STYLE STAR: CUTTING A LONG STORY SHORT.
June 17, 2010
BEVERLY HILLS, 16 June 2010: At the 2010 Financial Times Business of Luxury Conference, Marissa Mayer (Vice President, Search Products & User Experience, Google Inc.) and Dov Charney (Founder & Chief Executive Officer, American Apparel) singled out Madonna’s career as a model luxury brands should follow, citing her ability to maintain a strong core identity while constantly reinventing herself. Leonard A. Lauder (Chairman Emeritus, Estée Lauder Companies Inc.) put his own spin on how to achieve career success, saying “the key thing is this: You start high and you stay high. You start low and stay low.”
Debate on the role of digital media in the luxury industry was also lively, with Robert A. Iger (President & CEO, The Walt Disney Company) asserting that traditional marketing has been “eviscerated” by digital forms, while Jean-Christophe Bédos (President & CEO, Boucheron) contended that brands should “rethink their preconceptions that the internet necessarily equals a mass market. It’s like a city full of streets, and some are high streets and some are luxury destinations.” Marissa Mayer offered further advice to digital architects, saying that luxury websites should be orchestrated for a simpler and faster experience by employing “less flash” and automatically defaulting to the “view all” option when revealing search results.
Lionel Barber, editor of the Financial Times, chaired the Summit, which convened over 350 senior luxury, media and entertainment executives, consultants, brand experts, fund managers and securities and retail analysts from around the globe.
The theme of the conference was “The Medium and the Message,” providing exclusive and inspired insight from industry leaders around the world on how the global luxury sector should adapt communications strategies in an era of social media, as well as the general challenges the luxury and entertainment industries face amid a shift in the traditional consumer’s buying habits.
Other distinguished speakers included Bryan Lourd (Managing Partner, Creative Artists Agency), Tom Murry (President & CEO, Calvin Klein Inc.), Diane von Furstenberg (CEO & Founder, DVF Studio and President, CFDA), Jonathan Newhouse (Chairman, Condé Nast International), Tamara Mellon (Founder & Chief Creative Officer, Jimmy Choo), Sebastian Suhl (COO, Prada Group) and Tim Murphy (Chief Product Officer, MasterCard Worldwide), who unveiled MasterCard’s new logo premium brand mark during his presentation at the Summit.

Da stilisti a celebrities. Dietro la cinepresa. Corti su piu’ Media.
di Vanna Assumma.
Creatori di moda protagonisti sul grande schermo con mega-produzioni oppure dietro la cinepresa, alle prese con la regia e con il finanziamento di movie dal grande incasso: e’ solo narcisismo autoreferenziale o una precisa strategia di comunicazione?

“Il corto consente un approccio facile e di gran fascino sui new media, mentre le sfilate non sono adattabili a Internet o ai cellulari”, spiega Marina Garzoni, fondatrice del progetto STYLE STAR dedicato al connubio tra moda, cinema e tecnologia.
