Fashion Houston, presented by
Audi, premieres Thursday through Sunday, October 11 through 14, in Houston at the
Wortham Theater Center. A year in the making, the roster of designers and runway shows was still growing at press time but promises to be impressive. Houston’s social doyenne
Lynn Wyatt will show a collection of her favorite haute couture gowns at the Worth Theater Center, then it will move to
Neiman Marcus. The Wortham Center venue will host runway shows and pop-up shops from local retailers, the
Galleria will set up Stylist Closets in the tents,
Laura Mercier will take over the VIP lounge, and the final event will honor legendary model-maven
Eileen Ford, co-founder of Ford Models, who will appear. The gala evening, “Eileen Ford: Six Decades of Defining Beauty,” will be a multimedia and runway show of famous Ford faces, sponsored by
Neiman Marcus. Legendary model
Carmen Dell‘Orefice will also make an appearance. The powers behind this fashion feat —
Jared Lang (director of Houston Audi dealerships),
Neal Hamil (a former EVP at Ford Models and former president of Elite Models in NY) and
Page Parkes promise a fashion-packed four-day lineup. Get your tickets now before the coveted front row fills up. Watch for the complete schedule and behind-the-scenes information in a special Fashion Houston insert in the October issue of
