Who are the ‘ones to watch’? The next generation of emerging designers who have got the edge [EDGE] are, quite simply, coming from the art and fashion schools.
The Art Institute of California showcased, what I would call, the ‘next generation’ of designers at the Art Hearts Fashion, international fashion week production, in Los Angeles. Here are my designer pics that represent the EDGE philosophy of artistry, imagination, and creativity of fashion. These emerging designers have executed a tight, cohesive collection with a story that represents glamour, wear-ability, and a bit of boldness! They’ve got the edge and potential to push the boundaries, design with an ‘out-of-the-box” mindset, giving fashion a reason to be relevant, yet progressive and forward thinking.
Congratulations to all!
