Per la prima volta l’UE ha applicato il Digital Markets Act (DMA) infliggendo multe ad Apple (500 milioni di euro) e Meta (200 milioni) per pratiche anticoncorrenziali. Apple è accusata di ostacolare l’accesso degli utenti a offerte alternative sull’App Store, mentre Meta avrebbe imposto una scelta troppo rigida tra condivisione dei dati e abbonamento a pagamento. Le sanzioni, ben inferiori alla soglia massima prevista dal DMA, suggeriscono una volontà europea di non aggravare ulteriormente i rapporti con gli Stati Uniti, già tesi per via della guerra commerciale lanciata da Trump. Bruxelles assicura che le decisioni sono puramente giuridiche, ma la Casa Bianca ha reagito duramente parlando di “estorsione economica”. Interviene Michele Polo, professore Ordinario di Economia Politica presso l'Università Bocconi.Kering, ricavi del primo trimestre in calo del 14% a 3,9 miliardiNel primo trimestre del 2025 Kering ha registrato ricavi in calo del 14%, a 3,9 miliardi di euro, deludendo le attese degli analisti. Il calo ha colpito tutte le aree geografiche, con l’Asia-Pacifico in forte contrazione (-25%), seguita da Europa occidentale e Nord America (-13%), e Giappone (-11%). Il titolo, che da inizio anno ha perso oltre il 25%, ha chiuso in rialzo prima della trimestrale, in scia alla buona performance del settore lusso a Parigi. Le vendite del canale retail diretto, centrale per la strategia di Kering, sono scese del 16%, mentre il wholesale ha perso il 23%, in linea con la politica di rafforzamento dell’esclusività distributiva. Tra i brand, Gucci ha segnato la flessione più marcata (-25%), penalizzata dal calo del traffico nei negozi e dalla razionalizzazione dell’offerta. Saint Laurent ha registrato un -9%, con segnali di tenuta in Medio Oriente e in parte del mercato occidentale. In controtendenza, Bottega Veneta ha chiuso con un +4%, grazie alla crescita a doppia cifra in Europa, Nord America e Medio Oriente. Le altre maison del gruppo hanno registrato un calo dell’11%, ma con dinamiche variegate: bene Brioni, Pomellato e Qeelin, più deboli McQueen e Balenciaga (nonostante il buon andamento nella pelletteria). Ne parliamo con Filippo Diodovich, market Strategist di IG Italia.Generali, l assemblea conferma Donnet alla guidaMediobanca vince la "battaglia" in assemblea Generali con il 52,38% dei voti, assicurando la riconferma di Donnet e Sironi, ma la "guerra" resta aperta. La lista Caltagirone si ferma al 36,8%, rafforzata dall'appoggio di Unicredit (6,7% del capitale), Delfin (9,9%) e Crt. Assogestioni esclusa dal CdA. Gli istituzionali, il retail e i piccoli azionisti si schierano con Mediobanca, che resta l’azionista di riferimento (13,04%). Nonostante la sconfitta, Caltagirone conquista tre consiglieri e conserva un ruolo critico in CdA. La partita ora si sposta su Mps, dove lo stesso Caltagirone è azionista e il dialogo con Mediobanca resta tutto da scrivere. Laura Galvagni, Il Sole 24 Ore.Dazi, 12 Stati Usa fanno causa a TrumpDodici Stati americani, guidati da procuratori democratici e alcuni governatori repubblicani, hanno fatto causa a Trump per i dazi unilaterali, accusandolo di abuso del potere tariffario che spetterebbe al Congresso. Denunciato un impatto economico grave e immediato, soprattutto in Stati come California e Oregon. Mentre la tensione cresce, emerge una figura chiave nell’amministrazione: Scott Bessent, nuovo Segretario al Tesoro, ex trader di Soros e primo esponente apertamente gay nel ruolo. Con approccio pragmatico e tono conciliatore, Bessent spinge per una politica commerciale meno instabile, promuovendo un'America First aperta alla cooperazione globale. Marco Valsania, Il Sole24Ore.

Kunstvoll wird es heute! Das mögen wir ja: Wenn es im Hotel so viel zu entdecken gibt, dass es gar nicht so schlimm ist, wenn man mal nicht rauskommt. Was aber auch schade wäre, denn die Umgebung, in der das Grand Hotel Brioni Pula, A Radisson Collection Hotel liegt, ist auch traumhaft schön.
THE Sales Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
I recently launched a new project called Fare Bella Figura – Make a Good Impression. Every day I take a photograph of what I am wearing and then I go into detail about why I am wearing it and put it up on social media. To my astonishment, these posts get very high impressions and a strong following. It is ironic for me. I have written over 3000 articles on hard core subjects like sales, leadership and presentations, but these don't get the same level of engagement. Like this article, I craft it for my audience and work hard on the content and yet articles about my suit choices get a lot more traction. What I take away from this is people are interested in how we present ourselves in business. The thesis of Fare Bella Figura is that first impressions are so important. In sales, people judge us hard based on how we look, before we even have a chance to open our mouths. If we don't get that initial visual interaction correct, then we can be playing catchup to correct an unhelpful first take on us. “Clothes maketh the man” is an old idea and is related to this first impressions equation. The other thesis of Fare Bella Figura is that I dress for the meetings I am going to have that day, rather than some random selection of what is back from the dry cleaners. We are going to make an impression with the buyer one way or another, so I want to be in control of that impression as much as is humanly possible. I believe there is a direct link between how we present ourselves and the degree of credibility we can instil in the client. If we make a mess of the fabric and colour combinations, we are screaming “unsophisticated”. I do not recommend for men to ask their wives for advice. Study this “dress for success” topic for yourself and become the master of your own universe. If we are turning up with ancient stains on our tie, or our suit, it is interpreted as sloppy and there is now a strong doubt about our quality consciousness. If our shoes are scuffed or not displaying a high shine finish, it says we are lazy, not detail oriented and unreliable. The term “down at heel” means “poor” and it comes from the fact that the back of the heel of the shoe has worn down and has not been repaired. Either we are too poor and obviously not a success in the sales profession to be able to repair it, or too indifferent and either way, it is a bad sign for the buyer. If we are wearing a brown or tan belt with black shoes or vice versa, it says “hick” and someone who lacks common sense. The exact matching tie and pocket square colour combination is another faux pas these days. Would we want to accept these types of salesperson as our “trusted advisor”? I doubt it. I certainly wouldn't take their advice on anything if they can't even dress themselves