Week 5 EOC: This is What has my Interest

The article that interests me the most right now was, " Marc Jacobs: I Have The Word Shameless Tattooed to my Chest" It was an eye opening one on one with Marc Jacobs as he discusses the struggles of maintaining a growing brand that is still relevant.  It highlights his can-do attitude ans shows the dedication it takes into making a successful clothing brand.  It was a relate-able article that takes a fashion legend and shows that everyone struggles to get there even the greats. 

The second article that interests me most right now,"What 3D Printing Means for Fashion" captures my interest because as we move into the new age of technology, we are also able to progress our understanding of what fashion can be and look like. For example, as the article demonstrates the use of 3d printing is bring use in the fashion industry to develop forms and garments we could only ever dream of. It allows us to expand our understanding of how garment can look, flow, even feel. 

Finally the third article that grabbed my attention most was, "India’s fashion industry finally gets real about how Indians look." Captivating article that discusses the rising fashion industry of India and how they are innovating their business model to better match the needs of their  consumers.  They have not let media control the size of models that they use on the runway, plus size models will walk in shows that are not "Pus Size" but in shows that will be casted with REAL women's bodies in mind.  Definitely a fresh perspective that the fashion world needs to open up to more.  India is seeing booming results as now more women feel like they are embodying the brand that they are wearing.
