Panel ArtPoint Fashion and Party

The way people consume fashion was organized on the minds of the participants in an event ArtPoint recently, the young professionals arm of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. A round table on the designer Jean Paul Gaultier and his relationship to the world of photography, music and film, which was held at Project One Gallery, rounded to an evening of cocktails and provocative paintings by local artist Nick Flatt. A discussion of Gaultier and pop culture would be incomplete without the mention of Madonna and the infamous conical bra made designer for her 1990 "Blonde Ambition" tour. For the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco and the panel moderator Conservative Jill D'Alessandro, curator Gaultier, it symbolizes the moment when fashion moved into a new sphere. "Madonna in 1990, he was asked to review a collection of 1984. This trifecta of fashion, pop culture and music that captured the moment. It was a defining moment in her career .... I watched his interview with Lady Gaga and the narrator said Gaga used to further his career. She also talked about how she is with fashion, to free himself, and I think his lasting impact. I think he has presented fashion, so that his teachings are still important are. " Panelists Jodi Nakatsuka, director of photography for the magazine and editor of 7x7 picture above for Harper's Bazaar, spoke about the 90 years since the days when fashion has really made his own. "With Madonna, Jean Paul Gaultier, Jean-Baptiste Mondino, all people in the 90, it was a big change in philosophy, this was about. It was not just to be nice. It was really, literally, to express themselves through . " Annie Wilson, founder of Poetic & Chic and co-founder of fashion in San Francisco Film Festival, noticed how transparent Gaultier's vision integrated into other genres. "In the movie, it's really good, with directors who have a distinct visual style, yet it is symbiotic work - he is his unique style to bring to the director and not perish." Noting her work with Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Peter Greenaway as examples dreamed Wilson of the idea of ??a Gaultier collaboration with director Wes Anderson. The future of fashion was also a hot topic, with the closure D'Alessandro in the night, explaining that the "decade of men's fashion." Panelists and local fashion designer Bacca da Silva warned the public the danger of designing with bad intentions, "If you're in fashion, just because you want to be commercial, then fashion is dead."
