Native Texan and New York City-based fashion designer, Lela Rose, celebrated the debut of the exclusive festive holiday collaboration with Bowie House, Auberge Resorts Collection in Fort Worth, Texas.
Inspired by her Texas roots and Bowie House’s sophisticated urban retreat, the partnership blends Lela’s signature style with the hotel’s luxury and charm, reflecting Fort Worth’s distinctive character.
As guests arrived at Bowie House, Auberge Resorts Collection, they were greeted with the western, luxurious ambiance that Bowie House offers. The hotel’s curated art collection, warm textures, and thoughtful design elements showcased its distinctive character, creating an inviting setting that reflected both Fort Worth’s heritage and contemporary sophistication.
Guests enjoyed signature cocktails curated by The Bar at Bowie House while browsing the exclusive Lela Rose x Bowie House collection.
The collection features a limited-edition tree skirt, with only 12 made, paneled in Reyrosa toile, a custom print featuring Western motifs inspired by Lela’s family ranch. The skirt’s scalloped edges are tied with bows and backed with reversible black-and-white gingham, offering timeless versatility for holiday décor. Also included are festive bows crafted in the same custom toile, enhanced with beading along the edges. These bows are designed for multiple uses, from chic hair accessories to table styling or even as a unique bolo tie alternative. Guests could also shop select items from the Lela Rose Ranch Collection which included twill fringe capes, floral seed bead classic ranch shirts, vintage concho belts sourced by Lela, and more.
Light bites were passed by Bricks + Horses, Bowie House's signature restaurant, known for its celebration of modern American cuisine. Each dish highlighted the rich flavors of Texas, showcasing ingredients sourced from local ranches and farms.
At the end of the evening, guests were gifted with Lela’s cocktail book Fresh Air Affairs, gift cards from the Bowie House spa, co-branded chocolates wrapped in Reyrosa toile by Tuck Shop and a bottle of tequila - Lela’s spirit of choice - by Lalo.
