BRITAIN SO CRAZY for CHRISTIAN AUDIGIER CHAMPAGNE- THIEVES HAVE NICKED the LOT!! Submitted By: Brandnation Integrated Ltd Thursday, 2 July 2009 BRITAIN SO CRAZY FOR CHRISTIAN AUDIGIER CHAMPAGNE- THIEVES HAVE NICKED THE LOT!! Submitted by: Brandnation Integrated Ltd Thursday, 2 July 2009 Never mind queuing outside of TopShop for the latest Kate Moss creation, designer brand crazy Briton's have gone one step further for the Launch of Christian 'King of Fashion' Audigier's new designer Champagne at Movida nightclub in London's West End. Some cheeky chappies have actually gone and stolen the lot - they shouldn't get far with the highly distinctive tattoo design inscribed bottles but never mind Britain, there's more on the way from France coming to your nearest top nightspots soon. Police were called to Movida nightclub in London’s West End on the afternoon of 1st August 2009 – just hours before the global launch of fashion guru Christian Audigier’s new Champagne range. The thieves were caught on the club’s cctv and police are now conducting a thorough investigation into the theft of the Champagne worth several thousand pounds. The launch went ahead anyway with Christian Audigier himself present with VIP guests including celebrities such as Peter Andre, Aleesha Dixon, Danni Behr, Jermaine Defoe, Blue’s Simon Webbe, Alan Carr, DJ Ironik, Bianca Gasgoigne – they mixed with clubgoers enjoying bottles of Christian Audigier fine wine - which has most definitely whetted their appetite for the Champagne that is now being shipped by special delivery to the UK and will be available shortly from leading nightspots and clubs plus selected quality drinks outlets. ABOUT CHRISTIAN AUDIGIER Christian Audigier is an acknowledged style genius – having contributing to the success of iconic brands such as Diesel, Fiorucci and Naf Naf before masterminding the huge global success of Von Dutch and latterly overseeing the rise and rise of the distinctive Ed Hardy fashion brand beloved of hundreds of celebrities, actors and musicians including Britney Spears, and Kanye West. Audigier’s multi-million dollar business empire includes a stable of ‘must have’ designer brands, including Ed Hardy, Christian Audigier, SMET, Crystal Rock, C-Bar-A, Savoir Faire, Evel Knievel , Rock Fabulous and Paco Chicano. A tireless entrepreneur, Audigier has even found time to launch a nightclub - ‘Christian Audigier’ – which has quickly become the hottest nightclub on Vegas’s glamorous Strip. He has also starred on America’s Next Top Model and Cribs on MTV– his close, A-list celebrity friends include Madonna and Michael Jackson who attended his star-studded 50th Birthday party in the USA last year.

Donatella Versace, for example, showed her stance on that concept in her Versace fall couture presentation — a small, tightly edited group of looks displayed on mannequins at the Ritz. It focused on the basics of the house: dramatic, gorgeous red-carpet looks, from wood-nymph exotica to Madame Bovary grandeur, in a palette of the delicate shades of sunrise or sunset. Here, one of Versace’s stunning wrapped and tied evening beauties. For more night stars, see pages 4 and 5.

  • Buying Britney: Pop Culture Icons to Cultural Brands
    Buying Britney: Pop Culture Icons to Cultural Brands Markian 8aray, Master ofArts in Popular Culture Department of Communications, Popular Culture and Film Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master ofArts in Popular Culture Faculty of Graduate Studies, Brock University St.Catharines, Ontario © January 2007 Abstract This thesis demonstrates that mUSIC stars who attain cultural icon status heavily contribute to the fashion styles of the time. Where as style and music have always had a connection, icons such as Britney Spears are now dictating popular style so much so that music artists are becoming full-fledged fashion designers. While much analysis is devoted to Britney Spears, her largest contributions do not lie in the rise of teenage sexuality, but in establishing music artists as vehicles of consumption. The artists' signature has now become a brand and ~ term "signabrand" has been created to define such a trend. To understand such a shift, a review of past literature devoted to fashion and music, largely consisting of subculture theory is examined, followed by a combination of content analysis, political economy, fashion and postmodem theory to address how music stars attain icon status and guide style. 1 Table of Contents Abstract i Table of Contents ii Acknowledgements iii Chapter One Introduction - The Search for Style is in your GhettoBlaster 1-14 Chapter Two The Perfect Fit: Popular Music as Popular Fashion 15-34 Chapter Three Thought That Rock Guitar Could Save My Generation (Turns Out Postmodernism Did): CiIlture and Commodification in Music Video and Clothing 35-53 Chapter Four Just Browsing or Celebrity Window Shopping: Popular Icons as Popular Fashion 54-78 Chapter Five Just Because I'm Sexy Does Not Mean I Want Sex.
