The city skyline-themed soirée’s glamorous crowd included Anok Yai, Jodie Turner-Smith, Ashlee Simpson, James Turlington, Taylor Hill, Alton Mason, Pom Klementieff,  Mark Ronson, Evan Ross, Jennifer Goicoechea, Valentina Ferrer, Nigel Sylvester, Deacon Phillipe, Grace Gummer, Ryan Destiny, Ollie Muhl, Antwaun Sargent, Karrueche Tran, Meredith Duxbury, SAINt JHN, Marc Forne, Delaney Rowe, Jesse Metcalfe, Baptiste Giabiconi, Noah Mills, Kiel Tutin, Chris Appleton, Lukas Gage, TIWE, Mary Beth Barone, Lulu Tenney, and Mara Brock Akil.
