Carmen Marc Valvo: Designer to the Stars Launches Book in Houston

Join DISH, Neal Hamil Agency and for Carmen Marc Valvo's Houston book launch and a fashion show of his Spring And Fall 2011 collection at Neiman Marcus Monday March 7th! Seats to the fashion show: CLICK HERE for TICKETS

Having established a solid reputation with his Collection line, Valvo launched Carmen Marc Valvo Couture in 1998, in response to overwhelming demand from his celebrity and VIP clients, who wanted original Carmen Marc Valvo creations that would set them apart from the fashion pack. The Couture collection is presented twice a year during the New York Fashion Week. These lavish presentations highlight the extraordinary craftsmanship and painstaking hand-detailing that place the Couture collection in a league of its own.
Carmen is an Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) Ambassador and has given both his time and money to the organization, which has helped raise Millions of dollars for Colon Cancer Research. Carmen has always utilized his designs to help with many causes over the years, but especially the NCCRA (National Colorectal Cancer Research Alliance). As a colon cancer survivor, Carmen Marc Valvo has been working with Katie Couric, since she partnered with 7th on Sixth in 2004, to bring attention and support of research of this deadly disease. His efforts, on behalf of the organization, were honored at a gala in March 2006 in New York where Carmen received the first ever Advocate Award from Katie Couric. In 2008 Carmen appeared with his dear friend Vanessa Williams in a national broadcast and print public service campaign to encourage early screening for colon cancer.
 
This is a huge once in a life time opportunity so we hope you take advantage of this amazing chance to see Carmen Marc Valvo's Couture line up close and in person with the designer himself.
See you Monday!

Yo Dutchess!!

Sarah Ferguson, The Dutchess of York graces Houston with her self the other day and honestly, we are all the better for it! It's the second time DISH Publisher Lori Freese has had the honor of meeting the Dutchess and what a meeting it was!

She came to Houston for two things. She is the producer of THE YOUNG VICTORIA,  a movie opening in Houston on Dec. 18. The film chronicles the early life of Queen Victoria, who had a perfume sanction by Clive Christian, which is still in existence today.

So in addition to promoting the film, The Duchess also came to town to help promote the perfume at Neiman Marcus with Victoria Christian. 

The Film stars Emily Blunt and is directed by Jean-Marc Vallée. Produced by Graham King, Martin Scorsese, Tim Headington, Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess of York.

The Young Victoria tells the story of the early turbulent years of her reign and her legendary romance and marriage to Prince Albert. It also

chronicles Queen Victoria's ascension to the throne.

DISH can't wait to see it! Maybe we will give tickets away! Keep an eye out for your opportunity to win!
