Sneak Peek: Check Out Houston-Based Foreign Fare’s Spring 2025 Collection

A new look from the soft landings collection

FROM THE OWNERS of popular Montrose haunts Traveler’s Table and Traveler’s Cart is another jetset-focused business. Owners Thy and Matthew Mitchell launched Foreign Fare in the fall of 2023 with long-haul travelers in mind. The pieces are wrinkle-free and designed to be functional as well as stylish. The line was recently featured in Travel & Leisure as a “first class look.”


The Spring 2025 collection includes three new concepts. The soft landing collection is ultra-plush and made for hitting the streets after an overseas flight. The zip away vest can be worn three ways and is meant to be layered — ideal for going from humid Houston to a cooler destination. And, the PaperChic pants offer an elastic waistband in the back for a comfortable but flattering fit.

“I am thrilled to debut these new styles for Foreign Fare, expanding our collection to meet the needs of today’s modern, stylish traveler,” said Thy. “Inspired by my own travels, I designed these pieces to seamlessly combine sophistication and practicality to offer essentials that elevate the travel experience. I can’t wait to see others embrace them on their adventures.”

Take a look at the Spring 2025 collection below.

Acquiring fame for their alkaline springs in the 17th century, the Romans were among the first to recognize the therapeutic benefits of the springs. They established a French spa known as “Vichy,” which still exists today and continues to attract spa-goers from around the world to experience the transformative effects of hydrotherapy.

The lobby of White Elephant Palm Beach

COVERED IN VERDANT vines and flanked by tall palm trees, the entrance to the White Elephant Palm Beach feels like passing into a stately home, rather than one of the island’s newest resorts. The building is 101 years old, and while the original footprint and façade remain, the interior has a decidedly updated, ultra-luxe beach vibe.

Photographer Jhane Hoang with two covers she photographed

ONE OF Houston CityBook’s most beloved photographers was recently diagnosed with stage four cervical cancer. Jhane Hoang has been behind the camera for some of the magazine’s most ambitious shoots — including an overnight shoot at the then-new Weiss Energy Hall at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, and a cold rainy shoot at the Houston Zoo where the crew used a concessions stand as a staging area for hair and makeup.
