A bit of history:
THREAD Show has been happening in San Diego for almost seven years. It started as a trunk show in Lara’s garden at her home in Golden Hill and now it’s exponentially larger. The event has also been held in San Francisco, LA, Miami, Seattle and Las Vegas.
What the heck happens at THREAD:
From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., you can shop from local designers for clothing, art, books and more. Why should you shop THREAD and not the shopping mall, you ask? Because purchasing from the designers at THREAD allows you to save money by purchasing at wholesale prices and skipping the retailer middleman, you lessen your carbon footprint because your items aren’t being shipped all over and many of our designers are also eco-friendly and, finally, you support your local economy (and I don’t know of a better time than the present to start doing that!). Plus, where else can you bang out your holiday shopping with a cocktail in hand, sushi in your tummy and listening to some of the city’s top DJs?
See you there!
