In a rather conventional sense, great performing is often associated with a sense of interiority, becoming your character, identifying with your role. In that sense, a great performer could become anyone else simply by looking deep within herself. Of course, there’s a long history of performance practices that reject this model. Yet whether it is a matter of embracing or rejecting what is, so to speak, on the inside, there is an overarching belief that great performers are uniquely adept at locating themselves and using that self to build a world around them. It is no surprise then that today we are all expected to be great performers. Our lives are filled the endless capacity to shed one skin for another, to produce multiple cyber-personalities on a whim. We are hyperaware that our outsides are malleable and performative—and that our insides might be an endless resource for reinventing and rethinking ourselves (not to mention the world around us). So perhaps it’s almost too obvious to say that Jibz When I was a youth, say, about 8, I played a game in the Cameron, the mastermind behind Dynasty Handbag, is an incredible woods with my friend Ocean where we pretended to be hookers.

  • 'Perfect Fit': Industrial Strategies, Textual Negotiations and Celebrity
    ‘Perfect Fit’: Industrial Strategies, Textual Negotiations and Celebrity Culture in Fashion Television Helen Warner Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) University of East Anglia School of Film and Television Studies Submitted July 2010 ©This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author's prior, written consent. Helen Warner P a g e | 2 ABSTRACT According to the head of the American Costume Designers‟ Guild, Deborah Nadoolman Landis, fashion is emphatically „not costume‟. However, if this is the case, how do we approach costume in a television show like Sex and the City (1998-2004), which we know (via press articles and various other extra-textual materials) to be comprised of designer clothes? Once onscreen, are the clothes in Sex and the City to be interpreted as „costume‟, rather than „fashion‟? To be sure, it is important to tease out precise definitions of key terms, but to position fashion as the antithesis of costume is reductive. Landis‟ claim is based on the assumption that the purpose of costume is to tell a story. She thereby neglects to acknowledge that the audience may read certain costumes as fashion - which exists in a framework of discourses that can be located beyond the text. This is particularly relevant with regard to contemporary US television which, according to press reports, has witnessed an emergence of „fashion programming‟ - fictional programming with a narrative focus on fashion.

  • Creating Images for Hollywood Classics Vicki James Yiannias
    Creating Images for Hollywood Classics Vicki James Yiannias From the time of silent films, the images of American cinema have reflected the environment of their time. The sounds, sites, costumes, makeup, and movements on the screen reinforce the norms of the era, but also give a taste of social changes in their early phases. Most popular attention has been focused on actors, who when influential are labeled stars, even if their talent is limited. More recently some directors also have become “bankable” as stars of their own kind. Still under-appreciated by most filmgoers are the critical behind-the scenes roles by others in the filmmaking team. Greeks who have carved some legendary spaces in their respective specialties are not widely celebrated, even by the Greek American public. Six such individuals are Jack Pierce, make-up and special effects artist; Hermes Pan, choreographer; Dean Tavoularis, production designer; and Theoni Aldredge, Patricia Field, and Mary Zophres, three extraordinary costumer designers. From Frankenstein to Mister Ed Special effects and makeup genius Jack Pierce (1889-1968) is one of the great innovators in Hollywood history. His masterly conceived monsters and creatures created for Hollywood horror classics such as Frankenstein (1931), Dracula 1931), The Mummy (1932), and Wolf Man (1941) are still terrifying, and their influence on popular culture, continues on a grand scale. Yiannis Peter Piccoulas (1889-1968) was born in Porto Cheli, Ermionida, in the Peloponnese. His father was a shepherd (likely to have been originally from the village of Valtestsi).1 In 1902, when he was just thirteen, Piccoulas left his family to come to America in search of a better life.

  • U by Kotex and Fashion Visionary Patricia Field Empower Girls to Revolutionize the Feminine Care Category
    U by Kotex and Fashion Visionary Patricia Field Empower Girls to Revolutionize the Feminine Care Category New Product Look and Design Contest Rally Young Women to Ban the Bland Look of Feminine Care DALLAS (April 7, 2011) - Young women have design choices to express themselves in all aspects of their lives from fashion to the color of their cell phone, so why do they still have to settle for the boring and institutional look of feminine care? U by Kotex, a bold feminine care line from Kimberly-Clark Corporation, has partnered with fashion visionary Patricia Field to give young women the opportunity to take a stand against the bland look of feminine care and inspire the category's future. Jumpstarting female creativity, the line is also now introducing color and design variety on pads and liners for the first time ever, bringing even more style to the U by Kotex line. "At this point in my career, I am thrilled to have the chance to speak with young women and bring design to the bland feminine care category through this partnership with U by Kotex," said Patricia Field, an Academy Award-nominated, two-time Emmy Award-winning stylist whose fashion career spans 45 years and who is best known for her TV and film work, including Sex and the City, Ugly Betty and The Devil Wears Prada. "I'm looking forward to seeing the creativity come to life in the design contest and final products." Together, U by Kotex and Patricia are inviting young women to share their inspirations through an online design contest.

    Fans await 'Sex and the City' fashion buffet -- baltimoresun.com Page 1 of 3 www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/custom/today/bal-to.sex28may28,0,6567741.story baltimoresun.com Fans await 'Sex and the City' fashion buffet By Jill Rosen Sun reporter May 28, 2008 The sex in Sex and the City? It's clothes porn. It's lusty shopping. It's erotic materialism. It's bags, baubles and stilettos that dangle and shine as enticingly as any aphrodisiac. In the movie that opens Friday, they're not trying to hide it. Consider the money moment in the trailer: "Should we get you a diamond?" Mr. Big asks Carrie, who after longing for Big since the show made its debut in 1998, is finally at the threshold of the marriage she dreamed of. "No," she replies. "Just get me a really big closet." In Sex and the City, love comes and goes, but shoes are forever. For fans, it's been a long four years since the HBO series ended and they're looking forward to the movie -- specifically the Manhattan chic outfits on Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda -- as they would an iced cosmopolitan on a hot night. New Line Cinema is reportedly calling the movie "the Super Bowl for women." In other words, it's all about the commercials, except instead of plugs for Budweiser and Viagra, there'll be vodka and a prescription for some serious retail therapy. Amen, says Lisa Brown, who blogs from Randallstown as the "Ghetto Fashionista." "I'm a huge fan and I would say it's probably 90 percent about the clothes," says the 36-year-old recruiter for Microsoft.
