	Splendid In 1992, Moise Emquies was a law school graduate waiting for the results of his California bar exam when his friend invited him to pass the time by designing a t-shirt for her clothing store. He threw himself into the project, quickly educating himself on textiles in search of the perfect rayon t-shirt on which to put his design. He found the best quality fabric that he could and his first design quickly sold out. In the meantime he landed his first job at a law firm but the success of his first foray into fashion left Emquies curious about the possibilities of designing for a living. Emquies began designing more and more t-shirts for his friend's boutique in his spare time, always trying to take fabrications to the next level. This led to the creation of his first fashion company, Leopold, which he owned for nine years. It was also through Leopold that Emquies met and hired Pamella Protzel, the woman who would become the head designer for another label he currently owns, ella moss.

	Young Fabulous and Broke What is a 20-something L.A. girl-about-town to do when she's in need of a career and a quick buck?

Inspired by the hot young things that know what's happening in fashion, Young, Fabulous, & Broke is the quintessential L.A. brand. Ranging from street-chic to loungewear, YFB is always the perfect item to slip into for a day of shopping or a night on the town. Heidi has a seventeen year history in the field of fashion.

In 1976, South African Michael Cohen came to Los Angeles from his native Cape Town to work for a British shirt company. A decade later, Cohen conceived what would become a 21-year old family company from a chance meeting with an artist who was selling hand painted T-shirts at a Manhattan Beach fair in 1986. The original Michael Stars designs were unisex boxy T-shirts decorated with multiple colors and interwoven French inspired graphics'a distinctive beginning from where the garment would eventually grow.
	Mon Petit Oiseau Mon Petit Oiseau is a small independent label based in Los Angeles. The designer of the collection, Tracy Wilkinson, a British native, launched the company in September 1999. English girls grow up being referred to as 'birds'. It's considered an endearing term and it is for this reason Tracy chose mon petit oiseau or 'my little bird' as the name for her collection. In sketching the mon petit oiseau bird, Tracy designed a simple, sweet, and feminine icon that would perfectly mirror the collection she planned to create.
