Ahead of Cars on Fifth, The House of Turk & Turk and the Escalante Hotel present A Haute Night—an invitation-only evening where haute couture, luxury automobiles, and design converge in an intimate, pop-up setting. Infused with cultural energy, the event blends fashion exhibition, curated automotive showcases, and a chef-driven dining experience at Veranda E.
The House of Turk & Turk, the luxury fashion atelier celebrated for its European-inspired haute couture, in collaboration with the Escalante Hotel, will host A Haute Night | Meet Us at the Starting Line. This premier event includes a reception, fashion exhibition, and dining experience on Wednesday, February 4, 2026—an avant-garde prelude to Naples’ iconic Cars on Fifth.
Set within the lush, secluded grounds of the Escalante Hotel, the evening begins with a curated reception in the rotunda, where haute couture meets haute cars. Guests will enjoy passed hors d’oeuvres and signature beverages while exploring a refined exhibition of fashion and automotive excellence.
The exhibition features exceptional automobiles presented in partnership with the Everglades Region Porsche Club of America, Porsche Naples, and renowned race car driver Kevin Buckler, founder of Adobe Road Wines. Live models will debut the newest creations from The House of Turk & Turk, the Supercar Collection, adorned with finery from Provident Jewelry. The installation also includes limited-edition, framed silk designs and hand-beaded bags that blur the lines between fashion, motion, and design. “By bringing fashion and automotive design together, we’re creating something unexpected—a portfolio of collectible pieces for automotive aficionados,” said Rasit & Ilkay Turk, co-founders of Turk & Turk.
As the evening unfolds, guests transition to Veranda E, the Escalante’s acclaimed restaurant, for an al fresco, five-course haute cuisine dining experience. Select wines from The Racing Series at Adobe Road Wines are paired with each course, and the evening concludes with a custom dessert inspired by the spirit of the evening. “At the Escalante, we believe the most memorable experiences are intimate, intentional, and beautifully unexpected. A Haute Night reflects our passion for curating moments where design, cuisine, and culture come together in a way that feels personal, rare, and unforgettable,” said Mary Brandt, resort owner of the Escalante, and restaurateur of the Veranda E in Old Naples.
A Haute Night serves as a sophisticated prelude to Cars on Fifth, underscoring Naples’ growing reputation as a destination for culture-driven, design-forward, experiential luxury.
