What: Etro grand opening event
Where: Highland Park Village
The 411: Kean Etro enlisted the help of fashionable Dallasites Todd Fiscus, Ceron, Christine Handy, and Jamie O’Banion to help throw an intimate shopping soirée in celebration of his new 2,300-square-foot store offering womenswear, menswear, accessories, and a new line of fragrances.

DJ Lucy Wrubel'stunes were playing in the background as models paraded around the room in the brand's latest lines.
