eve of destruction: the royal monceau’s demolition party

Next year Philippe Starck plans to rock the establishment with a new take on “sexy, intelligent” luxury at Paris’ Royal Monceau palace hotel. But before rebirth comes destruction, and so last night Starck joined the hotel’s owner, Alexandre Allard, in hosting a Demolition Party at which a rumored 3,000 revelers were encouraged to help banish the old. Artsy hipsters, models in glittery costumes, and a Marie Antoinette look-alike mingled with guests in evening dress as they milled through 20 rooms specially commissioned from contemporary artists who decked out the empty spaces in spray paint, neon lights, bubble machines, hologram videos, and a bathtub equipped with a churning motorboat engine. It didn’t take long for door numbers to start vanishing and the echoes of shattered glass to resonate in the courtyard. Dominique Isserman and Charlotte Rampling took refuge in the VIP lounge, while guests such as Vanessa Bruno circulated enthusiastically. “Throwing aparty like this is brilliant,” commented Bruno. “Paris needed a shot of excitement.”
