Ever wondered how fashion labels such as Altuzarra, Marchesa, Rag & Bone, Creatures of The Wind, Derek Lam, Proenza Schouler and Rodarte got their start in fashion? Well I have the answer to that. Besides being very talented they all entered the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund. A couple of days ago The 2012 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Show and Dinner took place in Los Angeles.


Every week American Vogue uploads episodes which gives us a chance to watch the designers' journeys. Because I suffer from Fashion and Internet FOMO (fear of missing out), I managed to find all the episodes so far. I put them on my blog because I want everyone to also know about this amazing initiative.

The Fashion Fund Series is like Project Runway but better. One of the judges just happens to be Anna Wintour.


All facets of fahsion are showcased for the Fashion Fund, not only clothes. Shoe and Jewellery designers have also been selected for the fund. While watching these five minute videos you start to choose favourites and learn more about the designers and their inspirations.

If you love the fashion industry and need something to keep you entertained definitely take a look at these episodes. Eventually you'll learn what it takes to become successful in whatever industry you chose.
