L.A. Fashion Corner’s 2010 Eco-Friendly Fashion Show-Combining Style with Ecology
The fashion extravaganza, produced by F.A.M.E. and hosted by Leyla Milani, titled “It’s Caring with Style,” featured eco-friendly fashion designs and sustainable products from today’s hottest designers and exhibitors.
Being Green can be fun and fashionable. L.A. Fashion Corner Eco-Friendly Fashion Show 2010 on Wednesday, April 21st, was a feast for the eyes. Models strutted in designs made with modern organic fabric by 20 designers and boutiques, including Emel and international clothing company, Brit Boy. Designers took the opportunity to prove that eco-friendly fashion goes beyond t-shirts and jeans. “We’re raising awareness for the importance of sustainability products that are recycled and are manufactured here in the U.S.,” said London Moore, CEO, Celebrity Nightlife Publicity Inc. and driving force of LA Fashion Corner Inc. and F.A.M.E. (Fashion, Art, Music, Entertainment.) “A lot of these products that are available can be purchased here in The States and are made from bamboo and recycled fabrics.”

The fashions featured uniquely cut dresses with both solid and floral prints, jackets, belts, and colorful hand bags. “I think showcasing the designers and giving them some notoriety for their efforts in using eco-friendly products is special,” said Moore, when asked what made the event special. “There’s so few of them, so it gave them a chance and a platform to showcase their products. Every designer walked away excited about the event and pleased, and that, in my opinion was the best part of it.”
The event was a gathering of Hollywood talent under one roof to showcase the fusion of art and awareness, just in time for Earth Day. Painted and multi-media art pieces were up for exhibition. Artists were Harout Demirchyan, Arpine Rurundzhyan, Polet Zakarian, and Lousine Karibian. Fashion coordinator, Parris Harris, was found in the event’s art exhibit before the fashion show and took a minute to interview with The Scoop LA about turning fashion and art, Green. “F.A.M.E. decided to produce a fashion show because Green consciousness has become trendy and a way of life”, says Harris. Game show “Deal Or No Deal’s” Leyla Milani was the host of the evening and one of many sponsors by way of Milani Hair, her new line of women’s clip-in hair extensions. Find Milani Hair at www.milanihair.com. The night’s guest performances were by dance troupe, Groovaholix, and pop singer, Djoir Jordan to sing her single, “Hollywood.”

