    Redefining Tied Neckwear moodboard 02 Defying Expectations of a Masculine “Relic” Libertie aims to display the appeal of tied neckwear through emphasisizing quality, personal application, and visual subtext. The final considerations for a consumer’s experience with Libertie products revolve around a strong preservation of the brand’s visual identity. At the same time however, care is taken to express a balance with neutrality where neccessary, allowing the product on display to speak for itself as a universal and transformative belief, simultaneously flashy yet disciplined. This strengthens the perception of the brand as a sincere curator of the fashion that seeks to promote the consumer’s personal enjoyment of the product. libertie process book identity development 03 libertie process book identity development 04 libertie process book identity development 05 1/3x x y y y libertie process book promotional graphics development 06 The Libertie promotional graphics help consumers visualize the different archetypes to brand is seeking to broach beyond the traditional professional male stereotype.

  • Some English Names of Clothing Ending in -Wear
    Revista Alicantina de Estudios Ingleses 20 (2007): 95-117 Some English Names of Clothing Ending in -wear David L. Gold Webster’s Third New International Dictionary of the English Language: Unabridged (1961) notes objectively that the word wear is “often used in combination”. Not everyone, however, has been satisfied with all the combinations. In A History of Modern Colloquial English (Oxford, Basil Blackwell, 1936), Henry Cecil Wyld wrote: “[...] we may begin our brief catalogue of curiosities, and we thus designate them not because of any inherent strangeness or eccentricity in the words themselves, but on account of the curious fact that what are normal and natural elements of speech in some circles, are regarded in others as ‘vulgar’ and laughable. We may begin with what have been called ‘shopwalker words’, such as vest for waistcoat, singlet for vest, neckwear for ties, footwear for boots and shoes. It is possible that some regard all these terms as graceful and elegant modes of expression, far superior to the homelier words which they displace. On the other hand, there are many speakers who would as soon think of uttering horrible oaths before ladies, as of using such words seriously” (p. 17). Almost fifty years later, -wear was condemned again. In I Stand Corrected: More on Language (New York, Times Books, 1984), William Safire first quoted Marilyn Plummer (“a new ‘retailese’ I’ve been seeing and hearing in the media: the new fascination with -wear”) and then went on to say that “She instances eyewear, footwear, neckwear, swimwear. ‘I realize that they’re probably catchall words to cover, in the case of eyewear, glasses and contact lenses.
