Jay™ Layout in Italian Version

Simple, because there is nothing to learn, as natural as using your own voice.

Jay™ is a multimodal application. It means that Jay™ provides the user with the possibility to select the interaction method he or she prefers, choosing among “classical” ones (keyboards, mouse) and newer, easier ones, like your own voice.

Nowadays accessibility is a general term used to describe the degree to which a product, device, service, or environment is accessible by as many people as possible and, very often, to focus on people with disabilities and their right of access to entities through use of assistive technology.

Another important concept is that of usability which is used to describe the extent to which a product (e.g., device, service, environment) can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context of use.

Jay™ wants to be both an accessible and usable instrument.

Jay™ has been developed by DotVocal, Italian company specialized in the development of vocal and multimodal applications, in partnership with MicroEra, Italian partner successfully involved in IT consulting and application software development, based in Turin.

Top destinations for DDLD consultants and clients are Lombardy & Tuscany (Italy), Paris & Nice (France), Barcelona (Spain). For those who has never been to those cities, please find further details below for your reference :

ITALY

Italian fashion needs no introduction in haute couture’s International markets, a growing number of showrooms is inaugurated in the great world metropolises: from the States to the Far East Italian designers invade the market

Duomo-Milan, Italy

1) Lombardy is one of the 20 regions of Italy. The capital is Milan (refer to the picture as above) which is also recognised as a  world fashion and design. One-sixth of Italy’s population lives in Lombardy and about one fifth of Italy’s GDP is produced in this region, making it the most populous and richest region in the country. Major tourist destinations in the region include the historic, cultural and artistic cities of Milan (which is Italy’s second top tourist destination),Brescia, Mantua, Pavia, Cremona and Bergamo and the lakes Garda, Como, Maggiore and Iseo.

Baptistry and Duomo-Florence, Italy

2) Tuscany is a region in Central of Italy. The capital is Florence (refer to the picture  as  above). Tuscany is known for its beautiful landscapes, its rich artistic legacy and vast influence on high culture and in the fashion industry too. Speaking of Italian Style we must also speak of “Tuscany style”, a region in which some of the major designers of Italian fashion have their headquarters, whether historical or “up-and-coming”, they all follow an exponential growth.

Tuscan brands, the first historical one dates back to 1921 when Guccio Gucci opened in Florence his first suitcase and horse-riding items craftsman shop. Only about ten years later shops open in Rome and Milan and the first showroom in America in 1953 in Manhattan, thus consecrating the designer label Gucci among the pioneers of Italian Style abroad.

The Ferragamo label has a peculiar history. The maison is founded in 1927 by Salvatore Ferragamo - originally from Irpinia - who, once back in Italy, establishes himself in Florence where he opens in the Spini Ferroni Palace - the one that still today is the brand’s headquarters - his first shop. The decision is encouraged by a positive experience in Hollywood in the creation and production of shoes models for cinema stars and important public figures. Today, the Ferragamo label is known throughout the world, not just for its clothing but also for its collections of suitcases, perfumes and eyeglasses.

And to speak of those less historical labels - simply out of a pure reference to the founding year of the maison - we can speak of the explosive and innovative Roberto Cavalli, a pure-blood Florentine who arrives on International fashion catwalks with clothing and then expands his maison’s offer looking at furniture as well.

FRANCE

French fashion sets the trend with icon brands such as Chanel, Christian Dior, Hermes, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent.

The Eiffel Tower-Paris, France

1) Paris is the capital and primate city of France. It is situated on the river Seine, in northern France, at the heart of the Ile-de-France region or Paris region. The city of Paris  is one of the most populated metropolitan areas in Europe. Paris is today one of the world’s leading business and cultural centres, and its influence in fashion, science, politics, education, entertainment, media and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the world’s major global cities.

Paris  is one of the city which held the world most prominent fashion weeks,  approximately one week of fashion industry event which allows fashion designers, brands or “houses” to display their latest collections in runway shows and buyers to take a look at the latest trends.

