  • 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.

  • Vogue Italia Di Settembre: Le 100 Copertine
    Leggi l'articolo su beautynews Vogue Italia di settembre: le 100 copertine Con il numero di settembre, come di consueto il più importante dell'anno, Vogue Italia presenta ai lettori un progetto unico e speciale: un numero da collezione con cento personaggi per cento copertine: modelle famose e attrici, artisti e persone della strada - tutte speciali, con la loro storia unica da raccontare. Vogue manda in edicola così ancora una volta un'edizione da collezione, in cui le copertine numerate diventano un’opera d’arte e un manifesto della moda per tutti, all’insegna della diversità. «Lo scorso aprile, quando abbiamo scelto di lasciare bianca la nostra copertina, eravamo convinti che il silenzio fosse un giusto messaggio di rispetto e pudore», scrive nel suo editoriale Emanuele Farneti, direttore di Vogue Italia. «Adesso invece, all’inizio di una nuova stagione per molti versi decisiva, pensiamo sia il momento di parlare ad alta voce di bellezza e di speranza. Per la prima volta abbiamo scattato, e stampato, cento cover. Ciascuna di loro è dedicata a una protagonista diversa: per età, aspetto fisico, colore della pelle. È il ritratto di una comunità che, pur nel giusto rispetto delle restrizioni di distanze e tempi imposte dal contesto, dopo aver diligentemente atteso ora si ritrova e ricomincia». Ci sono supermodel iconiche: Cindy Crawford, Pat Cleveland, Patti Hansen, Donna Jordan. Le top del momento: Kaia Gerber, Bella Hadid, Julia Nobis, Freja Beha Erichsen, Sasha Pivovarova, Irina Shayk, Alek Wek, Raquel Zimmermann, Saskia De Brauw, Rebecca Longendyke. Instagram star come Emily Ratajkowski e Paloma Elsesser.

  • L'uomo Spostato a Settembre?
    EDITORIALE L’UOMO SPOSTATO A SETTEMBRE? MEGLIO PER SCELTA CHE PER OBBLIGO di David Pambianco anca ancora la prova, ma gli indizi cominciano a essere importanti. E il colpe- vole si nasconde elegantemente dietro all’acronimo co-ed, la sigla che indica Mle scuole britanniche con classi miste maschietti e fanciulle. Nella moda, è diventato l’identificativo della sfilata unificata “uomo-donna’, una tendenza che due anni fa è arrivata come un ciclone sul sistema delle passerelle mondiali, e ha imposto, in un tempo estremamente rapido, un ripensamento dell’intera catena di produzione e proposizione del prodotto. Alla base del cambiamento c’è l’azzeramento dei tempi e degli spazi imposto da inter- net e social network, con la conseguenza che tutte le iniziative, e in particolar modo gli eventi, diventano “consumer”. In sostanza, ogni show diventa “lo” show del brand, ed è irrilevante la tipologia di prodotto presentata (uomo, donna o bambino). Questa seg- mentazione, che aveva senso soprattutto per il trade, perde progressivamente significato. Tutto ciò ha comportato una situazione di evidente difficoltà per le manifestazioni dedi- cate alla moda maschile. I dati degli eventi estivi sull’asse Firenze-Milano sono piuttosto emblematici. Pitti Immagine Uomo ha registrato un tangibile calo. Discorso simile per l’edizione di metà giugno di White. I numeri della fiera milanese riflettono ciò che è stata la relativa Milano Fashion Week, per la quale le defezioni e i rimandi (a settembre, quando le passerelle si accoppieranno con la donna) si sono concretizzati in un calenda- rio in versione long week end. Alla luce di questi numeri, è stato facile interpretare le parole di Raffaello Napoleone, AD di Pitti Immagine, quando, in un evento a metà giugno, ha espresso ad alta voce la ri- flessione sulla necessità di un “aggiornamento” dello scacchiere degli eventi.

    Corso di Laurea magistrale in Interpretariato e Traduzione Editoriale, Settoriale Tesi di Laurea Il Fashion System Cinese Dal “Made in China” al “Designed in China” Relatore Prof.ssa Federica Passi Correlatore Prof. Attilio Andreini Laureando Alessia Baldini Matricola 828244 Anno Accademico 2014/2015 2 摘要 写本论文的目的是为了描述和介绍时尚界奢侈品今天在中国的重要性。 论文的第一部分会简洁的介绍一下中国的时装史，以及中国开始跟欧洲的时尚界合作情况， 在这部分里我们会注意到在这个话题上中国比欧洲实在是落后了许多。 在这一章里我们也会详细描述中国对时尚本身的概念错误，中国还需要很长时间拥有标志性 的服装的构思和技术。 我们将分析从‘90 年代到今天奢侈品界在中国都有了些什么样的变化。 在这一部分里我们还会将中国的奢侈品消费者的类型进行描绘，而在报告中也可以察觉到在 近 20 年消费者的要求也逐渐改变了。 许多比较富裕的中国人都喜欢每年来欧洲购物，所以我们的奢侈品专卖店能以最佳的方式来 迎接这些贵宾是非常重要的。 本文还会针对近几年中国与欧洲时尚界的关系的话题进行了讨论: 首先是分析欧洲的大奢侈 品牌从‘90 年代起是使用了什么策略逐步进入中国市场的，接下来就是讲解第一批华人设计 师是如何能在欧洲各大城市的时尚周期间展示他们的作品的，尤其是在米兰和巴黎这两个大 城市。 论文中将会有一个章节专门介绍这些新兴的华人设计师的故事，描述他们是如何来欧洲深造 学设计的，还有他们的共同愿望，也就是把中国从一个生产国家 (Made in China) 变成一个 新的创造国家 (Designed in China). 如今，在中国许多西方时尚品牌已经开始注意到国内市场的消费量已经逐渐的下降，原因就 是同一个货品在种种的关税后，在国内的价格比欧洲的原价已经要高出很多了。 我们将会分析各大品牌为了推动国内的消费而实行调整全球价格的市场策略。 第一部分的最后一章是讲述广告在中国市场的地位，特别是近几年世界著名的时尚杂志在国 内销售的重要性，尤其是 Vogue 杂志。 本论文的第二部分将会把八篇从 Vogue China 杂志上面挑选出来关于时尚的文章翻译成意 大利文。 3 每篇文章的主题都不一样。翻译这些文章让我更了解了如今的时尚界是完全的国际化了，因 为它拥有着一个共通的语言: 不论我们是用哪国的语言写的讯息，时尚界里用的词汇还是一 样的。 最后，第三部分是专门评论翻译员的感想还有描述她在翻译这几篇文章中遇到的困难以及她 是如何走出这些困境的。 4 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to analyise the fashion and luxury industry in China today. The first section of the study provides a brief summary of the history of fashion in China from the last imperial dynasty, the Qing, to the present day.
