Weekend Roundup: Saint Harridan Pop-Up, Thank Goddess It’s OMG Comes to an End, the Legendary Crystal Ball and More

There’s an old adage — you know the one — that says “clothes make the man,” and trans clothing designer Saint Harridan here to making the saying true for women and FTM transgender people, too. This innovative company began with the mission of designing clothes that, “fit your body and your gender.”

Shoppers can buy Saint Harridan’s suits and accessories online at any time, but those looking for a more personal shopping experience can head to its three-day pop-up shop in Philly, starting Friday at the Hampton Inn.

The shop will be open alongside The Love of Bois Project, a photo exploration that celebrates “masculine of center” individuals, or in other words lesbian/queer/women that embrace and identify with the more masculine end of the gender spectrum. So pop down for its opening reception Friday at 6 p.m. to browse some art, get fitted for suits and to meet the go-getters behind this fantastic project. Friday to Sunday, June 13-15, free, Hampton Inn, 1301 Race Street.
