The Essential Dallas-Fort Worth Where magazine turns the big 8-0 this year, so we're celebrating the milestone with 80-minute itineraries to North Texas' most-loved locales. In this issue, we head halfway between Dallas and Fort Worth to Arlington, a hub for sports and family fun. 80 MINUTES IN: Home to both the NFL's Dallas Cowboys and the Texas Rangers, this longtime entertainment destination—newly nicknamed "The American Dream City"—is the place to be this season for sports spectators, thrill-seekers and culture hounds alike. Usher in the home stretch of baseball season with a game at Globe Life Park, or take a tour of AT&T Stadium before catching a football game or

Arlington, Texas concert at the Texas-sized venue. More excitement awaits at the nearby Six Flags Over Texas, where guests can experience a virtual reality roller coaster or explore the park after dark during Fright Fest (Sept. 24-Oct. 31). Finally, stroll around downtown to take in public art installations (like the 'DREAM' sculpture pictured), seasonal festivals and live music performances at Levitt Pavilion.

Behind the Scenes Wise, bubbly and full of laughter, Hollywood veteran Elizabeth Mitchell—known most recently for “The Purge: Election Year” and 1980s-era summer camp horror TV series “Dead of Summer”—is as gracious and level-headed as she is talented. We caught up with the Dallas native to talk about channeling her former summer camp days in the Texas Hill Country, her foray into acting and what she loves most about coming home. The “Dead of Summer” finale airs this month on Freeform. How do you think audiences will react to the final episode? I’m so lucky because I just finished reading episode nine—and it’s the most terrifying episode of TV: Nonstop action, twists and turns … after reading [the script] it is by far my favorite episode; it’s scary, sad and challenging because it’s like a mystery or puzzle you’re trying to figure out.

THIS PAGE: ©FREEFORM/KATIE YU. FACING PAGE: ©ALVIN NGUYEN

You played a villainous snow queen in “Once Upon A Time” and in “Dead of Summer,” you’re a mysterious summer camp leader with a few potential dark secrets. What interests you about these types of roles or characters? I think I’m drawn to strong women. As my mom would say I have a “do-no-harm rule” and I try to walk softly, [but] when it comes to people [or characters] who have these obstacles or things in their lives that they can’t get out of their way—I find their drive so fascinating and interesting; I think maybe I’m [also] drawn to the adrenaline. As a Camp Longhorn alum, did you draw upon anything from your camp experience for your role as Deb in “Dead of Summer”? I feel like camp is such a comingof-age thing. I don’t know if I always loved it [laughs], but it did some great things for me; at the end of it I was strong, tan and ready to take on the world! My last year I gained an understanding of leadership, which I learned from watching counselors and camp directors; [there was] no coddling, and that part was really interesting. In “Dead of Summer” I think I kind of took from that idea,

but with Deb I had the obstacle of someone who is incredibly emotionally invested in the camp, which isn’t always the best because you’re thinking more about yourself and your own motives.

ting me through theater school… I was such a dorky, funny little kid, but then being on stage I felt like, this makes sense to me; this is a world that I understand. I always felt at home there and was drawn to the other actors. I found the community to be so incredible—so different than the people I’d met with my parents (both are lawyers)—friendly, inclusive, creative. Eventually I’d be sneaking into shows and watching the actors work; it felt magical to me. How would you describe the essence/culture of Dallas, and what

Mitchell (right) as Deb in Freeform’s ‘Dead of Summer’

