Gen Art's Shop LA -- Sample Sale April 22, 2006

From LA.com:
$20 VIP; free general admission

Gen Art, the nonprofit responsible for launching the career of Madonna fave Louis verdad, hosts some of LA's most spirited art/fashion/indie film events. Shop LA is no exception.

Those eager to scoop up the next Louis Verdad count the calendar days until Gen Art once again unleashes some two dozen indie designers on the public in a huge day-long sale. Participating designers are a mix of emerging talent and Southland classics: Alicia Lawhon, Grey Ant and Society for Rational Dress are the more recognized labels to be found. More cutting-edge lines like Issho and one-time LA.com "Champagne Catwalk" designer Wooden Mustache will also be present. Makeover stations will morph shoppers into camera-ready cuties for free, and grafitti artist Chase will spray-paint custom designs on totes. Shoppers will be carded to make sure they are old enough to enjoy the open bar.

Tip: Gen Art members and VIPs get gift bags and access to a champagne bar.
