In the heart of Manhattan’s art and fashion scene, the historic New York Marble Cemetery played host to a chic summer gathering that brought together the city’s most well-heeled creatives. On a beautiful June afternoon, the serene surroundings of the cemetery were transformed into a dreamy backdrop for a celebration that honored the arrival of summer and the vibrant spirit of the city’s creative community.
Hosted by multi-hyphenates Charlotte Groeneveld, Colby Mugrabi, and art world fixture Sarah Hoover, the event attracted a stylish crowd that included Christy Turlington, Leigh Lezark, Kate Young, Derek Blasberg, and many more. Guests marveled at the beauty of the historic cemetery while indulging in a delectable grazing table curated by Daniel Emilio. The table featured an array of culinary delights, including plump Medjool dates, deluxe strawberries, grilled peaches drizzled with truffle honey, and sticky licorice. The food, presented on tableware by PORTA, was a testament to Emilio’s belief that food should seduce the senses.
The celebration was a testament to the convergence of fashion, art, and social circles in the heart of Manhattan. Guests dressed in their finest attire, with Winifred ‘Fred’ Sachs, Hoover and Sachs’ newborn daughter, stealing the show in her pink-and-white Chanel ensemble. The event showcased the city’s vibrant creative community and its appreciation for the finer things in life.
