New York Designers vs Los Angeles Designers

[ulteriordesigner]

Hello all, this is my first post so I'd like to apologize if this is in some way an incorrect way of do so. Now that I have that out of the way....

I'm getting ready to graduate from a fashion design school in six months and am currently working on my senior collection/thesis. Along with that, I am preparing myself for an internship my school requires to graduate.

I'm constantly doing research on potential designers that I'd like to intern for. Right now, I have it broken down into two categories. New York Designers and Los Angeles Designers.

My list is as follows:

New York:

Duckie Brown
Fremont
Generra
GIlded Age
John Varvatos
Michael Bastian
Obedient Sons
Rag and Bone
Robert Geller
Steven Alan
The Cast

L.A.:

Cassette
Corpus
Cosa Nostra
Endovanera
G-Star
Mike and Chris
Modern Amusement

I was wondering if anyone would like to share any smaller design houses on either coast to expand my list. I would like to start at a smaller company as apposed to a Marc Jacobs where there are 20 interns for the summer. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Band of outsiders for sure looks for interns, they had posted on craigslist a month or two back. but you need to have illustrator skills
