Bonequinhas De Luxo: Um Olhar Sobre a Tirania E O Prazer Nas Revistas De Moda UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE MINAS GERAIS CARLA MARIA CAMARGOS MENDONÇA BONEQUINHAS DE LUXO: UM OLHAR SOBRE A TIRANIA E O PRAZER NAS REVISTAS DE MODA BELO HORIZONTE 2010 CARLA MARIA CAMARGOS MENDONÇA BONEQUINHAS DE LUXO: UM OLHAR SOBRE A TIRANIA E O PRAZER NAS REVISTAS DE MODA Trabalho apresentado ao Programa de Pós‐ Graduação em Comunicação Social da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais como requisito parcial para a obtenção do título de doutor em Comunicação Social. Orientador: Prof. Dr. Paulo Bernardo Vaz BELO HORIZONTE 2010 Resumo O objetivo desta tese é analisar de que forma a moda, por meio da mídia revista, enforma os corpos e subjetividades femininos. No entanto, discute‐se também um paradoxo instaurado na relação entre os periódicos impressos e fenômeno da moda: o prazer estético gerado por textos verbo‐visuais com pretensões de incitar o consumo. Dessa forma, entende‐se que há um movimento que tenta formatar as possíveis leitoras enquanto mulheres, naquilo que são e aparentam, mas ao mesmo tempo é entregue a elas objetos que primam por levá‐las a mundos de sonho e deixá‐las mergulhar em inúmeras possibilidades que em nada se assemelham à dureza do cotidiano. Para aprofundar nesse paradoxo, foi realizada uma pesquisa que buscou compreender a moda enquanto comunicação, suas relações com a estetização do corpo e do cotidiano e os usos que os sujeitos fazem de sua indumentária. Buscou‐se também compreender as dinâmicas de instauração do jornalismo feminino, do qual o de moda torna‐se sinônimo, para que fosse elucidada a emergência e importância das imagens na tarefa de tornar a moda pública e consolidá‐la tal qual a conhecemos. Os estudos contemporâneos sobre corpo e subjetividade foram cruciais para a análise dos textos verbo‐ visuais das revistas Vogue America e Brasil, objeto de estudo desta pesquisa. As publicações foram escolhidas por serem as mais importantes – em escala mundial e nacional, respectivamente – que tratam do tema. Palavras chave: moda, revista, corpo, subjetividade. Abstract The general mission of this investigation is to examine how fashion, through the media magazine, forms the female body and subjectivity. However, the discussion also brought a paradox in framed by the relationship between magazines and fashion phenomenon: the aesthetic pleasure generated by word-visual texts with pretensions to encourage consumption. Thus, it is understood that there is a movement that attempts to format the possible readers as women, what they are and appear, but at the same time is given to them objects that bring dream worlds and let them soak in many possibilities that have no resemblance to the hard life. To examine this paradox, we researched fashion as communication and its relations with the aesthetics of the body and daily life and how people wear their clothes. Also sought to understand the dynamics of the beginning of the female journalism, of which fashion journalism becomes synonym, to elucidate the emergence and importance of the images in making fashion public and consolidate it as we know it. Contemporary studies on the body and subjectivity were crucial for the analysis of verb-visual texts of Vogue America and Brazil, the object of this research. The publications were chosen because they are the most important - national and worldwide, respectively – on fashion. Keywords: fashion, magazine, body, subjectivity. Resumen El objetivo de esta tesis es examinar cómo la moda, a través de la revista, forma el cuerpo y la subjetividad femenina. Sin embargo, el debate también se trajo una paradoja en la relación entre las revistas impresas y el fenómeno de la moda: el placer estético generados de textos visuales con pretensiones de fomentar consumo. Por lo tanto, se entiende que hay un movimiento que intenta dar formato a los posibles lectores como mujeres, lo que son y parecen, pero al mismo tiempo que se da a los objetos que sobresalen en traerlos a soñar con mundos y dejarlos en remojo en muchas posibilidades que no tienen ninguna semejanza con la vida dura. Para examinar esta paradoja, se realizó una encuesta tuvo como objetivo comprender la moda como la comunicación, las relaciones con la estética del cuerpo y la vida cotidiana y los usos que los sujetos hacen de su ropa. También trató de comprender la dinámica de la iniciación del periodismo femenino, de la que la moda se convierte en un sinónimo, de que sea aclarado el surgimiento y la importancia de las imágenes en la toma de una manera pública y consolidarla como la conocemos. Los estudios contemporáneos sobre el cuerpo y la subjetividad son fundamentales para el análisis de textos visuales verbales de Vogue América y Brasil, el objeto de esta investigación. Las publicaciones fueron elegidos porque son los más importantes - nacional y mundial, respectivamente - que se ocupan de la cuestión. Palabras claves: moda, la revista, el cuerpo, la subjetividad.

