Los Angeles Fashion Week
October 11th – 15th, 2017
Style Fashion Week at the Pacific Design Center
8687 Melrose Ave. West Hollywood
The second night of Style Fashion Week Los Angeles drew a crowd, as international designers swarmed the runway. Kicking off the night were the designs of Natalia Garcia’s KK Swimwear, whose collection drew inspiration from the French designers and glamour queens of the mid 1900’s. The swimwear collection, dawning many styles, was ornamented in pink and polka dots. Following KK Swimwear was Michelle Ann, who fearlessly made her way to Los Angeles to showcase her designs after facing the devastation of hurricane Maria in her home of Puerto Rico.
Her collection was inspired by the elegance and beauty of Castle Santa Catalina in Puerto Rico—but what was truly inspiring was her perseverance and grace in the times of hardship. Closing the first segment of shows were the couture children’s’ designs of Ydamys Simo. While Simo’s infinite inspiration is her daughter, Ynairaly Simo, last night’s collection was inspired by the gardens and flowers that transmit the beauty of the spring and summer seasons.
