Fashion comes home: Kenzo Takada reinvents the Mah Jong sofa for Roche Bobois

The career path between fashion and furnishings is as well trodden as a Paris catwalk.

Many couture designers have dabbled in homeware, from Pierre Cardin to Alessandro Michele, who launches Gucci Decor globally next month. Not forgetting those perma-tanned superstars who have built entire lifestyle empires, allowing you to both wear and live the look: think Ralph Lauren, Giorgio Armani and the late Gianni Versace.

But Kenzo Takada left the relentless pace of handbags and gladrags behind in 1999 when he retired from the global house of fashion, fragrance and beauty that he founded, to paint full time. Speaking to him over the phone from his Saint-Germain apartment in Paris, he says he’s happy to have left the sartorial frenzy behind.

“I will always love fashion and follow it, but it’s tough and I did it for years. Today you need gigantic teams and it’s a very hardcore way of working. It’s an intense life. I don’t want to create new collections anymore, I’m too old!” he says.

However, French furniture brand Roche Bobois has lured him out of retirement to design a range of fabrics for their bestselling Mah Jong sofa, which was designed by Hans Hopfer in 1971 – a year after Takada started Kenzo.

“I like that we both started then and I liked the idea of bringing modernity to the sofa,” he says. “It still feels very contemporary today. My designs are inspired by ancient kimonos worn for traditional Noh theatre. They have very floral and graphic patterns that I’ve revisited and remodelled to apply to something you can have at home.”

Takada follows in the footsteps of other fashion talents Jean-Paul Gaultier and Sonia Rykiel (who died last August, aged 86), both of whom have previously revamped the modular sofa in previous years. The Kenzo-founder handpainted his designs in gouache, because he says it “brings more depth” – nor does he trust computers. His assistant transferred the to a digital format and then passed them to the team at Roche Bobois, who transformed them into jacquard.

There are three “dawn to dusk” colour schemes: Asa (morning), composed of gentle pastel tones; Hiru (midday), dominated by deeper rich reds; and Yoru (evening), a symphony of blues – the idea is that customers can mix and match within each eclectic colourway.

Takada enjoyed the process so much, that he has extended the collection to include a range of richly coloured ceramics featuring motifs from the textiles, and enhanced by gold or red copper leaf. There are also an additional set of complementary scatter cushions.

“I don’t live in a minimalist home,” says the artist and designer, “I like things to bring joy and happiness. Colour is so important to introduce harmony to a home.”

White Nationalist Uniform of Polo Shirts Takes Center Stage in Charlottesville

At the horrific events in Charlottesville, Va., over the weekend, where white nationalist, neo-Nazi and Ku Klux Klan members turned the college town into a deadly ideological battleground with their racist taunts, many of the participants wore a distinctive uniform — white polo shirts and khakis.

It was jarring to see their young faces, twisted with hate, and their outfits, more Verizon customer service agent than redneck. Unlike previous generations of racists, they didn’t cover up in hoods, they were front and center for the cameras, wearing a onetime emblem of preppydom, the polo shirt, also known as the tennis or golf shirt, that has in recent years become the uniform of the everyman of any color, worn by everyone from Def Jam Recordings co-founder Russell Simmons to president Barack Obama.

In media accounts, the white polo shirt and khakis look has been described as the uniform of Vanguard America, the neo-Nazi group founded in Charlottesville that was among several hate groups protesting the city council’s decision to remove a statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee and rename Lee Park. The Southern Poverty Law Center calls it the “premier organization when it comes to street demonstrations in the alt-right.”

If you go to the organization’s website, there is a section labeled “store,” but it directs to the message, “We are currently working on our website.” One imagines the polo shirts, featuring the organization’s neo-Nazi emblems, will one day soon be for sale there — today’s version of Adolph Hitler’s brown shirts.

Hollywood imagemakers took notice of the look. Stylist Karla Welch (Justin Bieber, Lorde, Tracee Ellis Ross) Instagrammed a photo of the rally with the caption, “the face of #MAGA, aka total losers.” And stylist Jeanne Yang (who has worked with Robert Downey Jr., Matt Bomer and many other Hollywood leading men) directed me to a Vice story citing a blog post by white nationalist Andrew Anglin in the Daily Stormer schooling those heading to Charlottesville on the importance of fashion. “The core of marketing is aesthetic. We need to look appealing,” he wrote. “We have to be hip and we have to be sexy.”

White nationalists’ and neo-Nazis’ embrace of the polo speaks to the fact that that they are trying to appear mainstream, organized and well-to-do, which it seems from demographic reporting on these racists, they are. Many of them are college-educated and employed.

The whole ugly mess made me start thinking about the politicization of the polo shirt, and whether the style might fall out of favor among the mainstream as it becomes more strongly associated with fringe hate groups.

The pique polo shirt was first popularized by tennis player René Lacoste in the 1920s as an alternative to traditional tennis clothing he found too constricting. He put a crocodile emblem on the shirt in 1927, after the American press had started calling him “The Crocodile,” and he turned the concept into a clothing brand in the 1930s.

