Metaforas modes emuāros
2017
Lai gan metaforas pētījumi ir piesaistījuši daudzu zinātnieku uzmanību, metaforu lietojums modes emuāros nav daudz pētīts. Emuārs kā žanrs parādījās 2000.gadu sākumā un kopš tā laika ir izveidojušies dažādi emuāra veidi. Empīriskie dati ir ekscerpēti no modes emuāra The Blonde Salad. Pētījums ir izstrādāts, lai atbildētu uz pētījuma jautājumu - kāda metaforu funkcija dominē emuārā The Blonde Salad. Pētījuma mērķis ir noteikt avota domēnus, kas metaforiski raksturo modi izvēlētajā modes emuārā. Teorētiskā pētījuma daļa ir balstīta uz teorijām par metaforām, to funkcijām un iedalījumu tādu zinātnieku kā Lakofs, Džonsons, Gibs, Knovles, Mūns un Kovecses skatījumā. Empīŗiskais pētījums ir veikt…

2017
Mūsdienās, informācijas apmaiņas daudzums ir neizmērojams, līdz ar to, mēdiji ir kļuvuši par mūsu dzīves neatliekamu sastāvdaļu. Pastāv daudz un dažādu žurnālu, laikrakstu, „dzeltenās preses” izdevumu u.t.t., kuros tiek rakstīts par dažādām tēmām. Galvenokārt, visu presi var iedalīt pa grupām, attiecīgi pēc tēmām, par kurām tiek rakstīts. Vieni no pazīstamākajiem un iecienītākajiem, mūsdienās, ir modes žurnāli. Mode vienmēr ir bijusi aktuāla tēma, par kuru cilvēki ir gribējuši rakstīt. Žurnāls Vogue ir viens no vissenākajiem un pazīstamākajiem modes žurnāliem.

RISQUE ASSOCIE A L'UTILISATION DE LA LOI DE BENFORD POUR DETECTER DES VENTES FRAUDULEUSES DE BIENS INNOVANTS A LA MODE
2010
Benford's law has been promoted as providing the auditors with a turnkey solution for fraud detection. The purpose of this paper is to show it is not always possible to detect fraudulent sales with that law. We use sales in volume of game consoles in Japan (since 1989), in United-States, in France, in Germany and in United-Kingdom (since 2000). After reviewing briefly the literature and our study design, the chi-square test and the bias analysis were used to measure the goodness-of-fit to Benford's law. Despite the absence of actual fraud, these sale series of fashion goods are not significantly in conformity with Benford's law. Thus, for the detection of fraudulent sales in this sector, th…

Skull mania. Le dinamiche di un motivo iconografico tra arte, moda e design
2013
Il motivo iconografico del teschio è uno dei più antichi e ricorrenti nella tradizione artistica. Nella contemporaneità questa immagine, oltrepassando i confini dell’arte, prolifera nella sfera della moda e del design. Questa migrazione ha il punto di svolta in For the Love of God (2007), il teschio intarsiato di diamanti, opera di Damien Hirst, a cui si è ispirato lo stilista Alexander McQueen per le sue creazioni di moda e accessori. Diffondendosi nella cultura di massa l’immagine del teschio acquista una vita autonoma, obliando la sua derivazione artistica, e caricandosi di nuove plurime valenze simboliche che rendono evidenti le contaminazioni tra arte, moda e design proprie della cultu…

Mikołaj Rej's opinions about the Italian fashion for residential developments in Poland
2020
U progu światopoglądowych przemian Renesansu włoskiego rozpowszechnił się w XVI-wiecznej Polsce nowy model życia elit intelektualnych. Obszarem niezwykłej konkretyzacji tych ideowych metamorfoz stały się osiągnięcia architektoniczne. Willa podmiejska urosła do roli symbolu. Modny typ budowli znalazł w Polsce podatny grunt do rozwoju, gdzie szczególne nasilenie ruchu willowego widoczne było w najbliższych okolicach Krakowa. Świadectwo tego architektonicznego odrodzenia odnotował także Mikołaj Rej, zarówno bystry świadek, jak i komentator swojej epoki. Zapewne bardzo uważnie obserwował on ten ożywiony ruch w budownictwie oraz innych rzemiosłach, czemu dał wyraz w Źwierciadle... Pisarz starał …
The Cross-Channel Effects of In-Store Customer Experience in the Case of Omnichannel Fashion Retailing in Finland
2023
Although omnichannel retailing has emerged as a popular research topic in academic research, there are still gaps in our understanding of this phenomenon. One such gap concerns omnichannel customer experience and particularly the cross-channel or spillover effects of how customer experience in one channel may affect customer behaviour not only in that specific channel but also in the other channels of the same retailer. In this study, we aim to address this gap by examining how customer experience in the offline channel affects customer behaviour in both the offline and the online channel, more specifically how in-store customer experience affects both brick-and-mortar store and online stor…