correctly. Suits too large or too small are another bad indicator. They have either lost a lot of weight, but haven't bothered to get their suit taken in, or they are getting chubbier and haven't had the suit taken out, because they won't spend the money. It isn't that expensive to alter an existing suit, and the difference is total. If the suit trousers are too long or too short, it looks off – go and get them altered or replace them. Style and fashion are difficult to navigate. Suit jacket lapels get skinnier, ties get wider and then get narrower, trousers get slimmer and then get fuller, socks get discarded when wearing shoes – all sorts of temporary fashion trends take over the dictates of what is appropriate. Suits can last more than one fashion trend and you have to debate with yourself whether that wide lapel is still going to present the right image with the client when everyone else is wearing a narrower lapel these days. I struggle with this. I have a favourite double breasted Versace suit from years ago and because the style is dated; I don't get to wear it much or at all and that seems a waste. However, if I am dressing for my client, then the answer is simple – leave it in the wardrobe for a day in the future when that trend makes a comeback. My mantra when I leave the house every day is to check my look in the mirror and ask myself, “do I look like one of the most professional people in my industry?”. If I don't, then I go and make a few changes, until I am satisfied I can pass that test. Here is a caveat. For a lot of men in Europe, they will be wearing a jacket and trouser combination, rather than a suit and the American trend is to much more casual clothing. In certain industries, like IT, you will hardly see anyone wearing a suit. Now I sell in Tokyo and everyone here wears a suit. I remember I was so surprised when met the President of a gas stand and he was wearing a suit, so men's suits are predominant here. Therefore, I dress for this business environment and you should do the same for your reality. There is a correlation between the quality of our clothing and our personal financial success. Buyers judge us based on what they see. If we look cheap and nasty, they won't want to trust us with their business because we don't look successful. On the other hand, if we are overdressed, it can have a negative consequence. It can make them feel inferior, so the balance is important. If we roll up in our expensive Brioni or Kiton suits and Rolex watches, and they are just a salaryman tasked with purchasing goods and services for the company, they can feel inferior and experience some discomfort. We look a bit too sharp to them and they don't want to get cut. As I say, getting the balance right is the key. We will make an impression on the buyer based on what we wear, so we need to determine what that impression will be. We don't leave it to luck or chance. We make sure it is the right choice – the one that leads to the deal getting done. Do you need to sell more? Is your sales manager stressing you about making your monthly sales quota?

Er ist der Gatekeeper zu den schönsten Düften der Welt. Und schauen wir doch alle mal selbst: Wer hat wie viele Flacons in seinem Bad stehen und wieviel dafür bezahlt? Es ist auf jeden Fall Big Business. 58 Milliarden Euro werden mittlerweile weltweit für Fragrance ausgegeben. Tendenz: jedes Jahr 13 % mehr. Bis 2032 sollen es rund 86 Milliarden Euro sein. Kein anderes Luxusprodukt kommt uns so nah, kein anderes ist begehrter: Das zweit beliebteste Geschenk der Welt – es ist Parfüm. Nur Geschenkgutscheine werden noch lieber verschenkt. Kein Wunder also, dass die Branche on fire ist. Große Übernahme-Schlachten inklusive: Das Luxus-Konglomerat Kering, Inhaber von Hype-Brands wie Gucci und Balenciga, hat gerade den berühmten Parfum-Hersteller Creed gekauft. Estée Lauder hat Tom Ford übernommen. Für 2.8 Milliarden Dollar. Was das alles bedeutet: Darüber habe ich mit Deutschlands oberstem Duft-Repräsentanten gesprochen. Udo Heuser. Er ist Präsident der Fragrance Foundation, die alljährlich die besten Parfüm-Kreationen mit den Duftstar-Awards prämiert. Und Mitinhaber der Nobilis Group, der führende Distributeur für Luxus- und Lifestyle-Düfte in Deutschland, Österreich und Schweiz. Ich habe ihn im Headquarter seiner Nobilis Group in Wiesbaden besucht. Als CEO und Managing Partner vertritt er rund 60 Brands von Parfum-Genie Francis Kurkdjian, Atkinsons, Brioni, Elie Saab, Montblanc, Versace bis eben Creed und demnächst auch noch Brunello Cucinelli. In TOMorrow sagt er, wie sich das Business verändert. Die entscheidenden Trends. Aber auch wertvolle Tipps: Wie wird ein Duft denn nun richtig aufgetragen? Was tun, wenn ich Leute einfach nicht riechen kann? Und wieso Parfums immer wichtiger werden für unser Personal Branding. Das neue Luxusverständnis – das alles jetzt hier in TOMorrow. Viel Spaß mit dem Duft des Erfolgs, viel Spaß mit Deutschlands Parfum-Papst Udo Heuser.

Bei der Fashionweek in Mailand wurde es jetzt wieder sehr deutlich: Es gibt tolle Mode, wichtige Trends. Aber es gibt eines, das über allem schwebt – und das ist Stil, wahrer Stil. Und genau für den ist er zuständig: Norbert Stumpfl, seit 2018 Executive Design Director von Brioni. Er schneidert die schönsten Anzüge der Welt. Von Made to Measure bis Bespoke – nicht nur handgemacht, sondern höchste Handwerkskunst. Die wertvollsten Stoffe, leichtester Cashmere, Sakkos schwerelos wie Wolken. Ich konnte mich bei der Präsentation der neuesten Kollektion in Mailand jetzt wieder persönlich davon überzeugen. Es ist beeindruckend zu sehen: Oft sitzen Schneider monatelang an einem einzigen Piece. Die Kundenliste ist das globale Who-is-Who: Brad Pitt, James Bond, Jude Law. Könige und Regierungs-Chefs. Top-Excetutives, die sich eben auch top fühlen wollen. Gegründet wurde Brioni 1945 von dem auf der Savile Row ausgebildeten Schneidern Nazareno Fonticoli und Gaetano Savini in Rom. Der Firmenname Brioni ist eine Referenz an die Brijuni-Inseln in Kroatien, die Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts Hotspot des europäischen Jetsets waren. Der legendäre Brioni Style: In TOMorrow spricht Norbert Stumpfl über modernes Stilempfinden. Dass die Persönlichkeit dabei im Vordergrund steht und wir uns nicht hinter Markenlogos verstecken sollten. Der neue heimliche Luxus – und was der bewirkt. Dazu seine außergewöhnliche Karriere, wie er es von einem Bauernhof in Österreich über London und Paris an die Kreativ-Spitze des römischen Luxus-Hauses geschafft hat. Und die Zusammenarbeit mit Weltstars wie Brad Pitt – das alles jetzt hier in TOMorrow. Also, ziehen wir uns sehr, sehr gut an: Viel Spaß mit der obersten Stil-Instanz, viel Spaß auf der Mailänder Fashionweek mit Brioni-Chefdesigner Norbert Stumpfl.