  • Body in Fashion Films: the New Net-Aesthetic Era Simonetta Buffo, Università Cattolica Del Sacro Cuore Milano, Istituto Marangoni Milano [email protected]
    Studies in Communication Sciences 18.2 (2018), pp. 365–381 Body in fashion films: The new net-aesthetic era Simonetta Buffo, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Milano, Istituto Marangoni Milano [email protected] Abstract With “fashion film” we mean those online videos that are peculiar to fashion industry and are developing their own language and new types of brand narration. The field of study presented here to is related to lan- guage. The objective is indeed to better understand how this new communication tool has influenced the conventional language of fashion images through the development of new codes or a transformation of the existing ones. The object under examination is, in particular, the body as a preferred communication code within this industry. This body is not viewed by fashion as a simple object to dress, but rather as a mediating channel between the individual’s individuality and their need for communication, or better to say, their need to establish a relationship within its context. To do so, it seemed appropriate to start with the examination of the history of fashion images by concisely analysing how the body has changed its communicative role over the decades. Further analysis was then conducted in order to focus on the new meaning undertaken by the body in fashion films. As a consequence, the result is a complex and extremely rich picture. Keywords fashion film, fashion language, codes, fashion photography, fashion images 1 Body in fashion: codes therefore leads the individual to live his and languages own body with awareness and self-deter- mination, even more in modern times - Body as social product (Bourdieu, 1987) the individual is inspired by patterns com- is an important communication tool that ing often from images of the various media builds and conveys its own identity: the he is subjected to, so as to feel comfortable body mediates every relationship between in his own social relationships.

    COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE PIRELLI : PRÉSENTATION À VÉRONE DE “À LA RECHERCHE DE JULIETTE”, LE CALENDRIER 2020 DE PAOLO ROVERSI Avec un court métrage d'art, Paolo Roversi recherche l’âme de Juliette. Vérone, le 3 décembre 2019 — “À la recherche de Juliette”, le Calendrier Pirelli 2020 réalisé par Paolo Roversi, a été présenté aujourd’hui au Théâtre Philarmonique de Vérone. En s’inspirant du drame intemporel de Shakespeare, Paolo Roversi part à la recherche de « la Juliette qui sommeille en toutes les femmes” dans la 47ème édition de The Cal™, avec en protagonistes Claire Foy, Mia Goth, Chris Lee, Indya Moore, Rosalía, Stella Roversi, Yara Shahidi, Kristen Stewart et Emma Watson. Pour la première fois, le Calendrier combine la photographie et le cinéma avec un court-métrage de 18 minutes. Paolo Roversi interprète dans le court-métrage son propre rôle de réalisateur faisant passer une série d’auditions aux candidats pour le rôle Juliette, qui passent une à une devant la lentille du directeur pour interpréter une “Juliette” multifacette grâce à une large gamme d’expressions et d’émotions. L’histoire se déroule en deux phases. Dans la première, les actrices apparaissent à leur arrivée sur le plateau, sans maquillage ni costume. Elles s’asseyent et parlent avec Paolo Roversi du projet pour lequel chacune espère être sélectionnée, racontant leur propre expérience ainsi que l’idée qu’elles se font de Juliette. Les actrices laissent ainsi transparaître un côté intimiste et personnel. Dans la seconde phase, elles revêtent des costumes créés pour les transformer en interprètes de l’héroïne shakespearienne.
