The Marker Celebrates With Love Halston’s Bloom Fashion Show in Union Square

San Francisco, CA – February 2026

The Marker San Francisco is proud to spotlight the Bloom Fashion Show, hosted by With Love Halston, a nonprofit organization dedicated to uplifting emerging designers and creative talent through education, mentorship, and community-led fashion experiences.

Taking place in Union Square as part of the city’s spring cultural programming, the Bloom Fashion Show brings together fashion, art, and purpose. Led by With Love Halston in collaboration with San Francisco in Bloom and the Academy of Art University, the event centers on creative opportunity, providing a platform for student designers and young creatives to share their work in a public, highly visible setting.

“With Love Halston represents the kind of creative leadership that keeps San Francisco’s cultural ecosystem moving forward,” said Brian Fenwick, Managing Director of The Marker San Francisco. “Their work supports emerging voices while creating inclusive, community-driven moments that feel authentic to Union Square and the city as a whole.”

Founded with the mission of making fashion more accessible and socially engaged, With Love Halston focuses on mentorship, education, and real-world exposure for designers at the beginning of their careers. The Bloom Fashion Show reflects this mission by highlighting original collections from Academy of Art University students and showcasing fashion as a form of storytelling, self-expression, and community connection.

Set against Union Square’s seasonal transformation during San Francisco in Bloom, the event reinforces the neighborhood’s role as a cultural gathering place, where creativity extends beyond galleries and theatres and into public space.

Located just steps from Union Square, The Marker San Francisco is proud to support and celebrate events that elevate local talent and contribute to the city’s creative future. For guests staying at the hotel, the Bloom Fashion Show offers a uniquely San Francisco experience, one rooted in artistry, collaboration, and purpose.
