DKNY (Donna Karan New York) is a new fashion label owned by the American designer Donna Karan. Together with her husband Stephen Weiss, she founded the label in 1985 in New York, USA. Karan was born on October 2, 1948 in Forest Hills, Queens, USA. She grew up in Long Island and visited in 1966 the New Yorker artist school “Parsons – The New School For Design”.

A lot of new ideas came from Donna’s husband

Donna Karan officiated as head designer and made the characteristic style of DKNY. Her intention was to combine ease and rich elements. While she was producing her 1st collection, Donna Karan orientated herself on the requirements of her family. Especially her spouse gave her a lot of inspiration and so Donna Karan was able to release her first menswear collection “DKNY Men” in 1992.

The opening of their premier flagship store took place in London in 1997. Two years later the famous shop at 550, 7th Avenue in New York followed. At the moment, there are more than 70 DKNY stores worldwide including affiliates in China (Shanghai and Hong Kong), Canada (Montreal and Toronto) and even Dubai.

Wrist watches are an large part of the DKNY collection

From pocket watch to a fashion accessory. What was once, in the earliest years of portable watches, considered to be unsuitable for gentlemen and only for ladies, has grown nowadays into a fashion utensil that everybody has. In the meantime, the wrist watch is no longer only a instrument to tell which time it is. It is a designer piece and can indicate much more than the time.

A great deal of mechanics in a small housing

The first confirmable portable timepiece was made in 1500. This was not a wristwatch, but more of a pocket watch. Through technical advance, which made it possible for people to house mechanics in an increasingly smaller space, the required components of the clockworks were able to be brought into a manageable form. In this way, the first pocket watch was born, which at the time was still the size of an egg.

The computerized wrist watch from Japan

A totally different wristwatch came onto the market in the 1970’s from Japan, which had developed its own watch industry. The new wristwatch from Japan was no more set on a mechanical basis, but on a computerized control. This wrist watch extended its range of capability quickly. The wrist watch no more just showed the time. The tiny timepiece on the wrist now also knew the date, the day of the week and even knew whether a leap year was involved.

The wristwatch as jewelry

Nowadays, the wristwatch is no longer just a watch. The wristwatch has become a fashion accessory. Particularly Ladies watches come in all colouration and forms thinkable. One can also get harmonious watches from every fashion collection. The current watches are dominated by the correct fashion trends. Despite these different trends, there is something for every taste. The tiny watches, which need eyeglasses to tell the time, and the extraordinary large watches, which make it difficult to walk upright. In any case, one thing is sure: science is still likely to make so much progress - that the wrist watch will be seen on the wrists of people for a long time, to respond to the question as to what time it is.

My life was not meant to be hazy. I came here for a purpose, a directness of higher learning. When I took my first breath, my sight was gone. My hearing faded, my thoughts became fuzzy. I became an infant of the universe and infinitesimal baby of life. I try so hard to remember my reason for this chance encounter with the world. I choose this existence…but why? I go thru the day-to-day playground of childhood re-learning the basics, always knowing there is a driving force behind my heartbeat. I need to learn, to know…to grow. My purpose will become clearer, my driving desire stronger the harder I look. Images flicker in my projector like memory. I have done all this before. What am I to learn that I don’t already know in the essence of my soul? I remember my mother universe and my father world as great lights in the beginning. I remember mother earth and father nature when I walked this world before. What am I waiting for? I have the seeds for eternity in my soul and I am about to set them in the soil to grow along the path of enlightenment, my reason seems clear now. I am meant to make a memory of the universe for the people I touch with my being. I am not quite done with this world, but when I am it is time to release the binding strings of this life. It is time to choose another lesson on this planet, I will see you all again, for another purpose of higher learning.http://www.originalpoetry.com/before