What’s been the best part about filming “Dead of Summer”? Well, the 80’s are great, and so the music is great! I like the characters I’m working with; they’re neat kids and I love seeing how dedicated they are. Even the crew says they can’t wait to “be back at camp” ... Everybody gets a little bit more relaxed and people eat their lunches by the water ... I find the woods really comforting. The lights they put up at night make our campsite incredibly beautiful. At seven, you made your debut on stage at the Dallas Theater Center. What sparked your interest in acting at such an early age? My mom was an actress when she was younger, so I think it was her love of the art form then her put-

do you love about coming back? It’s so vibrant! My mom has a little studio and works downtown (she’s an incredible artist), and the town has really flourished and changed since I was a kid—the arts, the food. And the people are friendly and fantastic! I like the wide open streets, running at night, all the little boutique hotels ... and you get a Texas welcome! Do you travel home to Dallas often to visit your family? I try to come back every few months. I love seeing my parents, love to hang out in Mom and Dad’s backyard and I love to go to Javier’s, one of my all-time favorite places! (I always order the chicken nachos.) Then, I’ll usually go run White Rock Lake with my dad, who

runs with these group of guys ... they say they’re slow so it should be easy for me to keep up, but they’re lying! I work out and run for three months beforehand ... but they’re super sweet and never call attention to it. Javier’s is a classic. Any other restaurants you’d recommend? You’re going to hate me [laughs], but El Fenix, On the Border (on Knox Street)...basically Tex-Mex! Also Toulouse (also on Knox) and Rockfish (in Mockingbird Station). Do you have any advice for visitors about what to do and see or where to go in the city? Go get out and get around! Go to Greenville [Avenue] and listen to live music ... [or visit] Klyde Warren Park, the Dallas Museum of Art, White Rock Lake and Deep Ellum. How would you describe your own personal style, as well as the fashion/shopping scene here in Dallas? I am, on most days, in boots and a belt, but I soften it a little bit with cashmere or cotton ... It’s great to go to lunch at Neiman’s and watch them do their fashion shows. There’s some gorgeous fashion and great designers in Dallas that my mom knows about—RioRitz on Routh Street (the owner has great style; not horribly expensive but super cute), Asel Art Supply, E.G. Geller (shoes), NM Last Call, Northpark Center, the “last call” sales at Stanley Korshak and The Shak in Crescent Court. Mom is a fantastic shopper and always looks amazing. Are you working on any new or upcoming projects? I do the strangest thing: I work for six months and then I’m a full-time mom. Given that “The Purge” and “Dead of Summer” came out at the same time, I’m probably just going to be a mom now. It’s good to have balance. I’m always grateful for work but I try to live a full, wellrounded life, as honored as I am to have had the opportunity to do this kind of work at all. 11

Quench your thirst for fall fashion at these local Dallas boutiques, and expand your style repertoire with designers and pieces to keep your closet runway-ready. By Jehan Lazar

ABI FERRIN “Fashion with freedom and purpose” is the motto of Dallas clothing designer and West Village boutique owner Abi Ferrin, who creates pieces that are “made for you, not the hanger.” Ferrin’s fall collection consists of flowy silks and colorful chiffon that’ll dance in the breeze as well as fit and flatter all body types— while also adding a bohemian-chic touch to professional wear. However, this treasured West Village boutique is special to many Dallasites because of its mission and values: The Abi Ferrin team gives back to the community by supporting independent jewelry designers like Tribal Jewels, gem galleries such as iRocks and local artists, whose works can be found on rotation in the West Village flagship boutique. Ferrin also founded her own initiative called the Freedom Project, in which she partners with groups in Nepal, Cambodia and Peru to help give survivors of abuse, exploitation and discrimination a chance to have fulfilled lives personally and professionally by ensuring an

ethical supply chain with generous wages, programs and benefits. Similarly, Dallas-based Roma Boots donates a pair of rain boots for each pair purchased. Also available at Abi Ferrin, Roma is quickly becoming a worldwide name in sleek-yet-functional (and philanthropic) footwear. 3699 McKinney Ave., Ste. 103, 214.565.0055, www.abiferrin.com PLANET BARDOT Stroll along Knox-Henderson and look for the iron double doors of this newly remodeled Knox Street boutique. Worlds away from the typical Dallas style scene, Planet Bardot nails the balance between street chic and West Coast cool with its collection of apparel and accessories in sleek, modern cuts and clean designs that you won’t have to retire in a few months. Still, this Dallas favorite is filled with all the essentials needed for a stylish and versatile wardrobe this season, with pieces by Rag & Bone and Frame to the coolest Phillippe Model high top sneakers. The store’s neatly curated

