Making True Love Last: Woolite Joins Fashion Week With Debut Pop-Up

August 30, 2012

NEW YORK, Aug. 30, 2012 — This fall, Woolite® will embark on one of the boldest campaigns that the laundry detergent category has ever seen by debuting its new look during New York Fashion Week. On September 6th, the iconic brand steps out of the laundry room and onto the streets of SoHo’s chic shopping district with the opening of its very own boutique, featuring the latest, everyday fashions. True to the brand’s campaign slogan, “WooliteWashed. Clothes look like new, longer”, each item showcased will be washed in Woolite® so that consumers can experience firsthand and be amazed by the brand’s product benefits.

The brand is dovetailing a focus on its machine wash detergents (Everyday Care and Darks), which have a special formula to help protect clothes by not causing fading, shrinking and stretching, with a fall-launching media campaign. The personal, story-telling narrative behind the new WooliteWashed advertising will be infused into the boutique via interactive elements and social media initiatives, to reinforce the importance of the brand’s clothing preservation mantra, “Make True Love Last.”
Designed by up-and-coming interior designer, Kyle Schuneman, the boutique reflects creatively woven elements of the past with the present in a modern, clean, and fresh way to mirror the brand’s campaign. By turning the product into an experience, Schuneman emphasizes using all five senses to engage in the WooliteWashed concept.
Consumers will be able to purchase limited-edition garments and accessories, also pre-washed in Woolite, from five notable designers – Dannijo, Felix Rey, LNA, Laundry by Shelli Segal, and Timo Weiland. Items will retail from $28-$60, and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Save the Children, a non-profit creating lasting change in the lives of children in need in the United States and around the world.

Debenhams Reveals Shopping Gene Exists Through Nurture Not Nature

July 14, 2011

LONDON, July 14, 2011 –

Debenhams has revealed that the reason why women shop so much is down to nurture as opposed to nature, as women are taught to shop so much by their own mothers.
Debenhams commissioned a study into the shopping gene following sales figures showing that baby girls’ clothing is out selling clothes for baby boys by a colossal 20%.
Research shows that by the time children reach the age of four, infant girls have a fifth more clothes than are possessed by a boy of similar age. This figure does not include the likes of Victoria Beckham who will have at least double this amount for her new born baby girl Harper Seven.
David Beckham has recently admitted that he is scared that his house will turn entirely pink following the arrival of his new baby daughter.
Since mothers do most of the clothes shopping for their children, this must mean that they instinctively instill a much greater need for clothes in young girls from a very young age.
This suggests that women are not born with the shopping gene but are brought up that way through years of exposure to high levels of fashion and shopping. Other mums who are sure to already have extensive wardrobes for their daughters include Abbey Clancy, Holly Willoughby and Pink.
The sales results have been interpreted for Debenhams by one of Britain’s leading psychologists.
“Human society puts a great deal of emphasis on female appearance and this will inevitably result in more clothes being purchased for girls than boys,” said Dr. Karen J. Pine, professor of developmental psychology, University of Hertfordshire.
“Parents encourage the importance of clothes through leisure activities such as shopping and play that involves dressing up.
“Whilst Dads are taking their sons out for football matches, women are taking their little girls shopping and encouraging them to take more of an interest in fashion.
“However in the animal world this pattern reverses, for example, in lions, ducks and peacocks, it’s the males who have more adornments, and the females who are plain.”
Ed Watson, Debenhams’ head of PR, added: “We aim to cater equally for baby boys and baby girls but it looks like the mums the word on this one and the boys aren’t even getting a look in.”
This clearly proves that the shopping gene is nurture and not nature. Mothers are literally turning their daughters into mini-me’s by providing them with many more clothes than they give to their sons.
About Debenhams:
Debenhams is a leading department stores group with a strong presence in key product categories including womenswear, mens fashion, kids’ shoes, kids’ designer wear, home and health and beauty.
Debenhams is the second largest department store chain in the UK.

Jose Duran Spring 2011 Collection

September 15, 2010

Is Jose Duran ready for primetime? Is he the next (insert major designer here)? Not quite yet, though that’s not to say it won’t happen, it will. Duran shows flashes of brilliance challenging normal conventions of design. He constructed a collection of solid monotone colors with a red thrown in here or there. The collection was decidedly dark and different compared to what one would normally find at a conventional New York fashion show. Highlights of the collection include an asymmetrical crimson single shoulder strap dress, an intelligently sexy trench dress cut to nearly mid-chest with pockets placed on the sleeve and elsewhere. Is Jose Duran an artist or a designer? Some would say the two are not mutually exclusive. In Duran’s case his Spring 2011 collection demonstrates that he is more an artist with the intentions of a designer. Maybe the two can remain mutually exclusive, but in Duran’s case his collection will be wonderfully complete when he can meld the two.

Ports 1961 Spring 2011 Collection

September 15, 2010

Going to a Ports 1961 show is an experiment in pushing the limits of claustrophobia in wide open spaces. Onlookers at the show were nearly hanging off the seams of the tent because there was literally no room in the large space. This may be a testament to the popularity of the brand and it is with good reason. Fiona Cibani put on a display at the Ports show that illustrated the positive evolution of the collection. There’s growth here. Past collections demonstrated the ability to come up with new themes and present entirely different items. This season’s collection may have a new theme for the Ports 1961 collection but it is firmly rooted in established fashion. Using muted colors like dune/beige, ivory, gray juxtaposed against a flash of brilliance in with brighter colors like sap green, violet and azure, Cibani captured the look of a season without destroying conventions of fashion. She may have merely manipulated them to good effect. Standouts of the collection include the Dune Utilitarian Jacket, Amethyst sculptured dress and the Pyrite mineral dress.

Something in this collection will find it’s way into the wardrobe of discerning fashion tastes. With a strong presentation such as this one there’s no reason to wonder why.
