  • Enhancing the In-Store Experience
    Enhancing the in-store experience for female customers of Tommy Hilfiger Achieving more together Foreword The ‘Anton Dreesmann Leerstoel voor Retailmarketing’ Foundation - supported by a group of leading retailers in the Netherlands - has chosen Rabobank as its partner to host and co-organise its annual congress. The partnership started in 2011 and we have prolonged this successful collaboration until at least 2020. We appreciate the opportunity to share our knowledge and views on retail with key players and other stakeholders in the sector. The January 2017 congress, ‘Retailing Beyond Borders – Working on Transition’ took place in the Duisenberg Auditorium in Utrecht. During this congress the ‘Rabobank Anton Dreesmann Thesis Award´ was granted to Samira Darkaoui for her thesis entitled ‘Enhancing the in-store experience for female customers of Tommy Hilfiger´. Part of this award is the publication of the thesis as a book. The result of which is now in front of you. Capturing and embedding knowledge is important, both for Rabobank as a knowledge-driven financial organisation and for retailers. We therefore support the initiatives of the Foundation to combine scholarly knowledge with retail practice. The ´Rabobank Anton Dreesmann Thesis Award´ is one of these initiatives. The thesis of Samira Darkaoui, who graduated from the Delft University of Technology, discusses an actual and interesting case at Tommy Hilfiger, the well-known fashion player. The problem for Tommy Hilfiger is the lack of connection that women have with the brand. In order to address this issue, a systematic approach is followed. A wide number of topics is taken into account including brand identity, store interior and (female) consumer behaviour in order to understand the complete shopping experience.

  • The Shape of Women: Corsets, Crinolines & Bustles
    The Shape of Women: Corsets, Crinolines & Bustles – c. 1790-1900 1790-1809 – Neoclassicism In the late 18th century, the latest fashions were influenced by the Rococo and Neo-classical tastes of the French royal courts. Elaborate striped silk gowns gave way to plain white ones made from printed cotton, calico or muslin. The dresses were typically high-waisted (empire line) narrow tubular shifts, unboned and unfitted, but their minimalist style and tight silhouette would have made them extremely unforgiving! Underneath these dresses, the wearer would have worn a cotton shift, under-slip and half-stays (similar to a corset) stiffened with strips of whalebone to support the bust, but it would have been impossible for them to have worn the multiple layers of foundation garments that they had done previously. (Left) Fashion plate showing the neoclassical style of dresses popular in the late 18th century (Right) a similar style ball- gown in the museum’s collections, reputedly worn at the Duchess of Richmond’s ball (1815) There was public outcry about these “naked fashions,” but by modern standards, the quantity of underclothes worn was far from alarming. What was so shocking to the Regency sense of prudery was the novelty of a dress made of such transparent material as to allow a “liberal revelation of the human shape” compared to what had gone before, when the aim had been to conceal the figure. Women adopted split-leg drawers, which had previously been the preserve of men, and subsequently pantalettes (pantaloons), where the lower section of the leg was intended to be seen, which was deemed even more shocking! On a practical note, wearing a short sleeved thin muslin shift dress in the cold British climate would have been far from ideal, which gave way to a growing trend for wearing stoles, capes and pelisses to provide additional warmth.

  • Top 50 Sponsors
    TOP 50 SPONSORS Fifty top-performing apparel firms are working feverishly to innovate with product, win the hearts of the consumer, balance their footprint, and bring home the profits. Read on for a curated examination of what’s happening inside the walls of the prestigious 2016 Apparel Top 50. #1 Michael Kors The global lifestyle brand makes its debut on the Top 50 this year, after issuing an IPO in 2012. (The company files under leather and leather goods, which Apparel did not previously consider. Had it done so, MK would have debuted at No. 6 in 2013, hit the No. 1 spot in 2014 and held steady there through this year. Also, at press time, MK had filed for its most recent fiscal year, and while its earnings and profit- ability are down, it still churned out a whopping 17.78 profitability). The brand, which produces a range of products under Michael Kors Collection, MICHAEL Michael Kors and Michael Kors Mens, including accessories, footwear, watches, jewelry, ready-to-wear and a full line of fragrance products, operates stores either directly or through licensing partners, in 95 countries around the world, and also has a large wholesale business. MK has expanded so rapidly in the past few years that many have judged it overexposed. Whether true or not, that rapid growth combined with decreases in mall traffic, heavy promotional activity and other chal- lenges at retail have recently spurred the company to cut back on the number of products it sells to wholesalers, as well as to retailers that sell many other brands, so as to better control its pricing, protect the Michael Kors brand image — and increase demand for full-price product.

