Elisabeth von Thurn Und Taxis rocked a mohawk and a Vivienne Westwood dress. As far as going punk goes, she won. She looked like the kind of girl who could knife you in an alley, and then take you for an Upper East Side brunch—the perfect balance for this Ball.

Fabiola Beracasa with new friends (her Jar earrings) and old. Note: she did buy the statue two drinks first!

The mother of all makeup artists, Pat McGrath, and me.

Elisabeth von Thurn Und Taxis popping some bubble gum with Olympia Scarry. Yes, that is the world’s best photo bomb by Pucci’s Peter Dundas.

6

Hamish Bowles, rocking everything I wasn’t bold enough to from the nail to the pins! Oh! Who? Me?

Wes Gordon and Constance Jablonski serving up an over-the-shoulder. Wes was the only man who measured up to Constance. At 6 ft., I did not come close.

Nicole Richie, Ashley Madekwe, Jourdan Dunn, and Edward Enninful: These are the kind of sweet people who will help you find your shoes during a Kanye West performance. Trust me!

Carine Roitfeld goes in for the double kiss. Major.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing, who both proved they’re very cool by knowing all the lyrics to Kanye West’s songs.
