In 1973, the LACMA unveiled "LA Flash." The exhibition featured photographs of 400 of the city's most stylish residents, collected by a handful of shutterbugs who wandered different neighborhoods, capturing the best of L.A. street style. Now, on its 25th anniversary, the museum will re-launch "LA Flash," which originally ran for three months, for one night only. The photos, according to The Los Angeles Times, are still a fashion inspiration: "Many of the original images, which have been digitally enhanced for the new showing, could have sprung from the latest issue of Vogue."

There's no doubt that "LA Flash" was a precursor to the ubiquitous girl-on-the-street magazine pages and blog features we see today. With that in mind, the museum will offer a modern spin on the idea by starting a new, street-style blog to celebrate its anniversary.
This time, you won't have to wait for an army of photographers to happen upon you as you walk the streets in your must cutting-edge ensemble. To be included, all you have to do is show up at the museum on the night of September 6 for the "LA Flash" opening party and wow the photographers. In a city where most residents have a practiced paparazzi pose, be prepared for lots of competition--and some excellent people watching.
