Every designer and model we can account for at the two Bureau Fashion Week LA shows Nightlife Report covered: The Opening (Fri Oct 16, 6:00 PM) and Saturday Night: The Finale (Sat Oct 17, 8:30 PM), at The Lot Studios, 1041 N Formosa Ave, West Hollywood. Designer lists come from the Bureau’s official schedule and the runway backdrops in our frames. Model credits come from our published captions and our editor’s notes. Anything we couldn’t confirm is marked unconfirmed. We never identify anyone from a face.
Photos from the shows we covered are in the Bureau LA Fashion Week Oct 2026 Runway Album. For the models’ side of the weekend, read How The Venus Games Works and The Venus Games: Inside the Colosseum.

- Unidentified models: every other look in our coverage. Model credits are added only once the house, the Bureau or the model’s agency confirms them.
Other public accounts posted from the weekend. A story handle shows who posted a frame, not who walked, for which house or on which night, so we hold those runway credits until they are confirmed.
Hair, makeup and styling
The Bureau says its designer packages include hair and makeup teams. No makeup artist or hair stylist for this event is named in any source we have, so every hair and makeup credit is unconfirmed. Styling credits are held until we can confirm which show and house an artist worked.
Producers, crew and press
- Producer: The Bureau Fashion Week (@thebureaufashionweek).
- Brady King, Co-Founder and President (billed as producer in the LA press release).
- Krissy King, Co-Founder; leads designer relations, model casting, staffing and guest experience, per the Bureau’s leadership sheet.

Sponsors and vendors
Our Opening frames show vendor booths, a KING’S step-and-repeat and an in-venue beauty-brand activation. No source names an official sponsor for this season, and sponsor terms are not public, so every sponsor credit is unconfirmed.
