Yesterday evening, ACRIA held their 14th annual holiday dinner with InStyle Magazine and Urban Zen at the Stephan Weiss Studio. The event was, coincidentally, every bit stylish, urban and zen.

Diners Bob Colacello, Donna Karan, Carolina Herrera, Ron Perelman, Andrew Saffir, Daniel Benedict, Gillian Hearst Simonds, Hal Rubenstein, Jonathan Soros, Jason Wu, Jackie Astier, Tim Morehouse, Helen Lee Schifter, Liliana Cavendish, Terence Koh, Nicole Miller, Patrick McMullan, Naeem Delbridge and Scott Buccheit sat at the multiple long tables, decorated all in white, black and silver. With candles, works of art, flowers and giant sculptural lighting; it was a setting which would have made Martha Stewart proud.
