While February 1, 2011 marked our first day open to the public, February 10 was the day we celebrated. Azur West owners Nick Brines and Greg Decker celebrated the opening with over 300 guests including local fashion favorite Chloe Dao, the Houston Ballet’s Jo Furr, Jean Maye and Joanna Hartland.
The grand opening event featured complimentary wines by the Wine Sisterhood of Canopy Wines, a specialty Zentini cocktail themed by INOA – the new haircolor revolution by L’Oréal Professionnel – and savory treats by Eddie V’s. Guests marveled at Neal Hamil models who were fully clad in Asian-inspired geisha hair art by Azur West Haigo Artists and makeup by Jen Marine and Sarah Tucker.
