Gucci normally stages its shows in Milan, but like the main fashion houses, the Italian luxury brand chooses locations around the world to show off its cruise collections - that is the shows in between the main spring and autumn seasons. The big-budget runway show event highlighted the first cruise collection by Sabato De Sarno, who was named Gucci's creative director last year and debuted his featured a few checked jackets with a bit of British flairs, though some other designs were a much more true Gucci. subtle tribute. Dresses and coats covered with squares made of a shimmering bead fringe were a reference to Scottish plaids.

Bader Content Studios Europe was invited to be on hand and learned the storied fashion house has a fascinating historical tie to the UK. Its legendary founder, Guccio Gucci, once worked as a bellhop at the Savoy, the center of luxury in London, over a century ago.

Brand experts told us Guccio took inspiration from that experience when he opened his first store in Florence back in 1921 to sell luggage.

Among the star-studded crowd in the front row were actors Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott, alongside music icons Dua Lipa and Solange Knowles. Also in the front row were Salma Hayek and her husband, Francois-Henri Pinault, who is chair and CEO of Kering, Gucci’s parent company.

The Tate Modern is currently hosting an exhibition dedicated to the multidisciplinary work of Yoko Ono, the wife and creative partner of the late Beatle John Lennon. The wing includes installations, films, scores, music, and photography, the monumental showcase spans seven decades of her artistic evolution. It runs until September1 2024.

Kering hopes this showing will help revive sales at its flagship brand which suffered a sales decline.

Bader Media was invited to the show in Milan.

The runway along with the Hollywood crowd that turned out to see what is next, saw a new appreciation of beauty, creating a foundation of a wide scale reset for the French group's core label - which would be the key to creating buzz and reigniting sales, even if the new designs won't reach stores until early next year.

Thomas Chauvet, analyst with Citi, said the first look of De Sarno's vision for the brand indicated "a clear evolution from prior brand aesthetics, likely to attract a slightly older demographic and command higher price points."

Models filed down a darkened, concrete runway at Gucci's headquarters, which was a former aircraft factory, highlighting shorts paired with suit jackets, strapless mini-dresses, trim sweatshirts and tank tops with plunging necklines. The show was moved indoors after a threat of rain.
One of fashion's biggest success stories in recent years, Gucci has fallen behind rivals like LVMH-owned Louis Vuitton and Dior that capitalized on a strong post-pandemic desire for luxury goods.

Since parting ways last November with previous creative director Alessandro Michele, whose spirited, gender-neutral styles were credited with huge sales and profits to match in a four year period, Kering has been planning a new foundation for the brand's reset with more elevated and timeless looks.

Gucci's long-time CEO Marco Bizzarri is set to depart the company after this show, to be replaced by managing director Jean-Francois Palus - Kering CEO and Chairman Francois-Henri Pinault's right-hand man - for a short transitional period.

We take a look back at the recent Tribeca Film Festival where NYC VIBE greeted the filmmakers, writers, director and wife of the captain of the Springboks South African Rugby team that were thrilled to introduce their just finished movie highlighting Siya Kolisi and his foundation’s impact on the world’s stage.

With the 2023 Rugby World Cup Championships about to start in France and Kolisi back in action after an injury this summer, the rugby community will be focused on the talented team about to show the world who they are.

It is said that leaders are born out of many circumstances, including the need to grow up fast. Siya Kolisi had no other choice in the harsh challenges of his upbringing. Trials and tribulations gave way to a leader, and fittingly, the first Black captain of the South Africa national rugby union team. We hear from the man himself alongside family, friends, teammates, and more, as they weave together the grand tale of just who and what makes the Springboks legend so incomparable.

At times the life of Siya jumps off the screen like a fairy tale, with challenges external and internal paving the path for a success story that encapsulates perseverance. A singular story yet one that rings universal in its themes of overcoming, community, passion, and forgiveness. All this comes alongside stunning footage and intimate reveals from the Springboks’ quest to capture their record-tying third Rugby World Cup.

