All Rights Reserved. Share-Forward Garb Fashion's close relationship with social media integrates into apparel Implications - The fashion world has shifted drastically since the emergence of social media. Much of the shift relies on (and is accommodating to) the requirement for clothing to be share-friendly on visual platforms like Instagram. This idea of shareable clothing is being taken further with garments integrating share-friendly features directly into clothing. The development of share-forward garb speaks to shifting priorities among the luxury consumer. iPhone-Accommodating Couture Exaggerated Contemporary Fashion Shows Statement Dresses Maison Margiela’s 2018 Runway Boasts iPhone The Viktor & Rolf Spring 2019 Became a Viral Holsters Sensation Footwear Customization Campaigns Digital-Only Fashion Capsules Sergio Rossi's WeChat Campaign Lets People Carlings' Digital Fashion Collection Boasts a Futuristic Outlook Design Their Own Shoes SCORE POPULARITY PATTERNS MEGATRENDS 4 FEATURED, 35 EXAMPLES ACTIVITY 8.9 100,209 Total Clicks Copyright ©.

CONSUMER INSIGHT #2 - WORKSHOP QUESTION Livestreamed Fashion The fashion industry incorporates livestreamed content into its campaigns Implications - In an attempt to counter the exclusivity that high fashion is typically associated with, brands within this industry are increasingly giving consumers "windows" into their world via livestreaming. These campaigns have a dual-benefit in that they give the average consumer the perception of inclusion, while allowing brands in the fashion industry to become more outwardly "accessible" without having to alter their business models.

CONSUMER INSIGHT #4 - WORKSHOP QUESTION Style Cafe The worlds of fashion and food merge into same-store experiences Implications - Fashion brands are incorporating cafes into their spaces, or creating co-spaces from scratch in which both clothing and food can be purchased and enjoyed. These retail spaces offer the benefit of an experiential purchase journey in which consumers are able to slow down and better appreciate the products being offered — benefitting the brand by enhancing the likelihood of purchase.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

PAGE 10 ODD COUPLE Uniqlo, Dover Street Link Tokyo Flagships By AMANDA KAISER and KELLY WETHERILLE TOKYO — Rei, meet Tadashi. WWD In what might be seen as an odd fashion pairing, Rei Kawakubo’s Dover Street Market has opened a FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 2012 Q WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY Q $3.00 store here that connects to the largest Uniqlo flagship to date. Both stores held opening parties Thursday be- fore opening to the public today. Tadashi Yanai’s Fast Retailing Co. Ltd. considers the 12-story, 53,000-square-foot store in the shopping district of Ginza to be its eighth “global flagship,” joining the ranks of its two stores in New York as well as those in London; Paris; Shanghai; Osaka, Japan; Seoul, and Taipei, Taiwan. “When we opened the store on New York’s Fifth Avenue, I thought that we had realized the American dream. In Japan’s Ginza it’s the same thing — I think it’s a symbol of the Japanese dream,” Yanai, chair- man, president and chief executive officer of Fast Retailing, said at a press conference. “Being able to open our newest and largest global flagship store in Ginza…is really the most exciting thing [possible].” The executive said the store is aiming for annual sales of 10 billion yen, or $119.94 million, which he admits is an ambitious target. The Uniqlo and Dover Street stores are two of the more ambitious retail openings in Tokyo as of late.

    The 20 Year Trend Cycle: What Is Next? - FIB | FIB 10/03/2016 11:06 The 20 Year Trend Cycle: What Is Next? If you live long enough, you will probably see the fashion trends of your youth cycling back into popularity. Analysts are trying to get to the bottom of this mystery, by looking at the recurring trends throughout fashion history. The most cyclical movement in the history of the fashion industry is referred to as the “20-Year Rule.” This rule expresses the concept that something popular now will be popular again in 20 years, give or take a few years. Although new trends are always emerging, they are often modernisations or interpretations of the trends we have already seen. 90s Men’s Grunge Fashion, Photo Credit: swipelife.com/Michael Lavine According to Laver’s Law, when a trend is in fashion, it is ‘smart’; one year before this, it is ‘daring;’ and 20 years later, it becomes ‘ridiculous.’ 50 years, Laver said, was how long it took for a trend to begin to creep back into style. About Style have outlined the process of trend popularity, with fashion designers always on the look out for ‘what’s new’. First, the emerging trend is highly sought after, being found on red carpets and runways, as well as music videos and movies. Next comes the ‘emulation’ phase, where everyone jumps on board, with the trend https://fashionindustrybroadcast.com/2016/03/09/20-year-trend-cycle-next/ Page 1 of 4 The 20 Year Trend Cycle: What Is Next? - FIB | FIB 10/03/2016 11:06 being found in magazines and on TV.

I aim to create a set which features 7 rooms visable at The aim of this project is to produce designs for a live horror inspired theatre production. In order to do achieve this I will look at inspiration all times allowing the action of the play to shift quickly between from surrealist movement and the key trends from the 1920s, 1990s and modern day. I have chosen to research these eras as they allow me to scenes with minimal disruption. The location in focus will be demonstrate the clashing time frames in which the action takes place throughout the play. I feel that many of the themes within the surrealist indicated by harsh lighting whilst unused rooms are unlit leav- movement also lend themselves to the characteristics of each individual character bringing depth to their performances and drawing out the ing only shadowy figures moving subtly. The constant move- most important aspects of their role within the narrative. Using a select colour palette also allows me to elevate these themes and offer a fresh ment throughout the set will reflect the busy atmosphere of the interpretation to the original concept.

    Do you know grunge? Debora Ferrara Design for the fashion system Politecnico di Milano x index what is grunge history of grunge generation X Kurt Cobain the king of fashion fashion trends xdo you know what are you wearing? rather be dead than cool rath be dead than cool rather be dead than cool rather be deadwhat thanis grunge? cool rather be dead than cool rather be dead than cool rather be dead than cool rath be dead than cool sound- garden nirvana alice in Grunge is a word that became synonymous with the Seattle sound. It’s a word that was used to describe a number chains of different “alternative” bands from the region in 1980s, and then also into the 1990s with bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Mudhoney and Screaming Trees. The first noted instance of referring to a Seattle band as “grunge,” was in a 1981 letter by Mark Arm, according to Clark Humphrey in his account of the Seattle music scene, Loser. pearl jam Bruce Pavitt later claimed to have popularized the term as a musical label in 1987, when he wrote some promotional copy for Green River, describing the band as “ultra-loose grunge that destroyed the morals of a generation”. In the late 80s, “grunge” did actually define a sound – high levels of distortion, feedback, fuzz effects, a fusion of punk and metal influences. Many of these bands were on either the C/Z or Sub Pop record labels. Jack Endino, the so-called “Godfather of Grunge” recorded Soundgarden, Mudhoney, Green River, Nirvana and Blood Circus between 1984 and 1989.
