In the time frame of ten weeks, we have gained great knowledge about the luxury industry in general and luxury brands operating in China, in particular. Additionally, we have acquired a deeper understanding on how to conduct an academic research. We would like to thank our tutor Harald Dolles who has been of great help with assistance and guidance along the construction of our thesis. School of Business, Economics and Law, June 2011 ____________________________ ______________________________ Jessica Wan Xi-Er Dang 2 Abstract Since the economic reform of China in 1978, the country has been under a process of industrialization and modernization. The average household income has risen, where the proportion of middle-class households, earning more than RMB 3 500 per month, has increased. In addition, there is a great share of the „China elite‟, which consists of the upper middle-class and the very wealthy. Due to China‟s enormous market of 1.3 billion people and the growth of wealthier households, the country has become the largest market for luxury. Many luxury brands are established in the market today, some with a greater presence, others more limited.

    HOUSE OF LORDS SESSION 2005–06 [2006] UKHL 37 on appeal from [2005] EWCA Civ 1080 OPINIONS OF THE LORDS OF APPEAL FOR JUDGMENT IN THE CAUSE Bradford & Bingley plc (Appellants) v. Rashid (FC) (Respondent) Appellate Committee Lord Hoffmann Lord Hope of Craighead Lord Walker of Gestingthorpe Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood Lord Mance Counsel Appellants: Respondents: Justin Fenwick QC Christopher Nugee QC Nicole Sandells William Hanbury (Instructed by Addleshaw Goddard) (Instructed by Williscroft & Co) Hearing date: 24 May 2006 ON WEDNESDAY 12 JULY 2006 HOUSE OF LORDS OPINIONS OF THE LORDS OF APPEAL FOR JUDGMENT IN THE CAUSE Bradford & Bingley plc (Appellants) v. Rashid (FC) (Respondent) [2006] UKHL 37 LORD HOFFMANN My Lords, 1. The chief question is whether a letter containing an acknowledgement of a debt for the purposes of section 29(5) of the Limitation Act 1980 is inadmissible on the ground that the letter formed part of a negotiation with a view to the creditor giving the debtor time to pay or accepting a lesser amount. In common with all of your Lordships, I consider that the letter was admissible. But there is some difference of opinion over the reasons and I must therefore state my own. There is also a subsidiary question as to whether the letters contained acknowledgements within the meaning of the Act. They are set out in the speech to be delivered by my noble and learned friend Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood and I agree with him and my noble and learned friend Lord Hope of Craighead that references in the letter of 26 September 2001 to an “outstanding balance” and in the letter of 4 October 2001 to an “outstanding amount” are plain acknowledgements of the existence of a debt.

  • Luxury Lithics | Decorative Stone on Bond Street
    Urban Geology in London No. 16 Luxury Lithics | Decorative Stone on Bond Street Ruth Siddall Old Bond Street was first laid out in the mid 1680s by a group of property developers and goldsmiths including Sir Thomas Bond, for whom the street is named. New Bond Street was completed after 1700. It is now the home of jewellers, fashion houses and fine art galleries. Luxury global brands aim to create a high-end shopping experience, with bespoke detailing applied to the materials used in the construction of the interiors and often exteriors of the building as well as to the merchandise. Architects and designers are employed to set a style across global branches of these stores. Thus brands often adopt a livery of often lavish décor which may include the use of specific stones in stores across Europe and the Globe. Thus the same stones may be used in, say, Mulberry stores in London, Paris and New York. Stones are chosen for their appearance and unique character. Indeed this guide has turned into a bit of an epic, with almost 40 different stones identified, representing the igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic categories and coming from the British Isles and continental Europe as well as from further afield localities including Canada and Brazil. They range in age from 2 billion year old Bushveld gabbros to 50,000 year old travertines from Rome. From Piccadilly, Old Bond Street and then New Bond Street run NNE in a straight line from Piccadilly to Oxford Street. For both Old and New Bond Streets, street numbering runs sequentially up the east side of the road and then down the west side of the roads.

    The Journal of Dress History Volume 4, Issue 3, Autumn 2020 Front Cover Image: Detail, Tuskegee Airman Edward Gleed, Photographed by Toni Frissell, March 1945, Ramitelli, Italy, © Prints and Photographs Division, The Library of Congress, Washington, DC, United States, LC–F9–02–4503–330–07. Edward Gleed (1916–1990) was photographed by Toni Frissell (1907–1988), an American photographer, known for her fashion photography and war imagery. In this 1945 photograph, Gleed is wearing his uniform and equipment of a Second World War fighter pilot, posing in front of a P–51D Mustang airplane. During the Second World War, Gleed was educated at Tuskegee University (formerly Tuskegee Institute), located near Tuskegee, Alabama; hence, the moniker Tuskegee Airmen, who were the first African–American military aviators and aircrew in the United States Army Air Forces.
