsity jacket, Yeohlee’s waxed linen trench jacket, Tibi’s high-rise paper bag pants by Amy Smilovic and Jun Takahashi’s amazing reversible pants for Undercover. Side-striped track pants are “everywhere”, running from the street to the club. Marc Jacobs does them in satin for evening. Our color story begins with white, sanctioned for the first time by the prince of darkness, Goth king, Rick Owens. As he mused, “Nobody has celebrated doom more than I have, but the responsible thing now is to talk about hope and the way forward.” And white is hope. It is also pure and holy, somewhere between bridal and ghost. And it’s “everywhere”, importantly in accessories as well as apparel.
