  • Gisele Bundchen, Center, Celebrates at the End of the Show from the Colcci Summer Collection at Sao Paulo Fashion Week in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Wednesday, April 15, 2015
    Lifestyle FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 2015 Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen, center, celebrates at the end of the show from the Colcci Summer collection at Sao Paulo Fashion Week in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Wednesday, April 15, 2015. Bundchen, the Brazilian supermodel who has lit up catwalks around the world for 20 years, is retiring from the runway. — AP photos SUPERMODEL GISELE BUNDCHEN MAKES TEARY LAST CATWALK TURN here were tears, hugs, and a standing ovation as supermodel Gisele Bundchen strode the Tcatwalk one last time on her home turf in Brazil on Wednesday. Bundchen, the world’s top- earning model, made her final sashay down the runway at Sao Paulo Fashion Week (SPFW), the same event where she made her debut 20 years ago. She opened and closed the show for Brazilian label Colcci, bringing full circle a runway career that launched her to stardom. In the first row were fami- ly and friends she invited including her parents and American football star husband Tom Brady. Bundchen, 34, appeared calm and smiled. The whole show took about 20 minutes. But when a crowd of men and women models strode out in jeans and white T-shirts with her image on them, she stayed composed for a bit before bursting into tears. Bundchen hugged friends and waved to well- wishers. The Brazilian bombshell announced last month she was retiring from runway modeling, saying she wanted to spend more time with husband New England Patriots quarterback Brady, and their two children, Benjamin and Vivian. She also told Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo: “My body she’s at the height of her powers.

  • Kate Moss Or the Girl Next Door? — the Effectiveness of Cosmetics Advertising
    Journal of Advertising Research Vol. 52, No. 1, 2012 www.journalofadvertisingresearch.com Take Your Pick: Kate Moss or the Girl Next Door? — The Effectiveness of Cosmetics Advertising Michael Antioco EMLYON Business School Dirk Smeesters Rotterdam School of Management Aline Le Boedec Finaref INTRODUCTION Marketing literature is replete with evidence of the positive effects of using attractive communicators and models on opinion change, product evaluation, and brand perception and recall (Baker and Churchill, 1977; Joseph, 1982). It has been demonstrated that physically attractive communicators are more liked than plain or unattractive communicators. By extension, if a person has a positive attitude toward a communicator, she or he will evaluate that communicator’s message in positive terms (Joseph, 1982). The use of attractive communicators to increase advertising effectiveness seems to be appropriate. It appears, however, that many marketers have decided to apply this idea at its extreme. Often, models in advertising represent highly idealized images of physical attractiveness. This is especially true when considering the models’ body-mass index given increasing obesity in Western societies (Chandon and Wansink, 2007). In a March 2010 issue, the Guardian asked, “Why Are Models Still So Thin?” Some runway models presenting Riccardo Tisci, Dolce & Gabbana—and others representing Prada’s Miu Miu autumn/winter ready-to-wear collection—looked skeletal. Yet, models are a mirror for many young women and, most agree, should project an image of beauty and health rather than offer the perception of encouraging eating disorders. Moreover, it recently seems that not all marketers have agreed that such idealized images of physical attractiveness are the best way to increase advertising effectiveness.

  • NYC Fashion Giants Featured in Exhibit Curated by Two Israelis | the Times of Israel
    9/18/2019 NYC fashion giants featured in exhibit curated by two Israelis | The Times of Israel RUNWAY STORY NYC fashion giants featured in exhibit curated by two Israelis ‘New York Fashion Rediscovered’ spotlights treasure trove of photographs of designers and supermodels discovered on a New York City sidewalk By JESSICA STEINBERG Today, 3:55 pm Fashion models and their muses at 'New York Fashion Rediscovered,' a new exhibit created by two Israelis in New York City's Time Square, just in time for 2019 Fashion Week (Courtesy ZAZ10TS) It took two Israelis in New York City — one gallery owner and one curator — to put together an exhibit of historic fashion photographs that had been discovered on a city sidewalk. The exhibit, “New York Fashion Rediscovered 1982-1997,” opened September 5, at 10 Times Square, coinciding with New York Fashion Week. The exhibit brings to life a vivid period in the New York City fashion industry, when designers began creating high- end day and evening wear, as well as power dressing for women in the workforce. Fashion designers and supermodels achieved celebrity status, and the celebrated moments of the runway shows were their finales, when designers would walk down the runway, arm-in-arm with the leading supermodels of the day. Those joyous moments are what was preserved in the fashion-loving photographs of the collection. The fashion stars featured in the photographs included designers Anna Sui, Donna Karan, Liz Claiborne, Ralph Lauren, Marc Jacobs, Perry Ellis, Isaac Mizrahi, Alber Elbaz, Anne Klein, Geoffrey Beene, Rebecca Moses, BCBG Max Azria, Linda Allard for Ellen Tracy, Adrienne Vittadini, and Gemma Kahng, and models Kate Moss, Cindy Crawford, https://www.timesofisrael.com/nyc-fashion-giants-featured-in-historic-exhibit-curated-by-two-israelis/ 1/3 9/18/2019 NYC fashion giants featured in exhibit curated by two Israelis | The Times of Israel Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Helena Christensen, and Kristen McMenamy.

