Retrofit Republic

It's official. We're in love with Retrofit Republic. And it's not only because they're dope ass APIA chicks, but because they're also fellow fashionistas, who are down for the cause of keeping the world more environmentally conscious. We shopped privately at their high tea decorated boutique in the lower Haight, drank sangria and dove into deep connections that began as just conversations. The crew was both young and talented and their beautiful Launch show sparked six degrees of separation, and then some.

We're honored to have done the hair and make-up of their Spring 2011 Look Book. Also check out the film look book too, which is directed by Ryan Michael Louie & Triptych Productions and even features Step HEAVVY's VT.
