THE PARTY
It’s that time of year again, when Dallasites flock back to the city, don their highest heels and head to Neiman Marcus Downtown for the annual Crystal Charity Fashion Show and Luncheon benefiting children’s charities in Dallas County. This year’s featured designer was none other than legendary Carolina Herrera, who has dressed everyone from royals and red-carpet regulars to many women in the room for special events.
THE GUESTS
Herrera was joined by her daughters, Patricia Herrera Lansing and Carolina Herrera de Baez; her CEO, François Kress; photographer Bruce Weber and his partner, Nan Bush; Neiman Marcus’ Karen Katz, Jim Gold, Ken Downing and Jeffrey Byron; and, of course, a slew of Dallas women, including Lana Andrews, Erin Mathews, Jessica Nowitzki and NBC’s Meredith Land.
THE HIGHLIGHTS
After a Champagne reception, the well-dressed crowd took to their seats to enjoy a multicourse lunch and a two-part fashion show, which featured the Crystal Charity 10 Best Dressed ladies, including Katherine Coker, Heather Esping and Julie Hawes, escorted down the runway by dashing young men, followed by models in the Carolina Herrera resort 2016 collection. ‒Nadia Dabbakeh
