One of the reasons I knew I wanted to move back to Pittsburgh was to help actually make a change in the fashion scene here (something nearly impossible in NYC). #fastforward 10 years and I have the honor of being on the team that is helping to bring this historical festival to life! The first of its kind, I hope to see you at the super exciting events that we have planned during the week!! Come support @style412 & the lovely @rowhousecinema! #style412 #stylefouronetwo #fashionfilmfestival #pittsburghfashion

Style412 is a nonprofit dedicated to boosting the local fashion scene.

Show times and ticketing information can be found at rowhousecinema.com.

The festival kicks off at 12:45 p.m. Friday with “Clueless.” Prior to the 7 p.m. screening of “The True Cost,” a criticial examination of the fast-fashion business, a panel of local experts will discuss responsible retail and sustainable practices within the Pittsburgh fashion industry.

Other events include a brunch on Sunday from nearby restaurant Reed & Company before a matinee.

The festival concludes Sept. 26 with a party for the screening of “Halston.” Released earlier this year, the documentary follows the life and work of the 1970s designer Roy Halston Frowick.
