You can now get a degree in fashion law thanks in part to Diane von Furstenberg.
Fordham University in New York City, which is home to Fashion Law Institute, announced the new fashion law degree offering inside the Lincoln Center campus.
“There are plenty of big law firms in the city that hire lawyers who have knowledge in the background of fashion,” Professor Susan Scafidi said. “Why wouldn’t they hire lawyers who are actually trained in the field of fashion?”
Scafidi, who also created the first fashion law class in 2010, thanked the CFDA and the “patron saint” of fashion law Von Furstenberg for making the degree possible. The designer is also part-financier and backer of the program.
At the press conference von Furstenberg said the she “firmly believes this program will become a powerful tool in the fashion world and beyond, and help us all as an industry-lawyers or not-better understand, grow, and protect our businesses.”

Applications for the program, which starts Fall 2015, are already being accepted, and will be offered for full-time and part-time students. There are two different options for those interested: a Master of Studies in Law, for professionals interested in fashion law, and a Master’s of Law, or LL.M, in Fashion Law for students who already have a J.D. law degree.
Courses include fashion financing, fashion licensing and fashion modelling law.

New Music: Youth Soul Love – Phases
YOUTH SOUL LOVE releases “PHASES” off his new album “SOULMATE”. I selected the title SOULMATE because I feel like it was something that represents my name & artistry YOUTH SOUL LOVE, It connects with my Young & mature audience bringing them back to the main objective and focus on planet earth which i believe LOVE. where I’m at as an Artist and the times were in. I feel like people are not speaking about love or singing about what comes along with love and I wanted to express my feelings a little bit less in Rap to actually deliver my stories in R&B, electronic and dance form. showcasing my ability to be diverse,You’re going to catch some Rap. You will catch some country, but I feel like this Iconic R&B sound is something soulful that the listeners could gravitate to, all the time when trying to find that special person who is their soulmate. I also went with the title because I feel like “Soulmate” was an amazing addition to my discography. I love everything around the name SOUL, whether it’s “SOUL NOT FOR SALE” or “SOULMATE”. My listeners know that they’re still in my book of discography and soulmate is just another chapter for the listeners and the lovers to connect with me.
The genre borrowed from multiple forms, but I would definitely say this is a new chapter of R&B/Melodic Rap, Being that Melodic Rap is a new genre for the new generation.
It is a Sound that I felt was perfect to write this musical letter to connect. – My key influences I would have to say would be Love, Heartbreak, Triumph,Fast Living & Nightlife battling to find myself in who I am as an artist while dealing with love finding the balance.
