  • Allen Edmonds Reimagines Iconic Styles for Casual Moment
    NEWS RELEASE Allen Edmonds Reimagines Iconic Styles for Casual Moment 11/4/2020 The Evolution of the Great Dress Shoe ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Caleres (NYSE: CAL) brand Allen Edmonds has always had a loyal following for its iconic styles – the Park Avenue and the Strand. This fall, the brand has taken both and remixed to make them more suitable for everyday causal wear. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20201104005747/en/ Allen Edmonds, Strand Sneaker (Photo: Business Wire) “The Park Avenue has been Allen Edmonds best-selling shoe for over 40 years – in fact we’ve sold over a million pairs since it rst hit the market,” said Keith Duplain, senior vice president and general manager heritage brands. “Today our consumers are moving from dress to lifestyle looks – searching for athletic-inspired and hybrid-casual styles – so it made great sense to take both silhouettes into a sneaker cup sole design to match our customers’ needs in this moment.” The new sneakers launched in September 2020 and are positioned to capitalize on the tremendous opportunity in the active and casual space. These sneakers use the same high-quality leather upper as a standard Park Avenue and Strand designs. And the response has been overwhelmingly positive. “These two new styles have quickly become our best-selling casual sneakers, routinely outselling their dress counterparts online in recent weeks and are now on back order,” added Duplain. In this environment, it’s important that brands innovate to nd their own distinct casual identity while at the same 1 time staying true to their brand voice.

  • About Leather Types of Leather
    About Leather Types of Leather Leather is an ancient, durable material created through a process of tanning animal rawhide to preserve it and make it pliable when dry. Many features of natural leather make it superior to synthetic products including durability, comfort, beauty, suppleness, and resilience. Plus, leather’s ability to patina and absorb body oils continues to enhance the leather’s appearance and makes it more beautiful over time. Leather can broadly be divided into full grain, enhanced grain, corrected grain, top grain and split leathers. Full Grain Leather Full grain leather has no surface alterations. The hide’s natural pores and grain textures are intact and it will develop a patina over time. The tiny pinholes dotting the surface indicate the hide’s open hair follicles. The presence of these hair follicles demonstrates a high quality surface which has not been altered to conceal flaws. This full grain surface breathes. It keeps the user Full grain comfortable as it adjusts to body temperature. Full grain leather is the highest quality, most beautiful, and most comfortable leather available. Enhanced Grain Leather Enhanced grain leather is a full grain with an artificial grain embossed over the natural grain. Enhanced grain leather has the same comfort and breathability of a full grain, but the surface has received minor alteration to improve grain Enhanced grain appearance. Corrected Grain Leather Corrected grain leather is produced from the upper portion of the hide. The surface is lightly sanded or refined then embossed with an artificial grain texture. Corrected grain leathers have a more consistent appearance across the entire surface.

  • 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.

The new Honors Collection of golf shoes brings almost a century of classic, handcrafted style, unrivaled comfort and time-tested performance to the sport of golf. The shoes will be handcrafted in the USA, using Goodyear 360-degree welted construction for greater stability while maintaining flexibility. They feature the finest premium leathers and heated cork between the insole and outsole for custom-like orthotic comfort as only Allen Edmonds can do. “Built by hand using the traditional shoe craftsmanship methods, the Honors Collection is for the man who respects style and wants a performance golf shoe to match his game,” says Colin Hall, Chief Marketing Officer of Allen Edmonds. “Our shoes are remarkably different than the sports shoes most companies now offer. The Honors Collection represents a return to classic, elegant shoes that reflect a refined gentleman’s approach to golf.” “Allen Edmonds -- an American-based, leading men’s dress shoe maker -- is experiencing business resurgence, and our new Honors Collection golf shoes exemplify our dedication to outfitting American businessmen who enjoy golf and appreciate style and comfort,” says Hall.

  • 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.

  • Product Care Instructions
    PRODUCT CARE INSTRUCTIONS TEXTILES Care for textiles by vacuuming or lightly brushing. Rotate and flip cushions when vacuuming for even wear. Keeping textiles away from direct sunlight. The nap of high pile textiles (mohairs & velvets) may become crushed or lose its original pile height. We recommend light steaming to lift the pile to its original height. The textile should also be brushed with a de-linting brush to maintain its pile. Water based or solvent cleaner may cause discoloration or staining. We recommend that stained or soiled textiles be professionally cleaned. LEATHERS Leather is a soft porous material that is sometimes uncoated. It can easily absorb liquids and oily substances. Avoid saturating the leather with lotion or water. Care by dusting and lightly vacuuming. Keep leathers away from direct sunlight and heating vents. Leathers are a natural, “living” material that breathe and move as they wear. We recommend that stained or soiled leathers be professionally cleaned. VELLUM Vellum is a natural parchment produced from calfskin, lambskin, or kidskin. As it is a skin, there are naturally occurring variations in pattern, color, and texture, which may be noticeable in side by side panels. A clear coat of sealant is added to protect the vellum. Care for vellum by wiping gently with a damp to dry soft cloth, making sure that the skin is completely dried. Keeping vellum away from direct sunlight and heating vents. Vellum is a natural, “living” material and breathes and moves as it wears Vellum may also darken over time. We recommend that stained or soiled vellum be professionally cleaned.
