March 20-22, 2025 – The pulse of fashion in Los Angeles found its crescendo from March 20 to 22 as Art Hearts Fashion once again redefined what a fashion week can be. Hosted at The New Mart, Los Angeles Fashion Week Powered by Art Hearts Fashion brought together a curated mix of innovation, sustainability, celebrity-endorsed designers, and show-stopping collections—all wrapped in the unmistakable energy of LA’s creative class.

Adidas Originals Anchors the Finale

The runway reached new heights on Saturday night, with Adidas Originals closing out the three-day showcase alongside a select group of visionary designers: Baba Jagne, Bishme Cromartie, Kelly Hsieh, House of Gray, House of Aama, and ECE Designs. Together, they unveiled interpretations of the brand’s Goukana sneaker—each one an exploration of heritage meeting next-gen expression. The collection marked a high point of the week, where fashion’s storytelling power intersected with streetwear credibility in its purest form.

From start to finish, the March 2025 edition of LA Fashion Week underscored a clear directive: fashion is no longer just about fabric and fit—it's about impact. One of the most talked-about highlights was "Fight Fire With Fashion” by ALTERRAGE, a forward-thinking AI-generated collection promoting environmental awareness and sustainable practices. In a week that placed intention at the forefront, upcycled creations, repurposed materials, and responsible design were woven throughout the programming.

In tandem, Art Hearts Fashion continued its commitment to representation, offering prime runway moments for Black designers and artists whose work both celebrated cultural legacy and shaped contemporary aesthetics.

Beyond the Catwalk

Art Hearts Fashion extended the experience well beyond runway moments. Guests were immersed in the week’s programming through experiential activations like the crowd-favorite Adidas-branded claw machine, intimate designer showcases, and exclusive afterparties at The Reserve that blurred the lines between fashion and nightlife. A-list sponsors such as Modnet.io, Smartwater, Sunsip by Health-Ade, Maison Perrier, and Moonslice Beauty enhanced the atmosphere at every turn, making the week a fully sensory affair.
