Working out in Washington Square Park, admiring the Flatiron building or getting a quick coffee at Ralph’s Café are just a few of the things that contribute to Adam’s style. His modern gentleman and dapper looks, in photoshoots taken next to iconic NYC landmarks, accentuate the current Polo Ralph Lauren collection for men. TOPSHOP Global Design Director, Jacqui Markham, reveals how London and British style inspires the brand’s collections, what her exciting job entails, whose style she admires and how she’d describe her own personal style. In her closing words Jacqui says: “fashion should not be serious. It is about having fun, just experiment”. On the other side of the Atlantic, Jonathan Cheung – Senior Vice President Design Levi’s – shares his favourite spots in San Francisco, the world’s denim capital.

The appellants (collectively “Topshop”) own and operate the well known Topshop retail fashion stores. In 2012 Topshop began to sell in its stores and through its website a fashion t-shirt displaying a clearly recognisable image of Rihanna. The image was derived from a photograph of Rihanna which was taken when she was on a video shoot for a single from her “Talk That Talk” album. Rihanna is looking directly at the camera with her hair tied above her head with a headscarf. It is, as the judge thought, a striking image and similar images had been used by Rihanna in connection with the Talk That Talk album.

  • Rihanna V Topshop & Passing Off: a Love/Hate Relationship
    Crefovi was a speaker at 2013 Cosmetic compliance summit in London The new European Union EU(‟”) cosmetics regulation entered into force on 11 July 2013. Many, in the cosmetics industry, are still confused over the exact wording of the regulation, which nonetheless implies tightening safety controls and information on cosmetic products. This topic was debated during the 2013 Cosmetic compliance summit, in London, on 15 October 2013. The Cosmetic compliance summit was Europe’s first two day event dedicated entirely to the EU cosmetic regulation and its implications. This summit gave brand owners, cosmetic designers and formulators, as well as cosmetics manufacturing companies, a chance to network, share best practices, discuss obstacles and overcome some of the biggest challenges the cosmetics industry faces today. Key industry professionals met in London at the Cosmetic compliance summit to discuss the surrounding issues, on 15 and 16 October 2013. Annabelle Gauberti, founding and managing partner of Crefovi, an expert on the law of luxury goods, spoke on Wednesday 16 October 2013, at the Cosmetic compliance summit, about the legal aspects of the EU Cosmetic products regulation and about how to become legally compliant with this EU regulation. You can watch her presentation here: While there is ample information in the industry surrounding the cosmetic products regulation, from a manufacturer and safety perspective, there is less available discussing the legal implications this regulation throws up. Hear from a leading legal professional on the key areas you need to be focusing on from a legal point of view, in this webcast recorded during the 2013 Cosmetic compliance summit in London, on 15 October 2013.

  • 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.

The social-led campaign will run across YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, Facebook and Instagram for two weeks from today and is targeted at driving awareness among customers in the UK, US and Germany. It coincides with the first major drops of new product from the brands on ASOS since the acquisition and marks the first moment that customers will be able to access a wider range of items on the ASOS platform. Available product has already doubled since early February, with plans in place to double it again over the next few weeks. José Antonio Ramos, Chief Commercial Officer at ASOS, said: “Topshop and Topman were well-established, strong-performing brands on ASOS prior to the acquisition, and we know our customers loved them just as much as us. Their integration with ASOS is going well, and our long-term plans to revitalise the brands and inject new life into them will translate into more new, exciting and fashion-led products launching in the months ahead.” Alongside activations and new customer discount codes in the UK and Germany, ASOS will be running 25%-off promotions for each of the brands across Europe, Australia and the US today and Tuesday, as a way of welcoming new and returning customers and inviting them to reexperience the brands.
