We met up with our friends at NYLON last night to celebrate their new Music issue, on stands now. The dinner and afterparty hosted by Editor-in-chief Marvin Scott Jarrett and the inimitable Florence Welch took place in the Mondrian Soho Hotel. We started with dinner in the beautiful penthouse, which ended up being delayed over an hour after fireworks unexpectedly went off over the Manhattan bridge, but the views of the city were well worth the wait.
Though we arrived a little late, the afterparty downstairs at Mister H was still in full swing. Guests like Leigh LeZark from the Misshapes and Harley Newton were treated to beats by DJ Josh Madden. We also spotted Portia de Rossi, Shenae Grimes of 90210, and “Twilight” alum Kellan Lutz, who is now the face of the Dylan George men’s line. Was he spying on us?
Florence faced the cameras in an Anna Sui floral print dress, paired with a black fedora, ankle strap pumps, and a Chanel Mademoiselle bag (don’t tell Gucci!) . She continues on tour with Florence + The Machine through the summer and will also open for U2 on select dates. If you are in New York, you can catch them playing Central Park this Friday.
We are always excited for the newest issue of NYLON. The editors are known for having their own take on the fashion of the moment, presented by some of edgiest makeup artists, stylists, and photographers out there. It’s so fun to see a known talent in a new light or discover an underground artist just before they break.
Last night we co-hosted a private dinner with NYLON to celebrate their latest issue with cover girl Kate Bosworth, at Hemingway’s Lounge in Hollywood. In a town known for its clubs, Hemingway’s is a real bar. With classic décor like velvet furniture, a marble bar, and walls of books, arranged and proportioned in a contemporary fashion. It feels like a bit of New York City was somehow transplanted to the heart of Hollywood Boulevard.
Guests included NYLON editor-in-chief Marvin Scott Jarrett and publisher Jaclynn Jarrett, the HABITUAL team, Kate Bosworth and fellow actresses Amber Lancaster, Ashley Hinshaw, and Daveigh Chase, and stylist Cher Coulter. Alexander Skarsgard and Entourage’s Rhys Coiro also came by to enjoy a couple of drinks.
DJ Lindsay Luv in the HABITUAL Audrey Legging
DJ Lindsay Love looked amazing in the Audrey Legging in python, and she really set the tone for the whole event with her low key but upbeat selection of indie pop. You can download or listen to part of the set, which included tracks from Robyn, The Gossip, The Raveonettes, and Muse, on her Soundcloud page.
