Los Angeles fashion is the Starbucks of the modeling world.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Growing up in Los Angeles, obviously it's a really fashionable city, but it has a really relaxed quality to it as well. So, my fashion education came while working on 'Suits'.
One nice thing that I have discovered about Los Angeles is the enthusiasm with which people dress.
People in fashion treat it as a business... I guess Hollywood is a business, too, but you talk about story: you talk about a more artistic world than in fashion.
L.A. fashion is like lip injections. That confuses me. That's become not just a thing. It's become fashion, part of your outfit. But hey, to each his own.
The fashion world is much more ephemeral than the film industry and moves at a faster pace, and it's got even more frenetic since the Nineties; more paparazzi hanging about and it seems to me there are even more fashion magazines.
There are three or four places in the country where people think of fashion: One is L.A., obviously. Another is New York. And I think Atlanta has to be in the top five cities where fashion is very big.
If anything, Calvin Klein is the iconic company in terms of fashion. They do have iconic images for their campaigns.
A couple of years after I arrived in Hollywood, everything that was Latino was fashionable, and years after, my thought is that we're not fashionable anymore. We're here to stay.
Los Angeles is like a beauty parlor at the end of the universe.
Everyone thinks the fashion business is so glamorous. It's completely the opposite.
