Walking into the party, there was a vibrant aura of creative genius, young attitude, and fresh perspective. Girls donned glitter and sequins, red lipstick, and menswear, guys were sporting fedoras, cool sneakers, and fantastic t-shirts—everyone at Good Units looked fiercely fashionable and inspiringly individual.

The surrounding walls of the venue were beautified by the mesmerizing photography of Fashion For Passion founder, Nicholas Routzen. The photos were presented on large starch white canvasses, incorporating shades of gray and black. These carefully crafted works of art highlighted the distinct emotion of the models who conveyed a point-of-view both in their clothing, and in their expressions.

A Night of Grace In The City

Last night was amazing night in NYC as I marched uptown to Bergdorf Goodman to socialize with Linda Fargo, Leigh Lezark, Daphne Guinness and more.

The event was to celebrate Steven Klein: 30 Seasons With Akris. The label's designer, Albert Kriemler, was also in attendance. Besides the amazing and devastatingly handsome catering and bar staff, the fourth floor was filled with delightful Akris-clad mannequins and images of Akris clothing throughout the years.
