Over the past 75 years, fashion shows have evolved from intimate presentations to global spectacles. Vogue takes a look at the rich history of fashion’s illustrious front row. Dior’s 1950s “New Look” revolutionized femininity, while the ’60s embraced individual freedom and exclusivity. The ’70s introduced cultural influencers and turned shows into entertainment, paving the way for the extravagant glamour of the ’80s. By the ’90s, mainstream appeal dominated, and the 2000s saw celebrities strategically claim the front row. The rise of influencers in the 2010s, fueled by social media, democratized access to Fashion Week. Even as the pandemic briefly halted live shows, the industry adapted and returned. Today, the front row itself has become part of the spectacle with celebrities like Kylie Jenner wearing the same outfit we also see on the runway.

What surprised me is that there is no rule that ads for food products must contain actual food. Seems like false advertising.

I applaud all the food stylists out there! I have worked on Lays packaging as a photoshop artist and I can attest to the rigorous parameters that goes into building the perfect chip (flavor coating, shape, texture and color). Enjoyed this video a lot!

Somehow she’s made me want to eat the promotional food and that’s a real skill given what that food actually is. Pretty sure she could describe a car crash and make it sound appealing, dang.

always thought it was hilarious that ‘false advertisement’ is illegal and this entire little industry is quite literally false advertisement.
making something look way better than it actually is then proceeding to sell you something that is nothing like it’s advertised. love it

Those chip bags are likely vinyl. They don’t have the edges along the top and they don’t crinkle as much. They use vinyl so the chip bag doesn’t ruin the audio for the actor’s voices.

When ever I see a food commercial I just have a picture in my mind of what it really looks like. When I was a kid I’d ask my parents “why does the food on commercials look so much better than when we get it”. lol
I can see at some point them just making CGI food instead of real. They can use the same CGI burgers, chips and such in different commercials.

this was so interesting! I never realized how much goes into an olive garden commercial