The History of Fashion and Design series begins with a tribute to Wilkes Bashford, the iconic name in San Francisco fashion. With his first store in Union Square in 1966, Wilkes Bashford became SF's top trend-setter. He introduced young European designers like Brunello Cucinelli and Brioni, and was the very first in the city to carry popular names like Ralph Lauren and Alexander Julian. Wilkes described his style as “clothing for the bold conservative” as it was favored by famous politicians like former Mayor Willie Brown Jr. Wilkes brought grace, elegance and style to San Francisco, his influence remaining strong even after his death in 2016. We sat down with three long-time friends and employees of Wilkes Bashford. Sharon Kish is a poet, humorist, and oral historian. Denise Johnson has spent her career working with Industry-leading brands that have redefined the retail experience both in the United States and abroad; the breadth of her experience includes new store openings, merchandising and sales, which makes her an asset to growing brands that seek to re-envision retail environments in the 21st Century. Yuriko Takata — wife of the late Jody Wilson, who owned the shoe and handbag concession in Bashford's stores — was able to assist her husband on international trips to help collect the best possible goods for Bashford's stores. We were so pleased to hear stories about Wilkes Bashford from women who all knew and loved him. We hope you enjoy this interview in his honor. For more information about Wilkes Bashford, please visit: https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Wilkes-Bashford-The-man-who-gave-San-Francisco-6765886.php Meet Sharon Kish, Denise Johnson, and Yuriko Takata!
Na Brdu pri Kranju je bilo danes srečanje v okviru pobude Brdo-Brioni, od katerega zaradi nesoglasij med voditelji niso pričakovali veliko. Sodelujoči so sprejeli šest sklepov, ne pa tudi skupne izjave. Po mnenju predsednika republike Boruta Pahorja je bilo srečanje vseeno uspešno: Voditelji si kjub vsemu želijo nadaljevanja procesa, ki pa je pod vprašajem, saj se izteka mandat pobudniku, predsedniku Pahorju. Ostali poudarki oddaje: Vodenje ljubljanskega Kliničnega centra začasno prevzema Marko Jug Vlada in sindikati javnega sektorja brez napredka v pogajanjih Bencin in dizel bosta od polnoči občutno cenejša.
Na Brdu pri Kranju poteka srečanje voditeljev držav zahodnega Balkana v okviru pobude Brdo-Brioni. Ne glede na medsebojna nesoglasja so prišli vsi povabljeni voditelji. Po napovedih bodo pozvali k pospešitvi pristopnih pogajanj držav v regiji z Evropsko unijo in dodelitvi statusa kandidatke za članstvo Bosni in Hercegovini. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Minister za delo Mesec za vodjo Inšpektorata za delo predlaga Luko Lukiča. - Na Švedskem po parlamentarnih volitvah v vodstvu desni pol, končni izidi v sredo. - Prebivalce Knežaka razveselila mobilna enota pošte, problem le kratek delovni čas.

Martin Majano is the owner of North Menswear. With a passion for fashion as a child, Martin always knew that he would work in the industry as a kid. Dating back to his years in San Francisco where he was born, to his life in New York where his love for men's apparel grew. Fast forward to 2013 when Martin stumbled upon North Menswear, then owned by Pete Surprenant. Martin was quickly enamored by North Menswear. After years of working with notable brands such as Prada, Apple, Louis Vuitton, Omega Watches, Brioni and John Varvatos, Martin took ownership of North Menswear at the end of January 2020. He is carrying the torch to bring North Menswear to the forefront of men's fashion in Orange County. The focus for North is American Made and local brands from San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano, Laguna Beach, San Diego and Los Angeles. There are several brands made in other states as well. Martin truly feels that people should invest in their wardrobes as most of the brands that are carried in North are heritage and quality brands. The North team has a vision to open up several more shops along coastal cities on the west coast. From San Diego all the way up to Washington state. It's not every day that people find their life's passion. In this case, their true north!Connect with Martin:Email | martin@northmenswear.comWebsite Instagram | @northmenswearFacebookFREE ResourcesFREE QUIZ: Discover Why You're Stuck!Connect with Angelo & Alpha Hippie:Apply to work with Alpha HippieWebsiteInstagramFacebookFree Facebook Group

Wann immer eine spannende Rolle zu vergeben ist, fällt sein Name: Ob die historische Filmreihe „Ku'damm“ oder die Neu-Inszenierung von „Das Boot“: August Wittgenstein ist einer der stärksten Charaktere des neuen deutschen Films. Und er hat das, was viele deutsche Schauspieler immer wieder vermissen lassen: Er hat einfach Stil. Ausgezeichnet als „Best dressed Artist“. Nun gut, vielleicht hat er auch einen kleinen Style-Vorsprung von Zuhause mitbekommen: Er ist nämlich ein echter Prinz, kommt aus einer der ältesten Adelsfamilien Europas. Sein wahrer Name: August-Frederik Wendelin Otto Henrik Prinz zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. Aber er nennt sich einfach nur August, August Wittgenstein. Ein global Citizen par excellence. Geboren in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Internat in Schweden, Abitur in Großbritannien, erste Jobs ins Paris und Australien, Geschichts-Studium in Washington, Schauspielschule in New York und Los Angeles. Sein erster Film – gleich mit Hollywoodsuperstar Tom Hanks. Nur eine Nebenrolle, aber über die muss er heute noch lachen… Ich habe August Wittgenstein jetzt in seiner Wahlheimat Berlin besucht und mit ihm darüber gesprochen, was Style und wahren Stil ausmacht. Wie ihn die richtigen Looks zu Höchstleistungen pushen. Und manchmal sogar viel zu kleine Schuhe eine Extra-Motivation sein können. Wie sich das Film-Business durch die Digitalisierung ändert. Neue E-Castings über Laptop statt persönliches Vorspielen. Wie man da auf den Punkt genau funktioniert, seine Taktik, seine besten Strategien. Und wie wir alle die beste Rolle unseres Lebens spielen können. Dazu: Der neue James Bond. Und natürlich haben wir auch über das Drama um Alec Baldwin diskutiert. Der Todes-Schuss am Filmset. Wie kann so etwas passieren? Und was bedeutet das für die Filmbranche? Das alles jetzt hier in TOMorrow.
