Bal Harbour, FL – November 20, 2013 – It was a gem of an evening when Neiman Marcus Bal Harbour hosted its first Luxe Dinner, which featured precious jewelry from vendors like Stephen Webster, Antonini and Roberto Coin. Guests, like Grisel Ybarra and Sandra Levy, as well as Vice President/General Manager Frances Esquenazi, along with special guest Stellene Volandes, style director for Town & Country Magazine, gathered in the Precious Jewels Salon of Neiman Marcus Bal Harbour for champagne and mingling. Models showed how to wear the stunning pieces, while guests took in the collections. Dinner led guests to the Zodiac Restaurant, where purple and amber lighting set the mood for the jewel-toned event. Afterward, guests made their way back to the Precious Jewels Salon for dessert bites, champagne and even more eye candy from the collections.
