August Getty Atelier



August Getty is the emerging designer of the year.  I had the pleasure of viewing the second August Getty Fashion Show in person on Friday, February 13th during the Mercedes Benz Fashion week in New York City.

The show had three parts edgy leather, dramatic black dresses and black and gold.  Music changed as models showed each part of the collection adding a lot of soul and drama to the show.

August is the grandson of the late John Paul Getty Jr.. Fashion is in his genes; with a sense of humor and an intimate relationship with luxury, he is poised to become Los Angeles' next it fashion designer.

He designs for: "a very mysterious and sexy girl.  She's also privileged.  She is the girl in the corner of the room - you never see her face, but you see her back and want to know more about her."

I am looking forward to seeing more of his collections and development.
