Douglas Elliman Real Estate and Lucchese welcomed a stylish crowd to the bootmaker’s South Congress flagship for happy hour on Friday, Oct. 23. Formula 1 fans were already streaming into Austin, and the Longhorns were getting ready to host Ole Miss. With race day and game day still ahead, guests got an early start on the weekend over cocktails.

It was the kind of clear fall afternoon Austin waits all year for. At the Lucchese flagship, guests browsed the latest collection with La Pulga cocktails in hand. Local real estate pros and friends of both brands caught up and traded plans for the race, the game and the parties in between.

The gathering was a natural pairing of two luxury brands that share an uncompromising standard of excellence. For Douglas Elliman, that standard is defined by white glove service and an exceptional portfolio of homes, connecting clients from Austin to the world’s most coveted addresses. For Lucchese, it lives in every handcrafted boot.
