About this Event

Fashion vs. Fascism: Because Democracy Should Always Be In Style

A runway revolution. One night only.

Democracy is on the line , and culture is one of our most potent safeguards.

Join us for a visually immersive evening of high fashion, music, and political theater at the inaugural Fashion vs. Fascism show, premiering in Oakland.

Using fashion’s visual impact and appeal, FvF exposes fascism’s rise in the U.S. — from the manufactured emergencies, to the shows of force in our cities, to the wholesale looting of the state by billionaires and grifters. FvF's runway illuminates pathways of resistance.

FvF is a call to action.
