emPurple/em People
pMany have claimed that Soho House has lost some of its panache. (We’ve heard more than one chicster refer to it as So-so House.) Well, here’s an update. On Sunday night, the private club played host to not one, but two fashion week soireacute;ses: emPurple/em magazine’s Audemars Piguet-sponsored bash (in the sixth-floor dining room) and a Mulberry dinner (in the fifth-floor library). “I was in the elevator with a bunch of people and they were telling a fabulous story,” sighed Hilary Alexander. “And so I followed them into the wrong party.” Mistake corrected, Alexander found herself face-to-face with a motley crew of emPurple/em fans that included a href=”javascript:openSlideshow(’/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-021609_Purple_Mag_Soho_House/?iphoto=17′)”strongMilla Jovovich/strong/a, Rosetta Getty, and a href=”javascript:openSlideshow(’/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-021609_Purple_Mag_Soho_House/?iphoto=3′)”strongPatricia Arquette/strong/a in one corner; Leelee Sobieski, a href=”javascript:openSlideshow(’/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-021609_Purple_Mag_Soho_House/?iphoto=13′)”strongArden Wohl/strong/a, and Adam Kimmel in another; and Dan Colen, Terence Koh, and Terry Richardson in the back. Mincing among them all was Olivier Zahm, who said he was happy that so many people had turned out for his fecirc;te. Not that he should have been surprised, said more than one reveler. “Sometimes people forget that these parties should be fun,” said re-emerging catwalker Tasha Tilberg. “But not here.” Then, pointing to the menu card, which was printed on the back of a full-frontal nude picture taken by Zahm, she added, “I think everyone knows that a emPurple/em party will be a fun one.”/pbr/#8212;Derek Blasbergdiv class=”feedflare” a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=rihcJu0J”img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?d=41″ border=”0″/img/a a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=bLbJLKw1″img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?i=bLbJLKw1″ border=”0″/img/a a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=COKCjXA7″img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?d=52″ border=”0″/img/a a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=tCRXwrZy”img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?i=tCRXwrZy” border=”0″/img/a /divimg src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~r/fashion_features/~4/5kHzynNZ_kc” height=”1″ width=”1″/

French Dressing

French Dressing
pBy Sunday night, word had spread that Club Sandwichmdash;the party at the tippy top of the Paris fashion scene for the past few yearsmdash;would be the evening’s late-night revelry destination. And sure enough, all sorts of people, fashion veterans and otherwise, turned up en masse at Norwood. “I mean, a href=”javascript:openSlideshow(’/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-021609_Club_Sandwich/?iphoto=4′)”strongAlexander Wang/strong/a can’t even get in,” one peeved patron stammered outside. (After a few minutes of waiting, the designer waded through the mosh pit and into the party.) For those lucky enough to gain entry, the next move was to decide which floor was the least crowded (and had the shortest bathroom line). “Everyone just migrated to the top,” a href=”javascript:openSlideshow(’/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-021609_Club_Sandwich/?iphoto=5′)”strongLara Stone/strong/a explained. “So I’m heading down. People are losing their minds in here.” While that may have been true, it seemed as though most of them had devoted quite a lot of brain power to their ensembles. From topless men in ski masks to carousers in full body stockings, the outfits were pumping. How to decipher the looks? As emThe New York Times/em’ a href=”javascript:openSlideshow(’/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-021609_Club_Sandwich/?iphoto=11′)”strongStefano Tonchi/strong/a suggested, perhaps everyone had recently seen the movie emMilk/em and taken the costume design very seriously./pbr/#8212;Derek Blasbergdiv class=”feedflare” a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=ItkUKLUK”img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?d=41″ border=”0″/img/a a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=tPYmNO7k”img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?i=tPYmNO7k” border=”0″/img/a a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=D9zSocy8″img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?d=52″ border=”0″/img/a a href=”http://feeds.style.com/~f/fashion_features?a=E2sw8ckp”img src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~f/fashion_features?i=E2sw8ckp” border=”0″/img/a /divimg src=”http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~r/fashion_features/~4/spUzcG2qcbQ” height=”1″ width=”1″/
