PHOTOGRAPHER/CREATIVE DIRECTOR
A Midwesterner the moment he was born, Thomas Drotar couldn’t wait to leave. So, at 17 he joined the Marines and this is where he thinks his story begins. Always curious he went on to college on the GI Bill and studied Art History and Literature and graduated from the University of Michigan with no prospects and no job. He headed west and landed in San Francisco and started selling furniture to avoid starvation. He sold a lot of it and discovered he was really good at selling things and in doing so could make a lot of money. After a couple years he grew restless, quit and decided to circumnavigate the globe instead. He spent a year on the road exploring some of the most remote places imaginable.
Upon his return to the States Tom returned to San Francisco and started selling fur coats at the iconic I. Magnin store on Union Square. It was here he learned how to sell couture by his mentor Jessie Skates. It was about this time Tom discovered what he wanted to do, write screenplays. So during the day he sold on the sales floor and at night he went home and wrote. He wrote a promising story about a high-end grifter fur salesman who duped the social elite out of their jewelry. He submitted the screenplay and it started attracting lots of attention. So he moved to Los Angeles. While starving and waiting to make it as a writer Tom was offered a job working on a film set in the Art Department. It was a good paying gig and there was a lot of creativity involved. With his background in furniture and couture it wasn’t long before he moved up the food chain. He returned to school to learn illustration and design at UCLA and Art Center to improve his skills. Opportunities soon occurred because of his dedication and incredible work ethic. He became a Production Designer and for the next 25 years did nothing but. In the meantime, Tom taught himself software, tons of it. In fact you’re viewing some of it right now. Always the camera bug Tom started shooting events with Merle and decided it was time to create something unique.
So the next chapter still remains to be written as we try to get our CAPTURE BOOKS project off the ground. I have always understood the potential of things, be it a product, presentation or a service. That is what has kept me in the running for as long as I have. What we are presenting to you with our approach I believe will be an invaluable asset to any business trying to expand their base of viewers in a way that delights and informs. Merle and I thank you for taking the time to consider our presentations and stand unequivocally behind them.
HERE COMES THE FUZZ
L.A.`s perennial fashion trend: layering - went full frontal at this weekend`s Pickwick Vintage Fair: chill weather vintage coat`s ruled, though most were far from chill. Fuzzy: faux fur, chubby`s, woolly bullies, animal prints: the coat is the thing right now. So are popcorn knits from the 70`s - the fluffier the better. Suede and leather were standouts for sale: leather looks in lipstick red, fluorescent lime, butter yellow - and suede jackets, fringed or plain fun, in every shade of 70`s brown: cigar, burnt umber, chestnut, smoky topaz - and of course, this year`s new/old hue: mocha mousse. How 70`s can you get? Answer: At Pickwick, very.

Players Gonna Play, Play, Play: Taylor Swift’s Game-Day Fashion
By Merle Ginsberg
Some people love sports sweepstakes. But give me fashion sweepstakes anyday. NFL football celebrates strength, agility, speed, grit.
Yet Taylor Swift`s sartorial presence has added another dimension: Kansas City Chief`s games are now non-stop red carpet runway, where we get to see the world`s biggest (richest) pop star dressing up - and dressing down - for her biggest audience of all time. Two hundred million people catch the Super Bowl.
My story in The Hollywood Reporter illustrates how Taylor`s played the game: she`s the Chief`s cheerleader, but she`s also their smartest weapon: wielding her unique combo of sporty spice with high luxe fashion. And everything she touches (wears) turns to cash register gold.

Diane von Furstenberg
How many dresses warrant their own anniversary, museum exhibition and documentary?