Port of Nice, France

2) Nice is a city in southern France located on the Mediterranean coast, between Marseille and Genoa. The city is a major tourist center and a leading resort on the French Riviera. After Paris, Nice is France’s premier spot to see and generally associated with shopping for exclusive chic clothes, but the multitude of boutiques and wide range of goods promise excellent bargains to all shoppers, regardless of the style and price-level they prefer.

SPAIN

Spanish fashion is in short a wondrous medley of beauty, style, lines, cuts and silhouettes in myriads of colors and bold striking prints. The Spanish brands such as Custo Barcelona, Balenciaga, Zara, Mango, Inditex, Cortefiel and El Corte Ingle, have taken the entire world fashion industry by a storm.

La Sagrada Famiglia-Barcelona, Spain

1) Barcelona is the capital and the most populous city of the Autonomous Community of Catalonia and the second largest city in Spain. Located on the Mediterranean coast between the mouths of the rivers Llobregat and Besos and is bounded to the west by the Serra de Collserola. Also recognised as a global city because of its importance in finance, commerce, media, entertainment, arts and international trades. Barcelona is an important cultural centre and a major tourist destination and has a rich cultural heritage.

LOUIS VUITTON

Stock of Louis Vuitton? Kindly note that stock from the past season collections and overstock of Louis Vuitton are NOT available in the market. Louis Vuitton products are SOLD EXCLUSIVELY at Louis Vuitton stores.

Louis Vuitton which is one of the most famous brand name of luxuries goods in the world, was established in 1854. It is now affiliated with the group of Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton in France which is specializing in high-class luxuries goods. At the very beginning , the leather cases of Louis Vuitton are inlaid with the grey-colored canvas, In 1896, georges, the son of Louis Vuitton, combining the initials of his father “L&V” with the flower pattern , designed the world renowned monogram canvas pattern. Consequently, it’s registered brand name “monogram” formally comes into effect from that year. After decades years of development, the reputation of vouis vuitton has not only been spreading over the whole European countries, but also been the symbol of delicate and refined traveling articles.

Louis Vuitton first entered the fashion world with their luggage line. In the age where more people were beginning to travel on cruise ships and trains and with the invention of the car, Louis Vuitton created a large flat case, a steamer bag and a large overnight bag called a Keepall. Their luggage range now contains travel accessories such as garment carriers, travel trunks, flight bags, laptop cases, vanity cases, dog carriers, hat boxes, jewellery cases, golf bags, diaper bags and passport covers. Louis Vuitton is also a coveted handbag designer. In 1896 the now famous monogram canvas was created by George, Louis Vuitton’s son. A print so popular that it was redesigned in 2003 in multicolour by Takashi Murakami and in 1999 in a miniature version of the print called the Mini Lin Monogram. In 2004 the Damier Géant collection was launched, a canvas made from technical fibres identical to those used for climbing ropes. In 1998 Marc Jacobs joined Louis Vuitton as their Artistic Director and created the Monogram Vernis line, embossed patent leather in a variety of colours.

Among so many secrets of Louis Vuitton’s success, one of them is that Louis Vuitton highly respects and treasures it’s brand name. Louis Vuitton is not just named by its initiator, what’s more, it inherits the attitude of “in ever-lasting pursuit of quality”of its creator. Starting from its second generation inheritors, its subsequent inheritors are all dedicated to add new connotations to its brand name. The second generation brings about the international vision and touch for the brand name. The third generation Gaston L. Vuitton also brings about the new image of loving life, valuing creation power and concept for the brand name.