À sept mois de l'élection présidentielle, le débat entre Jean-Luc Mélenchon et Eric Zemmour était très attendu en cette rentrée politique. Durant deux heures, le candidat de La France insoumise et le polémiste d'extrême droite ont étalé leurs désaccords sur BFMTV. Eric Zemmour laisse toujours planer le doute sur une éventuelle candidature pour 2022. Pour Jean-Michel Apathie, il est sur orbite. Le "revenu d'engagement", qui aurait dû être dévoilé par Emmanuel Macron à la rentrée, tarde à se dessiner. Le gouvernement semble tergiverser. De quoi susciter des doutes sur sa faisabilité d'ici à la fin du quinquennat. Olivier Babeau, lui, dit oui au "revenu d'engagement". Principale figure de la tentative de sécession de la Catalogne en 2017, le leader indépendantiste s'était enfui en Belgique pour échapper aux autorités espagnoles. Il a été arrêté jeudi soir par la police italienne à sa descente d'avion en Sardaigne. Carles Puigdemont a été libéré vendredi, dans l'attente de la décision du juge sur son extradition. Abnousse Shalmani parle d'un nouveau sursis. N'Fanteh Minteh revient ce soir sur l'annonce du groupe de luxe Kering. Les deux dernières marques du groupe à utiliser de la fourrure animale, Yves Saint Laurent et Brioni, y renonceront à compter des collections de l'automne 2022. Un cap qui avait déjà été franchi par les griffes Gucci, Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta et Alexander McQueen. La fourrure c'est fini pour Kering ! Du lundi au vendredi, à partir de 18h, David Pujadas apporte toute son expertise pour analyser l'actualité du jour avec pédagogie.
O grupo Kering, um dos principais nomes do setor do luxo mundial, anunciou nesta sexta-feira (24) que todas suas marcas deixarão de usar peles de animais em seus produtos. A decisão segue na esteira de outras grifes do mercado que, diante dos protestos cada vez mais frequentes, abandonaram essa prática. Porém, algumas empresas mantém a tradição, visando principalmente a clientela chinesa. Kering é proprietário de marcas emblemáticas, como a francesa Balenciaga, a italiana Gucci ou ainda a britânica Alexander McQueen. Boa parte de suas grifes já haviam abandonado o uso de pelos nos últimos anos. Mas a francesa Saint Laurent e a italiana Brioni mantinham a tradição dos casacos e acessórios confeccionados com peles de animais. Saint Laurent chegou a ser alvo de um protesto em março passado, quando militantes do grupo PETA se reuniram diante de uma de suas lojas parisienses. Os militantes reagiam a uma campanha publicitária na qual a modelo Kate Moss aparecia vestindo um casaco feito com pele de raposa. Mas isso faz parte do passado e, a partir de agora, segundo a direção da Kering, nenhuma marca do grupo usará peles em seus produtos."Consideramos que matar animais que não vão ser comidos estritamente para usar suas peles não corresponde ao luxo moderno, que deve ser ético, de acordo com seu tempo e com os debates sociais", disse a diretora de desenvolvimento durável do grupo, Marie-Claire Daveu. Kering segue o exemplo de marcas concorrentes do grupo, como Chanel, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Armani, Versace, Prada ou Burberry, que já haviam abandonado o uso de peles de animais. Algumas lojas de departamentos, como a Macy's, nos Estados Unidos, também pararam de vender peles desde o início deste ano. A maior parte das peles consumidas pela moda atualmente são produzidas em cativeiro e essa prática suscita críticas virulentas, principalmente dos consumidores mais jovens. Uma pesquisa recente aponta que 77% dos franceses são favoráveis ao fechamento total das fazendas de criação de animais exclusivamente para consumo de suas peles. No entanto, roupas e acessórios confeccionados com peles de animais continuam sendo muito procurados na China, país que concentra um dos principais mercados para o setor do luxo. Hipocrisia? A decisão do grupo foi saudada por parte das associações de defesa dos animais, como o grupo PETA, que afirmou que a notícia é uma “vitória”. Já a federação dos profissionais do setor de peles na França acusou Kering de “hipocrisia”, lembrando que o grupo vai continuar usando outros materiais de origem animal, como couro e lã, e que a abolição das peles, anunciada em plena temporada de desfiles do das coleções de prêt-à-porter primavera-verão 2022 é acima de tudo simbólica. A fundação da atriz francesa Brigitte Bardot, militante fervorosa da causa, pediu que o grupo LVMH, número um mundial do luxo e concorrente direto do Kering siga o exemplo. O líder do setor sempre disse que cada uma de suas maisons é livre para escolher sua posição sobre o assunto. LVMH é dono de marcas como Dior, Louis Vuitton e Givenchy, mas também Fendi e Stella McCartney, que têm posições opostas sobre o tema. Enquanto a grife da filha de Paul McCartney é defensora de uma moda vegana, a tradicional marca italiana construiu toda sua imagem na reputação de seus casacos de peles.
Proces Brdo-Brioni je prinesel skupen poziv k čimprejšnji širitvi Evropske unije na zahodni Balkan, ne pa tudi omembe nespremenljivosti meja na Balkanu. Zahtevno, a uspešno, je srečanje ocenil gostitelj, predsednik Pahor. A kot dodajajo analitiki, je Slovenija, kljub uspehom pri spodbujanju dialoga, zamudila vlak za mesto ključne povezovalke med regijo in Unijo. Preostale teme: Evropski zunanji ministri danes o spopadih med Izraelom in Hamasom; a med članicami Unije različni pogledi na konflikt, ki je v dveh tednih zahteval že več kot 200 življenj. Pravna mreža za varstvo demokracije po neuradnih informacijah na ljubljansko okrožno državno tožilstvo podala kazensko ovadbo proti direktorju Urada vlade za komuniciranje Urošu Urbaniji zaradi zlorabe položaja.

