The Los Angeles Fashion District covers about one hundred blocks in the southern part of downtown and is the largest garment wholesale and fabric hub on the West Coast of the United States. It contains thousands of apparel wholesalers, fabric dealers and showrooms, though the exact current figure has yet to be confirmed. On weekends Santee Alley draws retail bargain shoppers, while weekday mornings are devoted to business-to-business wholesale for buyers visiting from across the country, making it the core of West Coast fast-fashion supply.
The district specializes in men's and women's ready-to-wear, denim, accessories, bags and fabric trims, with fast turnaround and frequent style updates. Its customers are retailers, online sellers and chain-store buyers mainly from the southwestern United States. For Chinese export manufacturers, it offers a route for low-cost fast-fashion supply, a way to find local importers, and a test bed for reaching small and mid-sized American retail channels.
