Rachel Victoria Poem Contribution

To add some difference to my final outcome, to add a further sense of personability to the meaning behind the entire publication. Therefore I thought I should add some different methods of art, other than visual, as fashion itself is seen as an 'art', so I contacted a songwriter/poet I am close friends with. I started with asking if she would be willing to make a poem that relevant to my essay rather than the visual content I was producing to allow for it to have a link more largely swayed by my theoretical work, as that was the influence for the practical work in the first place.

The poem received from the essay, depicted a consumer treating brands as if they were a lover, and the relationship between them. This works well with my practical outcome as it gives the relationship between a consumer and brands, humanistic value, therefore allowing the audience to be able to evaluate the relationship in a familiar way. Thus allowing them to evaluate the way that their brands represent them and vice versa, as would a partner, and the way in which they can be perceived negatively for endorsing their traits not only your own.

Finished poem:

She dines with the night stars,
Nothing less,
She’ll never go back down to Earth.
Burberry,
Her best friend,
Never a miss. 
Her eloquent chequered Statement, 
Makes Burberry all the reason to Be seen with,
More than an acquaintance. 
And as she bathes in honey
She can’t taste the sweetness on Her lips 
But what does it matter if you Can’t taste? 
When Yves Saint Laurent 
Kisses you.
Her Luxurious pink nude leaves Her stain on the night, 
A mouth you can not forget.
Yves Saint Laurent makes the Perfect lover,
To have on her lips.
And as she nearly drifts to sleep,
She realises she doesn’t want to Be alone,
And no other man compares 
To Calvin Klein.
She wants to wear him,
All night long. 
His bold name 
Everyone knows 
So much pride comes with feeling Him on your skin, 
And that is why

She only dines with the night Stars.
