Tour Introduction of Fashion Cities Africa - Duration: 1:31.

My name's Martin Pel. I'm the Curator of Fashion at Brighton Museum and

I'm the co-curator of Fashion Cities Africa

Hello, I'm Helen Mears, i'm Keeper of World Art

at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery

and welcome to Fashion Cities Africa.

This exhibiton opened at Brighton Museum in April 2016

and presents a snap shot of fashion practices in four cities around the African continent.

They are Johannesburg in South Africa,

Lagos in Nigeria,

Casablanca in Morocco,

and Nairobi in Kenya.

And in this exhibition we've tried to provide a snap shot

of fashion practices and to profile the work of really exciting

makers and creators working in each city.

And one of the rationales behind the exhibition was really to

show what's going on in these cities because Africa's always been seen

certainly within the Western fashion tradition as

the great inspiration for fashion but never been seen, or it's never been,

a great producer of contemporary fashions.

So, and it is beginning to be so.

So what we really wanted to do was show that.

Martin Pel talks about the Casablanca part of Fashion Cities Africa - Duration: 3:38.

So this is Casablanca. We chose Casablanca because

geographically and historically it has always been seen as the gateway to

sub-saharan Africa, to Europe and to the Middle East. And so it has all these lots

of different influences coming in with its huge port you have people coming

into the city, people going out and there's always these huge influences

throughout history that really can be reflected within the fashion that you

find in the country, or the city. So here you've got designer called Said Mahrouf

and he absolutely encapsulates that story about the international scope of

Casablanca as a city. So he was born in Morocco and then when he was aged about

four he moved to the Netherlands, he grew up in the Netherlands, was educated there

he went to university, studied design there. Then he went to New York and studied at Parsons.

The aesthetic of his design is very much a Western aesthetic so he says

himself I'm making no concessions in my designs to traditional Morocco.

And this, i mean this is, this could be in 1930s Charles James who was Anglo American designer.

They're are influences of his heritage

so this is certainly to do with tradition techniques that happen in

Morocco but really his aesthetic is very much international in scope.

So the fashion industry in Casablanca, well it isn't the fashion industry, it's a very very small

group of people that are working to try and establish some sort of fashion identity for the city.

There has been a growth in support by the government so there's a

school called Casa Moda and really what the government is trying

to do is train individuals so they are able to actually

produce clothing and they also want people to be able to be confident and

design enough to be able to translate what's seen as current fashion.

What they don't want really or what they haven't invested in are art schools where

individuals can train to be say the next Alexander McQueen or

the next John Galliano. They're not actually have that stage at this point in time.

Joseph is very committed for Casablanca to be seen as a very very creative city

There isn't yet the infrastructure behind that.

Joseph is very interested in street fashion which is what we've got shown here.

At the end is an example of Joseph's own style, the clothes that he wears. And then there's young

designers working within the city so you've got Yassine working here.

You've got Amine. This is a collaboration with Amine and the artist Hassan Hajjaj,

who is based in London but originally from Morocco. And then this is a design duo

two sisters called Jnoun. And street fashion is incredibly

important for Casablancans because it's the way that they express themselves.

They don't have, they're beginning more to have, the sort of shop that

we would understand, but that's very much been in the last say ten years so street

fashion for Casablancans, the young Casablancans, is incredibly important.

Karbonn Aura Note 2 Review: A Budget Android With an Eye For Fashion | TECHNOLOGY - Duration: 5:44.

Karbonn Aura Note 2 Review: A Budget Android With an Eye For Fashion

Indian home-grown company Karbonn Mobiles has doubled down on its fashion-savvy device offerings by launching the Aura Note 2 on Friday.

The smartphone succeeds the company's Fashion eye range of phones launched last year and is focussed on using AI to satisfy its users' fashion needs.Karbonn Aura Note 2 comes as another budget offering by the smartphone manufacturer and has its own sets of focus.

Just how much these USPs of the device help in your everyday smartphone usage, let's find out in this review.

What's Cool?

