Leading designers from New York, Los Angeles, and abroad showed their collections to a packed and fully attended audience in downtown Los Angeles November 2-5, in conjunction with KORNIT FASHION WEEK LA, brought to Los Angeles by famed Israeli television, fashion show and documentary producer, Motty Reif. 

From the Studio 54 Christopher Street pride parade of Julia Clancy’s roller disco streetball; the retro drama of vintage-inspired silhouettes of Oliver Tolentino cocktail dresses; New York designer, Drue Bekemberg gave men’s suiting a fresh new twist with a mod detailing and classic styles;  the “Metropolis” like avant-garde expressionism from Aliona Kononova’s “Goddess Reborn” performance had models performing an interpretive dance ensemble that culminated in a performance prop that turned into the piece de resistance final look.  Asher Levine’s glow in the dark embellishments lit up the stage literally and figuratively and Jolleson, who has designed for some of the top hip hop divas such as Cardi B, Megan The Stallion, Normani and Nicki Minaj, played with metallics, beading and cut away.  And established designers such as Ungaro (designed by Kobi Halperin) and designer Kobi Halperin himself, both showcased travel-inspired flowy and graceful spring floral and ethnic prints on 70’s inspired bodies: sheath dresses, skirts, belled sleeves and ruffles.

Spotted among the audience throughout the week were such notables as Janelle Monae, Eva LaRue, Rae Dawn Chong along with father Tommy, Anne Heche and Jaime King.  Designer runways were walked by the likes of Gia Gunn, Lisa Edelstein, Linda Gray, Donna Mills and performances by sultry singer Tanerelle and DJ/Socialite Caroline D'Amore entertained audiences during the runway presentation.

Intentionally stepping away from the standard norm, which has become cliché and generic, every woman from a size 2 to size 24, felt welcomed and represented during the debut of KORNIT FASHION WEEK LA with plus size models and women over 50 years of age sharing the catwalk with runway models whose skin tones ranged from alabaster to ebony.  

With sustainability being a key factor, each designer exacted the use of Kornits highly technical textile digital printing process, which does not use water and reduces carbon footprinting. Using this groundbreaking and revolutionary printing process, designers from NY, LA, EU and Israel, showed their creativity in design and original presentation over a span of 4 days with over 400 looks shown to guests and buyers in attendance.
