I stopped into Graffiti Beach on Fern St. in South Park today in search of a dress for a 1990’s theme party I am attending. While there, I ran into Ilse Valfre, a well-known illustrator and model from Sonora, Mexico. Ilse has been featured in magazines such as Nylon and Seventeen.

Name: Ilse Valfre

Age: 25

Occupation: Illustrator/Model

Favorite Wardrobe Piece: Ilse's current obsession is turbans

Ilse was at Graffiti Beach doing a photo shoot for their upcoming holiday magazine.

Ilse’s hand-studded shorts and top are by Shegreetstheday, a line from local designer Jane Domingo. Her scarf is from San Francisco based brand,Stolen Sunday. Her accessories are from Beatrice Holiday. The bracelet is made from a bike chain. All items can be purchased at Graffiti Beach.

Isle’s dress is made by 8,000 Nerves, a LA based brand. It isn't in stores yet, but come December Graffiti Beach will have it in stock.
