Blasblog: Celebrating New York In Paris…I Think
There are at least two things I can count on in Paris: various fellow New Yorkers letting loose for fashion month’s last leg, and a late-night dance party at Regine’s. For the past few seasons, I’ve helped friends like Paul Sevigny, MisShapes Leigh Lezark and Geordon Nicol, and Tommy Saleh organize a little fête, appropriately [...]
The Lost Boys
Big-wave surfer Danny Fuller swapped water for concrete last night as he flew into New York for the opening of his exhibit The Lost World, a series of photos from his travels with a seductive, abstract quality that quietly underscores his concern for the planet’s dwindling resources.

Blasblog: Beatrice, Good And Empty. Huh?

Next week, the budding curator makes his debut on the New York art scene with a group photo show at the gallery Collective Hardware. Comprising work by three of Restoin-Roitfeld’s friends—PC Valmorbida, Salim Langatta, [...]
Indochine: Hot For The Holidays?
Sure, Indochine’s sultry lighting, tropical decor, and impossibly attractive staff had its heyday in the eighties, but there’s clearly still some allure left in the old girl. Spotted dining there last night, at separate tables: Interview editorial director Fabien Baron with Paris Vogue stylist Ludivine Poiblanc; Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld celebrating his birthday with a big group [...]
