It would be ill advised to attend New York Fashion Week’s debauched Purple magazine party when you’re meant to be at the office at 10 a.m. the following morning. Against all my better judgment, that’s precisely what I did. This season, editor Olivier Zahm held his bash at André Saraiva’s Chez André in the basement of The Standard East Village. Save for a harrowing 5 minutes in which the sound cut out, it was yet another delightful champagne-doused evening for Zahm and his cronies.
The party welcomed all the usual suspects – Saraiva, Waris Ahluwalia, Johan Lindeberg, Sandy Kim – and a couple unexpected cameos from the likes of Stephen Dorff, Orlando Bloom, and ATL Twins of Spring Breakers fame.
My hangover is inhibiting me from stringing together any more intelligent words. Sufficient to say, it was super fun and today I feel like garbage. Check out all the pictures on Purple Diary.
Did Max Snow, who I saw was there as well on the Paper site, go all clean cut for his wedding or the new Esquire issue or what? I remember when he looked like his late big bro Dash but with ginger hair.
