LoinCloth Los Angeles has been selected to compete in Phoenix Fashion Week’s Emerging Designer Challenge. The competition leads up to Phoenix Fashion Week in which the designers will present twelve looks at the runway show on October 1– 5 at the Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale.

LoinCloth Los Angeles, a men’s apparel brand, was recently chosen to compete in this year’s Emerging Designer Challenge. The program is a four-month competition between twelve up-and-coming designers from all over the world. The prize is the title of Emerging Designer of the Year along with a $10,000 package of goods and services to help the winners launch their brand.

“We are extremely excited to compete against so many other talented designers on such a large platform,” said co-owner Clary Jeffrey. LoinCloth Los Angeles was selected after Phoenix Fashion Week went on an 8-city tour around the country to find the most talented up-and-coming fashion designers. The country-wide tour attracted over 200 brands from all over the world to apply. From 200 they chose the top 12 designers.
