[Padma Lakshmi, Alice Temperley, Joy Bryant. Photos by Patrick McMullan] Alice Temperley debuted her Spring 2010 collection at Milk Studios during fashion week with inspiration drawing from darkly theatrical circus performers from the 1920s and 30s. A few good fashion revelers came to take in Temperley’s designs like Top Chef’s Padma Lakshmi, Derek Blasberg, Fabiola Beracasa, The MisShapes’ Leigh Lezark, and beachwear designer Pooneh Mohazzabi. I caught up with model/actress Joy Bryant to get the 411 on Kanye and to find out some ways in which Patrick Swayze inspired her. After that I chased down model/cookbook author and TopChef co-host, Padma Lakshmi, as she was fleeing Milk Studios to get to a dinner…

We’ve been surprisingly good boys for the last three days. We’ve been going to just as many events as usual, but we’ve been home by 11.
