Fashion Week LA?
November 25, 2009

Twice a year, LA hosts what they call “Fashion Week.” First off, y’all know I rep LA 4 life. Second, LA houses some of the best designers around the globe. However (you knew there was going to be one of those…) LA can’t seem to get it right in bringing the cache in fashion shows. We have no Bryant park, rather we have Smashbox studios. For the past decade, I’ve been checking out what GEN ART is all about. They do some pretty cool things in the not-for-profit sector allowing designers to showcase what they got. Last week, I headed to the Peterson Auto museum for the annual show. I’m not one of those front seat snobs. I just like to chill and observe. Kinda like these heads.

Here we go…

Gen Art likes to mix things up. Typically they only have one men's designer and the rest female. This one designer (whom I forget the name) did things a little differently. Check the line up.

If you look closer, you can tell she has a certain “something” going on.

Plastics were the presenting sponsor and I must say that you can do lots of interesting things with it.

This is how my girl's closet looks at home. We have live model's standing there showcasing what it would look like.

I think I like this one.

When you head to shows like this, you’ll see all types of life, mostly peeps that want to be seen and heard. However it was cool to see some familiar faces. Fashionista Attorney to the Industry, G-dub (Is that a popped collar or are you just happy to see me?) and Senior Editorial Honcho, Alice, from Cal Apparel News.

I think it's getting past my bedtime. On my way out of the Peterson Auto Museum, something caught my eye. Oh hell yes.

Not my thing, but pretty neat

Looks mean

Next time you're in the area, please stop by LACMA and check out Chris Burden's Urban Light project.

An LA standard.
