    The final curtain might have fallen on the Fashion Houston scene at Wortham Theater Center around 10 p.m. Thursday, but the party continued at Hotel ZaZa as CultureMap and the Fashion Houston crowd teamed up for a fashionista-infused conclusion to the four-night style fest. Party headliners were designers Monique Lhuillier and Gemma Kahng and 2012 Style Icon Diane Lokey Farb.

    The fashion set took over Monarch Bistro where DJ John Tran kept the music grooving and where models on elevated platforms showcased designs by Kahng, hot looks that had been shown earlier in the evening at the Wortham.

    Events in Bloom added its special touch to the atmosphere by providing eight one-of-a-kind, fashion-themed arrangements that had everyone talking about the playful creativity.

    Monarch chef Jonathan Jones provided sustenance to keep the late-night energy flowing while Grey Goose cocktails inspired the chatty fun.

    Holding up the local end of the design focus were David Peck, Chloe Dao and Jerri Moore, each of whom had had a moment in the Fashion Houston spotlight earlier in the week.

    VIPs in the mix included Fashion Houston founder Jared Lang, Fashion Houston executive director Neal Hamil, Houston Texans Connor Barwin and J.J. Watt and Tootsies' Mickey Rosemarin.

    Rounding out the party scene were Neera Patidar, Elizabeth Petersen, Joyce Echols, Todd Ramos, Estela Cockrell, Edward Sanchez, Bubba McNeely, Sarah Tressler, Brigitte Segura, Chris Goins, Jeff Shell, Michelle Yeglic and James Sivco.

    What: The Junior League of Houston Centennial Celebration

    Where: The Junior League Building

    The Scoop: Marking 100 years of service with a side of elegance and tea room classics, The Junior League of Houston toasted its Centennial in fitting form, by honoring the women and donors who’ve kept the mission alive.

    The luncheon brought together supporters for the milestone moment. Chaired by Elizabeth Kendrick, the afternoon unfolded with a keynote by Ann Stern, former league president and current Houston Endowment CEO, who spotlighted the league’s enduring legacy of community impact.

    The Tea Room served up its signature charm alongside the celebration, and true to form, League members handled the event’s planning and décor, putting their mission into action with flair. The event also marked the success of the Centennial Giving Campaign, which raised more than $2 million to support future programs.

    Who: Katie Doyle, Claire Petree, Jennifer Howard, Mitra Woody, Lauren Brown, Mimi Foerster, Amy Cominsky, Pamela Lovett, Peggy Roe, Sharyn Robinson, Emily Walter, Susan Ross, and Rachel Regan.
