Budding fashion designers with Artists for Humanity shared the limelight at the South Boston beauty studio Sarra during last week's preview of their first collection, called “Les Quatres Elements.” Fetching totes, cosmetic bags, and clutches made of recycled fabrics and adorned with ribbons, beads, and buttons, were set off perfectly by white display tables and exposed brick walls. Teens from the program, which provides paid apprenticeships in the arts, snapped photos and chatted with friends and mentors while we circled the room and pulled aside a few of the well-attired attendees.
