Mister Triple X<br />

Erik Rosete<br />

Los Angeles native Erik Rosete is a natural when it comes to being a<br />

‘triple threat’ in the fashion industry. Approximately five years ago, he<br />

started managing models in NYC and then returned to Los Angeles to<br />

work in entertainment but ‘got sucked back into fashion.’<br />

Rosete’s world spreads across several different facets of the<br />

industry. From designing, management and producing,<br />

Mister Rosete is virtually a one stop shop when it comes<br />

to handling business in this whirlwind of an industry that<br />

is fashion. Founder of RMG Talent, Art Hearts Fashion and<br />

Mister Triple X, his responsibilities range vastly - from<br />

development to retention and strategic planning for all<br />

his clients on a global scale, to overseeing and managing<br />

him to explain. “I was friends with beautiful people whose<br />

careers were in need of change. I decided to manage their<br />

careers and shifted my work from LA to NYC. After a year of<br />

being in NYC, I decided to return to Los Angeles and focus<br />

on entertainment. I started working with a film director<br />

and a few actors, one day an old friend of mine approached<br />

me about attending his fashion show in Los Angeles and I<br />

attended. He had heard of my work in NYC and asked me to<br />

manage him. From there, fashion was once again my forte<br />

and we worked well together. Through my work with these<br />

amazing artists I launched an event to feature all of them<br />

under one roof. That is where “Art Hearts Fashion” was born.<br />

I was able to feature designers, models, musicians, artists,<br />

and photographers all under one roof.”<br />

Finding out the inspiration behind what our featured artists<br />

do is important to us at Fashion Xchange Magazine, and<br />

Erik’s is very interesting. “I have always been inspired by<br />

helping others and figured out a way to create a platform<br />

that benefits great causes and great people. Through that<br />

I created my own fashion line “Mister Triple X” to also tell<br />

my own story through fashion. I remain inspired because<br />

I think that fashion is a great way to tell one’s story, and
