Contextul economic actual inseamna mai putine joburi si mai multi oameni nefericiti (sau frustrati, cel putin!). Cu toate astea, se pare ca designerii sunt fericiti cu starea lucrurilor. Ba mai mult, cei cativa din elita modei sunt convinsi ca economia in declin are un impact pozitivasupra industriei. Nu-mi dau seama daca e vorba de faptul ca ei sunt cu adevarat „din alt film” sau, pur si simplu, sunt oameni talentati care au ajuns bogati si nu mai au nici un fel de contact cu realitatea. Sunt curioasa ce credeti voi, dar pana atunci cititi mai jos un extras dintr-un articol de pe WWD.com. (In ceea ce ma priveste, citatul Dianei von Furstenberg m-a facut sa rad in hohote!)<\/p>\n

\nThe weather is beautiful. I\u2019m in love. I\u2019m engaged to be married. I\u2019m working on building a new home, and working in the studio with Steven Meisel and Madonna on the next [Louis Vuitton] campaign. Then, I have two days of shooting with Juergen [Teller]. The Met is [tonight], which I\u2019m excited about. I\u2019m receiving a FiFi Award. Then, we receive the International CFDA award for Louis Vuitton. So, I kind of have really great stuff on a daily basis. I can\u2019t find anything to be unhappy about at the moment.<\/p>\n
\nI think there was too much of everything, and I feel like the whole industry had to take a laxative. We just had too much s–t, and therefore there\u2019s a cleansing thing that happens. In our industry, you have to have a reason to be. Some prices are just too expensive for what you are getting. Herm\u00e8s is doing very well. Why? I can still use my mother\u2019s handbags.<\/p>\n
\nChanel did even better this year than last year in the same time. That\u2019s the miracle of Chanel. Is it the collection? I don\u2019t know. Is it because people want things safe? I have no idea. It\u2019s a miracle.<\/p>\n
\nThe good news is everyone\u2019s heart is opening. People really do care. Is philanthropy down? Every night there are three or four events with people coming together to help others. It\u2019s all about opening hearts and people really getting together.<\/p>\n
\nThe good news is in this crazy, terrible economy, I think people\u2019s taste is getting better. They have to think about what they buy and they\u2019re getting a more discerning eye because of it. There are no more shoes you can\u2019t walk in, bags you can\u2019t carry, dresses you can\u2019t sit in.<\/p>\n
\nFirst of all, we feel hypercreative, reactive, excited and stimulated. Strangely enough, given the times, we feel good and feel the urge to experiment.<\/p>\n
\nGood news \u2014 my plants in my garden are happy and about to bloom. My dog Oliver has recently learned to lay down \u2014 on command. I am more inspired, and my focus is clearer then ever! Life is good, as it\u2019s really the simple things that I have come back to. It\u2019s been a reawakening.<\/p>\n
\nThe sky is not blue everywhere, but you have a lot showing here and there. People are working hard again; designers are motivated. […] People are talking a lot to the stores, to retailers, understanding the need, optimizing. The crisis has brought everybody back to retailing, merchandising and servicing \u2014 how to service better and talk to the customer.<\/p>\n
\nPart of the thought process behind my spring collection was to make happy clothes and I think people are responding to that. We have a new fragrance that\u2019s doing really well. It\u2019s called Live Your Dream.

\nFirst, I have to say we\u2019re very lucky to have a president who not only can write, but can speak, so I think our overall quality of life has improved tremendously.<\/p>\n
\nPockets of good news, and I mean pockets.There was a little sign of happiness about a month ago when we did $20,000 on a Saturday. We also had a Saturday that we haven\u2019t had in a while \u2014 we did $100,000 selling bridal uptown.<\/p>\n
\nIn a sense, what happened [in the economy] was kind of a good thing [for the industry]. I\u2019m tired of it now and I want it to go away, but we all needed a little wake up call. Things were getting a little formulaic. You weren\u2019t paying as close attention as you had to because everything was selling. When you get a little worried, you start paying closer attention.<\/p>\n
