Los Angeles native, Alexis LaMontagna, grew up frequenting the thriving Punk Rock and Art Scene in Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles. Alexis attended Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, California where she majored in Fashion Design.
The Alexis LaMontagna collection made it's debut at LA Fashion week Fall/Winter 2008 to rave reviews, her first season combined classical codes with modern interpretations, such as traditional: Prince of Wales check and woolens shot with lycra. The construction of each garment created an already worn-in feeling; sweat shirting treated in the same manner as fine woolens that utilize elegant hand tailoring techniques; luxurious silks rendered in a manner usually reserved for t-shirts and fully-fashioned cashmere sweaters that suggest an elegance of a different sort.
The collection quickly became a must have with celebrities such as: Katy Perry, Michelle Trachtenberg, Amy Smart, Amber Heard, Shannen Doherty, Jennie Garth, and Pink.
The Alexis LaMontagna collection has featured in WWD, Apparel News, Flaunt, Entertainment Weekly, Ocean Magazine to only name a few.
