Brian Lichtenberg goes the distance

          

Once again, fashion designer Brian Lichtenberg has evolved to the next level, like the fiery holographic Pokemon card, Charizard. With his holographic leggings and intricately cut tanks bringing him praise and attention, he is actually no Flash Gordon. Instead, he's kept a humble state of mind.

            Attracting the press junkies in 2000 with Gwen Stefani, Brian Lichtenberg has proven that a flair for creativity can get someone places. In fact, he has roamed the streets of New York City, Tokyo, and Los Angeles with alternative means of transportation. However, he has maintained his drive to create marvel out of madness.

For an up-and-coming designer who has recently infiltrated into the fashion world, he's been collecting aficionados like an L.A. ice cream truck chased around by neighborhood kids.

Hailing from Southern California, he has made his mark as the hipster's all-time choice. Now his name appears in articles from every angle, like his chiseled physique. Rolling Stone, Nylon, and WWD are just a few of the magazines that have featured him.

He has an impressive resume, with the ranks of club kids to superstars, like M.I.A., Katy Perry, Santogold and even Zac Efron wearing his creations. His designs mainly attract those with a keen eye for sensational apparel or those with good stage presence. His clothing for men and women has a performance quality in it, which allows wearers to have flexibility in its looseness. He recently dressed Lady Gaga for her music video, "Poker Face."

Last October, Brian Lichtenberg showcased his 2009 spring collection in front of a packed crowed at L.A. Fashion Week hosted by BOXeight. Diverse models catwalked his collection, covered, or rather exposed, in unisexual pieces. The order misled onlookers, transforming from white, grey to black pieces, until a dash of violet popped out, only to introduce the shiny and shimmery wonderous.

Janet Jackon's tour hairstyle was also present, along with geometrically skeletal helmets and pointy-head gear. The unitards, muscle tanks, and zip-up pants made the crowd uproar with nothing but applause. Minimalistic yet scandalous dresses and tops walked the runway, but at the same time fit in perfectly with the scene. A bandage dress had a mummy-like quality as it was revealing like King Tut's bones, thugs and harmony. 

Overall, the '70s, '80s and under-appreciated '90s were orchestrated into one collection of a dozen pieces. Brian Lichtenberg has a flair for covering the delicately cut to risqué pieces with the new element of lace. His SS09 collection was abstract yet architecturally structured.
