THE DIFFERENCE OF FASHION AND HIGH FASHION

 Monogram /vs/ Logo


HIGH FASHION
TZAIMS LUKSUS IN PARIS
1968
When Tzaims decided to enter the Haute Couture in Paris he asked NYC PR Agent, Eleanor Lambert,  to arrange it, but she refused. 
He then asked Fashion reporter for Women's Daily, Bill Cunningham.  Bill declined, but gave him the telephone number of Paris PR Agent Percy Savage.
Savage immediately agreed charging $10,000 USD for his services which included all expenses in Paris except Hotel Crillon bill which amounted to another $10,000.
Now what did Percy do or what didn't he do?
He followed all the Traditional Paris Haute Couture protocol including proper printed invitations of everyone suitable to receive them including First Lady Madam Charles DeGaul
Tzaims created the Paris collection to
prove he could design, produce sand show a perfecty elegant haute couture.  It consisted of 40÷ garments as required as the minimum by the 
Federation Francaise de Haute Couture et la Mode
 He didn't create a rebellous insult to the world, however no one in the press especially in the US covered it and Paris press just said "Insufficient!"
Now is that gratitude for a job expertly done?
Percy gave Tzaims a copy of the huge guest list which included everyone socially and the international & Europan press
The only Press member from the US was to Eugenia Sheppard for Women's Daily.  Snubbing all others including US buyers
No one wthout an invitation could enter with high security for the wife of the President of France
At the time, and many years later, Tzaims hadn't realized why certain people didn't attend.  Most notably 
Eleanor Lambert, 
Bill Cunningham, 
Joe Eula
Eugenia was mostly blind and without Joe she was helpless
Blocking these people set the US FASHION PRESS 
into a rage blaming Tzaims, who knew nothing of this insult that John Fairchild of Women's Wear Daily, raged over by writing Eugenia Sheppard's review of the collection as a total disaster
Did Percy know blocking NYC press would sever TZAIMS from US Fashion?  Probably.  Did he also know that Pierre Berge, of Yves Saint Laurent whould block Tzaims if he didn't contine by staying in the Paris Haute Couture after realizing the great success
Probably
● 
Tzaims' collection was funded by 
Rebekka Harkness?
Had Tzaims stayed in Paris under Harkness Berge had no power over him since Tzaims had the greatest fortune in the US Backing him
But the shock of no US fashion press support alienated him from the US and Berge alienated him from Paris when Tzaims decided not to continue with Harkness
Yet Tzaims was satisfied with the great job Percy managed for him
He also was satisfied that he out shined Yves Saint Laurent
Who and what is Tzaims to fashion history and why is he so greatly feared now by Anna Wintour, Bernard Atnault and Pierre Pinault?
● 
Well Tzaims is one of only three visionary Fashion engineer revolutionaries commanding both fabric and haute couture invention and engineered sculptural construction
All the rest are copiyers, sketchers, dressmakers and/or tailors following trends they don't initiate themselves
Besides 
Tzaims Luksus
An American
the orher two are
Charles Frederick Worth
British-American
&
Charles James
British-American
Let that sink in
An English writer, probably Edward seVere, 14th Earl of Oxford, 
wrote
"All the world's a stage and everyone are actors on it,"
This is why Tzaims could walk off stage and survive the two most vicious plays he performed in
The fabric and clothing industries
Returning unscathed back into the freedom of fine art
For Tzaims it was just a tragic comedy and ended when the curtain fell
Fashion can be great fun provided one doesn't take it seriously!
😇
Let that also sink in
Now back to 

POP FASHION

First came the Monogram, the initials of a wealthy individual who had their initials embossed in gold on their clothing and luggage

● 

Wealthy people didn't buy Louis Vuitton

● 

Poot people bought Louis Vuitton luggage

Designer logo clothing is pop fashion, lasting and lingering but it isn't high fashion

A couturier and a haute couturier is not fashion or high fashion.  It is cutting, either ordinary and practical or elaborate and decorative.  A couturier is a cutter of cloth, not a designer

● 

Haute couture isn't dead.  It cannot end as long as dressmakers and tailors keep creating  ordinary bespoke and custom made clothes

Fashion Editors and Global designer house entrpreneurs are not fashionable 

● 

Anna Wintour with her never aging wig has no sense of humoir and therefore is out of fashion.  She only weilds power over designers who lust for celebrity status. She and Bernard Arnault have no real power never have been fashionable.  They are marketing manipulators

●  

Logo tee-shirts are bill board advertising  mechanisms and sports shoes are both fashionable but not high fashion

Fashion designers  may or may not create fashionable  clothing 

● 

They create  garments that have possible fashion possibilities

High prices are based on rarity, exclusivity and quailty and not on actual coast or quantity

The TZ.L LOGO WAS FIRST A MONOGRAM FOR THE INDIVUDUAL AND NOT A DESIGNER LOGO

 Fashion designers did't use logos until commercial American jews, Ralph Ljpshitz and Calvin Kline played both sides with high priced and low priced goods and creating logo tee shirts for men

Lipshitz commercialized polo shirts and Kline exploited men's elastic underwear bands and designer blue geans

●/

Both started logo tee shirts as advertising for middle priced clothing

Both wealthy and poor wore them for convenience with logo shirts replacing formal attire on luxury private yachts and golf courses

They still hold prestige as long as they are from designers who limit their quantity

Today luxury designer brand tee shitrts retail for $125.00 to $1,000.00 and more Logo polo shirts from $150.00 to $1,000,00

Nothing will change this

Fresh air, one can breath again at last
WELL?
Yhere is nothing I would like better than to walk away from this fore ever.  I haven't any rdea what actually happened from December 1966 and January 1968 after closing up in Bennington and showing in Paris.
The only person that actually liked me was Rebecca Hatkness, very loyal so I felt safe calling her to reinstate me in the Haute Couture
She didn't hesitate one second and through it all never demanded anything from me
I knew nothing of what was thought of her in the fashion press.  Only that before marrying Harkness she was the house model and later directress of The NYC couturier Manbouche from Paris who had his Fashion House on Park Avenue and never had press showing
 only held private single clients who generally brought their husbands who made thebfinal decision on what his wife sould buy.  If he didn"t like it she didn't buy it
That is how Rebekka West met Harknes and later he proposed marriage to her
From this I supposed that Rebekka was the dragon at the door blocking the press entry but wasn't this how the haute couture should be?
I thought yes, perfect, since ptess shows could make or break a designer since the press blocked what clients could se and told people what to buy
Diana Vreeland from 1964 until 1971 was dominating editor of Vogue.  She was brilliant and fair minded
Now the whole world of fashion has been broken down by Anna Wintour and Bernard Arnauld.  I need sau nothing about them that hasen't already been said.  Nothing of Aeprnault but of Wintour, little.  Although in my humble opinion she isn't feaed in any way.  She is either indulged in having her way or totally ignored.  I can see fashion designers either hate her or grovel before her.
As far as I am concerned I am happy she has never mentioned my name and I haven't any reason to invite her for anything.

There I said it and now I need not have her cluttering up my mind.  I must finally say from perfect reasoning that her wig is the ugliest one I sver saw and ruins everything she wears.  Also under it tbere is nothing human.
