Modern Luxury Houston: Fresh Faces of Fashion

Modern Luxury Houston: Fresh Faces of Fashion

     There are plenty of reasons why Modern Luxury’s Fresh Faces of Fashion is one of our most anticipated events of the year. Being a part of this fashionable and historical night for the past several years has been nothing short of fabulous.  The Ninth Annual Fresh Faces of Fashion was held in the evening of June 4th at The Menil Collection. John and Dominique de Menil were a couple with a strong belief in the spiritual powers of art. The construction of the Menil Collection was a plan by the pair shortly before John’s death, to house their art collection in a place that was welcome to everybody. A decade into her widowhood, Dominique de Menil hired an architect to design the space that John and her envisioned; as a thank you to him for opening her eyes and heart to art. The ceremonial ribbon was cut on June 4, 1987, making Fresh Faces of Fashion, truly an honorable night; celebrating not only art in all forms, but The Menil Collection’s 27th anniversary.   
 
     Sponsors included Mercedes-Benz Dealers of Greater Houston, Modern Luxury Houston, The Menil Collection, Swift + Company, LG, Tootsies, Estilo Salon and Spa, Deep Eddy Vodka and Page Parkes. This edition allowed guests to preview the exhibition: A Thin Wall of Air: Charles James. Charles James is considered by many to be America’s first couturier. He established himself as a premier fashion designer for an elite group of clients including John and Dominique de Menil. James even went on to dress the interior of the Menil home- his only residential commission. He believed that the true possibilities of design didn’t lie in the human form or in the material, but in the space between body and fabric, described as “A Thin Wall of Air”. The exhibition presented a variety of James’ personal collection, along with furniture that was designed for the Menil home.

 
   Guests in attendance received the treat of a fashion presentation by Tootsies- one of the event sponsors. Besides charmingly welcoming attendants to a night of fashion, Linking Specialists proudly represented Mercedes-Benz- another one of the event sponsors, and signed guests up to win an exclusive prize package!  Our Linking Specialists always dress to impress at this fun, fashionable evening.

K900 Launch Party

Wednesday, March 05, 2014-  


 This year marks KIA MOTORS’ 20th anniversary in the U.S market and the all-new 2015 K900 is a perfect way of showing how far the brand has come. With its full-size rear drive and an extensive list of standard equipment, the K900 is more than a milestone; it’s the ultimate demonstration of the strength and unlimited potential of the KIA brand. Because of this, Linking Events is excited to announce that we were entrusted to ensure every detail was precise for the K900 Launch Party in Atlanta, GA at the Piedmont Estate on March 4. Linking Specialists greeted VIP guests and helped showcase the vehicle. The Piedmont Estate opened its rich history in 1797 as a beautiful social event venue. Its 3 acres are situated in the heart of Buckhead and is the perfect mix of historical elegance and renovated sophistication. This makes the Estate the perfect venue to showcase the K900’s sleek lines and graceful appearance.

Crohn's & Colitis: Winter Ball 2014

Houston, TX--


Carnavale di Venezia was the theme Saturday night. January 25, 2014 at the Hilton-Americas Hotel, the eleven ABC 13 Women of Distinction were presented at the annual Winter Ball. The event is sponsored by the Mercedes-Benz Dealers of Greater Houston and benefits the cure research and patient programs. 


Crohn’s disease is an ongoing disorder that causes inflammation of the digestive tract, also referred to as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This disease affects as many as 700,000 Americans. Crohn's and colitis can occur to anyone and is not gender or age specific, Crohn's is most common among adolescents and young adults between the ages of 15 and 35. Crohn’s is known as a genetic sensitive disease, so if you or a close relative have the disease, your family members have a significantly increased chance of developing Crohn’s. Studies have shown that 5% to 20% of affected individuals have a first – degree relative (parents, child, or sibling) with one of the diseases.


We are proud to continuously work alongside the Mercedes-Benz of Greater Houston Dealer group for such noble causes.

Mercedes-Benz Presents Fashion Funds the Cure


This year on March 9, Linking Events will be in Tampa celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the Fashion Funds the Cure event. Mercedes-Benz, a major contributor to the cause, will once again team up with the Pediatric Cancer Foundation to help host the occasion.


The Pediatric Cancer Foundation is a nonprofit organization that dedicates itself to funding research to finding the cure to childhood cancer. More than 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year and despite this fact, this is a consistently underfunded cause. All proceeds from this event will benefit the Pediatric Cancer Foundation.
Fashion Funds the Cure has been helping dreams come true for the past decade. This celebration brings together young girls who battle cancer every day and rejoices unsurpassed strength and courage. Celebrity host Carson Kressley joined the girls, on February 10th at Neiman Marcus, for a day of pampering away from treatments and hospital visits. After being chauffeured to the store, volunteers helped the girls enjoy manicures, pedicures and a full day of relaxation! In preparation for the fashion show the girls were treated to lunch and had a chance to choose outfits from the store.
Linking Events would like to take this opportunity to encourage you to visit the www.Fastercure.org and learn more about the Pediatric Cancer Foundation.