This story is just beginning to be written - as you will see.

A Night Under the Stars at the Lang Lang Music Foundation Summer Concert

August 2023 - Water Mill, NY:

Under a sky full of stars, shining a bright glow directed towards the musical stars of tomorrow….on stage before an audience the students offered an inspirational performance for the patrons and supporters of the Lang Lang International Music Foundation in the Hamptons.

Chinese born pianist Lang Lang is an international superstar, who tours the world with more than 120 performances each year and performs with the world’s top orchestras, including the Berlin Philharmonic and the Vienna Philharmonic, which make Lang Lang one of the most desired music stars of our times.

If one word applies to Lang Lang, to the musician, to the man, to his worldview, to those who come into contact with him, it is “inspiration”. It resounds like a musical motif through his life and career. He inspires millions with his open-hearted, emotive playing, whether it be in intimate recitals or on the grandest of stages ..

Yet he never forgets what first inspired, and continues to inspire him. Great artists, above all the great composers – Liszt, Chopin and the others – whose music he now delights in bringing to others.

As a child - the joy and excitement of discovering music stays with him and propels him to what he calls “his second career”, bringing music into the lives of children around the world, both through his work for the United Nations and through his own Lang Lang International Music Foundation.

As he inspires, he is inspired. As he is inspired, he inspires others. It is this quality, perhaps, that led the New Yorker to call him “the world’s ambassador of the keyboard”.

On this glorious night, hosted by Christopher Burch, the Lang Lang Music Foundation Chairman, it was a night to meet the Young Scholars and enjoy their performances and to take in what they have learned in their young careers.

The name Lang Lang means ‘brilliance of the sky - but on this night, it was the brilliance of the keyboard on the ground that demonstrated the power of music.

Damon said: “We gave the strike authorization. We voted 98% to 2% to do that because we know our leadership has our best interest at heart.”

Emily Blunt told Variety: “Obviously we stand with all of the actors and at whatever point it’s called, we’re going to be going home and standing together through it because I want everyone to get a fair deal.”

‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ Off to Slow Box Office Start

July 2023 - Los Angeles, CA:

The fifth “Indiana Jones” film might have trouble making a profit and reaching its box-office destiny.

Disney’s "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" opened the July 4 Weekend holiday box office with a strong start that soon faded, bringing in a meager $60 million according to estimates from measurement firm Comscore.

The long-anticipated sequel matched the low end of already guarded projections in the $60-million to $65-million range in the U.S. while internationally, the action film grossed $70 million for a global total of $130 million, according to Disney studio estimates. This is a real issue for the franchise, which has a reported budget of $300 million.

Directed by James Mangold, “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” stars 80 year old Harrison Ford in his final performance as Indy, the heroic archaeologist on a daring mission to capture a precious artifact. Among the supporting cast of the film include Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Antonio Banderas, John Rhys-Davies, Toby Jones, Boyd Holbrook, Ethann Isidore and Mads Mikkelsen.

This latest installment of the “Indiana Jones” franchise, which made its world premiere at the recent Cannes Film Festival received a 68% rating on review aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes and an average B-plus grade from audiences polled by CinemaScore.

Bader Studios Hollywood was on the red carpet for the Los Angeles premiere talking with Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destin director James Mangold, with Kathleen Kennedy, Frank Marshall and Simon Emanuel producing. Steven Spielberg and George Lucas serve as executive producers. John Williams, who has scored each Indy adventure since the original Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1981, once again composed the score.

2023 Berlin Film Festival Hosts Top directors, Multicultural Offerings with Docs on Ukraine

February 2023, Berlin Germany: The Berlin International Film festival comes to a close with the weight of the world on the shoulders of the top directors to tell the stories of the issues, famine, hunger, war and disease that is plaguing the globe.