The Art Institute Hollywood’s Annual Student Fashion Show
By Buddy Sampson
The Art Institute of California-Hollywood gave an amazing tribute to red carpets everywhere-to Hollywood, to Cannes; to any locale where there’s a red carpet to be viewed and the correlation it has to fashion. The event, The Art Institute of California Hollywood Annual Student Fashion Show was held at, perhaps the grand locale for red carpets, The Grauman’s (Mann) Chinese Theater. It was presented by students from the Art Institute and was as elegant and eye catching as any fashion event ever presented. The Scoop LA has attended many fashion shows over the years and it was as entertaining and professional as any fashion show we’ve attended.
The Passion For Fashion winners were Danna Darma, Adrienne Koppel, Lionel Siongco, Helen Malveaez and Geena Andrews. But all of the students that participated were winners in that they clearly demonstrated they had the tools to be successful in the Fashion Industry. Alita Campbell, the Director of the Fashion Design Program addressed the audience and then the show started. And it was grand.
Sara Caterinicchia was the first designer that presented her fashions and she started her portion of the show with a small young girl in a beautiful red dress, followed by a young blond boy in a hat and gray jacket. Another young girl followed in a pink dress, and a little boy came out dressed in black with a pink tie. Pink seemed to be the color as another young lady came out in a pink, layered dress. Sara is a very talented designer and she rocked the stage as well, dressed in a brilliant black dress.
Next up was designer Linda Miller. Her motif was kids’ fashion. Her style was funky, hip-hop and punky looks, very cool and hip. She was dressed impeccably and could have modeled herself. Yuki Haya’s designs were for the ladies, very cool, elegant and sexy. A short and sexy dress with red polka dots was a favorite of The Scoop LA. Designer Christel Infante’s designs were next, and her designs were perhaps the most elegant of the evening. It was splendid eveningwear and brought oohs and ahhs from the audience. It was lots of black dresses, with subtle colors. She’s an incredible talent. Altha St. Clair III followed, and his clothing was New Age, and avante garde- vest dresses, platform shoes and costumes that seemed to be tailor made for the stage. Hye Eun Kim’s fashions were next and her designs had a cultural, decidedly Asian flair-New Age, loads of color with bright greens, reds and bronzes. The designs were spectacular.
Nina Patel’s designs consisted of elegant evening wear and tropics-oriented pieces. Some of her designs were attire you’d see in pageants. Antonia Souza’s designs were spotlighted next and all we can say is wow! Lots of black and New Age stuff. Elegant eveningwear with flashes of color was the topic of Falavia Otis’ portion of the show. Short, sexy and classy along with evening gowns made her segment a hit. Amanda Mixson followed and her fashions were brave, innovative and daring. She had tutu-like dresses, white knee high stockings and outrageous shoes. Her fashions are not for the faint of heart and definitely not for the person that wants to sneak in an event unnoticed. Amanda wore perhaps the best outfit of her segment, sashaying on the stage in an outfit that wowed the audience. Sarah Hunter’s segment had lots of bright colors-bright oranges and sleek lines. The first outfit in her segment was the best, a dress with a lovely train to its gown, quintessential eveningwear. Sarah is quite an exceptional talent. Quynh Le’s fashions were very simple, classic cocktail dresses, with varying lengths and various colors.
Jannette Goss’s segment consisted of sophisticated eveningwear; classic looks for all kinds of evening and night events. Ashley Turabaz’ fashions comprised the classic eveningwear of the 60’s, very Jayne Mansfield-like and very, very sexy. Some of the dresses had ornate trains. Red carpet looks were featured in Liz Kok’s set. You could wear her designs on a red carpet or at a fundraiser. One of her outfits drew a huge response from the well-attended audience as the blouse was completely see through. Very, very sexy. M. Sonia Moreno’s looks had a rock edge to it- very funky stage stuff. Her fashions included designs for plus size models. She also had men’s wear, one of the few designers that had designs for males. Seng Nan Dayu’s segment had classic 60’s lines with bright blues, gowns and bright reds. Her designs were classic and elegant. Masai Payan closed the designer portion of the evening with lots of silks, red and blue dresses. She had a few great innovations, particularly a black and white gown that closed his segment.
But the evening wasn’t over. The Institute event had a “Passion for Fashion” segment that had terrific innovations. There was also a Costume Class that was based on styles from the 16th and 17th century. The models were stunning and the students’ designs were nothing short of incredible.
This event illustrated the value of The Art Institute’s contribution to society by recognizing talent and cultivating higher learning for success in creative endeavors. Encourage young people to grow and learn their craft by supporting The Art Institute of California-Hollywood.

LA Fashion Week Spotlights Talented Designers
By Buddy Sampson
Los Angeles is widely known as a laid back region of the country with beach shorts and bikini girls. But it is also a Mecca of fashion that stands up to the fashion centers and cities of the world, including Paris, Milan and New York. Each year, Los Angeles displays its ebullient sense of style with LA Fashion Week, which takes place in the month of October, with events in Downtown Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Hollywood and other locales in the Los Angeles and adjacent areas.

One of the many events was an event at The Downtown Los Angeles Fashion Week at The GEFFEN Contemporary @ MOCA featuring a sensational designer of hats, Alakazia. He presented his collection, “Le Chapeau by ALAKAZIA” a fashion statement for 2010, “The Couture Hat Collection.” It was composed of Italian tissues, adorned with hand carved and hand spun trims. Produced by Deanna Zaccari and styled by Anthony Bradshaw, the collection was one of several eye-popping designs that graced the evening at the Downtown location.
Fashion Minga, which took place at the Boulevard 3 in Hollywood, featured several amazing designers including Leone Barezzi, who will be having a show spotlighting his work in Santa Barbara in November. “I deal with fashions from the 1940’s, from the 1920’s- very glamorous,” said Barezzi. “Like the golden era, like film, like Mexico and here in Hollywood. I like to bring that again in fashion. Visit his website, www.leonebarezzi.com for more information. Many designers exhibited their works. Some of them included Jazmin Whitley of the Li Cari fashion house, Urban Republic Clothing, Celebrity Pink Jeans, Nuvula, Miasma Designs and Jackie Christie, www.jackiechristie.com, wife of NBA great Doug Christie, CEO of Christie Sports Management, www.dougchristie.com. “My wife is re-launching her line this week at Fashion Week here in LA,” said Doug Christie at a function actress Lisa Raye put on in Hollywood. “So we have a lot going on.”

