  • Blahnik Has His Own Unique Style, but He Is an Innovator Too
    Manolo Blahnik is one of only a handful of designers whose name is synonymous with their product. Indeed, for many, ‘Manolos’ are the holy grail of footwear. James Davenport follows in the footsteps of a master craftsman. foot fetish hat do Bianca Jagger, Sarah-Jessica Parker and Marge Simpson all have in common? The simple answer: Manolo Blahnik. From Bianca Jagger wearing a pair of Manolos for her winfamous entrance to Studio 54 to Blahnik addict Carrie Bradshaw in ‘Sex & the City’ to the sight of Marge Simpson sporting a pair of Manolo mules in an episode of ‘The Simpsons’, Manolo Blahnik’s creations have attained cult status and are genuine icons of contemporary culture. This achievement is all the more remarkable given that Blahnik, a demanding perfectionist of the old school, is solely responsible for the design and prototype of every shoe bearing his name. Working alone without assistants, he personally oversees the entire design process, from sketching the shoes to chiselling the wooden lasts on which they are moulded to sculpting the heels. Born in 1942 in Santa Cruz de la Palma in the Canary Islands, Manolo Blahnik was brought up on a banana plantation owned by his Czech father and Spanish mother and educated at home with his younger sister Evangelina. His parents hoped he would become a diplomat, but in 1965, after a couple of terms studying in Geneva, he left for Paris to study art, making ends meet by working at GO, a vintage clothes store on rue de Bonaparte. After a few years in Paris, he relocated to London, where he made a living working in boutiques and taking occasional design jobs.

  • How Trademark Law Helps to Create Fashion Innovation, 17 J. MARSHALL REV
    THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW LAW, BRANDS, AND INNOVATION: HOW TRADEMARK LAW HELPS TO CREATE FASHION INNOVATION DAYOUNG CHUNG ABSTRACT This Article explores the role of trademark law in the fashion industry. For years, the fashion industry has drawn legal scholars’ attention for its maintenance of creative endeavors within a legal environment that offers limited protection against design copying. Some influential legal studies argued that copying paradoxically helps the fashion industry as unregulated copying stimulates the creation of new designs. Yet, this Article observes that the driver for new design creation is already built into the contemporary fashion industry. The question should rather be directed at who creates fashion and how the role of the law, if any, aids the subject and mechanism of making fashion. This Article illuminates on the significant role that established fashion houses (so-called luxury companies or high-end designers) play in making fashion. This Article also suggests that these fashion houses require brands to make fashion. On this ground, this Article then demonstrates the capacity of trademark law to protect established fashion houses’ brands. The Article begins in Part One with an observation of the contemporary fashion industry and elaborating on the social mechanism of making fashion. It argues that the creation of design does not simply make fashion until it is adopted by majority of people. This Article uses the term “fashion innovation” to refer to adopted designs, distinguished from the created designs that some legal scholars called “innovation.” What trademark law helps is “fashion innovation,” that is, the law helps the adoption of new designs created by established fashion houses.

  • The Fashion Choices of Black Women of the Hip Hop Generation
    THE FASHION CHOICES OF BLACK WOMEN OF THE HIP HOP GENERATION IN THE ATLANTA METROPOLITAN AREA by SAMII LASHANTA KENNEDY BENSON (Under the Direction of Katalin Medvedev) ABSTRACT The underground musical form rap and the Hip Hop culture that developed around it surfaced on the inner city streets of New York in the 1970’s. Hip Hop fashion, also referred to as urban clothing or street wear, is the visual manifestation of hip hop culture. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of hip hop culture on the fashion choices of Black women in the Atlanta metropolitan area. Four focus group interview sessions were conducted with 27 middle-class African-American women ages 26-46. As members of the hip hop generation (those born between 1965-1984) they were expected to share a similar worldview. A thematic content analysis of data collected from each focus group session revealed several themes, such as considerable family influence and pronounced emphasis on personal adornment, that illustrate factors that influence the sartorial choices of middle class Black women in the Atlanta metropolitan area.