THE Leadership Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
The WHO team investigating the origins of the Covid-19 pandemic in Wuhan came up empty. A lot of fairy floss was wrapped around the report, but reading the outcomes there were no outcomes. If we don't want to face the reality of why this occurred in the first place, then there is no comfort that we can prevent Covid-20 arriving unannounced at some time in the future. As leaders what are we going to be working on between pandemics? The current one will hopefully quiet down over the course of 2021. There are five pillars of leadership we can rely on to be prepared for the next round of viral mayhem or any other VUCA events. Take responsibility for the future. We lead intentional lives and we help our team members to do the same. Most people in first world countries are leading accidental lives, buffeted by whatever happens to them, unable to exercise any control of their fate. You can understand it when poverty, lack of resources and no useful assistance are your third world reality, but not in our advanced economies. Dispensing THE VISION from on high is not as good as co-creating it with the team. Let's get the direct reports working together and come up with the enterprise wide umbrella vision and then have every work group cascade that down to form their own, within the general direction of that umbrella vision. So what is the state of play of your corporate vision – if I called your company right now, can the person picking up the phone recite it from memory? If you can't remember it you cannot live it. Build a culture of trust The value set of the leader determines the culture of the firm. If the leader is the alpha thrusting type, consumed by personal avarice, then dystopian political survival games will rule. If the leader focuses on developing their people to their maximum potential, then trust and respect will reign throughout the team. Are you building a whole that is greater than the sum of the parts or are you tearing each other apart? Is it a safe environment for the meek and mild to speak up and offer their ideas? Or do the super noisy minority dominate the airwaves and get all the attention? Create a culture of collaboration Superman wore tights and a cape not a Brioni suit. The leader as superman concept worked in a less complex business world. Today, no one person can know everything, in real time and make all the key decisions. The leader no longer must be male and that revolution is still creeping forward, a long way from reaching its destination. According to ex-Prime Minister and ex-Tokyo Organising Committee Head Mori, women talk too much. That statement says everything about the state of collaboration in Japan. We want the best ideas. Is your corporate culture an enabler or a blocker in that process? Communicate effectively The leader articulates the narrative about the desired future state of the organisation. From lowest to highest on the firm totem pole, there is a strong sense of “what I do matters around here and I am valued”, because that message has been communicated from top to bottom. Feeling valued is the springboard to feeling engaged. Are your leaders constantly banging the drum that their people are valued? Demonstrate reliability Trust in business is wrapped up in reliability. Reliability simply communicates that I always do what I say I will do and you can make plans and take risks on that basis. Are your organisation's leaders consistently reliable? If I asked people at random, would they say they trusted the leadership, because they were reliable and were true to their word? We are creatures of emotion with a thin veneer of logic lightly smeared over the top. We are not perfect and mistakes with people are an ever present danger. Do we understand what we need to be working on as leaders? Are we working on our businesses, rather than being a busy bee in our businesses? The best antidote for the next pandemic is mastering these five pillars of leadership. We need to get on to this now, because we probably have less time than we think, as propaganda tries to overtake and replace science.

Hear Me, See Me. Podcast. Hairdressing Icon, Sam McKnight.This episode was an absolute joy for me as it is one of my absolute hair heroes, Sam McKnight.Celebrated session hair stylist, Sam McKnight, is the hairdresser's hairdresser. He boasts a legendary career spanning over four decades encompassing catwalk, editorial and advertising campaigns for fashion houses such as Chanel, Fendi, Balmain, Burberry and Tom Ford. A regular contributor to both British and international Vogues, W, Harper's Bazaar, Vanity Fair, i-D and Love, he has over 100 covers to his name from British Vogue alone. McKnight is also a Contributing Beauty Editor at British Vogue. McKnight has collaborated with some of the world's most prominent photographers including Patrick Demarchelier, Mario Testino and Nick Knight. A long-time stylist for the late Princess Diana, McKnight was the creative behind her iconic short, slicked back hairstyle in the now-famous 1990 Demarchelier shoot for British Vogue, a partnership that led to him becoming her personal hair stylist for seven years.One of the original session stylists, McKnight initially trained as a teacher before working as an assistant at a local hairdresser in his native Scotland. Moving to London in the early 1970's, McKnight secured a position at Molton Brown, which at the time was a leading hair salon in London's South Molton Street. He worked on projects for London-based magazines 19 and Honey before landing his first editorial shoot with British Vogue in 1977. While working in London, he was introduced to stylists Liz Tilberis (later editor of British Vogue and Harpers Bazaar US) and Lucinda Chambers (British Vogue), who were instrumental in hiring him for high-profile editorial shoots.McKnight has been bestowed the Lifetime Achievement Award at both the Scottish Fashion Awards and Creative Head Awards 2015. He is hugely respected within the hairdressing community and is often cited as a source of inspiration or named as ‘the hairstylist I would most like to work with' by his peers.On November 2nd 2016, Somerset House launched Hair by Sam McKnight, a major exhibition celebrating McKnight's impressive career. Never before has an exhibition of this kind taken place, looking at hair from a new perspective and celebrating the significant role of session hair styling in both fashion and culture throughout the decades.In tandem, McKnight also released his first book: Hair by Sam McKnight (Rizzoli), a hardback anthology of his magazine covers, editorial shoots and personal insights into working at the heart of the fashion industry.June 2017 saw McKnight launch a brand: Hair by Sam McKnight, in Liberty of London, injecting fashion, glamour and ease into haircare and styling. The collection is the culmination of McKnight's knowledge and experience in the industry, giving women the tools and confidence to style their hair themselves.PhotographersAlasdair