Everyday Casual Dresses. While floor-length dresses used to be associated with formal evening wear, they are now a very chic dress option for everyday wear. A very popular casual floor-length dress is the maxi dress. The maxi dress is an informal, comfortable dress that can be worn to the beach, on a date, or to the office.
The Nike Swoosh is a corporate trademark created in 1971 by Carolyn Davidson, while she was a graphic design student at Portland State University. It was here that she met Phil Knight, who was at the time teaching accounting classes at the university.
Nike had been started as Blue Ribbon Sports in 1964 and had been distributing Japanese-made sneakers in the U.S. But it was poised to start designing and making its own shoes out of a plant in Mexico. In 1972, the company first began selling shoes with the Nike name, named after the Greek goddess of victory. The company adopted the name for all its operations in 1978. As for Ms Davidson's swoosh, Phil Knight had said, 'Well, I don't love it, but maybe it will grow on me'.
