VIP Auto Fashion LA
VIP Auto Fashion Show, the nation’s largest customized luxury car show with the finest competing for awards, arrived in Los Angeles on Saturday, November 18th.
After walking down the VIP red carpet, Lamborghinis, Ferraris and a Bentley adorned with models greet you upon entry. VIP Auto Fashion, while brought to you by the producers of the Hot Import Nights (HIN), differs with its luxury and exotics. HIN, the nation’s largest lifestyle custom car show has become synonymous with hot cars and hot import models, many of which are predominantly Asian.
Adding to the VIP experience were VIP lounges from Playboy and the Karma Foundation. A yacht and Playboy racing car added to the DJ and Playboy Bunny ambience. The Karma Foundation Celebrity/VIP Lounge planned display, courtesy of its members included a Saleen S7, Spyker C8, Spyder, Bugatti, Lamborhini Gallardo, Mosler MT900, Ferrari F50, BRABUS sV12 and the rare Mercedes Gullwing.
Besides the exotics, you could also see luxuries, customized Scions, and the largest collection of VIP Japanese cars assembled.
Barry Bonds and LL Cool J were rumored to be hanging out in the Karma Foundation lounge area. Vin Diesel, or at least someone that appeared to be him, was surrounded by pictures and signaling for those that that dared lift a camera that no, it was not ok to take a picture.
The VIP Fashion Show showcased Donna L’oren fashions down the runway with music and a broadcast system for all to hear.
Ursula Mayes hosted Queen of the Scene, for a regional Miss HIN search. Names had been pre-selected, however audience demand created some confusion for Mayes over the finalists. Joining Mayes were NBC’s “Deal or No Deal” suitcase girls, Angelina Zamora (Miss HIN Dallas), Jessica Burciaga (Miss HIN Dallas), Misa Campo (Miss HIN New York), and Ashleigh Erwin (Miss Makita).
Upcoming events through the end of the year are for Hot Import Nights on December 9th in Honolulu , Hawaii and December 16th in Miami , Florida .
