  • 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.

  • UK FASHION LOVERS MORE INTERESTED in NATIONAL CHOCOLATE WEEK THAN LONDON FASHION WEEK Submitted By: 10 Yetis PR and Marketing Tuesday, 16 September 2008
    UK FASHION LOVERS MORE INTERESTED IN NATIONAL CHOCOLATE WEEK THAN LONDON FASHION WEEK Submitted by: 10 Yetis PR and Marketing Tuesday, 16 September 2008 London Fashion Week may have already started with a huge fanfare but a leading celebrity fashion website has discovered that its own UK users are more interested in National Chocolate Week than they are the fashion event taking place in the Capital City. A leading celebrity fashion website has discovered that females aged between 18 and 30 are more interested in the UK’s National Chocolate Week than they are in this year’s London Fashion Week. Just below 3,700 people took part in the survey for MyCelebrityFashion which asked its fashion conscious users to select which UK “Week” they were interested in the most. National Chocolate Week received 62% of the vote, National Condom Week received 17% of votes and London Fashion Week got just 11% of votes. The rest of the votes were split between the National Chip, Curry and Vegetarian Week’s. 41% of people asked said the reason they were not interested was because of the high cost of the clothes on show and 36% said that they felt the ranges being shown were not relevant to every day fashion. Most worryingly for the future of the British fashion, 22% felt that it was only an event that the ultra-rich could now attend. Speaking about the results www.MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk Head Fashionista Jill Tovey said, “Whilst we at MyCelebrityFashion have been gearing up for London Fashion Week for some time, we thought it odd that not one of our thousands of users had mentioned it or were discussing it with our fashion conscious community”.
