Far below the depths of Lafayette Street, Swarovski pulled together a select group of jewelry lovers to toast Delphine-Charlotte Parmentier’s 20th year of bauble design. Set in the Cave du Vin, located below the Lafayette resto, an intimate dinner started off with the ultimate cocktail accessory: tons and tons of sparkling jewels.

While they haven’t mapped out their course of world domination just yet, the Joe Fresh team, lead by their fearless leader Joe Mimran, has successfully expanded into six shops in the states. The most recent of which celebrated its grand opening last night, welcoming revelers into a wonderfully lacquered white and orange Soho boutique. The official welcoming committee included Tennessee Thomas, Kyleigh Kuhn and Ysa Perez, but Natalie Joos, Mickey Boardman and the brand’s COO Mario Grauso were on hand to partake in the fun and do some shopping, too!

Fans of Scottish cashmere brand Todd & Duncan have reason to celebrate. The beloved brand has opened doors to their first boutique in Soho and celebrated with a party last night to premiere their RTW collection for Fall. Natalie Joos and Kelly Rutherford hosted the evening that brought out Alan Cumming, Lance Bass, Douglas Friedman, Stacey Kimmel, Donal Brophy, and Lorenzo Martone for jams by Brie Welch

In keeping with their Spring 2014 theme of water and aquatic life, Carol Lim and Humberto Leon celebrated their work with a bash at the Aquarium du Paris. Guests descended a staircase as images of sea life floated across a big screen that hung from the wall. But the best views were in the rooms where sharks swam above guests’ heads in giant aquariums. Instagram heaven much?


Jimmy Choo have announced Russian Tatler’s fashion director and style icon Anya Ziourova as their Autumn/Winter Stylemaker on their interactive microsite, www.Choo247.com. They’ve created a video chronicling seven days of Ziourova’s style (prepare for some major closet envy) shot against the dramatic backdrop of Moscow. It’s the seventh season the brand has featured Stylemakers on their website, with Natalie Joos in Antwerp, and Viviana Volpicella in London as part of the Stylemaker alumni club. Next up: Los Angeles.

Devoted Diane Von Furstenberg fangirls gathered in the DvF Accessories store in the meatpacking district for a night of fun music and cocktails. The party celebrated the relaunch of Natalie Joos’ blog, Tales of Endearment, in addition to the incipient 40th anniversary of DvF’s line.

Belgian-born casting agent and fashion consultant Natalie Joos recently got an up close and (very) personal look into Diane von Furstenberg’s sprawling Connecticut estate, which was featured on Joos’ popular blog, Tales of Endearment. How personal? Joos got a first-ever look at the designer’s own personal archive wardrobe…

If you’re looking to throw the illest industry party on the block, we have one piece of advice: invite FRANK! The ultra-underground, quarterly glossy hijacked the Bowery Hotel last night to fete their much-buzzed about 51st issue, themed “Leaders”. No doubt, there’s more than one fashion ed nursing a next day hangover…but we digress.
