Party Seen: SF Fashion + Tech’s French Technique

July 20, 2012 By Leave a Comment

SF Fashion+Tech gave us a reason to celebrate the fashion capital’s independence. In honor of Bastille Day, designers, entrepreneurs, engineers, and media gurus gathered in SoMa for some mixing and mingling, a Paris-inspired fashion show featuring the eco-friendly apparel of Palo Alto label Amour Vert and displays from Bay Area companies such as ModeWalk and LIFT by Yappo.

Below some images from the festivities. You’ll find more on our Facebook page.

SF Fashion Events: Fashion + Tech Mingling, ArtPoint Gala at de Young

July 8, 2012 By Leave a Comment

A mid-summer lull in events is upon us, but there are, we’re glad to report, two noteworthy San Francisco fashion events that caught our eye for the week ahead. Get a head start on the weekend while still feeling oh-so productive by popping into Thursday’s French-themed FW1 Industry Mixer for anyone interested in fashion and technology. A stacked guest list, free entry and $100 ModeWalk gift certificates to the first 300 attendees are enticing enough, but a fashion show by eco line Amour Vert and lots of locals chatting and mingling should tip the scales in favor of I’m going. Come Saturday, the place to be is the de Young Museum, where ArtPoint’s annual Bastille Day celebration goes down.  Dubbed Paris is Burning this year, the gala’s tickets are pricey, but include after hours access to the Jean Paul Gaultier exhibit, drinks and a chance to dance to DJ tunes through the museum’s normally-hushed halls.

Find details on these and other upcoming San Francisco fashion events waiting on the SF Indie Fashion Calendar. And of course, as you know, it doesn’t stop there. We’re adding new fashion happenings all the time, so check back often.

January 9, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Now that ’12 is officially underway (’cause we all know the first week doesn’t really count), San Francisco fashion events are popping up after a holiday hiatus. This week, we’re betting local fashion fans will carve out time for the launch event of a new fashion and technology accelerator program, the second SF Fashion + Tech event and the always-fun annual sample sale at the Oakland studio of Verrieres & Sako.

You can find details on all of these events and more happening this week on the SF Indie Fashion Calendar.

Win a Pass to Thursday’s Sold Out SF Fashion + Tech

November 8, 2011 By Leave a Comment

We like anything at the intersection of fashion and technology. You like passes to sold out San Francisco style events. Let’s converge. Or collab. Or mind-meld. Whatevs. Here’s the deal: we’re giving away one (single) pass to Thursday’s SF Fashion + Tech event featuring peeps from ModCloth, Google, Betabrand, Sneakpeeq, iFabbo and more. Want it?

We’ll choose one winner at random tomorrow (Wednesday). To enter:

Why all the hype? Fashion and technology are colliding like never before, and we Bay Area-ites are sitting right in the middle of the action. No wonder the event completely sold out less than a week after ticket sales went live. Thursday’s event puts a spotlight on that idea with a panel featuring some of the most interesting fashion-meets-tech business minds out there. We’re super curious to hear what they’ll have to say during the panel discussion (moderated by SF Indie Fashion’s Lorraine). Demos, startups and things to eat and drink are also part of the evening.
