Who Attends A Party For A Condo?

Joshua Stein · 06/27/07 12:40PM

Last night, photographer Mark Seliger nominally "hosted" a "gallery opening" at the new gimmicky Shvo condo in Chelsea, which heinously refers to itself as White Space: A Global Address. There's a gallery in the lobby, or rather the lobby is a gallery. Last night that lobby-gallery (lobbery?) was rather full with socialites and rich men. Derek Blasberg showed up in blue seersucker pants. BFF's Genevieve Jones and Bonnie Morrison both made v. brief appearances. Justine D was deejaying (the Misshapes really started a trend when they deejayed the Starck Yoo building opening.) Probs everyone thought "white space" was code for coke. Nikola Tamindzic was there to capture the confusion.

Though they wanted lotsa jewels and stuff, backyards with swimming pools, bar with stools, fancy foods, lobster, sushi, gear, Versace, Gucci, crazy Lucci, the ladies who gathered atop Gramercy Park Hotel's rooftop garden last night to celebrate Men.Style.com's list of Hottest 25 Women of Fashion instead had to make do with free cocktails, Parliaments and little caviar blinis. We sent the sweet Nikola Tamindzic.

"As documents of sheer snotty bitchery go, it belongs in a hall of fame alongside... umm... Socrates'rebuke of Alcibiades in the Symposium," we said the other day of KCD publicist Bonnie Morrison's email to Coutorture blogger Julie Fredrickson, who'd complained that her inability to purchase a ticket to Monday's CFDA gala constituted a "pay for play" scenario. But was Bonnie actually being a bitch? Also, do we actually know what our own classical allusions mean? According to Fashionista's Faran Krentcil, the answer to at least one of these questions is a resounding "no."

Fashion Blogger Gets Dressed Down By CFDA Publicist

Emily Gould · 06/07/07 03:39PM

Julie Fredrickson, the young lady who founded the fashion blog Coutorture after learning via a Glamour internship that fashion ladies are bitches, has discovered another hard truth about that world: Sometimes, it's a tough place to be the new kid on the block. In a post today, she takes issue with the fact that reporters from large, deep-pocketed news organizations paid for their tickets to the Council of Fashion Designers of America awards ceremony on Monday—even though they would've been comped anyway—while bloggers like herself, who 'couldn't afford' to buy a ticket, were shut out. It's not fair! What is interesting, though, is the email explaining the situation that Julie received from publicist Bonnie Morrison (pictured). As documents of sheer snotty bitchery go, it belongs in a hall of fame alongside... umm... Socrates'rebuke of Alcibiades in the Symposium!
