New York. London. Paris.

Now, Hollywood.

Vogue World, the fashion and cultural event that launched in 2022 in New York City, then hopped across the Atlantic Ocean to other metropolitan cities, is finally coming to Los Angeles this fall.

While plans for Los Angeles to be the next host of the fashion extravaganza had been in the works long before the January wildfires, organizers announced Wednesday, March 26, that 100% of ticket sale proceeds this year will benefit the Entertainment Community Fund, a charity that supports actors and other workers in the film industry. There will be a special focus on supporting Hollywood’s costume designers impacted by the wildfires, organizers said.

“At a time when cities are too often under attack, whether from pandemics or climate change or merciless politics, our shows are celebrations of resilience. And this one will speak to the resilience of this great city,” Vogue global editorial director and Condé Nast chief content officer Anna Wintour said during an event at the famed Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood.

“Vogue World: Hollywood” will take place Oct. 26 on the Paramount Pictures Studios Lot.

Wintour billed the event as “a love affair between fashion and film.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was in Los Angeles for Thursday’s announcement, spoke of California as a leader in innovation. But while the state may be the fifth-largest economy in the world, it cannot rest on its laurels and must be more competitive, Newsom said.

He then spoke of a proposal to have California more than double the amount of film and television tax credits it offers, from $330 million to $750 million – an idea he pitched back in October.

In recent years, film sets have been setting up shop in other states such as Georgia and New York, which have offered attractive tax credits to lure businesses over.

“We’re promoting more than doubling that film tax credit in the next 90 days,” Newsom said. “Eat your heart out, New York City.”
