PoP-UP RoUnd-UP It's a Clear(fork) WInner W hen Fort Worth artist Natalie Erwin threw a kickoff party for Clearfork Round-Up — the ultimate two-day pop-up created by Erwin at The Shops at Clearfork — we knew we were in for quite a social and shopping fête. Nearly 500 guests perused the offerings at the indoor/outdoor socially distanced shopping event, where Erwin's cousins, Meredith Richter Davis and Mary Margaret Richter, greeted guests on horseback. Wildflowers and grasses cut from the fields around Clearfork lent a ranch feel, while David Dike curated artwork (including Erwin's) throughout the pop-up. Madre's Mia Brous, Louise Marsh, and Keri Goldfarb, along with interior designer Traci White, created vignettes to showcase their wares. Sarah Amanda Bray, who made the trip from Bermuda where she lives, wore one of her sunny taffeta caftans and caused an absolute frenzy with her collection of sun hats, while Sue Sartor stocked her section with her signature breezy Paloma puff- sleeved dresses and caftans in every hue and pattern. The impeccable Jane Scott Hodges of Leontine Linens flew in from home base in New Orleans to stock her pop-up with luxurious monogrammed bedding; nearby, Margaret Farrell, Margo Bush, and Courtney McGrail perused Miron Crosby's cowboy boots and designer Lisa Henderson's fabric, wallpaper, and lampshades. Outside, textile designer Lisa Fine signed a flurry of tomes, while Maggie McMordie doled out her mother Cathy Kincaid's decorating book. Glasses were filled with vino from Lost Oak Winery in Burleson and whiskey Ranch Waters from TX Whiskey far into the evening, until the crowd filtered out for late dinners in Clearfork.
