Hope in the City - Wear your Story.



I'm so excited to be involved with Hope in the City again this year. Its a Fashion Show event that myself and my friends organize. Its part of LA Fashion Week this year. I've been organizing the experimental section of the event. Where we asked 20 designers to make a garment out of paper using LA Weekly magazines. Can't wait to show you the images of the event.
If you happen to be in the LA area on March 24th please come and support the event. All the details can be found on the website.

Hope in the City




Last year I helped organise an event in downtown LA called Hope in the City. It was a group of designers who created pieces of fashion from a bag of vintage clothes. This year I wasn't able to get as involved but I did create this embroidery piece to be auctioned off at art auction.
Check out my friend Rustin's photos from the shoot and also from last year's event too.

This piece was made from a bag of scrap fabrics sewn together and than hand stitching on top. I'm in the middle of making a couple more of these and will post pictures as soon as there done!
