Dapper Gents Gather for Fash Bash at Buck Mason

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 where you are today? We’ve stayed true to the vision of the store’s founder, Morris Penner, who relentlessly sought out unique product, with exceptional quality being a key element. Morris always used to say, “The fastest way to lose a customer is to bore him” and we agree. A percentage of every season’s budget is allocated to something new and unique. While product is key, it’s not enough. Having an excellent staff and discipline in business practices is also critical.

1,500 Miles from its OG Property on Nantucket, Palm Beach’s White Elephant Beckons

The lobby of White Elephant Palm Beach

COVERED IN VERDANT vines and flanked by tall palm trees, the entrance to the White Elephant Palm Beach feels like passing into a stately home, rather than one of the island’s newest resorts. The building is 101 years old, and while the original footprint and façade remain, the interior has a decidedly updated, ultra-luxe beach vibe.

Beloved Photographer Diagnosed with Stage-Four Cervical Cancer: How You Can Help

Photographer Jhane Hoang with two covers she photographed

ONE OF Houston CityBook’s most beloved photographers was recently diagnosed with stage four cervical cancer. Jhane Hoang has been behind the camera for some of the magazine’s most ambitious shoots — including an overnight shoot at the then-new Weiss Energy Hall at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, and a cold rainy shoot at the Houston Zoo where the crew used a concessions stand as a staging area for hair and makeup.
