Dapper Gents Gather for Fash Bash at Buck Mason

Travis Brady, William Finnorn and Michael Hogan

ON A DELIGHTFULLY crisp autumn night, a group of dapper dudes gathered to peruse Buck Mason’s Fall 2023 collection in the hip Montrose Collective development, which is quickly becoming a see-and-be scene.


Upon arrival, gentlemen mingled over Maker’s Mark Old Fashioned cocktails and charcuterie boards by neighboring wine bar Fiora’s Bottle Shop, all while perusing the seasonable wares (and the classic car parked in the middle of the store!). The sip-and-see was hosted by The Montrose Collective, Buck Mason and William Finnorn of Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty.

Just in time for Houston’s cold front next week, Buck Mason’s fall 2023 collection promises a collection of refined textured knits and relaxed thermal layers and flannels.

How did you get to where you are today? The present moment is a combined history of my family, my time as an athlete, my passion for learning, and my desire to see the world be better. I grew up as a successful springboard and platform diver, however, an injury caused me to seek alternative treatments to heal my body. In that process, I discovered the power of yoga, exercise, meditation, mindset, and nutrition. This holistic approach eventually led me to open a Pilates and cycling studio called DEFINE body & mind. I opened studios around the nation, and after selling most of my business between 2017-2019, I was ready to explore how I could make an even greater impact on the wellbeing of our community. In 2023, I started actively working on a brand new multi-family/apartment concept called, Define Living. The idea focused on offering health and wellness services within a beautiful apartment setting to increase the wellbeing of our residents. Having a strong sense of community is the number one factor in living a happy life, so why not build a community where daily fitness, cooking classes, and social connection are the norm? We opened Define Living in March of 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with how things are being received. We are already looking at building more concepts like this in the Houston area and beyond.

How did you get to where you are today? A few key principles integrated into my life: setting clear goals, maintaining a growth mindset, building strong habits, and surrounding myself with the right people. Goals provided direction, while a growth mindset helped me turn challenges into opportunities for learning. Consistent habits, like disciplined work and effective communication, kept me moving forward. Being surrounded by motivated, supportive individuals has elevated my standards and kept me accountable. They’ve provided advice, encouragement, and sometimes that extra push I needed to stay on track. With these elements, I’ve been able to create a framework that helps me succeed and ensures I continue to grow and evolve.
