All Saints
One of today’s fashion bellwethers is Stuart Trevor the progenitor and designer of AllSaints. AllSaints is a British fashion retailer headquartered in Spitalfields, London, UK. AllSaints now sells menswear, womenswear, footwear, and appurtenants in 35 department stores and 65 stand-alone stores across the UK, Europe, Canada and the Amalgamated States.

AllSaints is kenned for offering sharp edge, directional habiliments with a muted palette dominated by blacks, browns, whites, and grays. In reviews by fashion and style upbraiders, AllSaints' habiliments have variously been described as "British chic rock 'n' roll", a "romantically pre-aged look...that evokes the past and a post-apocalyptic future".

AllSaints Spitalfields has had a connection to popular culture since its founding in 1994 when it was designated after a famous London street. Puerile American and British celebrities are visually perceived and photographed wearing AllSaints habiliments to events and entering or leaving AllSaints stores. By mid-2004, AllSaints had expanded to 10 stores in the UK and was poised to launch its childrenswear line. Between mid-2004 and the terminus of 2005, controversial fashion financier Kevin Stanford, co-progenitor of womenswear chain Karen Millen, bought out each of AllSaints partners besides Stuart Trevor, thus acquiring a majority stake in the company. Conclusively in December 2005, Stanford bought out Trevor's stake in the company as well. In 2006, AllSaints sold a 35% stake in the company to Icelandic investment firm, Baugur Group, with Kevin Stanford as the majority shareholder. In tardy 2006, the company launched its e-commerce website.

AllSaints Spitalfields rapidly expanded globally in 2009-10. That same year the company launched its U.S.-concrete e-commerce site and opened its first U.S. store in Incipient York City. Starting in 2009, AllSaints opened stores all across the Cumulated States; including Incipient York, Boston,

    Throughout Saints at the River there are many uses of symbolism in the novel. One of the main uses of symbolism is the Ghost that is brought up several times throughout the novel.

    Organizational processing, whether in the criminal justice or health care systems, tends to produce some taken-for-granted assumptions about all of the people processed. These assumptions are frequently held just as often by lay people as by professionals. It is believed that persons processed by these systems share a set of common characteristics. They are alike, not only in the offenses they have committed, but in other significant social respects as well. And, in turn, they are markedly dissimilar from all members of conventional society.…

    In the article “Saints and the Roughnecks” by William J. Chambliss, he examines two groups of delinquent high school aged boys, and labeled the eight upper-class boys the “Saints”, and the six lower-class boys the “Roughnecks”. Although the groups had a fairly equal amount of lawlessness, the groups were treated unequally by the community because of the labeling theory. The inequality had an effect on both group’s high school and post high school way of life.…
