A "Decodent" Celebration At The South Street Seaport

    The museum exhibit is showcasing objects that were present on the SS Normandie; a 1930's cruise ship that often had celebrities like Cary Grant and Marlene Dietrich aboard. Some of the archived items are an Hermes clutch purse, Lalique glassware, and even some furniture.

    Although the styles may have changed, the parallels between the crews on the SS Normandie and the crowd at Tuesday night's event are uncanny. Both are beautiful, wealthy, well-dressed, and know how to have a good time.  Timo Weiland and Kristian Laliberte could pass for modern Cary Grants kinda, right? Maybe? If you're being generous?
