Local fashion fans stand to learn a thing or two on Thursday night, when students in the Apparel Design and Merchandising program at San Francisco State University showcase their latest creations inside the San Francisco Design Center’s Galleria during the school’s 11th annual student fashion show, Runway 2010: Nouvelle.

Along with student designs, the evening includes looks from Wee Scotty and the youth and tween designers who learn to sew at the local label’s sewing school.

Making the evening an even smarter idea, a portion of the proceeds from tickets ($15-$25) will benefit the St. Vincent de Paul Society’s human services programs.

In the midst of a rain-filled week, we’re letting a little sun shine in, thanks to Alex Keenum and Amy Soderlind of Refuses to Label. For this shoot, the stylish duo ventured to the Marina district, where Amy posed in a thrifted camel suede skirt and vintage black platform booties, a cropped grey t-shirt by American Apparel, H&M faux fur vest and Spanx tights.

See, sometimes finding yourself up against a wall ain’t so bad…

Refuses to Label: the creative outlet of two lifelong friends with similar aesthetic addictions: vintage, design, art, photography, music. Artists themselves; this is the documentation of they’re combined inspirations and daily vintage fits.
