1st Place

Erica Pedersen, our very own Betty Croaker Designer won the San Francisco StyleWars. Watch out New York…here we come!!

Style Wars SF

Vogue Magazine calls House of Diehl “Punk meets Warhol”… Michael Musto calls Style Battling “the newest variation on krumping.”8 contenders go head to head to create fast fashion live for the title of San Francisco Style Battle Champion, and $1000 in cash and prizes!Straight outta NYC, inspired by MC battling, Victor & Rolf/Martin-Margiela-style fashion, and mash-up DJ-ing, Style Battling is competitive fashion, created live on stage, in a matter of minutes, using anything from a pair of jeans to an umbrella to a balenciaga bag. Competitors cut, tear, burn, spray-paint, and otherwise destroy/rebuild clothing, live on models or on people pulled from the audience. This is The 8-Mile of Style. WWD meets WWF.

Style Battling is already taking the East Coast and Europe by storm. San Francisco is the first West Coast stop on the national Style Wars tour. Catch this fresh new movement NOW!

House of Diehl has taken style battling all over the world, from supporting Sonic Youth in Europe, to performing to tens of thousands of people alongside Elton John and Versace at the Life Ball in Vienna, to shows at New York’s fashion week…

Partners include: Moli.com SOMA magazine Crossroads Trading Co. 111 Minna


Participants will be judged by a panel of celebrity judges (professionals from fashion, music and media), and the champion from each city wins mad prizes, cash, and an invitation to participate in the Style Wars Grand Finale, which will take place later this year in New York City.