COSTUME PARTY:
Four-time Oscar nominated costume designer Arianne Phillips (A Complete Unknown, Walk the Line, W.E., Once Upon a Time In Hollywood) woke up to her fourth nom on Jan. 23; she`d already scored a BAFTA nom for her work in the Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown. But weeks before this, ASU’s FIDM fashion school then honored her with costume exhibit down at their downtown HQ, with many of Timothee Chalamet, Monica Barbaro and Elle Fanning’s looks right there to touch and feel. “I grew up in the West Village,” Philips, an old pal (and former Madonna stylist), told me. “I grew up with Bob Dylan. What people don’t know is that he actually was a style icon. He never wore shoes – only boots – now true of many guys. After he met The Beatles in 1964, he amped up his game with more mod swagger. I think he influenced Bob generation of male dressing. Timothee had sixty-seven costume changes!

ANGELS IN WEHO????
We know about Angels in America. But till this pre-Thanksgiving sighting, we had no idea angels roam the streets of WeHo. Driving down Santa Monica Boulevard on a chilly Sunday, we spotted a shirtless youth with longish hair strutting, sans shirt – with only giant fluffy white angel wings fluttering from his shoulders for protection. When ask why, he smiled ear to ear: “I think we’re needed more than ever right now.” We can’t argue with that. Then he soared into Bottega Louie for one of their heavenly almond croissants. @visitweho @angelsinweho @angels.in.america @angelsinamerica_teatro
Le Superbe at Church Boutique
What better place to host a holiday season/Christmas/Hannukah shopping party than a boutique named Church? Shopping is a religion at Rodney Burns` and David Mulvaney`s emporium of eclectic eccentric furnishings, art and fashion from far-flung tk. They served vino and chocolate fondue to rabid LeSuperbe shoppers, the L.A. brand designed by this town`s fashion fixture Jeannine Braden. Holiday, the brand`s most coveted season, is famed for its chunky faux furs and sequin bodycon slinks. Among the high profile guests: Bananarama /Shakespeare`s sister singer Siobhan Fahey, the GoGo`s Charlotte Caffey, Michelle Laurita and Thomas Drotar. Oh, and me - all decked out in LeSuperbe celebratory leopard. Me-OW!

PICKWICK VINTAGE AT THE ROW
Downtown Los Angeles
16 November 2024
Sweater weather has finally landed at the Pickwick Vintage Fair. Just give these antique clothes devotees a little drop in degrees - out come the boots, suede jackets, tights, faux furs, leathers, plaids. Layering`s a distinctly L.A. obsession - particularly here, when, given the chance, L.A.`s sartorial stalwarts pile onfringe, feathers and funky footwear. Duly noted: fashionista shoppers like designer Trina Turk, designer/stylist Jeannine Braden and dresser par excellence, Judy Jimenez.
This past Saturday we returned to The Row for the always exciting Pickwick Vintage. This time we concentrated on the Vendors and asked them how they find such treasures. Passionate and dedicated all, there responses did not disappoint. Please find said clips on our website https://lamoodboard.com in the next week

A perennial NY fave, Ulla Johnson`s 2025 spring/summer Chelsea runway show contrasted simple dress shapes of complex prints and colors, with solids of lace, silk and nubby knits. They say "Boho is Back!" - for her, it never went away. And neither has her following and loving loyal customers.

Downtown Modernism
Look who WE found at the Downtown Modernism marketplace in Vernon: L.A. stylistas Henry Duarte – the unique denim/leather clothing designer who hails from the L.A. 80’s and dressed every cool rocker around; Church Boutique’s supercool Rodney Burns, who doubles as Lenny Kravitz’s image consultant – and our great friend Jeannine Braden, former retailer, now designer/artistic director of the LeSuperbe line (I donned her leopard shirt), which you can and should purchase on ShopLeSuperbe.com.

MaxMara
Chateau Marmont | Hollywood
At the at least decade long annual event, the cocktail party for the MaxMara "Face of the Future" - this year awarded to Joey King - we noticed something seriously cool: the retro elevator to the first floor garden where it`s held, has long curtains tied at the sides in front of it - and a small round mirror behind it. It looks like a Vermeer and van Eyck reference, don`t they? "Girl With the Pearl Earring" and "The Arnolfini" - or what? And appropriately, there were a lot of pearl earrings headed up to the event, produced by David Rodgers Inc.

