Deep blue gemstones forged from the night sky, sapphires don't just catch light, they immortalize it forever. Every facet of you reflected by the flash of the strobes. Polished or rough around the edges, we're all jewels cut from something rare. CATEGORY Vol. 003: Sapphire — Friday, October 23 at a Luxury Penthouse in DTLA. Featuring: Bears in Space, Stacy Christine, DJ Kerry Sapphire isn't a dress code. It's an invitation. How you interpret it is up to you — denim, sequins, satin, cool metallics, whatever blue you've got hidden in your wardrobe. There's no right or wrong. There's only you.
