INTRODUCING
MIKE & CHRIS

WHY THEY'RE HOT: Because Hollywood A-listers are going gaga over their fitted leather pieces, ruched hoodies and distinctive tops.
CELEB FANS: Angelina Jolie, Cameron Diaz, Nicole Kidman, Rachel Bilson and Jessica Alba.

He was a fashion photographer and art dealer; she was a former model turned federal investigator. What they had in common—besides their love for each other, of course—was "being passionate about whatever we do," says Mike Gonzalez, 31, of L.A.-based Mike & Chris, which he designs with wife Christine Park-Gonzalez, 31. "We always knew we wanted to start a clothing line." Featuring chic pieces with military details (prices range from $195 for hoodies to $1,000 for leather bags), the label, which launched in 2005, expanded into handbags this year. A men's line and knitwear are planned for 2007. "We have a specific aesthetic," says Gonzalez. "But every type of woman could find something that represents them."