A.L.C. STORE OPENING
CAPTURING THE CROWD AND CELEBRATING HER NEW STORE
Everyone thinks fashion events: upscale store openings and dinners and the like, with editors, designers, stylists and requisite celebs are so glamourous. Problem is – they are. But along with that tasteful turf: the pressure of what to wear - dressing in the style of the designer/brand? Or is that trying too hard? Constant small talk, obtaining quotes (for coverage) – and a degree of formality that comes with being “on,” can take a toll - physically, mentally, socially.
Which is why the mid October opening of the new Beverly Drive ALC store – the third L.A. locale from founder/designer and L.A. homegirl and former stylist Andrea Lieberman (Pacific Palisades, Malibu – plus Soho, the Upper East Side and Hamptons in NY) was so – warm and fuzzy? Yes.

TODD SNYDER IS THE MAN OF THE HOUR
For spring/summer 2025, former J. Crew designer Todd Snyder, now the purveyor of two Los Angeles stores - The Grove and Abbot Kinney - went softer, flowier, prettier, pinker, peacher and sky-blue-er than his tweedy fall fare. In classic mens` club spot Le Rock at Rockefeller Center - an uptown eatery for well-heeled martini culture - showed soft suits, soft layers and shorts suits that push the envelope of menswear. Hey - I`d wear these clothes - if they ever wind up in my boyfriend`s closet. This exquisite Snyder portfolio can be viewed at https://lamoodboard.com/events-30/

BEHIND THE SCENES | TODD SNYDER
NYFW SPRING/SUMMER 2025
For spring 2025, Todd Snyder – never one for conventional shows or conventional clothes – presented his menswear collection late afternoon at the Art Deco Stylist boite Le Rock at 45 Rockefeller Plaza on Sunday September 8.
Assembled in all their pastel glory in an empty floor upstairs, the guys in varied trench coat, shorts suit, satin jacket, baggy white linens looks, showed off slouchy silhouettes – one soft suit in a three piece wood rose hue – vogueing it up for the shutterbugs, under the steady gaze of Snyder himself, he and his tailors checking fits and stylish designer flip flops before the male entourage wound its way through Le Rock’s tables, like a style army staking out the best oysters and martinis the city has to offer.

TANNER FLETCHER: CAPTURING THE CROWD
Today we release the digital magazine (i-zine) of the innovative Tanner Fletcher show where we also “Captured the Crowd.” Those attendees decked to the 9’s. The full regalia may be viewed exclusively at LAmoodboard.com And be sure to check out our Tanner Fletcher: Fluid Luxury is more interesting than Quiet Luxury digital magazine; released yesterday and also exclusively available at LAmoodboard.com
Fashion Commentary from Merle’s Closet.
If there’s one thing more unique, joyous, iconoclastic and excellently eccentric than the adorable Brooklyn design duo Tanner Fletcher - Tanner Richie and Fletcher Kasell - is their buoyantly flamboyant - and rabid - crowd of (mostly young) fans and followers who practically vogued their way down west 26th St. on the way to their spring/summer show. Were they getting stopped to pose for their one-of-a-kind mash-up outfits - or were they fashion editors, layered up, posing as downtown boho`s? "I like to look at the collection and have it look like somebody`s closet,” Kasell explained as he and Richie greeted the TF faithful as they entered the multi room tableau theater, where actual models acted out the clothes. "There`s everyday stuff that`s easy to wear, but at the same time it`s fashion." Nothing every day about this cabal.
We ask you to follow us here on Instagram at #icandyla and visit us at https://LAmoodboard.com to get an overview of the latest fashion and cultural trends happening in Los Angeles (and in New York this upcoming week.) Capturing its myriad essence is our goal.
