1. Frédéric Godart, Sociologie De La Mode (Paris: La Décou- Verte, 2010) NOTES PREFACE 1. Frédéric Godart, Sociologie de la mode (Paris: La Décou- verte, 2010). The book has also been translated into Portuguese (Brazil): Frédéric Godart, Sociologia da moda (São Paulo: Editora Senac São Paulo, 2010). A Spanish (Argentina) translation is under way. 2. I am closely associated with the INSEAD MBA students’ “Retail, Consumer and Luxury Club” which provides me with countless opportunities to observe and interact with key actors of the fashion and luxury industries. 3. Frédéric Godart, “Status and Style in Creative Indus- tries: The Case of the Fashion System” (Columbia University, 2009). For my PhD thesis, as well as for follow-up work, I conducted more than 30 interviews and gathered countless data on the fashion and luxury industries. I did not explicitly use them for this book as I wanted to keep it short, but they certainly influenced my thinking. INTRODUCTION 1. Dazed and Confused is the name of a famous Brit- ish style magazine: http://www.dazeddigital.com/ [Accessed September 19, 2011]. 2. Catherine Maliszewski, “ Azzedine Alaïa, mutin de la mode,” Le Monde Magazine, July 2, 2011. The interview is in French and was translated by myself 148 NOTES into English, like all the texts used in this book for which I could not find a readily available English translation. 3. And more precisely, the focus of the documentary is on four fashion houses: Sonia Rykiel, Proenza Schouler, Fendi, and Jean-Paul Gaultier. 4. Among all the journalistic accounts of the worlds of fashion and luxury published over the last ten years, two are particularly enjoyable and informative: Mark Tungate, Fashion Brands: Branding Style from Armani to Zara (London: KoganPage, 2005); Dana Thomas, Deluxe: How Luxury Lost its Luster (London: Penguin Books, 2007). 5.

Here it should be noted that “non-cumulative” does not mean that fashion is not enriched by time… Each decade and each century adds new styles that can be used and mixed with other styles by fashion designers. However, while in science and technology the idea of progress is prevalent (today’s cars perform better than yesterday’s cars), it is not true in fashion. Is 2011 better than the fashion from the 1960s? Probably not, but it is probably not worse either, just different. 18. Karl Popper The Logic of Scientifi c Discovery.

The exact boundaries of the fashion and luxury indus- tries can be debated. For example, a part of the hospi- tality industry (US$2,517 billion) or the personal care industry (US$827 billion) could be added to the luxury industry. 26.

Wernisaż wystawy w czwartek, 26 kwietnia. Część wystawy poświęcona jest kreacjom spod znaku domu mody Dior , fot. Radosław Żydowicz / UMŁ Polska premiera ponad 300 eksponatów zaprojektowanych przez znanych na całym świecie projektantów mody odbędzie się 26 kwietnia o godz. 18. Jednak już dziś w łódzkim muzeum zaprezentowano osiem sylwetek z wystawy "Christian Dior i ikony paryskiej mody z kolekcji Adama Leja". Były oryginalne stroje, kapelusze, torebka z latarką oraz perfumy z 1947 roku w słynnym flakonie przypominającym amforę. - Dlaczego akurat osiem manekinów? Otóż Christian Dior uwielbiał symbolikę i "8" jest taką jego szczęśliwą liczbą. Ósemka jest nieskończonością oraz przypomina sylwetkę kobiecą i do niej też nawiązuje styl "New Look"oraz prezentowane perfumy Miss Dior - podkreślał właściciel kolekcji Adam Leja, dzięki któremu Centralne Muzeum Włókiennictwa w Łodzi ma niezwykłą okazję przypomnieć dokonania Christiana Diora, a także powojennych paryskich mistrzów haute couture. Wystawa składa się z dwóch części. Pierwsza ma być poświęcona wyłącznie kreacjom spod znaku domu mody Dior. Prezentowane będą oryginalne stroje, ale także uzupełniające je akcesoria - kapelusze, buty, jak również biżuteria. Będzie to swoista podróż przez całą historię tego domu mody, ukazująca, jak interpretował on w swoich strojach tendencje pojawiające się w nieustannie zmieniającej się rzeczywistości kolejnych dziesięcioleci. Ciekawostką będzie oryginalny autograf Christiana Diora i pierwsze perfumy oraz projekty Diora.

Eicher, Regents’ Professor, University of Minnesota Books in this provocative series seek to articulate the connections between culture and dress which is defined here in its broadest possible sense as any modification or supplement to the body. Interdisciplinary in approach, the series highlights the dialogue between identity and dress, cosmetics, coiffure, and body alterations as manifested in practices as varied as plastic surgery, tattooing, and ritual scarification. The series aims, in particular, to analyze the meaning of dress in relation to popular culture and gender issues and will include works grounded in anthropology, sociology, history, art history, literature, and folklore.

    10 Celebrity sells ‘Our customers appreciate the association with stardom.’ In 1975, Giorgio Armani sold his Volkswagen. The money went into a pool of US$10,000 that Armani and his partner Sergio Galleoti had got together to open their Milanese fashion house. Having left medical school to enter the fashion business in 1957, Armani had worked as a buyer for the department store La Rinascente. But it was as a designer at Cerruti, which he joined in the early 1960s, that he learned the techniques that were to make his career. The charismatic Nino Cerruti was a master of marketing: he once convinced Lancia to paint a fleet of cars in the same shade as his new range of suits, and then enlisted the curvaceous actress Anita Ekberg to break a bottle of champagne over one of them for the cameras. The effectiveness of such publicity coups was not lost on Armani, who would use relationships with celebrities as the cornerstone of his marketing strategy. Armani’s clothes alone were impressive enough – although the casual deconstructed look of his suits is familiar today, it was revolutionary at the time – but it took a movie star to transfer the designs from the fashion press to the public eye. The star was Richard Gere, and the vehicle was a film called American Gigolo (1980). Designers had been dressing stars for years – Hubert de Givenchy was famous for outfitting Audrey 122 Fashion Brands Hepburn – but this was arguably the first time a set of clothes had played such a prominent role in a film, almost becoming an extension of the main character.
