July 16, 2008 1:49 pm
With one year left in her twenties, Ferebee Bishop Taube decided the best place to celebrate her birthday would be the Great Jones Cafe (which one guest labeled the “best place for comfort food when you’re experiencing the world’s worst hangover”). Joining her last night were friends Olivia Chantecaille, Maggie Betts, Barbara Bush, and Eleanor Ylvisaker, as well as a couple of the designers (Alexander Wang and Elise Øverland) the PR maven works with. A highlight was the attendance of the handsome husbands of Taube’s fancy girlfriends, most of whom claim late meetings or last-minute projects when she invites them to what they tend to refer to as “those retail parties” (read: store parties and fashion events). Perhaps they had the right idea, as it did get a little sticky when the same-sex-oriented (the male sex, that is) fashion types tried their best pickup lines on the better halves: “Shall we go to the john, John?” and “I’ll swim in your brook, Brooke.” All was forgiven when the ribs came out, however—we even spotted some girls who look like they haven’t had so much as an M&M this entire week chowing down on the pork products.
