This week marks the start of the electronic music festival, Together, here in Boston. The weeklong celebration is not only about the music, but features related lectures, art, dance, technology, fashion, and other innovations that are inspired by Boston’s electronic music scene. On Feb. 14, the final day of the festival, The Get Together: Record Expo, Trade Fair and Remix Fashion Show will be held at the lovely, converted church, Villa Victoria Center for the Arts in the South End. This event mixes vinyl vendors, product demos, fashion designers, and vintage clothing dealers, but the pièce de résistance of the event is the fashion show, beginning at 4 p.m. sharp. The fashion show will feature original fashion by The Void Above, and styling from Deconize and Carrigan dB.
