Hermès S/S 2020 Paris Fashion Week Women’s

-

Mood board: A host of emerging designers are harking back to the era of 1990s minimalism this spring. It’s clear we need a cleaner more pared-back wardrobe, to withstand today’s head spinning digital era. No one can master this silhouette better than Hermès Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski. There’s little more luxurious than a simple silhouette in the finest Hermès-honed fabrication. Like a vest top honed from the softest khaki suede with exposed white stitching, or woven in the finest mélange knit. The back was a sensual focal point of Cybulski’s spring offering, and alluded to the aprons sported by its artisans. Her pared back, sleek shapes were imagined in tones of rich chocolate, caramel, crisp white and vanilla, and included oversized leather trousers, patchwork pinafores, and waist defining tuxedo jackets with skin-flashing racer backs.

Best in show: A knee-skimming tan shift dress featured a sharp flounce of leather pleats, and had square, skin revealing laser-cut panels at the waistline. A fluid dress had a conservative cape silhouette face on, but a seductive and sporty racer back.

Finishing touches: Flat sandals were formed from graphic straps of leather and the most luxurious take on the summer bag was proposed. Forgot a weaved or raffia basket bag for the beach, Hermès’ version is formed from ovals of laser-cut leather. §

Takeaways from the outcry over Dior’s Johnny Depp perfume ad: Tuesday Wake-Up Call

Welcome to Ad Age’s Wake-Up Call, our daily roundup of advertising, marketing, media and digital news. You can sign up to get an audio version of this briefing on your Alexa device. Dior pulls a perfume ad starring Johnny Depp Yet another luxury brand just had to backtrack after a culturally insensitive move. Dior on Friday pulled an ad for its “Sauvage” perfume, as Business of Fashion reports ; the spot starred Johnny Depp playing guitar in the desert while a Native American dancer, Canku One Star, performed in traditional dress. The company portrayed the spot as “an authentic journey deep into the Native American soul.” But the brand was quickly accused of cultural appropriation. Critics seemed most troubled by the juxtaposition of Native American imagery with the word "Sauvage"—which means “wild” in French, but which also evokes the history of labeling indigenous groups as “savages.”  LVMH-owned Parfums Christian Dior had apparently tried to proceed cautiously. It coo

When the coronavirus infodemic strikes

Social media sites are stepping up their efforts in the war against misinformation… specifically, the coronavirus/COVID-19 infodemic . There’s a seemingly endless stream of potentially dangerous misinformation flying around online related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and that could have fatal results. It’s boomtown in fake-news land riding high on the wave of people being left with their tech devices 24/7. I myself regularly see everything posted online from “hand gel is an immunizer” (nope) and “children can’t be affected” (not true) to “UK rules mean domestic abuse survivors have to stay with their abusive spouse” (absolutely not true at all and hugely dangerous to claim).  We even have engineers being spat on thanks to 5G conspiracy theories potentially resulting in transmission of coronavirus . Turns out a global pandemic is a lightning rod for pushing people to conspiracy theories galore, to the extent that some folks have to go hunting for guides to wean their family members a

Patch, Or Your Solid State Drives Roll Over And Die

Expiration dates for computer drives? That’s what a line of HP solid-state drives are facing as the variable for their uptime counter is running out. When it does, the drive “expires” and, well, no more data storage for you! There are a series of stages in the evolution of a software developer as they master their art, and one of those stages comes in understanding that while they may have a handle on the abstracted world presented by their development environment they perhaps haven’t considered the moments in which the real computer that lives behind it intrudes. Think of the first time you saw an SQL injection attack on a website, for example, or the moment you realised that a variable type is linked to the physical constraints of the number of memory locations it has reserved for it. So people who write software surround themselves with an armoury of things they watch out for as they code, and thus endeavour to produce software less likely to break. Firmly in that arena is the size
