Grantz) (Do Not Delete) 12/5/2011 11:35 PM Note Fashioning a New Look in Intellectual Property: Sui Generis Protection for the Innovative Designer Linna T. Loangkote* Fashion design is weaving its way through the fabric of American society by transforming how people think about fashion apparel. The $350 billion fashion industry not only puts the clothes on our backs, but gives individuals an outlet for individual expression as well. More and more, the fashion design process is recognized as a creative process where vision, raw materials, and skill meet to produce fashion apparel that should be worthy of sui generis protection. Current intellectual property regimes fail to adequately equip designers with legal remedies to guard against design piracy, and this affects both innovation and competition. Moreover, even though the U.S is a signatory to the Berne Convention, the U.S.’s lack of a protection scheme for fashion design is out of step with other signatory members, namely the European Union, and this mismatch could invite unintended reciprocity problems for American designers abroad.

Cette proposition séduit Jane et la première rencontre a lieu en 1999 lors du Festival d’Avignon. Ainsi, avec Djamel Benyelles au violon, Fred Maggi au piano et Aziz Boularoug aux percussions, Jane Birkin nous entraîne dans ces rythmes orientaux, arabisants, qui donnent une seconde vie à ces grands succès de la chanson française. Le succès est tel que d’autres concerts suivent, toujours autour d’événements exceptionnels. Reims en 2000, Alger, Annaba en 2001 et Paris en 2002 ; chaque concert étant l’occasion de revisiter les titres et d’en ajouter de nouveau : Amours des feintes, Fuir le bonheur, Les Clefs du paradis et bien d’autres.

Je désirais le faire, et c’était écrit pour moi. Je savais que je le ferais bien parce que c’était une partie de moi qui n’avait jamais été montrée ; j’adorais ce petit personnage de Johnny Jane.

Brooklyn Dorado Museum, , Brooklyn Studio 54: Night Magic, the First Exhibition to Explore the Trailblazing Aesthetics and Continuing Impact of New York City’s Legendary Nightclub, on View through November 8 Highlighting the revolutionary creativity, expressive freedom, and sexual liberation celebrated at the world-renowned nightclub, the exhibition will present over 650 objects ranging from fashion, photography, drawings, and film to stage sets and music Following the Vietnam War, and amid the nationwide Civil Rights Movement and fights for LGBTQ+ and women’s rights, a nearly bankrupted New York City hungered for social and creative transformation as well as a sense of joyous celebration after years of protest and upheaval. Low rents attracted a diverse group of artists, fashion designers, writers, and musicians to the city, fostering cultural change and the invention of new art forms, including musical genres such as punk, hip-hop, and disco. In a rare societal shift, people from different sexual, sociopolitical, and financial strata intermingled freely in the after-hours nightclubs of New York City. No place exemplified this more than Studio 54. Though it was open for only three years—from April 26, 1977, to February 2, 1980—Studio 54 was arguably the most iconic nightclub to emerge in the twentieth century. Set in a former opera house in Midtown Manhattan, with the stage innovatively re-envisioned as a dance floor, Studio 54 became a space of sexual, gender, and creative liberation, where every patron could feel like a star.
