    Fashionable Fundraising

    Well-heeled Dallasites pop up to party ahead of glamorous gala-auction

    Glamorous Dallasites have had Two x Two for AIDS and Art circled on their calendars for months. The annual Rachofsky House benefit for amfAR, the Foundation for AIDS Research, and the Dallas Museum of Art is one of the most anticipated society events of fall.

    This year marks the 20th anniversary of the starry gala dinner and contemporary art auction. While the October 27 extravaganza is already sold out, a number of run-up events this fall are helping to mark the momentous occasion.

    Pop-up shop at Forty Five Ten
    Dallas-based retailer Forty Five Ten has opened a pop-up shop celebrating the event's 20th anniversary, and stylish shoppers turned out to welcome its arrival.

    On September 19, Two x Two founders Cindy and Howard Rachofsky hosted a pop-up event preview party at Forty Five Ten, where they enjoyed passed bites from The Joule, Cindy’s Margarita with Casa Dragones’ Blanco Tequila, and music by DJ Lucy Wrubel.

    Well-heeled attendees included Jessica Nowitzki, Nasiba and Thomas Hartland-Mackie, Brian Bolke and Faisal Halum, Rob Dailey, Jeny Bania, Suzanne and David Droese, Cindy Ferris, Meghan Looney, Lisa and John Runyon, along with Joe Cole and Forty Five Ten’s president and chief creative officer Kristen Cole.

    The pop-up shop carries exclusive designer brands who have donated a range of signature pieces and will be open through October 27 at the flagship, 1615 Main St., Dallas. (Items are also available on the amfAR site.)

    “Over our 20 years, we have been extraordinarily blessed with the support of so many designers, luxury brands, and generous supporters," says Cindy Rachofsky in a release. "Along with our sponsor Forty Five Ten, we wanted to celebrate this special anniversary and provide a one-of-a-kind shopping experience commemorating our milestone.”

    Among the pop-up shop highlights is a series of limited-edition T-shirts designed by some of the fashion industry’s leading names, each retailing for $200. The designers include Rosie Assoulin, Aquazurra, Alberta Feretti, Prabal Gurung, Mary Katrantzou, Derek Lam, Adam Lippes, Peter Pilotto, Lela Rose, Proenza Schouler, Jeremy Scott for Moschino, Carine Roitfeld, Christian Siriano, Emilia Wickstead, and David Yurman.

    Notable brands also have donated signature pieces, such as a set of sipping tequila glassware and a margarita glass from Casa Dragones; special edition handbags from Nancy Gonzalez; and a custom diamond necklace with a child’s name from Sue Gragg Precious Jewels.

    Coffee table book
    To mark the 20th anniversary, the Dallas Museum of Art has published TWO x TWO x TWENTY: Two Decades Supporting Contemporary Art at the Dallas Museum of Art. The book celebrates 20 years of significant contemporary art acquisitions and exhibitions made possible by proceeds from the Two x Two for AIDS and Art auction.

    The book includes a look at the works the museum has acquired thanks to Two x Two, as well as an essay by Anna Katherine Brodbeck, The Nancy and Tim Hanley associate curator of contemporary art, chronicling the auction’s history and impact on the Museum and the Dallas arts community.

    The book retails for $55 at the Forty Five Ten pop-up shop, and in October, will be available at the DMA Store.

    Two x Two First Look Party
    The gala may be sold out, but organizers say there are still tickets available to the First Look Party, which takes place October 25 at the Rachofsky House. Attire is "white hot" for this, the most famous preview party in Dallas. Guests will sip cocktails, sample cuisine, and peruse the year's featured artworks. (Artist Dana Schutz will be the honored artist at the gala.)

    For those who absolutely can't wait to be surprised, the art auction catalog is now online. "Own it Now" bidding begins October 19.

    Since its inception,Two x Two for AIDS and Art has raised over $75 million in support of amfAR’s essential AIDS research initiatives and the Dallas Museum of Art’s Contemporary Art Acquisitions Fund. To date, more than 260 works of art have been acquired by the Dallas Museum of Art with proceeds from Two x Two.

