Art and Commerce
It seems there's no rest for the weary in this town. It's only two days after the Costume Institute Ball, and Manhattan's social swans are already back on the scene.
Ferragamo got things rolling Wednesday night with a cocktail at their Fifth Avenue flagship store to celebrate "Renaissance," their newest installation of contemporary art, curated by Blair Clarke. It certainly felt like spring on the store's second floor, what with trays of pink cocktails cruising by and party patrons dressed in flirty brights. Lake Bell and Eva Amurri (left with Diane Kruger), the evening's hosts, pranced about perusing the art and chatting up their guests. Both looked ravishing in Ferragamo numbers - Bell in a beige off the shoulder sheath and Amurri in a coral blouse dress. Amongst the glitterati in attendance were Diane Kruger, showing some leg (reminiscent of her Met dress) in a short, ruffly Ferragamo frock while Lauren Remington Platt paired a tank with a twirly sequined skirt. DJ Paul Sevigny spun tracks until the very last margaritas were consumed, sending guests off into the warm spring night in search of more merrymaking.
