About the LA Fashion Awards:
Saturn presents the 2006 LA Fashion Awards with Los Angeles magazine on October 20 at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles. LA Fashion Awards, LLC was established in 2005 by Mary Hill and Jennifer Uner to produce this annual event that celebrates the emerging talent, rising stars and leading brands of the Southern California fashion industry. Moss Adams LLC, the largest accounting firm headquartered on the West Coast and creator of the Moss Adams Fashion Innovator Award in 2003, is the founding sponsor of the LA Fashion Awards.
The goal of the LA Fashion Awards is to increase awareness of Los Angeles as the global fashion center that contributes the greatest influence on contemporary style around the world. Apparel is the #1 manufacturing activity in the LA area, employing more people than any other sector. LA is home to the entertainment industry, which transmits more fashion via movies, television, and celebrity-culture than any other medium. Yet the LA fashion industry talent that contributes to this global style phenomenon remains largely unrecognized and un-credited. The LA Fashion Awards honors these talents and supplies the names to know and the brands to watch for the future of fashion.
