Thanks to its unique blend of cultural influences and artistic industry, the City of Angels has earned its place alongside these traditional creative capitals - and FASHION IN LA goes beyond the red carpet to profile more than 40 designers instrumental to its success. It’s a who’s-who of talent, a true insider’s guide to the men and women who have put twenty-first century Los Angeles on the world’s fashion map.
