Retro Couture 10th Year Anniversary Screening
Dec 01, 2026
From: 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM
Miami’s vintage fashion scene and history as a clothing manufacturing center come into focus through the stories of five local industry pioneers. Christopher Rapalo’s documentary Retro Couture returns for a tenth-anniversary screening on Tuesday, December 1 at Wolfson Archives on Miami Dade College’s Wolfson Campus in downtown Miami, during Miami Art Week.
The 20-minute film explores how vintage clothing informs contemporary style while considering Miami’s evolving place in the fashion industry. Released in 2016, it received the audience award at the Miami Fashion Film Festival and Best Florida Short Film at the Key West Film Festival.
The evening includes a post-screening Q&A with Rapalo and Lauren Arkin, who appears in the documentary, moderated by Aurelis. Coffee is sponsored by Club 27 Coffee Miami, with live portraits by MichiVice available throughout the evening for a suggested donation.
Screenings are scheduled for 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. Guests should select their preferred screening and check the time on their ticket. The venue is located at 315 NE 2nd Avenue, Room 8406.
