Damon Bankston Faded Bank shirt

Product Description

Damon Bankston Faded Bank shirt Christian Dior and Dietrich were close friends, the actor spending weekends at the designer’s country home near Milly-la-Forêt when she travelled to Paris for his shows, and insisting he dress her on screen. (“No Dior, no Dietrich” was her famous ultimatum to Alfred Hitchcock, when approached to star in the film Stage Fright. He complied.) Chiuri, the first female creative director of Dior, has reinvigorated the house by challenging assumptions of what femininity looks and feels like. This show, focusing on Dior’s unexpected synergy with Dietrich, was the latest chapter in her feminist retelling of the Dior story. An esoteric soundtrack – Yoko Ono mixed with the godmother of German punk Nina Hagen, plus a live performance by Kim Gordon – set the scene, along with an installation in the museum’s central atrium of pairs of women’s hands, wrought in dazzling neon as bright as the Manhattan skyline across the Hudson River. The artist Claire Fontaine described the work as being about “the way in which anatomy has been used to discriminate against women”. But Dior did not stage a blockbuster show in New York primarily as a platform for feminist consciousness-raising.

When Ortega opened Damon Bankston Faded Bank shirt his first store, in 1975, he called it Zara. From the start, it was an enormous success. Zara designed all its own clothing, placed small inventory orders at its local factories, and shipped products to stores within five weeks – significantly faster than the traditional design-to-retail timeline of six months. The managers reported sales data and more amorphous information such as “buzz” around particular products or other in-store customer reactions. Limited stock also created powerful demand; on the flip side, there would be a whole new range to buy in a few weeks – encouraging shoppers to quickly return to Zara’s stores. Fashion, for the first time, became fast. Zara was a colossal, world-altering success. By 2011, Zara had stores on every populated continent. Today Zara produces 450m garments a year, generating an annual revenue of $26bn. The 20,000 garment styles Zara produces every year can move from concept to product-for-purchase in one of the company’s 3,000 retail stores in as few as 15 days.
