Best Los Angeles- Based Designers

Following are five of Los Angeles' top style creators, offering everything from trippy headpieces to stunning stilettos to beautiful ball gowns and everything in between.

 Louise Green Millinery Co.

Louise Green can top a head in so many ways. Her fedoras are as smashing as her fascinators, her accent materials of choice — from flowers to feathers to crystals — always please and her color palette is as rich as a master’s paint box. This Westsider, born and bred in Britain, has been coming up with smashing styles in Los Angeles since 1987, working up to making her sprawling hat factory a highly successful, high-end operation that is arguably one of the tops in the nation.
