A Downtown Dinner For Manolo Blahnik's Most Beloved Silhouette

by Guest of A Guest · June 13, 2024

    Earlier this week luxury shoe maison Manolo Blahnik tossed together a beautiful paper flower-filled fête to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their silhouette, the Mary Jane - a style beloved by everyone from Kate Moss to Carrie Bradshaw. 

    Perched atop Nine Orchard, guests enjoyed a cocktail hour filled with city views, a candy cart, a silhouette artist and a surprise musical performance by Dianna Agron. With all seated for dinner, host Kristina Blahnik toasted the occasion and entertained the room with tales of Manolo's many storied silhouettes.

    To mark the Mary Jane milestone, the brand will release a special edition in-store only later this year featuring a pearl button closure, a nod to the traditional gift for a 30-year anniversary celebration. Mark your calendars!
