In case you missed this week’s Fashion
Angel Awards at LA Fashion Week on Tuesday at
The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA (Museum of Contemporary
Art), there is still time to attend the other
two shows on October 14 and 15.
The three- day event is open to the public and
includes a runway showcase of three Up-and-coming
designers (we just found out sorry).
Tickets can be purchased at www.downtownlafashionweek.com
and at the door.
The pilot program sponsored by the Department
of Culture and Arts for the City of LA supports
emerging talent in the fashion industry
"Los Angeles will launch an exciting showcase
of fashion and creativity that will bring buyers
and style mavens from all over the world during
LA fashion week," Mayor Villaraigosa said.
"Our City is no longer just the fashion capital
of the West Coast; LA is one of the major fashion
capitals of the world."
The winners were chosen by a panel of judges
including designers Randolph Duke, Nony Tochterman
of Petro Zilla, Nick Verreos, Project Runway Season
3 winner Jeffrey Sebelia, Louis Verdad and contestant
Vanessa Gonzalez, of Launch My Line on BRAVO.
An homage to designer Valentino will close the
event with a vintage runway show on October 15.
The star studded event will honor actress Maria
Bello and open with a performance by singer Matt
Goss. A portion of ticket sales benefits MOCA.