Since the Karbonn Aura Note 2 has a 'fashion' or 'style' tangent to it, the smartphone certainly scores good marks for its design.

On multiple occasions have I been asked about the name of the device and the common intrigue shows that the smartphone looks quite appealing.

The bezel area on the top and the bottom is optimum and is in match with the device's screen size.

The Black colour of the smartphone looks good in contrast with the Gold detailing done on the sides and at the camera bump.

Power button on the right and the volume keys on the left are simplistically and conveniently placed for single-handed operation.

The 5.5-inch HD display of the device delivers a sharp experience with ample colour and contrast. The brightness does well too and can tackle a bright sunny day without any glare on the screen.

The Aura Note 2 is powered by a 1.25 GHz quad-core processor and runs the latest Android 70 Nougat. This, coupled with a 2GB RAM, makes the device notably fast in terms of operation.

It handles tasks well and there is rarely any lag experienced on the smartphone when put through an average smartphone usage.

Aura Note 2 houses 16GB of internal storage which is further expandable up to 32GB.Coming to the USP of the Aura Note 2, the Karbonn smartphone comes with an in-built 'Fashion Eye' app which is powered by an Artificial Intelligence start-up named 'Staqu'.

The app essentially uses AI to identify patterns and designs from clothes in the picture that is selected by the user.

It then matches these designs with products available across various e-commerce websites to bring out an identical piece of clothing that the user can then buy.Now we were a bit sceptical about the app before using it.

AI in India is still in a very nascent stage and hence we did not have high expectations from this feature of the phone.

The Fashion Eye app, however, is not at all a bad experience and on the contrary, might surprise you with some pretty 'bulls-eye' matches. We noticed that real-life images captured through the app delivered better results on the e-commerce stores.

Downloaded pictures or ones on the internet, not so much. The AI in the app is able to identify the colour and the pattern of any clothing easily.

However, users are advised to keep it simple and look for everyday clothing on the app. If you try to go for 'designer wear', the app might not impress you that much.

App also offers an option of looking through videos (mostly Bollywood) for identifying what the celebrities in those videos are wearing and then order the same from online stores.Other in-built apps on the phone, like Karbonn Fun-Zone and Karbonn Klinic are handy too.

The former comes as an entertainment platform with games, videos and more, while the latter displays information about the Karbonn service centres nearest to you, complete with their address and the contact number.

The dual-SIM functionality and 4G support are also a big thumbs-up for the smartphone.

What's not so cool?

To top this list is the battery of the smartphone. The 2,900 mAh battery is 'just not good' – period.

Battery troubles of the Aura Note 2 is a big turn-off and if you are a power user, the smartphone might become a big No-No just for this one reason.

To make it worse, the battery takes a whole lot of time to charge, with more than 20 minutes being spent on the phone's charging, just to see the battery backup rise by a mere 10 percent, which by the way, lasts hardly for the next 10 minutes.

It is surprising that when other smartphone companies are focusing ONLY on the battery backup of some of their devices, Karbonn has completely ignored it. We can only hope that the company pays more attention to it in the future.

On a less than average use, the smartphone will last almost a day on a full charge.Also, the 13-megapixel camera of the smartphone is not really impressive.

It isn't a bad camera per se, but will only do you justice till the time you're not meddling with it too much. Just zoom in a little bit and you will start getting grainy images for your shots.

The same goes for its 5-megapixel front camera. The cameras come with features like touch focus, continuous shots, panorama and a face beauty option at the front.The built of the 165 grams smartphone is not of very high quality.

Though the rubber finish makes it appear good, the weak plastic back does not give a very refined feel to the phone.

A fingerprint sensor would also have been appreciated on the device, but then again, very few smartphones offer that within this price range, so it is not a miss.

Verdict

The Rs 6,490 Karbonn Aura Note 2 is certainly a good option for its price. The smartphone performs well, has its own USPs which might appeal to many and looks good to hold.

If you do not need to operate your smartphone throughout the day and are able to make do with an average camera quality, it is a good buy.

The Aura Note 2 will cater especially well to the online shoppers who like to experiment with their wardrobe.