McLellan, Andrea Spotorno, Angelo Pennetta, Arthur Elgort, Ben Hassett, Bruce Weber, Carter Smith, Charlotte Wales, Clara Giaminardi, Corinne Day, Craig McDean, David Bailey, David Sims, David Slijper, Derek Kettela, Elaine Constantine, Ellen Von Unwerth, Emma Summerton, Erik Torstensson, Glen Luchford, Hedi Slimane, Inez and Vinoodh, Irving Penn, Javier Vallhonrat, Johnny Dufort, Juergen Teller, Jem Mitchell, Josh Olins, Karl Lagerfeld, Lachlan Bailey, Liz Collins, Marcus Ohlsson, Mario Sorrenti, Mario Testino, Mert & Marcus, Mikael Jansson, Mikael Schulz, Miles Aldridge, Morelli Brothers, Jean-Baptiste Mondino, Jem Mitchell, Josh Shinner, Juergen Teller, Nadine Ijewere, Nick Knight, Paolo Roversi, Patrick Demarchelier, Paul Wetherell, Peter Lindbergh, Phil Poynter, Regan Cameron, Robin Derrick, Richard Avedon, Richard Burbridge, Sean Ellis, Sharif Hamza, Simon Emmett, Sølve Sundsbø, Terry Richardson, Tim Walker, Tom Ford, Tom Munro, Vincent Peters, Willy Vanderperre, Viviane SassenEditorialAnother, Another Man, Chaos, CR Fashion Book, Dazed, Elle, Evening Standard, Garage, Glamour (UK,US), GQ, Harper's Bazaar (UK,US), i-D, Interview, Love, Madame Figaro, Marie Claire, Numero, Ponystep, POP, Porter, Showstudio.com, The Edit, Vanity Fair, V Magazine, V Man, Visionaire, Vogue (Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, British, US), W MagazineAdvertising / PRAlberta Ferretti, Angelo Marani, Aquascutum, BaByliss, Barrie Knitwear, Blumarine, Bottega Veneta, Brioni, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Chanel, Chloé, Christian Dior, Clinique, David Morris, Dior Homme, DKNY, Dolce & Gabbana, Estée Lauder, Etro, Equipment, Fendi, Gap, GHD, Givenchy, Giorgio Armani, Gucci, Hogan, Huawei Watches, Jean Paul Gaultier, Jimmy Choo, Jo Malone, Joop, Joseph, Just Cavalli, Kurt Geiger, Lancôme, Liu-Jo, Louis Vuitton, L'Oréal, Mac Cosmetics, Mango, Marni, Massimo Dutti, Max Factor, Michael Kors, Montblanc, Mulberry, Nina Ricci, Patrick Cox, Philosophy, Pirelli, Pantene, Pollini, Ralph Lauren, Reserved, Revlon, Rimmel, Roberto Cavalli, RMK Cosmetics, Salvatore Ferragamo, Shiseido, Sportmax, Stella McCartney, Stuart Weitzman, Swarovski, Tods, Tom Ford, Tommy Hilfiger, Topshop, Ungaro, Uniqlo, Versace, Vivienne Westwood, Yves Saint Laurent, Z ZegnaCelebritiesAlexa Chung, Alicia Vikander, Amanda Seyfried, Anne Hathaway, Audrey Tautou, Bella Hadid, Cara Delevingne, Carey Mulligan, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, Cate Blanchett, Cindy Crawford, Claire Foy, Clara Paget, Claudia Schiffer, Cora Corre, Diana Princess of Wales, Diane Kruger, Drew Barrymore, Ellie Bamber, Élodie Bouchez, Emilia Clarke, Emma Corrin, Emma Watson, Eva Green, Evan Rachel Wood, Florence Welch, Georgia May Jagger, Geraldine Chaplin, Gigi Hadid, Gisele Bündchen, Hailey Baldwin, Helena Bonham Carter, Helena Christensen, Hilary Swank, Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Bosworth, Kate Moss, Kate Winslet, Kendall Jenner, Keira Knightley, Kim Basinger, Kim Kardashian West, Kirsten Dunst, Kristen Stewart, Kristin Scott Thomas, Kaia Gerber, Kylie Minogue, Laetitia Casta, Lady Gaga, Lara Stone, Lauren Bacall, Léa Seydoux, Lennon Gallagher, Lily Cole, Lily Collins, Lily Donaldson, Lily-Rose Depp, Linda Evangelista, Liv Tyler, Lou Doillon, Madonna, Maggie Cheung, Marion Cotillard, Margot Robbie, Marine Vacth, Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen, Michelle Williams, Milla Jovovich, Monica Bellucci, Naomi Campbell, Naomi Scott, Naomi Watts, Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz, Pharrell Williams, Rafferty Law, Riley Keough, Rita Ora, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sharon Stone, Sienna Miller, Suki Waterhouse, Taylor Swift, Tilda Swinton, Uma Thurman, Vanessa Paradis, Winnie HarlowFashion ShowsAlberta Ferretti, Alexandre Vauthier, Anna Molinari, Antonio Berardi, Anya Hindmarch, Ashish, Asprey, Aquascutum, Bally, Balmain, Blugirl, Blumarine, Brioni, Burberry, Carolina Herrera, Chanel, Chloé, DKNY, Dolce & Gabbana, Dries Van Noten, DSquared2, Emporio Armani, Etro, Fendi, Gareth Pugh, Gianfranco Ferre, Giorgio Armani, Halpern, Iceberg, Isabel Marant, Jasper Conran, Jill Stuart, Julien Macdonald, Krizia, La Perla, Lancetti, Margaret Howell, Marios Schwab, Mary Katrantzou, Matthew Williamson, Max Mara, Micheal Halpern, Miu Miu, Monot, Moschino, Moschino Cheap & Chic, Mulberry, Nicholas Kirkwood, Nicole Farhi, Oscar de la Renta, Paul Smith, Philosophy, Ports 1961, Prada, Pringle, Ralph Lauren, Ralph & Russo, Roberto Cavalli, Roland Mouret, Ryan Lo, Salvatore Ferragamo, Sonia Rykiel, Sportmax, Thierry Mugler, Tom Ford, Topshop, Trussardi, Ungaro, Valentino, Vivienne Westwood, 16ArlingtonBio : http://www.premierhairandmakeup.com/hair/1-sam-mcknight/bio/Haircuts4Homeless : https://www.haircuts4homeless.com/Produced by : https://svnty6production.com/Artwork by : https://www.dvsyart.com/Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/hear-me-see-me.

Er wollte mit ein paar Zigarren rüber zum berühmten Nachbarn und kaum geht die Haustür auf, fällt ihm auch schon der halbe Hausstand entgegen. So verrumpelt ist das Promihaus der Stars ja nicht mal nach einem Schrottwichtelabend mit den Ludolfs. Wir wollen hier natürlich noch nicht verraten, wem die Wimmel-Villa gehörte, nur so viel: Unter dem Anzug von Brioni trägt James Bond den Anzug von Jogging.

Episode Summary:In this episode we meet fashion designer Francesca Liberatore, who shares with us her vision on reimagining the world of fashion. She is a firm believer that fashion can be a a platform for positive social good and we have to rethink the way we manufacture and consume fundamentally. Francesca speaks to us about creating new paths which are more considerate for humanity and the environment, eventually slowing down the 'bad habits' of brands and consumers on a global scale. How can Fashion be more ethical? Why do we need to rethink our relationship with our clothes? Why does Sustainable Fashion matter? What are the near-future solutions for the design sector in a post-pandemic world? *In collaboration with MdA Design Agency, this episode is dedicated to the dilemma of multiculturalism in relation to the current global isolation. The Speaker:Francesca Liberatore is an Italian fashion designer, whose creations have been showcased during New York Fashion Week and Milan Fashion Week. Immediately after graduating from Central Saint Martins, she makes her first steps into the industry at Viktor&Rolf, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Brioni ; later on stepping out on her own and winning the prestigious Next Generation Award (2009) with her namesake label. Transcending the borders of pure aesthetics, her artistic practice implements sustainable methods and concepts that provoke our critical thinking about present pressing issues of our time. Meanwhile designing, she has been passing her knowledge as a teacher at the Accademia di Belle Arti and NABA in Milan and Marist College in New York, as well actively being involved with UNIDO, United Nations.

