Fashion

All the best of the Parisian catwalks and a look behind the scenes at the big names in Haute Couture. Every Friday at 10.20 am Paris time.

Rank #1: In the 21st century, fashion will be dystopian and sexy.
In the 21st century, designers no longer tell princess stories. Instead, they fall into dystopia. For his Winter 2019 Ready-to-wear collection, Manish Arora honours Mad Max, while Rick Owens reveals people of the desert; Tuomas Merikoski (Aalto) shows off a "modest" wardrobe, while Thom Browne pays tribute to Lady Troubridge, a feminist sculptor and lesbian. For Masha Ma and Vivienne Westwood, fashion today has the power to change our worldview. Isabel Marant proves it, in a rather sexy way!

Rank #2: Haute Couture, winter 2019/2020: Digital innovation no substitute for couture workshops.
To celebrate its 10th anniversary, French fashion house Julien Fournié is unveiling its sponsors, Apple and Dassault Systems. But that's not to suggest for a moment that the digital world can supplant the extraordinary work of the couture workshops, producing unique piece after unique piece. Alexandre Vauthier takes a similar view. As for Jean Paul Gaultier, he's breaking with the past, and choosing to stay away from fur. But then again, the only constant with Gaultier is change.

Engaging with customers, asking questions, user-generated content that aligns with the message one is trying to achieve How big brands are doing it right, such as a lot of big brands are building innovation teams and incubators and accelerators Launching Uber (Black) in Sweden, and how they didn’t have focus on brand Brand plus performance marketing, user acquisition, easy to get traffic Early days for tech companies are all about hyper growth at expense of brand, Facebook vs. Instagram The early stage of Uber, looking at how the unfair advantage was private driver experience, built early adopters via first ride for free, and then later focusing on it being the same price as a taxi The number of collaborations with Away Luggage, choosing a direction with brand partnerships, especially with physical products, by leveraging more established brands Looking at how brands can benefit from Rivera’s toolkit, giving back to brand on a personal note offering intros to help solve problems, and how this has created friends in fashion industry as a result Strategies on starting a meeting with a specific result in mind, getting curious about high- level thoughts on things the other parties are doing Adding tech to help with storytelling and amplifying presence with Rag and Bone at a very integral moment Fashion Week: most people really excited are not invited, wanting to change that led to providing access to the Rag and Bone show to anyone without being an insider, with the goal being impressions and being a part of the conversation Understanding overall brand impressions and sentiment are important, tools understanding sarcasm, People need to engage with brands when they want, on the channel they want. When a startup feels traction, what kinds of systems to put in place for performance marketing to make decisions in a fluid way How a brand can look at quantifying customer interactions How in-store environment is shaping ecommerce, how both ends drive each other, and a validation point is to not underestimate how emotionally driven consumers are with something looking like a real store Micro vs. macro influencers, and where relationships fit into marketing, and deeper connections with female founders And how most desired clients are Millennial-centric direct to consumer brands

Rank #2: Michael Kors.
“When I was in junior high school I used to sit and doodle all day in class, and one of the things that I doodled was, in fact, the logo—the MK logo—that we have now, so at 14, I kind of think I knew what I was getting into,” says Michael Kors in the latest installment of the Vogue podcast. The legendary all-American designer sat down with André Leon Talley to talk about the phenomenon that is the MK logo bag and the transformative power of accessorizing, particularly when it’s equal parts polished and practical. Case in point: The new ultra-chic Michael Kors smartwatch out this September. “It actually helps your life function,” explains Kors. “But at the same time, it gives you that punctuation point that I think people expect and want when they put on a great accessory.” While Kors’s timepiece will help its wearers stay on schedule in style, the designer’s upcoming fragrance, Wonderlust, is meant to lend an air of spontaneity. “It’s all about this idea that you’re still optimistic, you’re still energized...
