Assignment #9 New Show Formats

Versace For H&M

This Saturday November 19th Versace's Winter 2011 line for H&M hits stores! I happen to be so excited for the release of the line and while I was researching, I came across a video advertising the line. I thought it was a great video to show iconic Versace for H&M. I also loved how Donatella Versace was at the end of the clip. The second video is a short interview with Miss Donatella herself.
I hope everyone is as excited about Versace for H&M as I am!

Enjoy,
xoxo Ashley

Assignment #8 Press Kits

Press Kits
In the fashion industry press kits are used as promotional tools to gain business and customers attention. They normally include a folder filled with a press release, a description of their target customers, concept and inspiration on their new line or product, and a promotional item. I once had to do a press kit for a "create your own boutique" project and I learned that the press kit is a huge reflection on the store. One of my favorite press kit's was Fall 2011 Tiffany & Co. USB Flash Drive. It was so creative and different! I absolutely loved how it shows the new age of technology and is so convenient!

Assignment #6 Inspirational Fashion Videos

Fashion Videos - Gucci
I choose my fashion videos on Gucci. I have always loved Gucci since I was a little girl and I have seen my Mother and Nannie dress in Gucci, it has always been so impressionable to me! Their bags have always been so iconic! Now I look for vintage Gucci bags and shop Gucci's new collections as well. I love that they came out with an adorable children's line and I can not wait to dress my future kids in fabulous Gucci clothes and accessories!
Enjoy,

NY Street Trend Assignment #4

Colored Pants
All summer I loved seeing people on the streets wearing brightly colored pants. They have a way of lightening the mood and making others around them smile. I feel as if when you're wearing them its impossible to be in a bad mood. These pants come in all different styles for all different body types. Bright bottoms are so simple and easy such as a pair of jeans, but unlike jeans these bright colored pants say so much and make such a statement
Hope you love these brightly colored pants as much as I do!
Enjoy,