  • BHC-MSS 0021 Guide to the Records of Warner Corset Company by Meghan Rinn October 2018
    BHC-MSS 0021 Guide to the Records of Warner Corset Company By Meghan Rinn October 2018 Descriptive Summary Creator: Warner Corset Company Title: Records of Warner Corset Company Dates: 1866-1975 [Bulk 1900-1960s] Quantity: 192 boxes, 20 films, unknown number of ledgers Abstract: One of the biggest manufacturers in Bridgeport, the Warner Corset Company (later Warnaco) was a major part of Bridgeport’s industrial history. Starting with Dr. Warner’s Health Corsets, the company expanded and expanding, manufacturing corsets and then bras and other underclothing. While the company still exists, the collection documents the early history of the company into the 1970s through family papers, corporate documents, daily operations, garment construction, and advertising. Collection Number: BHC-MSS 0021 Language: English Repository: Bridgeport History Center NOTE: Access to this collection may be restricted due to processing. Administrative History The history of the Warner Corset Company is lengthy, and the company still exists today in the form of Warnaco. Founded by Lucian and Ira DeVer Warner in 1874, the company was a reaction to the health issues that the two siblings, who were also doctors, saw in their female patients due to corset wear. They developed a more flexible corset, with the boning material coming from a Mexican plant called ixtle. The fibers, once treated, became material called Coraline which allowed greater freedom of movement and lightened the pressure put upon the wearer’s body versus other boning material. Called Dr. Warner’s Health Corset, the business took off immediately, with the brothers moving manufacture from McGraw, New York, to Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1876.

    Did you know that the world’s first bra dates to the fifteenth century? Or that wearing a nineteenth-century cage crinoline was like having a giant birdcage strapped around your waist? Did you know that women during WWI donated the steel stays from their corsets to build battleships? For most of human history, the garments women wore under their clothes were hidden. The earliest underwear provided warmth and protection. But eventually, women’s undergarments became complex structures designed to shape their bodies to fit the fashion ideals of the time. When wide hips were in style, they wore wicker panniers under their skirts. When narrow waists were popular, women laced into corsets that cinched their ribs and took their breath away. In the modern era, undergarments are out in the open. From the designer corsets Madonna wore on stage to Beyoncé’s pregnancy announcement on Instagram, lingerie is part of everyday wear, high fashion, fine art, and innovative technological advances. This feminist exploration of women’s underwear— with a nod to codpieces, tighty- whities, and boxer shorts along the way—reveals the intimate role lingerie plays in defining women’s bodies, sexuality, gender identity, and body image. It is a story of control and restraint but also female empowerment and self- expression. You will never look at underwear the same way again. REINFORCED BINDING AMBER J.

    PVH Underwear Powerhouse: post-merger integration of business operations of Calvin Klein Underwear and Tommy Hilfiger Underwear brands Student: Stanislav Pozdeev Thesis Supervisor: Anton Sugonyako Second Reader: Koen van der Kooy PVH Europe B.V. Stadhouderskade 4 1054ES Amsterdam PREFACE The PVH Underwear Powerhouse bachelor thesis assignment has become the final phase of my International Business and Management Studies degree program in Rotterdam Business School department of Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences and International Business Administration program in Institute of Business Studies-Moscow department of Russian Presidential Academy. The relevance of this research to IBMS/BBA degree competences can not be underestimated, as it has been carried out in one of the largest global corporations in retail and fashion industries on highly professional level. The learning opportunities and ability to apply knowledge of various fields of management acquired while studying has been an amazing experience for me as a graduate student. Apart from being an academic requirement of my bachelor degree, The PVH Underwear Powerhouse research has been an essential part of my Sales Internship at Calvin Klein Underwear division of PVH Corp. European Headquarters. This project is seen as a significant strategic step for both Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger Underwear divisions since the acquisition of Warnaco Group was completed. As a matter of fact, my primary focus within job responsibilities from the very beginning has been on sales analytics and business performance of these departments, as well as forecasting and strategic planning. Consequently, these activities and the results have been implemented into the PVH Underwear Powerhouse thesis research and a great link between my placement and thesis experiences.

  • The Cultural History of the Corset and Gendered Body in Social and Literary Landscapes
    ISSN 2411-9598 (Print) European Journal of September-December 2017 ISSN 2411-4103 (Online) Language and Literature Studies Volume 3 Issue 3 The Cultural History of the Corset and Gendered Body in Social and Literary Landscapes Melis Mulazimoglu Erkal Ege University, Turkey Abstract This study centers on the significance, uses and changes of the corset in the Western culture and literature through a study of body politics, culture and fashion. The emplacement of corsetry in the West as an undergarment goes back to 1600s. Research shows that the study of corsetry is important as the corset has been a permanent, pervasive, popular object preferred mostly by women from different classes, sometimes by men and even children since the Middle Ages. Moreover, it is important to notice how the corset has gone beyond its use value and has become first a symbol of rank and elegance, then of female oppression and victimization and finally a symbol of sexual empowerment and feminine rebellion in contemporary time. Popular critics of the field state that the corset today is far beyond its earlier restrictive usages and negative meanings as the garment today has become a favored item in fashion industry and preferred by celebrity icons all around the world. The corset at present is an outerwear, art object and ideological construct. So, what makes the corset so popular and everlasting? The study on corsetry yields to a critique of Western culture from socio-political perspective as well as through body politics and gender studies. In that respect, this work aims to explore how corsetry in past and contemporary time exists as an essential part of patriarchal ideology, influencing social and literary landscapes and borrowing from the beauty aesthetics, thus creating the idealized feminine of each century.
