Asian fashion and pop culture have been sweeping the world for over 50 years. \nIn the 1970s\, Japanese designers arrived in Paris and revolutionized the industry by transforming the meaning of fashion with the diffusion of anime and manga as Cool Japan. Korean pop culture and entertainment since the 1990s\, known as Hallyu\, expanded rapidly through social media and reached global audiences as well. Much success has been evinced by the popularity of K-brands within music\, drama\, and technology. Both the Japanese and Korean governments made attempts to use fashion and pop culture as “soft power” for their cultural diplomacy. \nThis discussion will compare and contrast the fashion and pop culture sectors in Japan and Korea in their successful attempts at globalization by delving into the past and present states of the fashion\, entertainment\, and related sectors. \nThis event is for the FIT community only; REGISTER HERE.  URL:https://events.fitnyc.edu/event/globalization-of-korean-hallyu-and-cool-japan-past-present-and-future/ LOCATION:Conference Center\, Seminar Room 9\, 227 West 27th Street\, New York\, NY\, 10001\, United States CATEGORIES:Lecture ORGANIZER;CN="Vincent Quan":MAILTO:vincent_quan@fitnyc.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240418T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240418T183000 DTSTAMP:20260501T094011 CREATED:20240213T212455Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240213T212455Z UID:10007445-1713459600-1713465000@events.fitnyc.edu SUMMARY:Demystifying Artist Statements DESCRIPTION:Constellate [verb]: to group\, cluster\, or collect related elements; to gather. \nTogether we will constellate our ideas\, influences\, and creative goals into effective artist statements. \nTwo Sessions:\nThursday\, March 14\nThursday\, April 18 \nBoth sessions: 5–6:30 pm\nWriting and Speaking Studio\, Feldman Center\, Room C612\n \nThis event is for FIT students only; RSVP on FITLink or Corq\, by emailing writing_speaking@fitnyc.edu\, or by calling (212) 217-3060.

The book offers 10 tips for self-control based on a food pro’s personal experience eating and drinking at home\, work\, and in social settings. The book covers subjects of self-care\, moderating alcohol\, cooking mindfully\, eating out in restaurants and navigating the many tempting social situations we find ourselves in\, and the expectations that others can put on us. \nThroughout the book\, Lawton shares funny anecdotes about everyday life and examples of ways to pay attention to our mood and surroundings. What’s different about this book? There are so many recipe books on the joy of cooking. And so many apps and programs on dieting or abstinence. This book is about loving yourself enough to enjoy everything in balance. Lawton draws on her experiences working in the food and wine industries\, beginning as a corporate brand manager for super-premium Italian wines and Champagnes. \nThis virtual event is free and open to the public; join by Webex via the FIT Authors website.  URL:https://events.fitnyc.edu/event/fit-authors-talk-moderating-a-love-affair-with-food/ LOCATION:Virtual event ORGANIZER;CN="Jennifer Brady%2C Gladys Marcus Library":MAILTO:jennifer_brady@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240506T161000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240506T173000 DTSTAMP:20260501T094011 CREATED:20240209T182304Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240408T210943Z UID:10007435-1715011800-1715016600@events.fitnyc.edu SUMMARY:Faces and Places in Fashion: Jaclyn Goldgrub DESCRIPTION:Jaclyn Goldgrub\, chief merchant and owner\, Dear Dreamer\, will be the guest at this week’s Faces and Places in Fashion.
