Celebrity Designer Marc Littlejohn Brings Exclusive Resort Collection to Palm Springs

One of the fashion industry’s most dynamic creative forces—whose work has appeared in productions with Michael Jackson, Cher, America’s Next Top Model, and Hollywood red carpets —is bringing his newest collection to Palm Springs not for Fashion Week, but for a mission that saves lives.

On Saturday, October 3, acclaimed Los Angeles designer Marc Littlejohn, creator of THISMANSBRAND, will debut selections from his 2026 Resort Collection during the 5th Annual Legacy in Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Fashion Show, presented by the Southern California Black Chamber of Commerce – Palm Springs Chapter.

Now celebrating its fifth anniversary, Legacy in Pink has become one of Coachella Valley’s most diverse luxury runway experiences—uniting professional models, breast cancer survivors, community leaders, celebrity guests, and local participants to promote awareness, education, and early detection.

Producer Wes Rankins partnered with Palm Springs Chapter President Julia Moody to elevate this milestone year while honoring the event’s founding purpose.

“Fashion is fashion, no matter who wears it. If one survivor inspires someone still fighting, or one man schedules a cancer screening because he sees himself represented on our runway, then we have accomplished something far greater than producing a beautiful fashion show,” said Wes Rankins.

Marc Littlejohn’s distinguished career includes work with Michael Jackson, Cher, Tyra Banks, Angela Bassett, Paula Abdul, Johnny Gill, and Eminem. His THISMANSBRAND label is celebrated for bold, sustainably evolved fashion—and Palm Springs audiences will be among the first to experience his newest Resort Collection.

Featured Designers include:

Aneka Brown – ABD by Aneka Brown Designs
Angela Carr – Chique & Unique
Antonio Huerta – APH EZ-Lux Designs
Dionna McGlothen – Fashion Is Art
