Just so we’re clear: Opening Ceremony’s L.A. outpost threw a party this weekend…for its parking lot. “It’s important to acknowledge these things,” said filmmaker and OC fan Spike Jonze. “If a friend of yours gets a parking lot, that’s pretty cool.”There you have it. (Expect copycat parking lot parties to start springing up any second [...]

Marchesa co-founder Georgina Chapman told me last night that she’s always had a thing for sparkles and feathers—and indeed, a brief look back at her red-carpet-monopolizing label proves that she’s not kidding. Last night in Soho, she took the sparkle and feather fetish to new heights, debuting a new, avian-inspired jewelry collection with the London-based [...]

But yesterday’s crowds for Matthew Williamson in London marked a new low, or high, depending on the perspective. The mob was particularly single-minded, grabbing at things indeterminately as they turned the place into a retail mosh pit. [...]

With their weekly DJ residency at Lit—not to mention gigs at Dior and Visionaire parties—turntable artists Cassie Coane and Harley Viera Newton have quickly become staples of the downtown scene. So it’s only fitting that when the two of them celebrated their 21st birthdays on Tuesday night (yes, the friends were born on the same [...]
