NYFW: DL1961 Spring/Summer 2013 Runway Show

-PC Fashion Corespondent, Tiffany Piñero of Tiffany Piñero Style

Making their New York Fashion Week debut, denim line DL1961 held their first runways show this season at Pier 57 on Manhattan’s westside. The space was filled with the aroma of cotton candy and piles of the young, fabulous types. A few noteable names on hand were DJ Mia Moretti and electric violinist Caitlin Moe who entertained the crowd post show, along with singer, songwriter Neon Hitch and Kristin Chenoweth.

The show started out with a show in itself as the first model made her way down I thought, that is some kind of runway walk? Only to realize, she was one of a dozen professional ballerinas sashaying in white denim to the raging pipes of Florence and the Machine. Following the mini performance came the Spring 2013 collection which had styling contributions from Nylon’s Editor-at-large Dani Stahl. There was a distinct edge in the looks countered with ease by messy side braids and sunkissed faces. A pair of red leather pants with interesting topstiching and slim denim with rose gold hardware were the must-have highlights for the ladies. As for the gentlemen it was all about fit and signature washes, keeping looks clean with v neck tops and breezy cardigans.

A Beautiful Weekend for the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic

Corks off to Veuve Clicquot for hosting an exceptional weekend of beautiful people, glamorous hats, exceptional champagne and of course polo.

Friday night, VC president, Jean-Marc Lacave and VC US president, Vanessa Kay hosted a kick-off party to celebrate the 5th Annual Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic on top of The Standard Hotel at Le Bain. I celebrated with a few friends, toasting the night away; getting lost in the live band and playing with the exceptional array of Veuve Clicquot merchandise floating around the room (I somehow ended up with a VC hat, cigars, a fan and sunglasses!). The event all-star, polo extraordinaire, Nacho Figueras was casually walking the room, taking pictures and looking as virile in person as he does in his Ralph Lauren ads.

{Cheers to fabulous friends, and especially Christine for making all of this possible!}

Then Saturday came, THE BIG DAY — the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic. My group packed a picnic and headed downtown to catch the ferry to Liberty State Park where the festivities were taking place. What a dapper audience getting on board the boat, sporting an exceptional array of hats. I could written a blog post alone on the variety of exceptionally unique chapeau’s I spotted.

{I am a sucker for photobooths!}

{Only thing better then a wonderful day in the park… wonderful friends to enjoy it with}

{Cheers to the ladies and are unsmoked VC cigars}

{VC hired a steller ragtime band to add to the experience}

{For anyone watching the match… all eyes we’re on Nacho}

{How could I resist not part taking in the ceremonial filling of the divots?! STOMP, STOMP, STOMP!}

{VIP Section… I spy Padma Lakshmi}

After lounging on the grass we headed to the VIP section where the champagne was pouring and strawberries we’re being passed out, while a decadent buffet was on display for guests to enjoy. After 4 hours of sun and champagne, the Nespresso bar was literally saving my life and keeping me awake. All that was missing was a charging station — my phone died! Which was fine since it was great to just be present for such a wonderful event, without fighting the urge to instagram and tweet everything in site (as I did the 3 hours prior). Notable guests in the room included Clive Owen, Rachel Zoe, Leslie Bibb, Padma Lakshmi, Zoe Saldana, Jason Wu, Tiffani Thiessen, Dree Hemingway, Poppy Minka Kelly, Hilary Rhoda, Alek Wek, Coco Rocha, Jessica Stam, Olivia Palermo, Poppy Delevigne, DJ Mia Moretti and Caitlin Moe. I had to cut the day a little short as I had a flight to catch to LA, otherwise, I wanted the day to never end!

Thank you Veuve Clicquot for a lovely weekend!

Bloomingdale’s celebrates Hugo Boss with Artists, Jeff Koons, Mia Moretti & Caitlin Moe

Check out my Jeff Koons original!

Last night, was a big day for Hugo Boss (and me)! As some of you saw the invite (I posted earlier this week), Sunham Home Fashions was celebrating the launch of the new BOSS Home bedding collection at Bloomingdale’s. Hosted on the 7th floor, guests had the opportunity to shop the collection and enjoy a musical performances by Mia Moretti & Caitlin Moe. I’ve seen those girls do their violin/DJ set probably 15 times in the past year and it never gets old! BOSS Home will be exclusive to Bloomingdale’s for the next 3 months, so go check them out!

I stopped by with Lorna from The Fabulous Report and we met up with the super fun Fashion Indie team to check out the collection; then headed down to the 3rd floor, where Hugo Boss continued the party with the launch of the new BOSS Black women’s shop. If upstairs was all about the jams, downstairs was all about art, with a special appearance by renowned artist, Jeff Koons! Apparently Koons is a big fan of the brand and to mark the new opening, he designed a limited edition shopping bag for Hugo Boss. And guess what? Jeff Koons drew me an original drawing (in front of me) on the bag! It was kind of the best ever!

Jeff Koons drawing me a pic!

I’m freaking out that I have a Jeff Koon’s original, complete with my name on it and his autograph! This bag is totally getting framed. Side note: Samantha, Editor-In-Chic of FashionIndie had this awesome Samsung Galaxy Note phone and was able to pimp out photo with comments after she took the shot (as seen above with her fancy penmanship)! Wish my iPhone could do that.

I caught a sneak peek of the home collection at the brand’s launch party which was hosted at the Hugo Boss showroom. And between the clothing on the manikins and the bed display, I could live a very happy life residing in that showroom. Mia Moretti and Caitlin Moe performed their DJ/Violin ensemble. And how could I resist the photo booth?

Refinery29’s Summer Jam Series

On July 6th, the cleverly hip and ever so stylish fashion and beauty website, Refinery29.com kicked off their Summer Jam series at the W Downtown Hotel.

Party at the W!

While I’m not generally one to be spotted in the financial district –uh pretty much ever –okay maybe a few times a year –I make an exception for friends that are tourists and that live in the area and now Refinery29!

I grabbed a group and hit the terrace. The inside was overly happening as guests flocked to the bar. As I maneuvered my way through the crowd to grab a drink, it was a reunion and half. I ran into old friends, new friends, old coworkers (I really must be on my 10th anniversary in NY).

Great DJ’s (Caitlin Moe and Mia Moretti was spinning!), good drinks, fun crowd, amazing friends, nice breeze… What more could you ask for?

The party continues July 19th through August 30th. Get in on it!
