Party People
The Bryant Park Hotel's cavernous Cellar Bar, known for its leather-corseted waitresses and location directly across the street from the tents, bumps during Fashion Week. Last night the unntz, unntz, unntzing and double-kissing continued with Tibi's after-party hosted by WWD.
Tibi designer Amy Smilovic and PR Coordinator Liz Walker (right with yours truly) deftly navigated (it's incredibly dark down there!) their way around the VIP banquettes which brimmed with fashion week fixtures like Chessy Wilson (just back from a trip to Palm Springs),Nicole Hanley, Laura Remington Platt, Gillian Hearst Simmonds, Minnie Mortimer (left with Nicole Hanley, Ben Fink Shapiro and Paul John Calderon), and Lipstick Jungle's Levin Rambin, enjoying Belvedere Vodka bottle service and delicious fancifully frosted cupcakes (from Sarah Magid, accessories editor-turned-organic baker).
The party wound down around midnight at which point the crowd fanned out downtown: Both the Rose Bar (where else can you find Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart snuggling under a Schnabel?) and Beatrice Inn were more than happy to accommodate a select few of the after-after-party revelers. Mansion opens Saturday, I imagine it will be equally selectively accommodating.
