HOUSE: A COMBAT FOR COUTURE COMMAND OF LUXURY LABELS Carly Elizabeth Souther* ABSTRACT As an industry that thrives on-rather than succumbs to- adversity, the couture corporate world demands innovation and encourages risks. When combined with successful marketing and savvy business practices, these risks can result in large payoffs, which exist, primarily, due to the nature of the global fashion market.' Endless consumption drives the market, rewarding fashion houses that cater to current trends with top-line growth and damning those whom fail to suffer decreased net earnings. In order to remain a viable player in the fashion industry, the house must have the resources to market and manufacture the product in a timely manner, as well as incur the costs if a collection is poorly received.

Velvet and Patronage: The Origin and Historical Background of Ottoman and Italian Velvets Dr. Sumiyo Okumura Velvets are one of the most luxurious textile materials and were frequently used in furnishings and costumes in the Middle East, Europe and Asia in the fifteenth to sixteenth centuries. Owing to many valuable studies on Ottoman and Italian velvets as well as Chinese and Byzantine velvets, we have learned the techniques and designs of velvet weaves, and how they were consumed. However, it is not well-known where and when velvets were started to be woven. The study will shed light on this question and focus on the origin, the historical background and development of velvet weaving, examining historical sources together with material evidence.

  • One Speaks Softly, Like in a Sacred Place’: Collecting, Studying and Exhibiting Congolese Artefacts As African Art in Belgium
    ‘One speaks softly, like in a sacred place’: collecting, studying and exhibiting Congolese artefacts as African art in Belgium Maarten Couttenier Many publications have dated the European ‘discovery’ of ‘primitive art’ in the beginning of the twentieth century or even after the 1914–18 war. Overall, they argue that African objects, collected between the fifteenth and the eighteenth century, ended up as curiosities in European ‘Cabinets of Wonders’. During an ethnographic phase in the nineteenth century, travellers and museum staff were believed to be mostly interested in the functional aspects of these objects, as they ‘failed to see the beauty; curiosity was great, but is was mixed with pity.’1 Finally, these publications state that the true art value of these objects was discovered during an aesthetic phase in the beginning of the twentieth century by artists such as Henri Matisse, André Derain, Georges Braque, and Pablo Picasso.2 Despite the fact that Africans were of course the first to appreciate the beauty of their own objects (something that was not always recognized in the West), the Western interest in African art was supposedly linked to the need among European artists for ‘new sources of inspiration outside the continent to rejuvenate its old civilisation. Disgusted by the modern world, its steel machines and its pitiless brutality, the period after the 1914–1918 war turned passionately towards the primitive, and especially the “Negro” ’.3 The widely publicised exhibition ‘Primitivism’ in the 20th Century Art: Affinity of the Tribal and the Modern in the Museum of Modern Art in New York (1984–85), and the introduction by William Rubin in the catalogue, confirmed this ‘modernist myth’.4 ‘Primitivism’ or ‘the interest of modern artists in tribal art and culture, as 1 J.

    H-Germanistik CFP: GSA 2020: Panel: Fashion & Self-Fashioning: Exploring Karl Lagerfeld’s Hybrid Genius, Washington, D. C. (12.02.2020) Discussion published by Marie Müller on Tuesday, February 4, 2020 Karl Lagerfeld (1933-2019), aka “Kaiser Karl,” was a major creative force to be reckoned with: as a successful fashion designer, a prolific photographer, a voracious reader, and a world famous celebrity, he reigned unchallenged over the world of fashion for more than fifty years. Admired for his visionary flair, respected for his work ethics, feared for his biting witticism, and mocked for his vanity and arrogance, Lagerfeld was a true pop culture icon, whose unmistakable signature look were the high collar, the ponytail, and the sunglasses. While designing up to 17 collections a year for multiple fashion houses (Chanel, Fendi, Chloé, Karl Lagerfeld) for 54 years, his greatest creation though was himself: like Coco Chanel before him, he spent his life refashioning his biography. By appearing to the world as a marionette and a caricature of his own design, Lagerfeld captured the zeitgeist and embraced post-modernity better than anyone. He invented a public persona, which he carefully curated through stories about his social origins or his castrating Prussian mother, and astutely cultivated through wits, aphorisms aka “Karlisms,” and caricatures aka “Karlicatures.” For example, in his numerous magazine interviews and TV appearances, the media-savvy designer, who captivated with his wit and erudition, often caused controversies with his insensitive remarks on women’s body (British singer Adele’s corpulence) and offensive comments on German politics (German chancellor Angela Merkel’s immigration politics).
