Izod Returns to the Women's Market
On January 7, 2015 (yes, I said 2015) parent company PVH announced that it would be closing all 120 Izod retail outlets due to an increased competitive environment driven by more premium brands in the outlet retail channel. This move was not intended to affect Izod's growing wholesale business to department stores and other retailers. As of 2015, Izod no longer made or sold women's clothing except for the golf line. In the opinion of Apparel Search, exiting the women's market may not have been the best idea. Rather than spending time and energy strategizing how to exit the women's market, they possibly could have better spent time focusing on redesigning a new logo.
"Izod" has meaning to a particular segment of consumer, the current "logo" possibly not so much.
Obviously losing the alligator hurt (the pain possibly started back in 1993). Which may have ultimately led to the desperate idea of bailing out of the very important women's market.
Maybe they should have taken a bite out of Lacoste and been more creative with a competitive logo. Maybe PVH should hire someone from Apparel Search. We would tell them to create a better logo to eat the Lacoste alligator for lunch. Let's be honest, the Lacoste logo is more recognizable that the "IZ" crest.
Flyknit Women's Sports Bra
Nike has applied a highly technical innovation to address a seemingly unsolvable problem—and the result is a strikingly simple bra. Flyknit technology integrates areas of support and stretch precisely where you need it, resulting in minimal bounce for maximum comfort and confidence.
The Nike FE/NOM Flyknit Women's Sports Bra is not only currently their lightest-weight high-support bra yet, but also the first to feature Nike Flyknit technology. Through the same process used to make our sustainable Flyknit footwear, the bra has been revolutionized to deliver unmatched support, comfort, and a virtually seamless, barely-there feel.

Tired of Black Friday
Are you tired of Black Friday blog posts and advertisements?
Today is Thanksgiving and we may not be sick of Turkey yet (wait until a week of eating leftovers). However, some of us may be starting to get tired of seeing advertisements about Black Friday. Yes, we understand that this is a critical shopping time for the fashion industry. And, we are definately glad to see that the apparel & footwear industry is participating. However, it feels as if we are getting bombarded by Black Friday preview advertisements (and blog posts like this one). At what point does reading about holiday sales get old...Tuesday, November 21, 2017

Azzedine Alaïa Has Passed Away
Azzedine Alaia was a Tunisian-born couturier and shoe designer, particularly successful beginning in the 1980s. After his graduation, Alaïa began working as a dressmaker's assistant. He soon began dressing private clients, and in 1957 he moved to Paris to work in fashion design. In Paris, he started to work at Christian Dior as a tailleur, but had to leave five days later as the Algerian war broke out, soon moved to work for Guy Laroche for two seasons, then for Thierry Mugler until he opened his first atelier in his little rue de Bellechasse apartment the late 1970s. He produced his first ready-to-wear collection in 1980 and moved to larger premises on rue du Parc-Royal in the Marais district.
Alaia Paris
In his youth he gained an early appreciation for design. His glamorous twin sister inspired his love for couture. A French friend of his mother fed Alaïa's instinctive creativity with copies of Vogue. He lied about his age to get himself into the local École des Beaux-Arts in Tunis, where he gained valuable insights into the human form and began studying sculpture.
During the mid-1990s, following the death of his sister, Alaïa virtually vanished from the fashion scene; however, he continued to cater for a private clientele and enjoyed commercial success with his ready-to-wear lines.

Social Media Coordinator in Theory
Social media in the fashion industry refers to how brands in the named sector connect with their target market through social media outlets such as Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, and YouTube.
There's no avoiding it: social media has become not simply a hobby. It's part of our everyday lives, including being a important part of some of our jobs.
Here is an example of a relevant career move at the Theory fashion brand.
Theory has hired Erin Reimel as Social Media Coordinator. Erin was formerly Beauty Assistant at Glamour and will continue to write freelance alongside her new role. When I first started in the industry their was no such thing as a social media coordinator (yes, I am too old).
What’s the hottest trend in fashion right now? Maybe it's "social media".

Valuable Fashion Resources
However, what if your questions are continuously on a specific subject. Do you possibly have a favorite resource that specializes on that particular subject. If you know your question is specifically regarding clothing, shoes, textiles, etc., where do you begin your search. To be honest, you probably still turn to Google or Bing (that is where I go first also).
Where does the Google & Bing website usually take us when we enter a search that is of relevance specifically to fashion?
Well, this changes from time to time because both of those companies are continuously attempting to improve search results. Algorithms and optimization is a continues game for the search engines. Therefore, the search results for a particular query change continuously.
