Please Help Me With My Homework/Research/Survey

Most abercrombie ads are too racy to show to children.... Some of their catalogs were available to people 18 and older, I thought...

I remember they did this one catalog a while back where almost everone in it was naked... and it showed one guy tied up... parents were outraged.. so they made it more exclusive..



I dunno... this all reminds me of the movie "The people Vs. Larry Flynt"... if you've seen it, you'll understand.

If certain rights are taken away from us, who is to say that all of our other rights will remain intact....

If a parent sees that a magazine is too adult for their child, they retain the RIGHT to not buy that magazine..

Just as people retain the right to not buy p*rno mags... It's our choice, that is important... not whether nudity is used in advertisements or not.



LOL, you probably already did your debate thing... but i thought I'd just add my two cents

Homework: Help with my design paper brief.

Any help will be gladly received:

I have been set a rough brief of :
'Promotional wear/products for Leisure centres'

I think I'll be doing clothing garments, along the lines of; sweatshirts, support tops, gilets, jogging pants, tracksuits, shorts, capri/pedal pusher length legging with jersey knit wrapround miniskirts etc, T-shirts, Caps, possibly swimwear. (If anyone could think of other stuff please add).

I'm not sure to what extent the brief will be defined on the day (next tuesday), so I'm trying to cover a few areas.

If anyone knows of any designers off the top of their heads who tend to do sportswear/leisurewear type clothing/ranges. An obvious one is the recent collaboration Stella McCartney and Adidas.

Any information would be of great help

fab_fifties_fille, a few brands I can think of right now are (I'll get back with you on this when I'll be able to think of a few more

-American Apparel
-Francois Beaurgard for Space FB (Montreal designer)

But these are more comfy and a BIT sporty style, not as sport orientated as other brands......

Going with the whole sports brands collaboration thing... Y-3 by Yohji Yamamoto for Adidas. Fred Perry by Comme Des Garcons. Puma by Jil Sander. Puma by Neil Barrett. Puma by that Japanese guy who's name starts with 'M'. Converse by Eley Kishimoto.

Most of the above were both shoes and clothing ranges...

Going a bit further back, Emilio Pucci was a celebrity sportsman, hence the liberal use of spandex and production of a lot of skiwear. He was one of the pioneers of sports/casual wear in Italian fashion. Nearly all the big name Italian designers do capsule sports collections these days. If you want to see the original sports meets fashion fusion look up the American designer, Ann McCardell.

If you really must...there are threads on Galliano Golf and Galliano Surf on tFS...remember your sick-bag if you take a visit though.
