“I feel like a different person,” said an almost unrecognizable bleached blonde Raquel Zimmermann last night. The model was taking in the impressive views from the Cooper Square Hotel’s glass-walled Penthouse at DNA’s pre-Met cocktail party alongside Lapo Elkann, Natalia Vodianova, Justin Portman, George Cortina, and a bevy of the agency’s beauties, many of whom were staying at the new boutique hotel. (We also spied Nadja Auermann and Amber Valletta having a tête-à-êtete on a lower floor.) Zimmermann will accompany Proenza Schouler’s Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough to the gala wearing their design; Edita V. told us she’s planning on Chanel; and Magdalena Frackowiak will wear Tom Binns jewelry and a dress that was literally sewn on her body by Thakoon Panichgul. “All the Vogue girls” had a shoot for the magazine on Sunday, said Zimmermann, “and all we could talk about was what we’re wearing, how we’ll wear our hair, and what time to arrive.” Drop-dead looks, it seems, don’t make you immune to Met ball fever.