racks, organized by color, size and aesthetic, allows patrons to shop looks that fit their own personal style—and perhaps discover new designers along the way. Look for men’s apparel to arrive at Planet Bardot this fall, adding more lust-worthy items to its already-

goods and eco-conscious gifts. The store is divided into vignettes that feel like your interior designer friend’s picture-perfect digs: There’s a succulent bar/terrarium gallery, a kitchenette with a bar with kombucha on tap, and a section of apparel and accessories featuring designs from Texas labels like BrooklynGrace, Wheron, Hari Mari, Moon River Naturals and more. Jade & Clover will debut its own collaborative clothing line later this year. 2635 Main St., www.jadeandclover.com MARKET This luxury lifestyle boutique is unlike any other store in Highland Park Village, offering an artfully curated selection of both timeless and trendy pieces under one (large) roof, from designers that range from the most established fashion houses to up-and-coming labels. Look out for chic prints in fall colors (as well as luxe scented candles) from Missoni, perfectly distressed and fitted styles from Baldwin Denim and a steady supply of luxeyet-laidback shirts and shirtdresses

When it comes to accessories, Hoorsenbuhs’ lavish collection of rose gold chains, cuffs and rings will keep your outfits locked and loaded this season with bold statement pieces, on-trend designs and quality craftsmanship. Shoppers can satisfy their appetite for one-of-a-kind fashion and accessories in addition to their sweet tooth, with a section of the store dedicated to California candy purveyor Sugarfina. While the label’s bestseller is easily its Champagne-infused gummy bears, shoppers can create customizable bento boxes that appeal to all budgets and tastes. Get these highly coveted candies—especially Sugarfina’s rosé-infused bears— before they sell out (and they will); because if there’s anything Dallas loves more than fashion and jewelry, it’s Champagne. 26B Highland Park Village, 214.945.2571, www.markethighlandpark.com V.O.D BOUTIQUE A worldwide favorite among cutting-edge fashionistas who aren’t afraid to experiment with new and European trends, V.O.D. Boutique is a nearly 10-year veteran of Dallas’ fashion elite anchored in the heart of Victory Park. At V.O.D., owners Jackie Bolin and Liz Thompson travel the globe in search of the most creative designers and innovative styles, delivering European sophistication straight into shoppers’ French manicured fingertips—and a breath of fresh air as they redefine the meaning of cool. This season, label R13 takes the gold medal at V.O.D. on Victory Avenue with upgrades to the beloved flannel button-up, made with Japanese cotton to add warmth as well as structure. Regardless of what the weather is like, a black Isabel Marant Étoile lambskin leather motorcycle jacket is essential: Delicate, feminine and effortlessly chic, you won’t want to go anywhere this season without it. 2418 Victory Park Lane, 214.754.0644, www.vodboutique.com

NEW & NOTEWORTHY

Fashion for a Cause

While new boutique Jade & Clover certainly has its finger on the pulse of what’s trendy (“This season’s all about velvet, bell sleeves, dusty pinks and bold prints,” says owner/founder Giselle Ruggeberg), the progressive retailer’s first priority is supporting local creative efforts, indie labels and brands that give back. “I really wanted to create something that would bring everybody together,” Ruggeberg says. From MiiR hydration products that fund anti-poverty/clean water initiatives to sandals by Texas’ own philanthropic flip-flop company Hari Mari, Jade & Clover shoppers can expect to find items that will have them looking good and feeling even better.

