Another epic New York Fashion Week has come and gone this September. Whether it was Madonna at Luar, her son David making his runway debut for Off-White, Paloma taking us to a Cathedral or Alaïa getting Rihanna to The Guggenheim, the real memories were made at the post-show parties.

 

The Club Room kicked things off with a performance by house music icon, Crystal Waters. She sang and danced her way thru legendary hits without missing a beat from when she first hit the scene in the early 90’s. The way she brings generations of dance music fans together is utterly unmatched and the flare of her personal style will never go out of fashion.

 

Elena Velez rocked The Club Room with a dual birthday/post-show party dubbed, Dirty Thirty. Still on a high from her largest showcase to date, entitled “La Pucelle,” Elena partied with the likes of LaQuan Smith, Nikita Dragun and The Dupont Twins after presenting another dynamic, disruptive collection.
