Just For Fun

FutureFashion LA Shines

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

Take a big group of fashionistas and sprinkle in some politicians and reporters and you’ll get something a lot like FutureFashionLA, an event sponsored by the CFDA and Designers & Agents held at LA Mayor Antionio Villaraigosa’s official residence. The event focused on environmental design and showcased designers like Debra Linquist, Erica Tanov, Imitation of Christ, Rozae Nichols, Trina Turk and Trovata who each made custom looks with materials donated by Earth Pledge. Check out Stewart+Brown’s yak down shrug and mittens displayed along with a hemp silk smock dress. Hold your horses though, these styles are just a sneak peak at what our Fall collection will have to offer.

Ready for our close up, here’s a better look at the yak sweater.

Reporters were abound keeping close tabs on fresh looks.

A bit of before and after, above shows Karen’s preliminary sketch for the event that turned into the outfit shown below.
