Will “transmission” be the brand new buzzword in 2024? By that includes the primary
a part of his Spring-Summer time 2024 Haute Couture present with twenty younger
college students from the style colleges IFM and Esmod, couturier Stéphane Rolland

the transmission of workmanship.
After ‘eco-friendly’, ‘moral’, and ‘sustainable’ the style
(advertising) vocabulary has enriched itself with the phrases ‘transparency’
and ‘traceability’. In 2024, it’s possible that the phrase ‘transmission’ will
be on the coronary heart of many storytelling narratives. The scarcity of expert
labour, notably skilled palms, poses an actual concern to the business,
resulting in quite a few occasions and bulletins geared toward piquing the curiosity
and curiosity of the youthful technology.

Spring-Summer time 2024 Haute Couture present, of the works of twenty college students from
Esmod and IFM. Earlier than the present, the couturier himself took the stage on the
Pleyel corridor (the place his present came about throughout Couture Week in January 2024)
to elucidate the
work course of behind the challenge.
A primary on the planet of appearances that’s the style business, the place
the ultimate bow is customary. It’s additional proof, if any had been wanted, of
the generosity and humility of this impartial couturier who actively
engages with younger designers, as seen throughout his
position because the president of the jury on the Dinan Pageant in 2022.

Titled “Sharing,” the presentation of their silhouettes appears to align
with the prospect of a “New Couture,” suggesting a Couture that’s renewed
and maybe indifferent from the adjective “Haute,” who is aware of? Whereas the
college students have realized an ideal deal from this transmission, it additionally provides
their elders a glimpse into the world of Gen Z, whose method to work,
cash, and fame creates a big divide from the previous methods.
