Food and fashion dinner
Neiman Marcus, Scottsdale, AZ
Inspired by the vibrant colors of Arizona citrus, this Food & Fashion Dinner celebrated the connection between culinary artistry, fashion, and design. Guests gathered around a long table layered with bright seasonal florals by Plum Studios, where shades of orange, lemon, grapefruit, and tangerine created a joyful palette that felt distinctly Arizona. Neiman Marcus Corporate Chef Jessica Garnet crafted a menu inspired by the flavors of the desert, bringing the theme to life through every course.
The table itself became part of the presentation, draped with precious jewelry from Etho Maria and Marco Dal Maso that sparkled among the florals and place settings. Throughout the evening, live models circulated around the table showcasing looks in equally bold hues, transforming the dinner into an immersive fashion presentation. The movement of the models created a dynamic experience, allowing guests to engage with the collections from every angle while remaining part of the intimate dinner setting.
What made the evening so memorable was the seamless way each element complemented the next. From the citrus-inspired menu and vibrant florals to the fashion and fine jewelry, every detail contributed to a colorful celebration of creativity and craftsmanship. The result was an event that felt fresh, energetic, and unmistakably Arizona while remaining rooted in the luxury experience of Neiman Marcus.
