It's been a full week since we wrapped up our time at Anime Los Angeles 2019 and one of our favorite events of this convention (and many others if we're honest) is their fashion show! ALA 2019 saw several brands show off their latest work. A-to-J's own My Hamachi Designs shared the stage with Girl With One Eye, Sae leona, Creators Guild, Ronova, Beyond The Boundary, Majesti Designs, and ACDC RAG. The last one being a very popular and well-known Japanese brand that was also the featured brand of the show. To add to the festivities ALA also provided an long halftime show that featured a live performance by BLACK ROS3, and a cosplay catwalk, both events also featured ALA Guest Suzu Momoi. While we won't provide extended commentary on each brand, the gallery below shows off their amazing work and we hope you enjoy it!
