Ask someone to describe what Los Angeles style is all about, and, these days, there’s no telling what they’ll say.

includes Mike Amiri of the L.A. label Amiri, whose backwoods-rough look has an air of Carhartt-meets-Saint-Laurent. It might be more sensible to describe style by the neighborhoods that define L.A.’s subculture: Brentwood conjures daytime yoga looks, while Venice Beach is the epitome of the original surf and denim look. High-powered Hollywood agents at CAA strut about in Tom Ford suits, while Beverly Hills brides wear Monique Lhuillier gowns.

Chipman is attempting to harness the power of the social-media influencers and Hollywood stylists who have been raising L.A.’s stature on the world fashion map. “Stylists have more power here than the major department stores,” the producer says. “I don’t like to compare fashion weeks because I think that’s a little tacky, but I really want L.A. Fashion Week to be L.A.-esque.”

“I’m French — I went to fashion school in Paris,” Taverniti says. “I’ve had this L.A. dream since I was a kid.” In Los Angeles, he discovered a relaxed, open-minded ethos that contrasted with the more rigid French rules to which he was accustomed. “Moving to L.A. was like breaking free,” Taverniti says.

To help with the growth, Unravel took on a financial backer with the means to produce in Italy and for that Paris show. The backer, Milan-based New Guards Group, also backs Off-White and the L.A.-skater-based Palm Angels label. There are more European connections arising each year. An Italian fabric mill Taverniti has worked with now has a laundry laboratory in Los Angeles.

“I think, in L.A., there’s a tolerance that’s a plus for me,” he notes. His early androgynous collections drew raves from American Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. His first wholesale account was San Francisco’s Wilkes Bashford. Today, Cohen’s eponymous label is sold at independent stores around the world. His shop-in-shop at Dallas’ Stanley Korshak sits opposed Brunello Cucinelli, and his collections are a fixture at Savannah in Santa Monica and A’maree’s in Newport Beach.

Illegals don't have fashion.

Don’t live in the melting pot if you don’t like the results. Same goes for the Nationalist boycotting Silicon Valley

Ted Cruz $35,000 for failing to disclose that he received loans to help finance his 2012 Senate run. Nothing like slamming a wealthy politician with a $35K fine - - which he’ll pay with other people’s money - - to teach him a lesson 🙄 Now do the Democrats.

Remember, It’s Their College Years, Not YoursThe admissions scandal hitting schools is an extreme example, but during application season many parents could use a healthy reminder to ease up on their teen. Oh shut up! Since when does the WSJ spout such liberal touchy feely claptrap. I am truly disappointed. The college admissions scandal is a chance for everyone to reflect on their college experience. I've been going through my yearbooks and drafting an expose of some thirty graduates and four professors who knowingly cheated, or covered it up. Did you send your kid's SAT prep? Then maybe you are part of the problem.
