Hi there, Quartz members!
There’s a brand new dance, but I don’t know its name…
This week, we’re diving into the world of fashion, which is being transformed by youth, China, and a redefinition of luxury. Our state of play memo shows how the ground is shifting beneath the industry—and who stands to lose or gain. We also have a roster of the essential people to know in fashion: the key names who control the moving parts of this global machine.
What’s coming this week
A QZ&A with YouTube’s fashion czar
A chart book showing how China is more important than Paris
A look at how one designer’s rise was the start of a sea change
And much more…
Mark your calendars: We’ll have a conference call on Friday, November 30 to discuss more about what’s happening on and off the runway. Stay tuned for details.
Let’s keep learning. Send ideas, questions, comments, and visits from the goon squad to members@qz.com.
Hope you have a rewarding day,
Sam Grobart