    A giant mixed-use development in the Knox Street neighborhood that will include a hotel, office, residential, restaurants, and retail has revealed the first four stores moving in, and three are making their Texas debut: lifestyle brands Doen, Staud, and Toteme. TWP, which has a location at Highland Park Village, will also open up shop at Knox Street.

    “After years of strategic planning and forging incredible partnerships, we are collaborating with the best brands and teams across every industry to create a truly distinct vision for world-class shopping, dining, hospitality, and residential living,” says Sabrina Gleizer, partner, BDT & MSD Partners, in the release.

    The project is a joint venture partnership of MSD Partners, Trammell Crow Company, The Retail Connection, and Highland Park Village Associates. It sits on a four-acre site adjacent to the Katy Trail and is expected to open in 2026.

    Upon completion, it will total one million square feet of mixed-use space, including a hotel managed by the Auberge Resorts Collection.

    “We’re extremely excited to bring such a dynamic collection of prominent brands, with both global and local prestige, to Knox Street,” says Stephen Summers, head of retail leasing for Knox Street, in the release.

    Without further delay, here are descriptions of all four retailers coming to Knox Street, as described, in full, in the release (including the all-CAPS style):

    DÔEN
    "Launched in 2016 and founded by Santa Barbara-born sisters, Margaret and Katherine Kleveland, and a Collective of partners, DÔEN is a digitally-led, multi-channel fashion and lifestyle brand. Their mission is to create lasting, beautiful collections while supporting individuals in all aspects of their organization, supply chain, and community. The collections celebrate womanhood, thoughtfully designed for women and the bustling, busy, and beautiful lives they live in their clothes. The pieces are meticulously crafted to be passed on for generations, evoking a timeless whimsy and an unapologetic femininity. The brand works with domestic and international partners who share their values and commitment to gender and social equality as well as giving back by partnering with foundations that directly benefit their employees and surrounding communities. DÔEN’s current shops include Brentwood Country Mart, Montecito Country Mart, Lido Marina Village and Marin Country Mart in California, in addition to locations in New York City, Sag Harbor and Nantucket."

    STAUD
    "In 2015, Sarah “Staud” Staudinger and George Augusto co-founded the LA-based lifestyle brand STAUD upon the idea that fashion shouldn’t just empower women – it should be accessible, too. At the heart of STAUD is design. Crafted at the intersection of timeless classics and perfect novelty, STAUD offers a collection of clothing, handbags, shoes and accessories to the modern woman who appreciates both. Current locations include Los Angeles, New York, Palm Beach, Boston, East Hampton, Nantucket, Georgetown, and a pop-up at MARKET in Highland Park Village."

    TOTEME
    "TOTEME is a fashion house rooted in Swedish sensibilities, modern aspirations and the notion of style. With an appreciation for women’s many roles and how pieces are worn in practice, TOTEME crafts emblematic designs with an emphasis on materiality and shape. Archetype pieces are examined through a female lens and realized with sumptuous fabrics, rich textures and graphic silhouettes. Representing a direct and decisive way of dressing, the collections are contextualized in curated edits, visuals and spaces. TOTEME was founded in 2014 by Elin Kling and Karl Lindman. From its atelier in Stockholm, the house creates ready-to-wear, shoes, bags, accessories and jewelry. TOTEME currently has store locations in New York City, Los Angeles, and Aspen."

    TWP
    "Trish Wescoat Pound has spent a lifetime dedicated to designing clothes for Women. Trish founded TWP to offer her own take on American sportswear; effortless, unbound, understated pieces that complement the reality of women’s lives. Raised in Oklahoma, although undoubtedly a New Yorker at heart, she blends the utilitarian spirit of the American Midwest with a metropolitan sensibility. Each season draws upon Trish’s core influences: American heritage workwear, men’s inspired shirting and tailoring, and the brand’s home, New York City. Working with her daughter, Jillian, a stylist, the duo leads the creative across the brand. This intergenerational dialogue – of relevance and wisdom – is a strong source of inspiration to all of Trish’s collections. TWP currently hosts a space in Highland Park Village, in addition to three stores in New York, a boutique in Palm Beach, West Hollywood, and Aspen."
