Prabal Gurung

New designer alert ! Prabal Gurung hit the fame streets after celebrities like Blake Lively, Demi Moore and First Lady Michelle Obama started wearing his clothes. The Nepalese designer is based in New York and showed his first collection during New York Fashion Week in February 2009. Quite brave for a designer to start a high end label at the start of a recession, but so far he is proving that it can be done and is wowing the fashion industry with his astounding collections. Even Vogue’s Anna Wintour felt a need to run an article about him. This brand is going to grow rapidly before our eyes.

Juan Carlos Obando

New designer alert ! Juan Carlos Obando swung the fashion industry with suprise when he started his brand in 2008. While working as an art director for advertising powerhouses, Obando taught himself how to construct a garment by cutting up vintage pieces. Once he understood and appreciated the work of tailoring, sewing, etc.. he felt it was time to start his own label.  Juan lives and works in Los Angeles and is apart of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). “We combine traditional Japanese, African and Latin American hand-dyeing techniques to create our signature hues and color palette.” This is a designer to be keeping your eye on.