    the palace of veRsailles presents the 18th century back in fashion guide to the exhibition and the grand trianon 8 july – 9 OCTOBer organised with the Grand trianon floor plan the 18th century back in fashion couturiers and fashion designers at the grand trianon The Grand Trianon and the Musée Galliera, the fashion museum of the City of Paris, present in a poetic confrontation costumes from the 18th century and masterpieces of haute couture and fashion design from the 20th and 21st centuries. The 18th century with its floating dresses, its voluminous skirts, flounces and furbelows, its silhouettes of minor marquis in three-piece suits and its immense hairstyles have never ceased to inspire the world of haute couture. The Enlightenment, the age of French Europe according to the famous saying, continues to fascinate. The political and cultural prestige of France was at its highest, when wit, lightness and elegance metamorphosed into a veritable art of fine living. Since 1800, the fashion world has continued to refer back to the 18th century for both women’s and men’s clothing as well as for its textiles and accessories. Like mirrors reflecting each other, the garments exhibited, from haute couture to ready-to-wear, propose Self-guided architecture tour a modern reading of that extravagant century. Each designer adapts the period to his/her sensibility. Some a self-guided architectural tour takes you through the grand quote the 18th century shapes almost literally, while trianon’s most notable places at the same time as the "18th century others deconstruct them, expand their dimensions and back in fashion" exhibition.

Moss earns as much as $15 million a year from lucrative deals with companies including Burberry, Chanel and Christian Dior. She is now the subject of hundreds of columns in British tabloids. They have become obsessed with her and her. Reporters are writing pages and pages of stories about Moss’s drug use and sex life. The latest story is that police will investigate claims that she took cocaine. Moss, 31, has already been fired by fashion giants H&M, Chanel and Burberry. H&M’s decision reversed an earlier statement from the company that forgave Moss and gave her a second chance. However, she was axed following hundreds of phone calls from angry customers and a lot of negative publicity. The company could not allow a drug user to model its clothes. Shoppers were furious that as a mother, Moss decided to use hard drugs.

Project objectives (eg, what is the question you want to answer? What do you want to learn how to do? What do you want to find out?): When carrying out my project one of the main questions I will be looking into is, what the difference between high street brands and designer brands is. I will be looking into the background information of Vera Wang, Versace, Topshop, River Island and two different fashion magazines. One of the questions I will be looking to answer is, how designers influence high street brands using the catwalk. I will also be looking to find out how designers cope with the pressure of having to keep on top of high street brands, and how they cope with the imitations that they find in most high street stores. I will be finding out key facts about two designer brands and two high street stores. I also want to find out how magazines use celebrity endorsement to advertise fashion products, and high street stores. If it is a group project, what will your responsibilities be? I will be taking on all responsibility of my project. I will be conducting all research, primary and secondary, and I will be writing up my own findings.

  • Fashion's Autumn/Winter 2014 Ad Campaigns | Financial Times
    04/01/2020, 10:22 Page 1 of 1 Luxury goods Add to myFT Fashion’s autumn/winter 2014 ad campaigns A deconstruction of the industry’s ads for the season reveals a sombre economic mood Share Save David Hayes AUGUST 8 2014 Hemlines may once have been a cute way of monitoring the state of the economy – rather aptly, they are all over the place these days – but nothing gives a snapshot of global hard-currency health better than a flick through the September issues of the world’s glossiest fashion magazines. Landing on newsstands with a reassuringly weighty thud early this month, the current edition of US Vogue has more advertising than any other American fashion or lifestyle magazine, with a whopping 631 ad pages. Yet it is still down 4.5 per cent on last year’s Lady Gaga extravaganza of 665 pages – which in turn was down on the magazine’s peak of 727 pages of ads in 2007. The luxury sector may not have turned an economic corner – yet. And in fashion terms the mood is not exactly upbeat, either: think brown and black set against brutalist concrete architecture (Prada); corseted women hanging around in a drab hotel suite (Dior); and models trapped in a surrealist crazy golf course from hell, wearing equally disturbing knitwear (Kenzo). Yes, advertising matters, not only as a barometer of the spending trends of the fashion world, but also as a tone-setting exercise. The following images are how fashion should look this autumn/winter, straight from the designer’s eye, so take note.
