LA Fashion Week is already coming around the bend, and based on how the usual schedule plays out (generally beginning the week after Paris Fashion Week), expected dates will be approximately March 7 – 18, 2014.
LA Fashion Week is rarely a literal “week” (much like New York Fashion Week is closer to 10 days, and London is closer to 6 days). In fact, with its independent spirit, LA has more diversity of events and productions that pretty much anywhere else. So we can expect a number of presentations from production entities as far-ranging as Men’s Fashion Week LA, Project Ethos, Africa Fashion Week LA, and many, many independent designers who showcase at galleries and other venues around town.
Much like New York and London, Los Angeles’ fashion week is rarely (if ever) a literal “week.”
