20th Annual Artwalk Auction
Guests first entered the main room, where the silent auction took place. Champagne and food was passed around, but there were stations containing the offerings from over a dozen sponsors. Acme, David Burke Kitchen, The Odeon, and Indochine were among the restaurants offering bite sized portions of unique and delectable treats. Chopin also had a separate bar where they served vodka cocktails. Vogue was the media partner, and there was even a quirky Vogue Magazine cover with Anna Wintour completely made of fusible beads by Victor-John Villanueva that was up for auction. Harley Viera-Newton played an eclectic mix of tunes while dressed in a stunning, red Dolce & Gabbana dress. The Italian brand was the title sponsor of the evening, and also provided an autographed Dolce & Gabbana Fashion Album.
