How To Have A Career In Fashion in LA, with Who What Wear Editor in Chief Kat Collings Wolf Let's Get Dressed

    • Arts

When I moved back to Los Angeles from New York City in 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, I had no idea that I'd be finding my way into a different kind of fashion industry. What once was a fashion community that people called non-existent, or "second rate" has actually become a flourishing city of up-and-coming designers, creatives, and thought leaders. And with designers from CHANEL to Saint Laurent choosing LA as the backdrop for their celebrity events and shows, it begs the question: could LA be the next real fashion hub? Today I chat with a California native and Who What Wear Editor in Chief Kat Collings Wolf on what it's really like to build a fashion career in Los Angeles from the ground up. We talk internships, the key differences between the coastal industries, and why we think some of the top brands in the world are turning to the City of Angels for inspiration.
