Is the fashion industry focused on sales and not the consumer?

Dear all,

I am interested on create interesting topics of discussion. I would really appreciate your input on my threads. So...

Being a relatively young industry, the fashion one is closely related with customer satisfaction and social change.
In today's world, Brands of all market levels focus their efforts on product release and not the consumer, ending up with an outdated retailing format which does not cater for the new wave of fluid customer. At the same time, people do not seem to follow the fashion industry as much as they use to due to the lack of creativity from diluted fast fashion collections adopted from the runways.

I would like to know your opinion about the actual fashion industry and the issues related with the connection between fashion brands and final consumers. Please give your opinion and expand the topic as much as you can.

Would you agree that brands need to put more effort on creativity and customer connection?
What do you think about today's creativity from collections on runways?
Do you think the fashion industry is too fast?
Does the costumer want a deeper connection and experience from clothes & brands?

Thank you for your opinions.:smile:

Where is the creativity in the fashion industry?

Dear all,

I am interested on create interesting topics of discussion. I would really appreciate your input on my threads. So...

Fashion industry is packed with collections, runways and Brands, either new designers or stablished ones. The quantity of fashion Labels forming each month around the world is massive and the industry cannot keep up with the amount of creativity wanting to be exposed to the public. With thousands of fashion companies (some being relevant and others not so much relevant, from small to the biggest, or with big or small size production), the industry is saturated and its creativity is suffering greatly due to the fast pace on the quantity of collections released each year and the monopoly of the fast fashion market.

I would like to know your opinion about the actual fashion industry and the issues related with the lack of creativity from brands and why this has happened. Please give your opinion and expand the topic as much as you can.

Would you say the fashion industry is creative enough? Or could it be more creative?
Do you think fashion brands are different enough from one another?
Would you say fast fashion is killing creativity and fast fashion retailers should be more creative?
Is the industry going too fast? Should they slow down and develop better and more defined concepts?

Thank you for your opinions.:smile:

Is the today's consumer following any real fashion industry?

Dear all,

I am interested on create interesting topics of discussion. I would really appreciate your input on my threads. So...

Seasonal collections depend heavily on trend forecasting, as a result from social, political, economic and technological changes, being able to predict what is going to come next and incorporate those changes within the fashion industry creative process and, later on, the creation of such clothes.
On the other hand, as a response from these changes, different social movements are emerging with an anti-fashion attitude. People do not construct their wardrobes following some particular brands, abandoning the feel, price points or even the image that clothing Label can give to the wearer. Instead, women and men make the choice completely based on how they feel and literally combining anything with anything else without any ruling from the fashion industry.

I would like to know your opinion about this rebellion against the fashion industry itself and how fashion brands can do to follow the people’s initiative instead of imposing their own industry standards.

Would you say that society is still being ruled by the fashion industry? If so, is this going to signify the end of Brands as they are today?
Is any relevance on advertising and presenting a Brand to a certain demographic?
Do you like to make your own wardrobe or do you prefer to follow brands guidelines?

Thank you for your opinions.:smile:

Does the creative educational sector need more funding?

Dear all,

I am interested on create interesting topics of discussion. I would really appreciate your input on my threads. So...

Fashion and creative course in general receive limited funding as it is ranked very low on any educational sector worldwide, due to its irrelevance on the development of social or political advancement.
The limitation on governmental funding on the creative arts impacts heavily on the design and technological sectors, and this is especially true on fashion courses. As a consequence, creative subjects do not keep up with industry standards and skill requirements for these jobs, making students irrelevant and extremely inexperienced after their degree.

I would like to know your opinion about the lack of technological resources provided on fashion colleges and universities in specific, but also true in art and design courses around the world; and how this matter affects the future of the creative industry overall but specially for the future new generations of fashion designers.

Would you say that creative courses are equipped with the necessary tools to succeed in the creative industry, especially in the fashion sector?
Are Fashion Colleges and Universities up to date with the fashion industry?
Do you think the creative sector needs more funding to nourish the future generation of fashion designers?

Thanks for your opinions.:smile:

Purple #76 Spring/Summer 2018

For this issue, we have released twelve different covers: MAURIZIO CATTELAN, NICOLAS GHESQUIÈRE, DEMNA GVASALIA, ANNE IMHOF, REI KAWAKUBO, CRAIG MCDEAN, KIKO MIZUHARA, FELIPE OLIVEIRA BAPTISTA, SHAYNE OLIVER, MIUCCIA PRADA, JUERGEN TELLER, and AMANDA WALL.

“In this summer issue I wanted to put together a gallery of the exceptionally talented people I’ve known and loved for years, along with artists I’ve recently discovered and find inspiring. These are some of the people — stars and non-stars, from models to architects and artists to thinkers — who help me to understand this changing world and to navigate my way through it.

Yes, we know that art can’t change the world. But these artists share a certain optimism or idealism, simply because they all, like me, believe that art is not décor to embellish a richer lifestyle, nor is it an escape into a dream world.
Art can inspire the impulse to move, to change, and to transform the world inch by inch, second by second, and step by step. Maybe these artists don’t even want to make the world better. But they show us life through a clearer lens. Because we believe that style is the answer to everything.

The first Purple Index lists 76 of the most creative people in art and fashion — in alphabetical order to avoid any kind of hierarchy. Each was photographed or portrayed through their work. Of course, this number is arbitrary. We could have gone on and shown more. We simply didn’t have enough time or enough pages. But all these artists are highly innovative and influential, not only in what they do, but also in how they do it: methodically, ironically, obsessively, or intuitively, and always with style.

We interviewed them to understand how they innovate, express themselves, and move forward in a period when creativity is everywhere and relevance is rare.” — OLIVIER ZAHM

Purple Index 76 also includes texts by JEAN -LUC NANCY, ÉRIC TRONCY, SLAVOJ ZIZEK, interviews with artists XAVIER VEILHAN, FRANCISCO VEZZOLI, URS FISCHER, fashion shoots by JUERGEN TELLER, CHIKASHI SUZUKI, GRAIG MCDEAN, BRIANNA CAPOZZI, BENEDICT BRINK and many others.

Today we present the COVER #1 OF 12 featuring LILI SUMNER for REI KAWAKUBO / COMME DES GARÇONS shot by ANDREA SPOTORNO and styled by SHEILA SINGLE.