Eric Yang started Gear Patrol as a side hustle to his job at CBS because the publications he knew we missing the mark when it came to product coverage. "The men's magazines out there -- GQ, Esquire -- they were increasingly unrelatable to me," Yang said on this week's episode of the Digiday Podcast. "For me it wasn't about a Brioni suit and living your best lifestyle in New York. I had my own personal interests, and that for me crossed over between automotive and tech, and you had magazines that were just really focused on bro culture in men." That was in 2007. A few years later as Gear Patrol took off, Yang and his colleague Ben Bowers quit their jobs at CBS to dedicate themselves to the site full-time. They've since announced a minority stake investment from Hearst (last April), launched a print magazine and e-commerce efforts and landed about 5.5 million unique visitors in what was recently their "best month ever," in Yang's estimation. "We've been profitable every single year at Gear Patrol except for the year we took investment because we were growing," Yang said. He adds that about 40 to 50% of their traffic comes from SEO, not social media or other sources. "It's a lot of direct traffic, and the direct traffic is actually growing, for us." Yang talked about when he decided to leave CBS and make growing Gear Patrol his full-time job, the thin line between media and commerce companies and how the website's reluctance to depend on social media turned out to be a smart move.

To close Season One, Aleks sits down with Gianluca Migliarotti, filmmaker, petrolhead and co-founder of Pommella Napoli.A proud Neapolitan, and a creative spirit, Gianluca tells Aleks how he grew up immersed in Naples’ tailoring culture, how he fell in love with Pommella Napoli’s bespoke trousers and took the business on two years ago. He also waxes lyrical on his love of 1960s and ‘70s supercar design, where he thinks design brands make mistakes in a crowded market, and explains his passion for filmmaking. Gianluca has created a number of documentaries on Italian tailoring, craft and menswear, including O’Mast, and The Colours of Antonio.Thank you very much indeed for your support over the course of our debut season, and we’ll see you again for the launch of Season Two in the next couple of months.---HandCut Radio is produced in collaboration with Birch, a London and New York based creative agency.

Český ústavný súd sa postaral o to, aby sme sa aj my na Slovensku rozprávali o slobode v podnikaní. Ostravský hotel Brioni odmietal ubytovávať Rusov, pokiaľ písomne nevyjadria nesúhlas s ruskou okupáciou Krymu. Ústavný súd uznal, že v tomto prípade nešlo o diskrimináciu, ale len o vyjadrenie názoru. Podnikanie je činnosť, ktorej sa darí hlavne v slobodnom svete. S tým sa ale spája aj veľká zodpovednosť a schopnosť bojovať s nebezpečnými antidemokratickými hrozbami. Ako v tomto ekosystéme fungujú firmy? Aký podiel na spoločenskej zmene nesú podnikatelia? O tom sa budeme rozprávať s prezidentom Združenia podnikateľov Slovenska Jánom Oravcom. Index je týždenný podcast denníka SME s moderátormi Nikolou Bajánovou a Adamom Valčekom.

Francois-Henri Pinault är en av modebranschen allra mäktigaste män. Det är nämligen han som chefar över lyxkonglomeratet Kering, som rymmer ett tjugotal av modebranschens mest exklusiva märken. På senare tid har Francois-Henri Pinault seglat fram som en av branschens good guys, en framsynt man som månar om både miljö och kvinnors rättigheter, och som kammar hem olika utmärkelser för just de sakerna. Förra året, 2015, blev han även utnämnd till Newsmaker of the year årets nyhetsskapare av modebranschtidningen Womens Wear Daily. Men Francois-Henri Pinault har förstås även hårda nypor när det så krävs. Lyxkonglomeratet Kering rymmer några av modebranschens mest exklusiva märken, som Bottega Veneta, Alexander McQueen, Balenciaga, Brioni, Stella McCartney, Saint Laurent och, inte minst, Gucci. Det är Kerings allra största, och viktigaste, modemärke. Francois-Henri Pinault beskriver det själv som företagets ryggrad. Men så är det förvärvandet av det italienska modehuset som lagt grunden till hela detta konglomerat av lyxmärken. 1999 skaffade de sig nämligen kontroll över märket i en omskriven maktkamp med Frankrikes allra största lyxkonglomerat LVMH, som styrs av Frankrikes rikaste man, Bernard Arnault. Kering är inte lika stort som konkurrenten LVMH, men det knaprar in. Och framför allt lägger det sig vinn om att ligga i framkant när det gäller värden som hållbarhet, och kvinnors rättigheter. En självklarhet eftersom sextio procent av Kerings alla anställda och åttio procent av kunderna är kvinnor, menar Francois-Henri Pinault som ofta tackar sin fru, skådespelerskan Salma Hayek, för hennes vägledande inspiration. I veckans program berättar vi mer om Francois-Henri Pinault. Vi tar även en närmare titt på hans fru, Salma Hayek. Vi undersöker också fenomenet med att rea ut kläder - är det något som är på väg att försvinna? Och så träffar vi en nykomling i den svenska modevärlden, Louise Körner. Veckans gäst är Naomi Itkes, stylist, redaktör och konsult i modebranschen.
Brioni är ett italienskt herrmodemärke som startades i ett krigshärjat Rom vid andra världskrigets slut, men som sedan dess växt till ett internationellt lyxmärke som favoriseras av män med makt. Både James Bond och Rysslands president Vladimir Putin är fans av modehusets eleganta kostymer av ganska konservativt snitt. Men det var inte så det började, tvärtom, faktiskt. I veckans STIL nystar vi upp kostymtrådarna till detta 70-åriga företag och berättar om hur det lade grunden ett nytt, och ledigare, kostymmode för män, den så kallade italienska stilen.Det var en ny stil som fick Rom att bli en konkurrent till både Paris och London ifråga om mode, och USA att bli dess största fan. Tidningen Life beskrev till exempel märket Brioni som ett Dior för män. New York Times hakade på och skrev att Brioni erbjuder män en New Look, det vill säga en stil som skakade om marknaden på liknade vis som Christian Dior hade gjort med sina damkläder några år tidigare. I samma veva rustades den italienska huvudstaden upp och blev till ett slags levande showroom för det nya modet. Amerikanska filmstjärnor reste dit, på både semester och jobb. Filmer som Roman Holiday, (Prinsessa på vift på svenska) där Audrey Hepburn och Gregory Peck visar upp staden, klädda i det senaste modet, gav ett extra uppsving. En film lived, loved and filmed in Rome, som det står i trailern. Männen bakom märket Brioni skräddaren Nazzareno Fonticoli och entreprenören Gaetano Savini fattade båda vart trendvinden blåste. De såg noga till att media dokumenterade dåtidens kända manliga skådespelare när de ekiperade sig i deras butik, och de var många. Brioni bröt även ny mark när det gällde modevisningar. Märket blev första med manliga mannekänger. Störst intryck gjorde Angelo Vittucci som blev den förste mannen att själv gå längs en catwalk för att visa upp kläder. Eller gå och gå. Han liksom gled fram i ett dussintal olika outfits samtidigt som han kastade slängkyssar, skrattade och stannade till för att skaka händer med journalister och inköpare. I veckans program har vi träffat en av dagens manliga modeller, som utgör exempel på en annan, men mycket samtida, look den maskuline skäggmannen. Vi berättar också varifrån namnet Brioni egentligen kommer och vad det representerar (ledtrådar: lyx och djur). Och så har vi undersökt skrivstilens status idag. Inte minst har vi träffat den svenska designduon Saman Amel och Dag Granath, som grundat kostymateljén Saman Amel. Ett märke som inspirerats av bland annat Brioni. Veckans gäst är Lalle Johnsson, stylist och modekonsult i herrkläder.
