The Couture Council of the Museum at FIT Annual Summer Party Honoring Valentino

Where: The Boathouse

Who Was There: Valentine Hernandez, Yaz Hernandez, Valentine Hernandez Jr, Patricia Field, Alex McCord, Simon van Kempen, Yaz Hernandez, Zac Posen, Alexa Winner, Tiffany Koury, Cece Cord, Eleanora Kennedy

Other Details: Last night as protesters chanted for a boycott of the Boathouse and yelled "You are supporting sexual harassment," to those who enter the front door, they let guests of the Couture Council pass without a word since the group is accepting of those holding fundraising events. The party was the kick-off to drive ticket sales for the upcoming luncheon honoring Valentino and if the number of well dressed guests enjoying themselves and kicking back Grey Goose was any indication, they'll be selling out in no time.  Plenty of designers were on hand, as well as Alex McCord who just launched her own home decor line Aluxe Home.
