At this fashion-forward all-day gathering, designers, craftspeople, and clotheshorses alike celebrate the Bay Area's ever-churning independent fashion scene. The event accompanies an upcoming book of the same title, lovingly curated by artist Letitia Ntofon. A catwalk show features garments from Resident Apparel Gallery designers such as Little Red Sparrow and Racquel Valle, and the bazaar is stocked with unique accessories and outfits for purchase. A panel discussion pondering the use of repurposed materials and fashion's efficacy as a means of political, social, and cultural expression is sure to stimulate thoughtful conversation.
