Ah Concept Fashion Week, for what it lacks in slick production, it makes up for in sheer talent and gumption and is home to some of my L.A favourites.

This time around, with the exception of Nami, I'd spent so much time with these collections (and their designers) that it was like going to see an old friend (literally and figuratively).

I'm always so impressed by L.A designers – from the wit and whimsy of Curly V and his hand made vinyl appliques, to the drama and glamour of the lacy maxi's and party dresses from Nami to the hot mess character collection of floral dresses loaded with sex appeal with from Jen Awad… LAFW has something for everyone and Concept is the place to the see the best and most creative of it.

Enjoy your glimpse into this world:
