Both of these two products reflect the cultural and traditional values, symbols and meanings in the life of an Indian woman. It is traditionally worn by their ancestors from 5,000 years ago. A designer saree is known as a long female garment, which comes with a size of “six to nine yards in length,” an unstitched cloth that draped in a set design. Indian women wear saree with a matching blouse that covers the upper portion of the body and wears a color matching petticoat that ties on the wrist which enables to hold the pleats. Each designer saree has a design theme that conveys a unique story. Meanwhile, the churidar suits come with a set of three pieces of material which is “kameez, salwar, and dupatta.” A long dress that covers the upper portion of the body is known as kameez that covers until the knee, a salwar tapers at the ankle that comes as a loose or tight pants that wore tightly at the wrist. A dupatta is a long stylish ornament worn on the shoulders or to cover the head while visiting the elders or the temple.

For this essay I chose two of the most influential fashion photographers of this century : Guy Bourdin and Terry Richardson. To my mind, these photographers represent the spirit of past and present of brave fashion photography. Although their works spans decades apart, there are still links between their styles.

Herrera’s designs embody the true meaning of a classically feminine design. Her collections on display give you great insight into the many different fashion trends over the years which can

The fashion industry is rapidly growing and constantly generating new fashion trends almost weekly. Fashion for some may seem ridiculous and unnecessary; but fashion is not just a meaningless usage of article of clothing or farcical materials sew together for coverage. There is more to fashion than meets the eyes, fashion is precious and significant. It is a reflection of self-image, it speak the ream about who we are and how we review ourselves. Not only is fashion the reflection of self-image but also the reflection of our history as Coco Channel have said, “Fashion is not something that exist in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” Fashion

As a fashion obsessor, I love to read about different designers and learn things I never knew about or discover a new designer i’ve never heard of. Recently I’ve discovered Paolo Sebastian, an Australian designer who learned how to sew from his grandmother when he was very young. His designs grab fashion lovers’ attention at first glance. His attention to detail is magnificent and each collection of his tells a beautiful story. My personal favorite was his 15/16 SS couture collection because of the way the pieces all come together without being too alike. Paolo Sebastian’s work is art that deserves more recognition.

Since its introduction to the world in December of 1892 Vogue has gone about as the central form counselor for the socialites of tomorrow, setting up the garments drifts in the interminably developing universe of design. Vogue is presently distributed in eighteen nations, universally extending the legacy and impact of the design wonder. In spite of Vogue's concentrate on the brief form vibes existing apart from everything else, the magazine has kept up its status as the managing voice in first class design styles for almost 120 years.

His collection offers the most elegant and feminine silhouette in beautiful fabrics, including delicate handkerchief linen and lace blouses, classic tailored blazers, refined and sophicasted dresses, handknit folk art sweaters, elegant sportswear and rich cashmere evening dresses.

I chose to talk about Marc Jacobs runway show because it caught my attention between all the other runways during New York fashion show. Marc Jacob made all the audience feel like they are on cloud around the stars through the fog that filled the stage and the bulb lamps that centered the cat walk. the models started the show with pastel color palette which made us in a dreamy mood and then it moved to unexpected bright strong color which in my opinion took us from a dreamy mood to an adventurous mood and that made me want to see more of the collection. Marc Jacobs chose unusual hair style “DreadLocks” which made the headlight in the fashion world after the show. this hair style made a lot of people ask

In the film Unzipped, the process Isaac Mizrahi goes through to put together a collection, from the creation of the garments to the presentation of the collection is documented. The first thing I learned about the industry that stood out to me was that designers can be inspired by anything. In this case, Isaac Mizrahi mentions that he derives a lot of his inspiration from a ballet, dance, films, film stars, and various famous people such as Jacqueline Kennedy. The collection Mizrahi was currently working on was inspired by garments worn by the people in the film Nanook of the North. Another thing I learned about the industry is it can be chaotic at times, but it’s worth it if you really love what you are doing and you are good at it.

For my own artist paper, I chose to study the French fashion house, Christian Dior SE. During the past seven decades, Christian Dior has transformed its brand from just another high end fashion house into a name synonymous with wealth, sophistication, power, dignity, and prestige. Christian Dior stands in a league of its own in our culture. It’s a mega brand with major influence over fashion and business. Instead of spending hours hunting down financial records and hiring practices for a smaller house, Christian Dior appealed to me because of their long history, easily accessible records, and publicly traded status meaning they would have long reports outlining all the companies numbers for a given year. Christian Dior is also the majority owner of the luxury holdings company LVMH, with a 40.9% controlling share and 100% ownership of Christian Dior Couture (CITATION).

Fashion has been around ever since ancient times, since the time of the Romans, it survived the world wars and is yet today a business with rapid changes. Fashion started off as an art form, a way for the riches to show their social status with unique and innovative designs that only they could afford. It was a way to separate the social classes of the society. In this paper I will include the creator of haute couture, and how the following designers developed couture, as well as having leading names in today’s ready-to-wear industry. The list is long, but I chose to focus on the three most important designers of the modern fashion industry.

Paul Poiret was born on April 20th, 1879 in Paris, France. His contributions to twentieth-century fashion has earned him the title in many people’s eyes as the “King of Fashion”, because he established the principle of modern dress and created the blueprint of the modern fashion industry. Poiret’s designs and ideas led the direction of modern design history. He was born into a working class family and his natural charisma eventually gained him entry into some of the most exclusive ateliers of the Belle Époque. Jacques Doucet, one of the capital’s most prominent couturiers, hired him after seeing promising sketches he had sold to other dressmakers. Furthermore, he was hired by the House of Worth and was put to work to create less

Elie Saab developed an interest on fashion starting from early ages. Built his first atelier only at the age of 18. His passion for fashion and haute couture grew in the following years and has dedicated himself to his brand from design to brand and customer communications .According to him :“Couture was a creative engine for the entire brand, a marketing tool for foundation of an image on a profound long term level.”

The passageway of modernism has introduced innovative components in the development of an individual's personality. The identity character as a social construct is highlighted through the effect that fashion has brought in, experimenting, producing and changing individual identity. The style and appearance of an individual is a portion of the fashion's period and usually refers to the possibility of people to utilize fashion industry products. This takes place just like any other consumer good that can be modified with respect to the prevalent societal codes. The modifications can be made either through surpassing or through copying them. Modern fashions are part of postmodernism. This is in the view of the fact that developments and growth in the fashion industry accompany and express development of the society through embracing postmodernism. Developments in the fashion industry offer options regarding styles, image and clothing through rejecting the options presented in modernism. This paper discusses Versace designs and their relationship to postmodernism.

With regard to the problem of the lack of a creative director, we suggest a variety of solutions. Firstly, considering that the coordination of six designers have a vital importance in order to give compactness and homogeneity to the collections, the presence of a creative director is essential. Given the increasingly influential economic crisis , we realize that hiring a new creative director can be a huge responsibility, so we think it could be useful to make each new collection in collaboration with a famous designer from the world of luxury, as other fashion companies do. In fact, by hiring a designer who is well known and recognizable - by all types of customers in every country - not just the
