Fashion designers are more in demand than ever before. Since the inception of fashion-related reality TV shows like “America’s Next Top Model” and “Project Runway,” the public has become obsessed with what it takes to be a fashion designer, and we are, too! Right here in Southern California, we found our Top Four Trending Now, locally grown, up-and-coming talents who live, breath and eat fashion and are quickly making their mark in the industry. These busy designers took time out of their schedules to give us the 411 on what they are working on and who they’re designing for. Check out these interviews for insight on these artists’ trendiest fashion tips. 94 |