GREAT X-PECTATIONS Now in its third year, Fashion X Dallas (Sept. 8-10)—the premier fall event for the DFW style scene—allows patrons to discover North Texas’ most promising designers, and shows spectators not only which trends are on tap for fall, but where one can find said trends locally. “I’ve been seeing velvets, bohemian silhouettes, plaids and suiting in unexpected ways and streetwear reminiscent of the ‘90s, including sweats and hoodies,” says Fashion X Founder Matt Swinney, who gave us the scoop on Texas’ rising stars in fashion. “The ones I’m really interested in are the designers where we’ve only seen one or two previous collections ... Clan of Cro, Tinsley Radix, and Ferrah come to mind,” Swinney said, as well as DFW designers Gustavia and Lizna, whose first full collections will debut on the Fashion X Runway. As always, Dallas-based Binzario is expected to send out some showstopping couture gowns and Abi Ferrin, who Swinney says “is just a master at making flattering clothing for every woman,” will also present her fall collection.

Annual attractions include carnival rides and games at the Midway, parades, concerts, cultural performances, livestock shows, a petting zoo, football games and more. Of course, one’s State Fair experience isn’t complete without three things: a‘Howdy’ from State Fair spokesperson Big Tex (and a picture to prove it!); a ride on the iconic Texas Star Ferris wheel; and a Fletcher’s corny dog, a Dallas original credited as the first purveyor of the classic carnival snack. (Pro tip: Purchase food, drink and ride tickets online or upon arrival to avoid lines or multiple trips to ticket vendors.)

Red River Showdown The legendary Texas vs. OU matchup returns to the Cotton Bowl on Oct. 8, when Oklahoma Sooners and Texas Longhorns fans will once again cover the city (and TX vs.OU the fairgrounds) in a sea of burnt orange and burgundy. In addition to the annual Red River Rivalry, the Cotton Bowl also welcomes the Southwest Airlines State Fair Classic on Oct. 1 and the Air Force Academy vs. University of New Mexico on Oct. 15.

Deep-Fried Fun If everything really is bigger in Texas, then the endless array of fried food options during the State Fair should come as no surprise. Carnival faves like caramel apples and funnel cakes are available everywhere, but locals will go straight for the award-winning eats from the annual fried food contest (two winners take home the bragging rights for either “Best Taste” or “Most Creative”). Culinary enthusiasts can enjoy cooking demos by local chefs, as well as the Magnolia Beer Garden and State Fair Wine Garden showcasing dozens of Texas wineries. This year, two new treeshaded dining destinations will delight fair-going foodies: “Bitesand-flights” concept Trio on the Green and Fiesta Grande, which features a cantina-style patio.

Live music performances (75, to be exact) take place daily during the fair, all of which are included with general admission ($18 for adults, $14 for kids under 48”). This year’s lineup on the Chevrolet Main Stage includes a diverse range of artists and genres, with country star Kacey Musgraves kicking off the concert series Sept. 30 at 8:30 pm. Notable acts include Dallas’ own up-and-coming Southern rock/country/blues band Prophets and Outlaws on Oct. 7 (at 5:30 and 8:30 pm), Hill Country-based blues/soul/funk fusion duo The Peterson Brothers on Oct. 14, and two-time Grammy Award-winning rapper Nelly on Oct. 15. Keep your eyes (and ears) peeled for three other live music stages situated throughout the fairgrounds.

Chevrolet Main Stage

New Attractions in 2016 Corresponding with this year’s State Fair theme, “Celebrating Texas Agriculture,” are several new attractions that honor Texas’ Western culture and heritage. At exhibits ”Ways of the West” and ”Vaquero: Genesis of the Texas Cowboy,” guests can get a taste of early American ranch life, or watch the sharpshooters, bandits and cattle drives at the Lone Star Stampede arena performance. Little ones can get in on the agricultural action during educational yet entertaining activities like Farm Day at the Fair or the “I Spy Texas”science exhibit, as well as annual traditions like daily cow milking demonstrations, guided livestock tours and more. The most anticipated new exhibit, however, seems to be ”The Taylor Swift Experience,” which features tour memorabilia, instruments and notable wardrobe pieces from awards Lone Star Stampede ceremonies and music videos.
