At the dedicatory exercises for the shed last summer, Bentley W.

Race, Managing Director themselves, and devoted to the cultiva- tion of the highest standards in the [771.3 work of orchestral conductors, chorus leaders and instrumental players. 'Tan- glewood' is the ideal location for such a center. "This fortunate combination of cir- cumstances will provide an excellent be- ginning for the realization of Dr. Kous- sevitzky's programme. Indeed, the great- est need will be for scholarships. No one can doubt that from some source the necessary funds will be forthcom- ing, and it is expected that the detailed arrangements for the school will be completed so that its first session may precede the Berkshire Festival of 1940." The trustees of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and trustees of the Berkshire Symphonic Festival are giving serious thought to the development of the physical plant at "Tanglewood" in an- ticipation of the next momentous step in expansion, scheduled for 1940.

  • Austerity Fashion 1945-1951 Bethan Bide .Compressed
    Austerity Fashion 1945-1951 rebuilding fashion cultures in post-war London Bethan Bide Royal Holloway, University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Figure 1: Second-hand shoes for sale at a market in the East End, by Bob Collins, 1948. Museum of London, IN37802. 2 Declaration of authorship I Bethan Bide hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Bethan Bide 8 September 2017 3 Abstract This thesis considers the relationship between fashion, austerity and London in the years 1945 to 1951—categorised by popular history as a period of austerity in Britain. London in the late 1940s is commonly remembered as a drab city in a state of disrepair, leading fashion historians to look instead to Paris and New York for signs of post-war energy and change. Yet, looking closer at the business of making and selling fashion in London, it becomes clear that, behind the shortages, rubble and government regulation, something was stirring. The main empirical section of the thesis is divided into four chapters that explore different facets of London’s fashionable networks. These consider how looking closely at the writing, making, selling and watching of austerity fashion can help us build a better understanding of London fashion in the late 1940s. Together, these chapters reveal that austerity was a driving force for dynamic processes of change— particularly in relation to how women’s ready-to-wear fashions were made and sold in the city—and that a variety of social, economic and political conditions in post- war Britain changed the way manufacturers, retailers and consumers understood the symbolic capital of London fashion.

    GLOBAL MARKETS, LOCAL CREATIVITIES Master Thesis THE ROLE OF LONDON FASHION WEEK MEN’S IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MENSWEAR FASHION INDUSTRY HLIB RODCHENKOV 2020 THE ROLE OF LONDON FASHION WEEK MEN’S IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MENSWEAR INDUSTRY Master Thesis in Global Markets, Local Creativities (GLOCAL) Author: Hlib Rodchenkov EUR student number: 546546 E-mail: [email protected] Academic Year 2018-2020 Supervisor: prof. dr. Ben Wubs (Erasmus University of Rotterdam) Second reader: dr. Santiago Forgas Coll (University of Barcelona) Third reader: dr. Hannah-Louise Clark (University of Glasgow) 2 I want to thank Joyce Stefanova for making me a better person and getting me through this two years journey. 3 Abstract London Fashion Week Men’s is a lens for the analysis of the menswear fashion industry in the UK since the fashion week is both a response to the changes that occurred in the industry before its establishment, but also an accelerator of internal dynamics of these changes. This study focuses on the participants of the fashion week, designers, brands and labels, those who create the content of the event and bring the audience in. The dynamics of their participation, their background and path through the platform are the aspects that define the image of the fashion week and evaluate its sustainability as a business model. At the same time, this thesis is an attempt to tell the history of the menswear fashion week in London and analyze the process of institutionalization of the menswear fashion industry in the UK. Hence, the key research question is aimed to identify the impact of the menswear fashion week in the development of the menswear fashion industry in the UK.
