Conduct of fashion show By, THEEPIKA.K.P-19PTF022 WHAT IS FASHION SHOW? Fashion shows are a channel of communication between fashion designers and customers where designers showcase new ideas through merchandise on live models. INFLUENCE OF FASHION SHOWS: • Apparel manufacturers need a platform to promote products to the target audience. • Fashion shows play a vital role in marketing clothes and conveying recent fashion trends. • Nothing is constant in fashion. Designs and styles keep changing. • Fashion shows help in creating interest among the public to spread awareness about new arrivals in design and style. INFLUENCES OF FASHION SHOW Fashion designers forecast trends. They attend trade shows or visit manufacturers to select fabrics and trims. Designers conduct fittings and adjustments on samples of their designs and the end product is marketed to clothing retailers. Fashion designers aim at inspiring the target audience to purchase the products. Through these shows, fashion designers can express their creative skills and talent in designing various types of clothes. The individual talent of designers is exposed and they get an opportunity to promote their creations. By involving themselves in these shows, retailers can gain various views of different designs and styles of clothes from designer shows. The knowledge gained from these shows helps retailers incorporate ideas into their boutiques. Using latest fashion software tools, designers can put designs on three dimensional images. Impacts: Everyone likes to track everyday fashion. Fashion gives designers a chance to be independent in ideas. It boosts confidence in the wearer. Fashion is a form of expression for both the creator and the wearer. It helps people of similar aesthetics to bond. Print and electronic media have helped the spread of fashion by showcasing the fashion statement of celebrities. They also cover fashion shows and their coverage reaches the target buyer. Once the design is followed by customers, it becomes fashion. Fashion shows not only market products to the target buyer but also target fashion journalists and apparel manufacturers. Most fashion shows aim at buyers from department stores, major markets, fashion journalists and wholesalers. Apparel manufacturers get inspired from the photographs and videos of fashion shows to produce affordable clothes. 10 steps involved in the conduct of the fashion show: 1.Find a VENUE & THEME Great places to have fashion shows would include anywhere from a school's auditorium (with permission from administrators), to an outside fabric tent.
