    Katherine Hooker brings her signature British designs to Dallas and falls inlove with the Cowboys

    British designer Katherine Hooker received a proper Dallas welcome at a private cocktail party and trunk show hosted by Gene Jones, Charlotte Anderson and sportscaster (and loyal customer) Michele Tafoya.

    Guests including Candice Romo, Jennifer Counce, Nancy Dedman, Brill Garrett, Susan Hayner, Lana Andrews and Sue Justice fancied the fabrics — ranging from heavyweight tweeds to cashmeres, lambswool, herringbone linen and matka silks — sourced from the British Isles.

    Back across the pond, Hooker dresses the likes of the Duchess of Cambridge and Pippa Middleton in signature tweed coats and blazers. But it was a certain sports figure — and his wife — that caught Hooker’s attention here in Dallas.

    “It was so exciting to meet the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys,” Hooker said. “He’s like the prince of Dallas, and his wife is Dallas’ answer to Kate Middleton.

    “I talked to the head of the cheerleaders. It was such a fascinating experience. The culture just doesn’t exist anywhere else but in America, and Dallas is the epitomy of it.”

    If you missed the designer’s trunk show at Elements this past weekend, don’t fret. You can view the ready-to-wear collection online and order made-to-measure pieces through the Katherine Hooker website anytime. All shipping and fees are included in the cost, as Hooker sees it fit for catering to her overseas customers.

    2 new shops join lineup at Firewheel Town Center in Garland

    Two new retailers are joining the lineup at Firewheel Town Center, the outdoor shopping, dining, and entertainment destination in Garland on the corner of the President George Bush Tollway and HW 78.

    Both sell shoes.

    Vans: Vans is a brand of footwear, apparel, and accessories known for its association with skate and street culture. They feature a signature waffle rubber sole for grip and durability, and often a minimalist, canvas upper for breathability and comfort.

    Founded in southern California in 1966, Vans champions authenticity, creativity, and a rebellious spirit, and is popular among skaters, artists, musicians, and young people globally.

    There are currently eight Vans locations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area including NorthPark, Galleria Dallas, Mesquite, Allen Outlet Mall, Stonebriar in Frisco, Grand Prairie Outlet Mall, Grapevine Mills, Arlington, Northeast Mall in Hurst, Tanger Outlets Mall in Fort Worth, and Hulen Mall in Fort Worth.

    The Firewheel location will open in November 2025, located next to Buckle.

    Tradehome Shoes: For more than 100 years, Midwestern shoppers have relied on Tradehome Shoes for their footwear. They offer a complete line-up of footwear for everyone and for every need, with brand names like Adidas, New Balance, Dansko, Minnetonka Moccasin, and Steve Madden.

    Their name originated from the idea of "Trading-at-Home," encouraging shoppers to support (trade) in their local communities (home). Based in Cottage Grove, Minnesota, just southeast of Minneapolis, they're 100 percent employee-owned, and have impact programs like giving shoes to schools.

    They also sell some clothing and accessories, from hats and T-shirts to hoodies and sweatshirts, mostly for training, lounging, or everyday wear.

    There are currently three locations in the DFW area: Frisco, Arlington, and Fort Worth.

    The Firewheel Town Center location is open now next to Old Navy, and will feature shoes for every season, occasion, and lifestyle, along with apparel from brands like RIVAL and UNRL.
