Talk:Fashion show

Edit Request

I actually wanted to make a change to this article to add a little more history to how it started. I think it is extremely important to also recognize Paul Poiret and especially Lucille Lady Duff-Gordon for being one of the first, and one of the most popular designers who also had a part in starting fashion shows. Lady Duff-Gordon was especially active in using this as a powerful marketing tool. Maybe I'd even mention why they started doing this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tforclass (talk • contribs) 18:30, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Off topic

But I don't know where else to ask: What is the purpose of fashion shows? It seems that nearly all, or at least the ones that get coverage, contain items that no one would ever wear in the real world. None of the designs I've ever seen actually get produced; the shows seem like concept car displays, with the exception that concept cars showcase new technologies that usually get included into production models.

Merger proposal

I think Runway (fashion) is unnecessary and should be merged into fashion show. (Heroeswithmetaphors) talk 18:20, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is a history sub-section, but it could be expanded. SpiritedMichelle (talk) 22:41, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
