ONLY IN L.A.

by Ryma Chikhoune

The night after the Met Gala took over Manhattan, a gala of another kind was taking place in Los Angeles. “A s.e.x. soirée,” noted the invite. “Sensuous seated dinner with Expert adult presentation and Xtraordinary desserts with toys.” Honey, we’re not at the Metropolitan Museum of Art anymore.The fete, hosted by Christine Chiu, wife of Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Gabriel Chiu, brought out not Hadids or Jenners (Though Kris Jenner was slated to attend at one point), but the rich housewives of Hollywood: Hope Dworaczyk Smith, wife of billionaire and Vista Equity Partners founder Robert F. Smith; TV personality Brooke Burke; Sydney Holland, former girlfriend of media mogul Sumner M. Redstone; Sarah Magness, wife of billionaire businessman Gary Magness; Julia Sorkin, former wife of screenwriter Aaron Sorkin; Irena Medavoy, wife of producer and executive Mike Medavoy; Sutton Stracke, wife of director Christian Stracke; Sylvia Chivaratanond, co-curator with husband and L.A.’s Museum of Contemporary Art director Philippe Vergne; and Lysa Heslov, wife of producer, screenwriter, director and frequent George Clooney collaborator Grant Heslov. Here, a look inside the scandalous night out.
