germany. this is historian, dr. hannah hope motor and they do not only drink privately at home, but also publicly the public spaces and the pop. it actually is the name it face, the public place to drink. fun fact, since alcohol is so cheap in germany, there is a law nick named the upper jets paragraph. it states that there must be at least one non alcoholic drink. it is no more expensive than the cheapest alcoholic drink . pop culture and germany has changed in recent decades. the time nightmare davin pub, death has come up. what's that about? in the early times of the 20th century, the traditional germans, neighbor, pop was predominant. whereas today, it diversified a lot. other new pops, other new bars pop up. so there is no can overture, but rather change of style. nike culture is honestly one of my

favorite things about germany, especially here in berlin, whether i am hanging out at my stunk, napa are enjoying a really nice cocktail. it's just good vibes. all right, fishing for followers. that's how you could describe today's social media influences. fashion world, but in paris and exhibition looks back in the ninety's when fashion shows were elite one off events with supermodels and pricey production. the hype around this year is preparatory shows in paris. in february was similar to a major awards show social media, and their influences have re style. the fashion shows into a mass event. now, many of the labels broadcast their shows live on social media, even as the fashion weeks run. and many fans throng the venues to take them in life . the giant explosion of interest and business money and fascination is completely different. it's really, it's become the caliber in a way,

the biggest arc form, you know, and it shouldn't be. it's not, it's not really an art form, a stop center or literature architecture, but now it's suddenly become the bigger art form. that's the 1st 2nd. the 2nd thing is that the sheer obsession with beauty has never been greater. if people are more interested, hardly looked than i have never been before, i let in to day every once interested in fashion. it's almost like the world cup. on a wind tour editor in chief of the american fashion magazine, vo still puts in an appearance. but now she has to share the stage with influencers . carro dower, and leoni hon. up. germany have more than $4000000.00 followers each on instagram and achieved international star status long ago. they're seen in designer outfits in the 1st row at the premier shows. got side bang. thank goodness my followers are really interested in what we're doing now during fashion week. we're posting lots

of things from the shows many outfits and videos. that's a lot of fun for these people. and after an exhausting day, you feel so motivated, you know that people are sitting out there and watching and saying next outfit. next look. it's a lot of fun and really, really great said issues more human can use new computers. social media has changed a lot fashion as incredibly popular and it's become accessible to walls that does. yes, everyone has an opinion and the chance to express it on the internet, fashion has become a pop culture phenomenon for no man to pub contreras. in the 19 ninety's, things were very different. the shows were limited entirely to the catwalk. it was the time of supermodels like claudio shufa and naomi campbell make up, was gangster creations, spectacular model and designer walks theatrical. that's what made up the look of the 19 ninety's fashion shows. the top creative minds of that decade were chatting, mcglenn and john for go chia, france and john gallano of the u. k. today nearly any one,

even pop stars can become fashion designers. in june 2023 american singer and wrapper for rel williams will present his 1st collection for louis veto indian shide on from the i think it was simply the right decision on the part of louis the talk. of course they will probably be those who say, oh, they're just taking someone who's already big and famous. but as i see it, this is simply a message. it's the right way to go. and i think it's totally cool. yeah. who to talk with the music. i era, fashion, museum, and paris has devoted an exhibition to past era's and in particular the year 199797 symbolizes the fashioned. big bang as it's known. the dawn of a new era check cutter exceptions develop. so every design, man,

or woman has their own personal style that appeals to a certain clientele, tootsie person, and in 1997, we had a number of these very strong personalities who express themselves in a very radical way their katasha. and that makes 1997 a special year and a turning point in the history of fasciitis is looks it else that i name is like it's one settle. again, it pointed the way for the development of fashion and the 21st century at all. no values on to him. cyclic german fashion photographer ellen front and vat also remembers this special time quite well. so much wency. so my mind's at that time it was about the supermodels and the designers created their apparel, especially for them. every designer created a whole character and the girl came out and played a certain role that was really exciting and electrifying the home. and then you dream about it and it would inspire you to take photos. why today the girls are very, very young and interchangeable. i'll stop by, you can't even keep up with who is new on the scene, because there's always new momentum is so i shouldn't be that noise one dies. these

days, the big show no longer takes place on the catwalk and star models are seldom seen. the collections have become more commercial. the events happen on the street and the internet, and their enthusiasm for fashion has never been greater. ah, tea time in england is an event steeped in tradition. and there are many steps to follow to give it just right. we find out the do's and don'ts for afternoon tea in london. traditional afternoon tea, the epitome of indulgence in the finest english manner. a culinary experience that feels all the cozier when london is yet again, grey and rainy. the legendary luxury hotel savoy has been serving the classic tea time since opening its doors in 1889. welcome to the savoy, my name elaine,

to work it is, is a self powering artwork, these solar window panels look like stained glass. but they also have a function and this solar powered hanging lamp called sun a is designed to mimic sunset. the sun is august. beautiful thing we're like, oh no very well. and i mean is this moment when you're on the, on the beach and you see the sunsetting is magical moment? that's kind of like what i want to use in the lights. so when the sun goes down, just son, it goes on. and it's like i have everyone has his personal relations with his son, but it's also like that it the fact that it's powering objects and his light is super, super fascinating. murray and fun album works out of this studio in amsterdam. she collaborates with scientists to create objects with a double function. they promote energy efficiency, such as this table, which is also

a docking station. it captures daylight and it's you can plug your phone or light or you can charge your devices from this. one of her bigger projects was for the dubai expo 2020. she created the colorful solar panels for the dutch pavilion. the solar roof provided power for the pavilion and also allowed in enough sunlight for the plants. marian's designs show how diverse solar panels can be. these are organic photovoltaics which is like a printed on pets, and they don't use any like very heavy metals, which is the battery environments and they're completely circular. so they're super lightweights who's kind of like a new generation of solar technology. marion has also designed a solution for food production in a self powering greenhouse and example was on display at the 2022 floor yard

horticulture expo in the netherlands. power plant allows for the production of food in places where there is a lack of electricity or lack of farming space. this is migration of the future of farming, and it's called power plants. and you basically can grow your fruit everywhere on your rooftop. so you don't have to flight in from the other side of the world, but you can really grow it within your own home. so it's uses vertical farming, and this is all powered by solar glass. even though she's a designer by trade, scientific developments are important to marian's work. solar cells has evolved so much since the last, like since our invention. and i think it's time that we start looking up in the sky where we got olds potential instead of digging down into grounds. i mean, if we could live in balance with nature and use sources that are coming all the time and are in abundance, i think that the worlds can be very beautiful place for marian,