In the 1940s, British tennis player Fred Perry launched his own version of the tennis shirt, using a laurel wreath for a logo, based on the original symbol for Wimbledon. In recent years, alt-right group The Proud Boys, has adopted black-and-yellow Fred Perry polos as its uniform, following a tradition of the politicization of the brand that started in the 1960s, when skinheads wore polo shirts as a subversion of British elitism. The Southern Poverty Law Center includes Fred Perry in its glossary of racist skinhead terms.

Fast-forward to the 1970s when fashion designer Ralph Lauren, born Ralph Lifshitz in the Bronx, made the polo shirt (emblazoned with a polo pony) the cornerstone of his WASP (White Anglo Saxon Protestant)-aspirational lifestyle brand, which sold the idea that any American, even a Jew from the Bronx like Lifshitz, could attain an aristocratic lifestyle.

Hollywood it-girl and rising fashion and footwear entrepreneur Zendaya was feted on Tuesday in L.A. at Variety’s Power of Young Hollywood ceremony, sponsored by H&M, where she was among a group of esteemed showbiz tastemakers, including John Boyega, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Adidas collaborator Rita Ora — who was honored with the Variety + H&M Conscious Award for her philanthropic work.

The 20-year-old actress debuted her Daya by Zendaya shoe line for spring ’16 with Titan Industries, the Huntington, Calif.-based footwear licensee, sold on dayabyzendaya. In 2016, Daya by Zendaya was recognized as the Launch of the Year at the 30th annual Footwear News Achievement Awards.

Her eponymous line also includes a collection of rompers, denim, skirts, dresses, loungewear and more apparel — some of the wares modeled by women, some by men. But don’t expect to see clothing labels designated by sex.

Speaking to FN on the influence she wields as a young entertainer and businesswoman, Zendaya said that she makes it a point to not list gender on her brand, and includes imagery of both sexes wearing her apparel to emphasize a message of inclusivity and freedom of expression.

“It’s all about the experience — when people go online and they are shopping I don’t want them to feel excluded or feel like they’ve been put in a box or a label,” the “Spider-Man: Homecoming” actress explained. “Why would I tell somebody that they can’t wear a shirt or dress just because of a label on a tag? Wear whatever the heck you want — wear what makes you feel good. I’m providing the clothing and you do what you want with it.”

To help with the differences in clothing sizing, the website lists a breakdown on how to convert measurements for body proportions.

The non-gender binary ethos even extends to shoes, and she added that she’s “absolutely” open to including unisex styles in her line. “I think that’s the future of fashion and retail — just letting people choose for themselves,” she said. “It’s a beautiful thing and I want to do what I can to be a part of it.”

Zendaya arrived at the soiree wearing a sparkling Vivetta jacket and matching trousers with nude sandals by Ruthie Davis.

This Fashion Show Gets Criticized for Featuring Plus Size Models

Sports Illustrated Swimsuit launched their first ever swimwear line designed for every woman during Miami Swim Week. In the show, women over size 18 were featured but not everyone was happy. A debate sparked in Australia when columnist of The Daily Telegraph Soraiya Fuda wrote how women over size 18 don’t belong on the runway. In her article she said, “But it seems to the women who appeared to be approaching the sizes 20-26 on the catwalk are less representative of the average woman but are representative of a big underlying societal problem.”

Dr. Brad Frankum of the Australian Medical Association agreed that having these curvy women walk the runway sends the wrong message, “If someone was walking down the catwalk smoking a cigarette there would be an outcry because that would be a very unhealthy message. Similarly if we send very overweight or obese women down the catwalk modeling clothes, whit it is saying, in a way is that we are celebrating obesity.”

The swimwear line was made for women of all shapes and sizes shares Sports Illustrated Swimsuit editor MJ Day, “The priority was fit, fashion, and size inclusivity.” Prof. John Dixon head of clinical research at Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute also think that representation is important, “With it being normal to be overweight in our community and so many­­—28 percent of Australians being obese—it is quite offensive to say that obese people should not be on a catwalk.”

Representation of all forms is important. If you’re confident in your body and you take care of it as best you can, who are we to judge? Watch these women strut their stuff and love their body during the fashion show.

When it came time for an Indianapolis teacher to choose a flower girl and ring bearer, the only kids who came to mind were her students.

That’s why Marielle Slagel Keller of Butler Lab School invited her entire class to be in her recent wedding, according to WXIN.

Indianapolis Public Schools says 20 students walked down the aisle wearing all white and carrying garland.

“They mean the world to me,” said Keller. “The kids and their families were part of the whole wedding planning process with me and gave me so much support along the way. They are a huge part of who I am and it would not have felt right to not have them there.”

The school says students took great pride in participating in their teacher’s big day. For some, it was even their first wedding.

Keller teaches a combination of kindergarten and first grade students, so some of the students will have her as a teacher again this year.

