Style Week No. 15 Recap

Tribeza Style Week, a celebration of Austin’s best in fashion, design, food, and film, has come and gone. Whether you were there celebrating with us, or observing from afar, we have all the highlights from this year’s week of events.

Kick Off Party

Tribeza Style Week No. 15 kicked off at Kendra Scott’s stunning headquarters. Guests mingled and caught up while viewing this year’s Drivers of Style Portrait Gallery, presented by Lexus. Thanks to Playa Real, Treaty Oak, Whispering Angel, and Chateau Ste. Michelle, the drinks were flowing as everyone posed the night away in front of the custom and gif-ready photo booth. Music was spun by DJ Jamin, delicious bites, courtesy of Guild and Gusto, were devoured as everyone received in-house nail treatments and giveaways were offered by Westlake Dermatology. Festive partygoers were gifted charms from Kendra Scott’s new collection and treats by Milk + Honey on their way out the door. Many thanks to all who joined for such a memorable evening.

Dinner X Design

This year’s Dinner x Design, hosted by Tru-Skin Dermatology and held at private club The Pershing, was a night of wonder. Thanks to Matthew Tsang’s otherworldly floral and forest tablescape, Joe Holm of Clayton & Little Interiors and his lush terra firma with gorgeous florals from Bella by Sara, Shannon Eddings’ hanging portrait salon, and Rachel Horn’s Moroccan hideaway, all expectations were exceeded. Before sitting down for dinner, and in between many Instagram-worthy moments, libations were served courtesy of Playa Real, Treaty Oak, Imagery Wines, and Richard’s Rainwater. Next, everyone settled in for the main event, a multi-course elegant dinner, served up from Austin’s top chefs and restaurants: The Pershing, Rosewood, The Brewer’s Table, and Il Brutto. Each meal was unforgettable. Many thanks to Outdoor Voices, Estilo, Milk + Honey, and Ubuntu Life for providing the evening’s coveted goodie bags and to Loot for being our exclusive rental partner for the evening.

Night at the Movies

Night at the Movies was a huge success thanks to our wonderful hosts at the AFS Cinema, where we screened the poignant and eye-opening film “The Gospel According to André.” Fashion and film fans alike gathered in the beautifully redone theater for bites courtesy of Lucky Lime (curried popcorn!) and drinks courtesy of Playa Real and Treaty Oak. Thanks to our wonderful panel members — Kristan Glass, Taylor Jarrett, Jen Pinkston, and Stephanie Beard — everyone left the evening with a fresh take on Austin’s position as a fashion and style destination. Milk + Honey, The Mrs and Tiny Boxwoods kept everyone smiling as they headed out into the fall evening.

Lookbook Live

For this year’s final event we abandoned the runway and tried something new! Our Fall Fashion Lookbook was brought to life thanks to Esby Apparel, The Garden Room, Raven + Lily, Olivia Shoppe, Neiman Marcus and Good Company. With Mattie’s as the backdrop, models posed, and our fashion-forward guests sipped, nibbled, and shopped. Drinks were on hand thanks to Playa Real, Treaty Oak, Imagery Wines, and Richard’s Rainwater, and we couldn’t get enough of the delicious food that was prepared by Thai Fresh, Mattie’s, and La Patisserie. Style week revelers happily shopped Due East textiles and Covet hats, eagerly tried on Lizabeth Jewelry, and good-naturedly lined up to have their lashes perfected thanks to Haute House Lash & Beauty Bar. As everyone took one last spin through the Lexus Drivers of Style Portrait Gallery, one and all were gifted treats courtesy of Milk + Honey, Kelly Wynne, FitJoy, and more. Special thanks to Urban Betty, our hair and makeup sponsor, and Loot for helping make the evening so special.

Many thanks to Charisse Sayers of Big Little Event who worked with the Tribeza Team from Style Week conception to completion.
