For the last five years a new but very influential film festival has climbed to dominate the fashion industry scene as the leading international marketplace for fashion films.
La Jolla International Fashion Film Festival has all the attributes of a high profile film festival, not only because is the world’s largest gathering of fashion filmmakers but also because is held in the venerable San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art/La Jolla, nested in the picturesque coastal village of La Jolla and surrounded by collectible curated art, fine restaurants, designers boutiques, five stars hotels, lush foliage, balmy weather, Spanish and avant-garde architecture and of course, is uniquely framed by the magnificent visual bounty the Pacific Ocean could offer.
In a nutshell, La Jolla International Fashion Film Festival is "suburban sunny California meets cosmopolitan Paris, London and Milan in a creative rendezvous of cinematic narrative full of style and glamorous fashion".

A re-post from La Jolla Fashion Film Festival FB page: We
decided we liked this picture better than the previous one, so here it
is! From left, cinematographer George Leon, Inna Zobova, Fred Sweet, and
Bruno Aveillan. This year's LJIFFF will long be remembered for the
enchanting imagery from one of the world's top film directors - Paris
based Bruno Aveillan. Bruno and his lovely graceful wife, Russian
actress Inna Zobova were one of the highlights of our Festival. From
Bruno's film retrospective to Inna's stunning Red Carpet outfits, their
presence added a special dimension to our worldwide gathering. Thank you
Bruno and Inna!...
