  • FALL / WINTER 2017/2018 2017. Is It Fall and Winter?
    THE FASHION GROUP FOUNDATION PRESENTS FALL / WINTER 2017/2018 TREND OVERVIEW BY MARYLOU LUTHER N E W Y O R K • LONDON • MILAN • PARIS DOLCE & GABBANA 2017. Is it Fall and Winter? Now and Next? Or a fluid season of see it/buy it and see it/wait for it? The key word is fluid, as in… Gender Fluid. As more women lead the same business lives as men, the more the clothes for those shared needs become less sex-specific. Raf Simons of Calvin Klein and Anna Sui showed men and women in identical outfits. For the first time, significant numbers of male models shared the runways with female models. Some designers showed menswear separately from women’s wear but sequentially at the same site. Transgender Fluid. Marc Jacobs and Proenza Schouler hired transgender models. Transsexuals also modeled in London, Milan and Paris. On the runways, diversity is the meme of the season. Model selections are more inclusive—not only gender fluid, but also age fluid, race fluid, size fluid, religion fluid. And Location Fluid. Philipp Plein leaves Milan for New York. Rodarte’s Kate and Laura Mulleavy leave New York for Paris. Tommy Hilfiger, Rebecca Minkoff and Rachel Comey leave New York for Los Angeles. Tom Ford returns to New York from London and Los Angeles. Given all this fluidity, you could say: This is Fashion’s Watershed Moment. The moment of Woman as Warrior—armed and ready for the battlefield. Woman in Control of Her Body—to reveal, as in the peekaboobs by Anthony Vaccarello for Yves Saint Laurent.

  • Fashionpedia: Ontology, Segmentation, and an Attribute Localization Dataset
    Fashionpedia: Ontology, Segmentation, and an Attribute Localization Dataset Menglin Jia?1, Mengyun Shi?1;4, Mikhail Sirotenko?3, Yin Cui?3, Claire Cardie1, Bharath Hariharan1, Hartwig Adam3, Serge Belongie1;2 1Cornell University 2Cornell Tech 3Google Research 4Hearst Magazines Abstract. In this work we explore the task of instance segmentation with attribute localization, which unifies instance segmentation (detect and segment each object instance) and fine-grained visual attribute cat- egorization (recognize one or multiple attributes). The proposed task requires both localizing an object and describing its properties. To illus- trate the various aspects of this task, we focus on the domain of fashion and introduce Fashionpedia as a step toward mapping out the visual aspects of the fashion world. Fashionpedia consists of two parts: (1) an ontology built by fashion experts containing 27 main apparel categories, 19 apparel parts, 294 fine-grained attributes and their relationships; (2) a dataset with everyday and celebrity event fashion images annotated with segmentation masks and their associated per-mask fine-grained at- tributes, built upon the Fashionpedia ontology. In order to solve this challenging task, we propose a novel Attribute-Mask R-CNN model to jointly perform instance segmentation and localized attribute recogni- tion, and provide a novel evaluation metric for the task. Fashionpedia is available at: https://fashionpedia.github.io/home/. Keywords: Dataset, Ontology, Instance Segmentation, Fine-Grained, Attribute, Fashion 1 Introduction Recent progress in the field of computer vision has advanced machines' ability to recognize and understand our visual world, showing significant impacts in arXiv:2004.12276v2 [cs.CV] 18 Jul 2020 fields including autonomous driving [52], product recognition [32,14], etc.

We can find that time wherever we want it. Like when we leave our workplace in the evening, and when we close the door we also leave behind us what’s necessary in life: that’s time for the spirit. IIIIII “Time transforms nd if we go home tower, get a bit closer to the stars, things, on foot, we might and feel the beauty of the time that in just raise our eyes that enchanted place we’ll dedicate to just as skywards. Of course, the spirit and its mysterious meaning, this is more likely spending hours regenerating and in dreams” to happen if we’re reflecting in solitude. Time transforms lucky enough to live in the countryside, things, just as in dreams, and there is no whereA everything is gentler, calmer, apparent reason to it. How beautiful are more peaceful, more profound. And then all those things that can be understood we’ll see the twinkling lights of the stars, without needing to be explained by and it will seem as if we understood reason! When we take time for the the silent language of the celestial spirit, we see new, profound things, vault. We will read in it the mystery of and old things from a new perspective: time for spirit and that of the universal where once we felt sorrow, we now infinite.

  • All I Want for Christmas Is the Perfect Pair of Pjs
    Style Etc. AFTER HOURS All I Want for Christmas is the Perfect Pair of PJs ith the holidays approaching, many women are making up their wish lists, noting the beautiful shearling coat they’d spotted in a store, or the Man Ray they’d wanted since Photography 101. They’re dreaming of exotic trips, diamond earrings, Hermès bags, Wand rare pieces of Chanel haute couture. As for me, I’m dreaming of the perfect pair of pajamas. I want to look good when someone takes my picture beneath the Christmas tree. This particular quirk is a throwback to a different time, when the photos in my childhood album showed me in a variety of nightgowns that called to mind “Granny” Claudette Colbert, in Little Red Riding Hood. The one exception was wearing Clark the Carmen Miranda number decorated with Gable’s pajamas in It Happened One Night. tropical fruit. While this might have been margin- ally acceptable if we’d lived in Florida, we were from Massachusetts. There was snow on the ground that year. mother chalked it up to the “angle of the wind,” which made no sense, “Smile!” my mother said as my father snapped a picture of me with but the feet were especially helpful when traversing the icy floor. my lips puckered. In high school, I saw It Happened One Night, Frank Capra’s 1934 “Is this from Santa?” I asked, worried that I might not be able to screwball comedy, starring Claudette Colbert as a spoiled heiress and return it. I was relieved to see “Love, Mummy” on the gift tag.