So far, there has been six generations who have been working for this brand name. Not only the familial offspring, for every designer and any other staffs who want to work in this familial group, they all have to have a clear understanding of the history of Louis Vuitton. What’s more, they have to comprehend its unique “DNA”and give full play to its unique culture in the process of its work and in the operation of its brand name. Another secret of Louis Vuitton’s success is that it’s committed to create an atmosphere of “family”for its highly-respected customers. Can you imagine a brand name which can provide the perpetual maintenance service for its customers? The products of Louis Vuitton can just achieve the goal that one can pass on one product of Louis Vuitton from grandmother to mother, from mother to daughter. No matter in what time your products need repairing and maintaining, the franchised store will do the service for you at short notice. One product which can be successively owned by three generations of the same lineage, it has very special significance for the continuation of its brand name.

GUCCI

Guccio Gucci was born in 1881 as the son of a modest craftsman. He spent most of his childhood years contented that he’d follow in his father’s footsteps. But after honing his talents for crafting leather goods, Gucci decided to open a saddle shop, where he began to sell his leather goods to the public. Gucci’s clientele admired his keen eye for detail. During the 1920s, he began to fashion leather bags and sell them to various horsemen. Eventually, he progressed to high-end leather luggage after the horseback riders went the way of the horseless carriage. Gucci quickly became a recognized name throughout Italy, and in 1938 he opened his first retail shop on the Via Condotti in Rome. For the next decade, Gucci’s brand became one of the finest in the country, and began to receive worldwide acclaim for the unmistakable craftsmanship. 1947 was the year Gucci introduced their iconic handbag, a leather bag with a bamboo handle. This bag single handedly launched the Gucci rush, and during the 1950s, the trademark red striped webbing (how Gucci is characterized today) was introduced. Guccio spent the first few years of the 50s solidifying his place in the fashion world. His family took over the successful company after Gucci’s death in 1953. The new structure and multiple brains behind the everyday operations decided that Paris, London, Palm Beach, Tokyo, and Beverly Hills were the next logical stops along the road. By 1970, Gucci had become a worldwide empire. Their superstardom is in part due to Hollywood stars like Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy, who proudly adorned Gucci shoulder bags during the 1960s. Subsequently, the Gucci bag became known simply as the “Jackie O.” Gucci, through all of their massive success, weren’t without their fair share of turmoil during their meteoric rise to fame. Even though the company was doing well, the family seemed to argue over the slightest indifference. Maurizio Gucci took over the ailing business from his brother, only to sell it to an Arabian businessman during the 1980s. Tom Ford, Gucci’s newest executive in the 1990s, worked to purchase the Gucci name and take the company to never before seen heights. The Gucci brand of today is a far cry from the handbag distributors of old. The Gucci brand sells perfume, cologne, full wardrobes, sunglasses, shoes, and other accessories. They’re constantly atop the fashion world’s list of biggest sellers.

