Press Kit the History of French Lingerie at the Sagamore Hotel Miami Beach
LINGERIE FRANCAISE EXHIBITION PRESS KIT THE HISTORY OF FRENCH LINGERIE AT THE SAGAMORE HOTEL MIAMI BEACH Continuing its world tour, the Lingerie Francaise exhibition will be presented at the famous Sagamore Hotel Miami Beach during the Art Basel Fair in Miami Beach from November 29th through December 6th, 2016. Free and open to all, the exhibition showcases the ingeniousness and creativity of French lingerie which, for over a century and a half, has been worn by millions of women worldwide. The exhibition is an immersion into the collections of eleven of the most prestigious French brands: AUBADE, BARBARA, CHANTELLE, EMPREINTE, IMPLICITE, LISE CHARMEL, LOU, LOUISA BRACQ, MAISON LEJABY, PASSIONATA and SIMONE PÉRÈLE. With both elegance and playfulness, the story of an exceptional craft unfolds in a space devoted to contemporary art. The heart of this historic exhibition takes place in the Game Room of the Sagamore Hotel. Beginning with the first corsets of the 1880’s, the presentation documents the custom-made creations of the 1930’s, showcases the lingerie of the 1950’s that was the first to use nylon, and culminates with the widespread use of Lycra® in the 1980’s, an epic era of forms and fabrics. This section focuses on contemporary and future creations; including the Lingerie Francaise sponsored competition’s winning entry by Salima Abes, a recent graduate from the university ESMOD Paris. An exclusive collection of approximately one hundred pieces will be exhibited, all of them emblematic of a technique, textile, and/or fashion innovation. A selection of landmark pieces will trace both the history of intimacy and the narrative of women’s liberation. -

Alexander Wang Conclusion References The Marketplace 1. Political Environment Created and sold mainly in the United States, Proenza Schouler is a young brand that was born just a bit more than ten years ago and quickly became important on the fash- ion scene. In its country of origin, the political environment hasn’t changed for decades and is unlikely to impact its business negatively. The United States are a liberal and cap- italist country, therefore, laws and regulations for fashion are not hard. Fashion is seen as a very lucrative business and designers who succeed are admired and become celeb- rities themselves. Politicians even give awards to designers and wear their designs for official ceremonies. Concerning Proenza Schouler, as they are only sold in the USA and Europe for now, the political environment is unlikely to impact their business negatively. Michelle Obama wearing Proenza Schouler Hillary Clinton presents O. De La Renta with the Founder’s Award at the 2013 CFDA Awards 2. Social and Cultural Environment In 2008, the financial crisis hit the USA and Europe pretty hard. Following this recession, a new fashion movement emerged, the ‘recessionistas’, as opposed to the ‘fashionis- tas’. -

FASHION FRUSTRATED: WHY THE INNOVATIVE DESIGN PROTECTION ACT IS A NECESSARY STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, BUT NOT QUITE ENOUGH INTRODUCTION In 2007, Proenza Schouler, headed by designers Jack McCullough and Lazaro Hernandez, released a capsule collection with Target through the store’s Go International Designer Collective.1 In 2011, Target re-released some of the items from the collection,2 an action that can certainly be attributed to the prior success of the collection itself, but also one that can be attributed to the explosive success Proenza Schouler has seen within the last several years.3 Much of this success is thanks to the PS1, a shoulder bag retailing for between $1,695 and $9,250 in its mid-range size4 that became the “It” bag of the fashion world immediately upon its release in 2008 and has yet to see any hint of a decline.5 However, in the same year, Target released a $34.99 messenger bag that looked alarmingly similar to the PS1—so similar, in fact, that it was brought to the attention of the PS1 designers, who were not very happy about it.6 Shirley Cook, CEO of Proenza Schouler, voiced their frustration by saying, “So our product is in Target right now, and then this bag comes out . -