Två veckor före de Olympiska vinterspelen i Sotji i Ryssland ska vi syna den ryska presidenten Vladimir Putin (1952 -) i sömmarna. Hans machostil har fått - och får fortfarande - många utanför Ryssland att fnissa åt det överdrivet maskulina ideal som han strävar efter att gestalta. Han framställer sig gärna som ett sportigt muskelknippe som flyger jetplan, kör motorcykel, rattar racerbilar, simmar i iskalla floder, behärskar judo och inte tvekar att handskas med vilda tigrar eller rida barbröstad i Sibirien. Alltid med ett pokerfejs. Men det har varit en hit i Ryssland. Varför, det berättar vi mer om i veckans STIL. Vladimir Putin är Rysslands mest populäre politiker, även om det idag har börjat mullra mer och mer bland unga och välutbildade ryssar som inte delar hans alltmer totalitära syn på hur landet ska styras. Bland dem är de officiella stil-bilderna på Putin väldigt tacksamma att driva med. På nätet vimlar det av nidbilder och karikatyrer. Idag har han tonat ned de tydligaste machomarkörerna till förmån för en mer sobert städad och statsmannalik stil i kostym. De är ofta från det exklusiva märket Brioni, för övrigt. Klockorna kring hans handled har blivit allt mer exklusiva. Tre miljoner kronor har värdet på en av dem uppskattats till. Men på det stora hela har Vladimir Putin prickat helt rätt när det gäller att med sin stil lyfta fram egenskaper som uppskattas i ett land som – efter en tid den gamle och hårt drickande presidenten Boris Jeltsin – längtade efter en ung, stark och sportig ledare som såg ut att veta vad han ville. Många utanför Ryssland betraktar emellertid den ryska stilen, rent generellt, som lite för mycket. Vi berättar mer om den stereotypa bilden av den rysktalande kvinnan som ”importerad brud” eller ”prostituerad” och vilka konsekvenser den får för kvinnor som valt att leva i väst. Vi har också tittat närmre på de ryska mode- och underhållningskretsarna. De har ofta har fungerat (där, som här) som en sorts frizon för normbrytande och gränsöverskridande när det gäller kön och sexualitet. Så frågan är vad som händer med den frizonen, i och med de nya antigay-lagarna i Ryssland? Och så har vi tagit en titt på björnar. Stora, lurviga och härliga varelser. Veckans gäst är Elisabeth Hedborg, journalist som varit stationerad i Moskva och är specialist på Ryssland.
Italien är fullt av modemärken som blivit världsberömda - Pucci, Gucci, Fendi, Missoni, Armani, Versace, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, och många fler än så. Men hur gick denna, förhållandevis snabba, resa mot den moderna modetoppen till? Det ska vi undersöka i STIL som under ett par veckor sätter Italien i fokus. Vi har varit i Milano och Venedig där vi besökt tygpalats och träffat modeskapare, skomakare, smyckesdesigners och formgivare av modetidningar. Mode i sig är förstås inget nytt för Italien. Italien har sedan länge, ända sedan medeltiden, varit en högt ansedd producent av exklusiva textilier. Brokad av siden och sammet från Italien har använts till möbler, inredning – och till kläder – under flera hundra år. Och under renässansen låg Italien på den absoluta trendtoppen när det gällde stil. Men när det gäller modernt mode är Italien en nykomling. Det var faktiskt först under 1950-talet som Italien började konkurrera med Frankrike och Paris om att skapa trendsättande plagg, i samtida bemärkelse. Efter andra världskriget genomgick Italien nämligen ett sällan skådat ekonomiskt uppsving, ”det italienska ekonomiska miraklet”, som förändrade landet – och synen på det. Borta var det krigshärjade landet, styrt av den hårdföre fascisten Benito Mussolini. Istället dök ett modernt Italien upp. Ett blommande välmående land där alla verkade knattra fram på eleganta Vespor och i behändiga Fiatbilar. Man drack espresso, bryggt i blanka kaffemaskiner från Gaggia och skrev på smarta skrivmaskiner från Olivetti. Italienare verkade kunna njuta av livet på ett avundsvärt sätt. Snyggt klädda var de, dessutom. Både kvinnor och män, vars bekväma kostymer från Brioni blev trendsättande. Italien, och italiensk stil i största allmänhet, blev något åtråvärt. USA blev en hängiven beundrare, och stor och viktig ekonomisk supporter, av det italienska modet. ”The Italian Style” låg helt i linje med det ledigare mode som hade börjat utvecklas i USA under kriget, då influenser från Paris var begränsade. Internationella filmstjärnor flockades i Rom, som blev en glamorös turistdestination och ”Made in Italy” blev en sorts kvalitetsstämpel som senare skulle komma att gynna nya modemärken som Armani och Versace som växte fram i Milano under 1970- och 80-talet. Mer om Italien som modeland berättar vi veckans program. Där får vi även möta Emanuele Castellini som driver det exklusiva textilföretaget (och familjeföretaget) C&C Milano. Han var med när Milano började blomma upp som modestad i början av 70-talet. Vi har även träffat Alessia Xoccato, en modeskapare som bor och verkar i Milano och som just nu arbetar på sin femte kollektion. Italienska Vogue har lyft fram henne som ett framtida löfte. Men dagens ekonomiska klimat är väsentligt kärvare än förr, och det är inte lätt att ta sig fram i modebranschen. Och så har vi talat om den italienska kvinnan med modeillustratören Liselotte Watkins, som är bosatt i Milano. Är det bara plutläppade velinas i stringtrosor som gäller idag? Veckans gäst är Marcus Söder, modechef på Bon och frilansstylist.