Fashion Minga featured a fine mixture of performance meets fashion, with Xcedera, The MartianZ, Sara Silken, Groovaholix, Dancing Spiral, The Hollywood Hot Shots and an exciting dance group that appeared on “America’s Got Talent,” Extreme Dance FX. “We do a style of dance that’s a mix of hip hop and tap dancing called power step” said Valerie Ramirez. The group opened the show, and electrified the audience. While waiting for each fashion show, guests were treated to rooms and areas with different kinds of food. A favorite was a room that featured sushi, with a nude young lady with leaves covering her private parts. Guests retrieved sushi off the leaves and the room was a hit with male and female guests alike.
Among the many celebrities in attendance were a few soap opera stars including Kate Linder of the hit TV series, The Young and the Restless, who came to support what was the most entertaining fashion presentation of the night. “I’m here for Tal Sheyn,” said Linder. “She designed my gown for The Daytime Emmys that I wore. She designs for the individual and what looks good on that particular person and what not might be the latest trend. Even though it might be in, it might not look good on that particular individual.” Tal Sheyn’s Designs, www.DesignbyTalSheyn.com, easily the most elegant and breathtaking collection of the night, drew oohs and ahs from the audience. Sheyn, born in Israel, has designed for some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, including Paris Hilton, Ashton Kutcher and Mina Suvari.

Very informative post. Thanks for taking the time to share your view with us.
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
taking time and real effort to make a good post. Cool!
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
I love Prom . I had spent months preparing for that day. From my dress, shoe makeup etc everything I had planned well in advance. Luckily I have an elder sis who was experienced and help look my best that day.
Maintain up the outstanding work mate. This weblog publish shows how well you comprehend and know this subject.
“Wow, thank you a bunch m8”
Great post, thanks for sharing. In the advent that you should ever need help managing your reputation online, the reputation management pros at reputation repair have you covered. Check them out today.
Hi, Would it be possible to utilize this brilliant posting on my website? I would naturally link back to you. Let me find out what you decide to do.
just added you to my list of blogs worth checkinh out
If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
This really is genuinely great idea dude.iam actually proud of you .
Do u have twitter?? i desire to comply with you .thx
Wow, what an amazing article! Thanks so much for your fantastic writing, i’ve bookmarked your site so I can stay up to date with your stuff.
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
I was doing silk’n hair removal applications for at least a year now on my facial beard. Before I had quite a thicker dark beard. I’m excited about the results. The hairs are extremely thin and I have not gone back for treatment in around six months. I am going to mention that it did feel painful a little on my upper lip and there were definitely times when I had a bit of redness on my neck. I recommend Ipl to those with thick hairs or have got big sections of hair they really want to remove. For the men that want to do their own tough facial hair be prepard for spots within the coming months and lots of people saying man what is wrong with your facial hair.
Your simplest approach to get full laser hair treatment within driving distance is referral and rather than through an physician that’s getting a piece of the action. I used to visit an Physician to have laser light treatments. I had spotty hairy areas and had already been thru all of those other hair removal treatments. I got myself the silk’n and haven’t been more happy. At last I’m hair free for the summertime. This will likely to be a splendid year for me.
I had been originally treated by using Ipl which isn’t the best method for laser hair removal. I started off with whole leg hair removal. I visited a good Dr . that used an older lazer device yet ended up with with blotchy places. Then I decided to purchase a silk n. I am pleased and will be going on to different regions of my body soon. The costs as well fit my expense plan which is really a tremendous advantage.
I like your blog – nice work!
Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this also – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get anything done… Regards
Your simplest method to locate ipl or laser hair treatment in the area is definitely word of mouth and rather than from some physician who is receiving a portion of the pie. I used to visit an Dr . for laser treatments. I had blotchy hairy areas and had been through all of those other hair removal techniques. I purchased a new tria laser hair removal system and have not been more pleased. At long last I’m hair free for the summer season time. This will likely to be a great yr for me.
Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.
