Citizen Of Fashion:Claude Montana

November 25, 2012 by The CoF

Text by Janelle Looking back on the season that was and some of the runway proportion plays, we started to think back to the larger than life silhouettes of the 1980s. Back when a shoulder pad was de rigueur you couldn’t open up a fashion magazine without seeing the incredible designs of Claude Montana. Focusing on exquisite construction, luxurious materials and of course shape, Montana’s eponymous label flourished from 1979 until 1997, and for two years in the early nineties he even […]

Goodbye Vogue Hommes Japan

November 25, 2012 by The CoF

Text by Janelle Last week it was announced that the consistently stellar Vogue Hommes Japan would be shuttering as part of Conde Nast’s decision to switch their men’s publications globally from Vogue, to GQ Style. Magazines come and go, but Vogue Hommes Japan was something special. Led by Nicola Formichetti and featuring the talents of some of fashion’s biggest names, the mag delved into the artistic, eccentric and boundary pushing side of menswear. Fashion can often be disproportionally focused on the ladies, but Formichetti and co. […]

From China With Love

November 25, 2012 by The CoF

By Janelle Asia and its diverse cultures have long had an unmistakable impact on the industry, but in recent years the influence has been especially prevalent. The growth of the Asian market and the rise of a new generation of influential Asian talents has prompted designers and photographers to look East in search of inspiration. The F/W runways were filled with pieces whose details seemed cribbed from traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fashions. Two fresh editorials showcase the season’s East […]

Armani Hotel Milano:Elegant Domain

November 25, 2012 by The CoF

Text by Alexandra Marshall Of the heavyweight Italian fashion houses, none have locked up Milan, the industry’s capital, like Giorgio Armani. The designer’s mega-ads for Emporio Armani and Armani Jeans have plastered the busy intersection of vias Broletto and dell’Orso since 1980; he co-owns the city’s basketball team—called, naturally, EA7 Emporio Armani; and it is also here, on Via Manzoni, that he has his flagship, a veritable department store featuring capsule lines of Armani chocolates, flowers, and books.

They made it an experience, one that evoked the richness of the Italian way of life. The three-day-long Sicilian extravaganza involved Bellini’s bel canto opera Norma in an ancient Roman amphitheatre; an incredible fireworks display synced to Verdi’s Valzer Brillante against a picture-perfect Mount […]

Grace:A Memoir By Grace Coddington

November 24, 2012 by The CoF

“If Wintour is the Pope . . . , Coddington is Michelangelo, trying to paint a fresh version of the Sistine Chapel twelve times a year,” Time magazine said in 2009, after Vogue’s creative director rather unexpectedly was launched into the public consciousness by the hit documentary The September Issue.

November 23, 2012 by The CoF

Tommy Crawford, strategic communications manager at Greenpeace, highlights the dangers of the toxic chemicals contained in the clothing we wear and urges action. BEIJING, China — Nobody wants to be a fashion victim. Desperately chasing the ever-elusive ‘cool,’ fashion victims are generally perceived as ‘try-hards,’ those who sport the latest trends and buy into transient fads, regardless of fit or personal style. These so-called victims, slaves to the vagaries of a few, have a soft spot for fast-fashion and designer labels. […]

A Place Like No Other:Capri

November 23, 2012 by The CoF

Fashion Enterprise to Combat Slavery