PRADA

Prada is a symbol of style and luxury for designer handbags and fabulous shoes. Born nearly a century ago, The House of Prada is recognized worldwide for its simple and elegant creations. Mario Prada started the Prada label in 1913. He designed and sold handbags, shoes, trunks, and suitcases though two boutiques in Milan, and had clients across Europe and the US. When the signature Prada suitcase, made from heavy, cumbersome walrus skin, proved to be ill suited for air travel, Prada concentrated on designing exquisite leather accessories and waterproof handbags. In 1978, Mario’s granddaughter, Miuccia Prada, took over the company. Miuccia was a former mime who had spent five years studying at Milan’s Teatro Piccolo, and had a PhD in political science. Although her qualifications didn’t seem appropriate, her sense of fashion was unmistakable. The label was still mainly a leather goods manufacturer at that point, and had been struggling financially for several years. Competition from other fashion houses like Gucci had taken its toll. Miuccia turned things around and steered the House of Prada towards the world of haute couture. About the same time as she took the helm of the Prada label, Miuccia married Patrizio Bertelli. Bertelli took on the role of business manager, allowing Miuccia to focus on designing and perfecting the new Prada look. Miuccia had been making black waterproof backpacks since 1970, out of a nylon fabric called “Pocone”. She unveiled the classic Prada handbag which was simple, sleek, black nylon, and in 1985 it became an overnight sensation. The bag was functional and sturdy, practical and fashionable. The high price tag that accompanied the handbags caused an onslaught of designer knock-offs, which only helped to make the genuine Prada articles more in demand. In the 1980’s, other labels were creating designs that played on sexuality. Frilly, lacy, brightly colored garments that were low cut on top and short on the bottom were popular. Prada hit the runway in 1989 with its pret-a-porter collection, with elegant, simple pieces featuring clean lines, luxurious fabrics, and basic colors. The fashion world took notice, and Prada’s popularity skyrocketed. By the 1990’s, Prada was a leading force in fashion. The garments and accessories were smart, sophisticated, and extremely high quality. Luxurious fabrics and simple styles, mostly in blacks, browns, grays, greens, and creams, became the signature Prada look. The apparel was sexy and spoke of confidence without revealing too much skin. Accessories included skinny leather belts, elegant high heeled shoes, and of course, the classic handbag. In 1992, Miuccia presented the more affordable Miu Miu line, which targeted a younger consumer. More flowing shapes and earthy colors and prints set this collection apart, although the simple designs and classic appearance continued the quality of the Prada label. Soon after, the Prada Sport label was created, followed by a line of men’s wear and a lingerie collection. The following year, in 1993, Prada received the Council of Fashion Designers of America award for accessories. The Prada look has certainly evolved over the years, and Miuccia is credited with many innovations in fabric and design. She has added everything from mirror fragments to beaded latex to her garments, and experimented with new and unique fabric blends. Even with all of this experimentation however, the caliber of the finished product has never wavered. Since then, Prada has gone on to open boutiques in dozens of cities and countries across the globe. Their shoes for men and women have become a staple for fashion enthusiasts and celebrities alike, and those extraordinary handbags are still wildly popular. The distinct silver Prada triangle is a status symbol all over Europe and North America.

DOLCE & GABBANA

Dolce & Gabbana is based in Milan, Italy and operates under the leadership of founders Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.

After starting his design career by working in his father’s clothing business, Dolce moved on to study fashion design. He became an assistant designer in a Milan workshop in 1980, where he met Gabbana. It was a fateful meeting and in 1982, with a small investment, they opened their own studio in Milan

Starting out as freelancers, their first breakthrough in came in 1985 when they were chosen to display their work at the Milano Collezioni event. The bold and sexual nature of their designs made an immediate impression and cemented the Dolce & Gabbana name in fashion circles. The following year they introduced their first “ready to wear” women’s line. Drawing inspiration from the Italian film industry and blending their own Mediterranean spirit with English eccentricity, they were directed more towards making women look sexy then setting trends.

In 1987, the first Dolce & Gabbana showroom was opened in Milan. They went from strength to strength in the late 80s thanks in a large part to endorsements from stars like Isabella Rossellini. Celebrities like Madonna and Whitney Houston also began showing interest in their increasingly more sensual designs It was Dolce and Gabbana in fact who created the costumes for Madonna’s Girlie Show in 1993 and Whitney’s 1999 tour.

New markets were introduced to the Dolce & Gabbana phenomenon when the company’s first franchise store opened in Japan in 1989. The late 80s and early 90s saw the addition of swimwear to their range, as well as a men’s collection. Expansion into scarves and ties came next, and in 1992 they unveiled their first branded perfume. A year later footwear and men’s underwear were added to the company’s growing product line.

A new line directed at a wider and younger market was launched as D&G Dolce & Gabbana and was quickly followed with the opening of specialized boutiques and the introduction of an eyewear line in the late nineties. Innovation and diversification continued in 2000 when the company created a leather and footwear division, as well as launching a collection of luxury watches. A line of children’s clothing was then introduced in 2001.

Today Dolce & Gabbana, under the guidance of its ambitious and confident owners, continues to expand aggressively and has firmly established itself as one of the world’s leading and most respected Fashion Houses. Considered by many to be the most powerful and influential designers of our time, their clients include some of the best dressed people in the world.