The students go back to school Monday.

When Uduak Udoh was visiting family and friends in Detroit, the last thing on her mind was dating. However, her cousin’s wife had other plans.

Attending school at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Uduak, originally from Nigeria, was far from home and had just lost her mother. Since she couldn’t go home for the funeral, she decided to visit family in Detroit.

“They wanted me to come up for a few days so I could be with family,” Uduak recalls. “My cousin’s wife is a good friend, and she asked if I was dating anybody, and said there was someone she really wanted me to meet. I was not in the mindset, though.”

She did end up meeting Ekong Bassey that weekend, though. Her cousin’s wife was persistent, she laughs, and fortunately, so was Ekong.

After that first date, Uduak didn’t plan to see Ekong again, but he convinced her otherwise. She skeptically went out with him a second time, but still didn’t think there was anything there.

“That one was actually worse than the first,” Uduak says of their second date. “But he kept pursuing me. We’d talk on the phone, and my heart really started to warm to him.”

So much so that when he popped the question on her birthday weekend in Las Vegas, she quickly said yes.

Though the couple met in Detroit, they are from the same state in Nigeria, so it was important to them to follow their country’s traditions. There would be a traditional Nigerian wedding, and then what Uduak refers to as their white wedding.

That traditional wedding would take place in their hometown in Nigeria. However, there would be two key players missing–the bride and the groom. Both were still in school getting their Ph.D.s, so they couldn’t travel. Their families took over and hosted the ceremony, which is more of a formal meeting of the two families and

an engagement.

“It’s a whole long process where you state the purpose of being there,” Uduak says of the traditional ceremony. “They did the whole traditional ceremony without us there. Our families met and talked.”

There were pictures from their engagement session on display at the ceremony, and when they hosted their white wedding one month later, their families were there to help them celebrate.

Since Uduak was finishing up school in Birmingham, they decided to have the wedding there, and she wanted it to be classic Birmingham. They chose the newly-renovated Tutwiler hotel for their ceremony and reception.

Although this was their white wedding, the couple still added some traditional Nigerian touches.

A Nigerian dance group from Atlanta provided entertainment, and as is tradition in their home country, guests showered the couple with money to celebrate their union.

The bride wore a lace mermaid dress. Instead of a long veil, she went with a short birdcage. Uduak’s bridesmaids all wore dresses in the same shade of pink, yet in different styles. The groom wore a gray tuxedo.

Uduak’s flowers were soft shades of pink and white. In memory of Uduak’s mother, the florist attached a picture of her mother to Uduak’s bouquet.

“That really almost made me cry,” she said. “It was just wonderful. It really made it feel like she was there with me.”

Though Uduak initially found it difficult to date again after the death of her mom, she knows now she was meant to meet Ekong that weekend in Detroit. The couple, now living in Springfield, Missouri, just welcomed their first baby.

Happy couples planning their weddings have been warned of scammers who offer services but then do not deliver on the big day.

The cost of a wedding is on average around £30,000, and brides and grooms are increasingly becoming targets for the fraudsters.

Couples need to be careful of legitimate businesses going bust before their wedding day, which is always a risk when booking months or even years in advance.

Take care with Caterers, reception venues and travel companies

Trading standards officials say couples should make sure photographers, caterers, reception venues, travel companies and others which take large deposits will still be there when the big day arrives, Gloucestershire Live reports.

Images: short wedding dresses online

Many of these services require booking several months in advance, with an immediate obligation to pay a deposit or even the full balance, making them fertile ground for fraudsters.

Trading standards say that, although most of the companies which run their businesses entirely via social media sites, offering a low-cost service, are genuine, couples need to be careful.

Some may not be insured and some may even be fraudulent.

‘Too good to be true’

A spokesman said: “If something appears too good to be true, it probably is.

“Always take precautions and research that the options available are genuine when spending large sums of money on services.”

Being aware of the potential risks and following the following prevention advice could minimise the likelihood of fraud

Six steps to stop you falling victim to the fraudsters

1 Obtain a physical address and contact details for the vendor and verify this information. This will allow the opportunity to make a complaint to Trading Standards or consider pursuing via the Small Claims Court.

2 Obtain a contract before paying money for services. Fully read and understand what is offered before applying a signature and note the terms of cancellation.

3 Consider purchasing wedding insurance – policies vary in cover and can be purchased up to two years in advance. They can provide protection from eventualities not covered under the Consumer Credit Act.

4 Research each vendor, ensuring they represent a bona fide person or company. Explore the internet for reviews and ratings and ask the vendor to provide details of past clients you can speak to. This course of action is recommended by trading standards officers even if companies have been proposed by a trustworthy friend or source.

5 For services such as wedding photography, beware of websites using fake images. Look for inconsistencies in style, meet the photographer and ask to view sample albums.

6 Pay by credit card. This provides protection under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act for single item purchases above £100 and below £30,000. Even if a company goes into liquidation before the big day, a refund can be claimed through the credit card company.
