Fashion Week El Paseo is known as “the best of the West”. Each year it features established and emerging west coast designers. One of the most highly anticipated highlights of this fashion week is the annual runway show that features top graduating students from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles. This show gives young designers the chance to debut their collections and for fashionistas to get the first look at designer that could go on to be leaders in the industry.
The fashion week takes place in the big white tent located in the heart of the El Paseo shopping district. The area features fashion forward boutiques and upscale eateries and has been compared to Rodeo Drive.
