    LA loves fashion but its Fashion Week rarely makes waves. Could this be the Week it does? We also hear about two green machines for living in, plus design Japan-style as Murakami hits town, great houses of LA's Gilded Age, and a tribute to Herbert Muschamp from Sylvia Lavin, Christopher Hawthorne, John Enright, Paola Antonelli, Greg Lynn and Frank Gehry.