Hollywood actor Kristen Stewart took the role as the head of a jury very seriously, joined by Iranian-French star Golshifteh Farahani and previous Berlinale-winning directors Carla Simón and Radu Jude - a group that sent a signal early on that they were about to make some non-standard award choices.

The jury awarded the Golden Bear top honor to the French documentary “On the Adamant.” Nicolas Philibert’s film which tells the story of a unique mental health treatment facility that uses art as a primary method of care. Stewart said the film expanded the jury’s understanding of what constitutes art.

The Silver Bear for Best Director went to Philippe Garrel for “The Plough,” while the Silver Bear for Best Lead Performance went to child star Sofia Otero for “20,000 Species of Bees.”

Steven Spielberg was in Berlin to accept the honorary Golden Bear for Lifetime Achievement.

A highlight of the festival was the showing of ”Golda” a drama about Israeli premier Golda Meir and the Yom Kippur war, with Helen Mirren offering a solid, thoughtful performance with a very emotional subject.

Front and center on the red carpet was Sean Penn with his documentary about Ukraine, “Superpower”, co-directed with Aaron Kaufman, in which a nod to Volodymyr Zelenskiy was overshadowed by the banning of Russian filmmakers who were financed by the Russian government.

While Superpower did not overwhelm the judges, they were pleased with “Eastern Front” from Ukraine, a realistic and eye opening documentary by Vitaly Mansky and Yevhen Titarenko, based substantially on footage, shot on duty with a volunteer medical crew.

The CFDA Fashion Awards Highlighted the Best Designers and Creative Visions of the Past Year

It was a night to remember in New York City when Hollywood stars crossed paths with the top American fashion designers on the night that honored the best in fashion, promoting industry diversity, creativity, taking into account climate change and to take a look into the future.

International affairs reporter Jillian Wolf was on the red carpet and tells us the awards were meaningful and will have a long lasting effect motivating the CFDA members to continue on their path to promote American fashion.

In a changing social and political climate, the CFDA introduced an award that aimed to recognize those who work for positive changes within the fashion community. The Positive Social Influence Award was presented to the collective called The Slaysians. It is composed of Laura Kim, co-creative director of Oscar de la Renta and Monse, Phillip Lim and Prabal Gurung who both have their eponymous fashion collections, the restaurateur Ezra Williams, and stylist and influencer Tina Leung. This group of friends are advocates of the “Stop Asian Hate” movement.
There were also two inaugural awards at the star studded ceremony. Law Roach accepted the Stylist Award in a dramatic black and white polkadot opera coat. His stylistic influence is closely tied with Zendaya’s meteoric fashion rise. The Innovation Award went to Kim Kardashian and her co-founders of shapewear brand Skims, Jens and Emma Grede.

February 2023 - Los Angeles, CA:

They're trailblazers whose legacies will forever stand the test of time and for Motown's existence, boom and continued success, one indomitable, canny visionary can take the lion's share of credit - Berry Gordy who founded the Detroit label back in 1959. Equally as influential to Motown's legacy is Smokey Robinson - Gordy's creative and business partner, and best friend of more than 65 years.

As both loom so large in music, and their stories are so intertwined, that selecting just one as the MusiCares Person of The Year would be only telling half the story. So, for the first time, MusiCares expanded the honor to include two Persons Of The Year of equal and parallel esteem.

Berry Gordy and Smokey Robinson are the the Persons of The Year - Together and individually, apart, their creative accomplishments and philanthropic work have made the differences for many careers.

Bader Content Studios Hollywood was on the red carpet talking with Berry and Smokey’s dear musical friends about what they have meant to the recording industry.

MusiCares hosted a gala to remember, celebrating the two men while raising funds toward the music charity’s programs and services that assist the music community all year long.

The special musical event benefits MusiCares®, music’s leading charity that offers confidential preventive, recovery, and emergency programs to address financial, medical, and holistic wellness issues of music people in need.
