Passport to Wellness: Thompson Spa’s Jetset Celebration

Passport to Wellness: Thompson Spa’s Jetset Celebration

THE THOMPSON HOTEL spa turned National Wellness Month into a full-on runway moment. More than 300 guests gathered for an evening that fused travel, fashion and self-care into one stylish package.


The idea? Trade boarding passes for wellness stamps. Guests “traveled” through immersive experiences, each inspired by a different global destination and ritual, all while sipping cocktails, catching skyline views and watching Houston’s most fashionable take the runway.

Hosted by Gregory Palmer of Wareika Hill and Brooklynn Weatherill of LAZYI Eyewear, the vibe was high-energy and luxe — think good music, great style and a crowd fully leaning into the wellness-meets-fashion mashup. For the grand finale — the fashion show! — the lineup included Foreign Fare, Kailier, Versione, Hobbs London, Cotton Club Collection, LAZYI Eyewear, and even Ducati making its way down the runway.

“At Thompson Spa, we believe wellness is more than a routine, it’s a lifestyle,” Said Megan Fitzgerald, Director of Spa & Wellness at Thompson Houston. “The Passport Affair allowed us to connect our guests with local creatives and brands who share our passion for holistic well-being, while also tapping into the joy and healing that travel brings.”

Consider it a glamorous way to kick off Wellness Month — and a sign that Houston’s wellness scene just got a lot more global.
