The Frick Young Fellows Ball

The annual Frick Collection Young Fellows Ball is the highlight of New York's social calendar, and this year, hosted in partnership with ESCADA, it was as chic and buzzy as ever. Everyone who's anyone on the circuit was there; seriously, we can't remember the last time we bumped into so many familiar and fabulous faces.

To highlight the evening's cheeky theme, Virtue and Vice (inspired by Paolo Veronese’s Choice Between Virtue and Vice from the museum’s permanent collection), the Frick's always-Instagrammable garden court was lit up red and blue - one side boasting a projection of thorns, and the other glowing with angelic clouds. While that was certainly a sight to be seen, the evening's young attendees were really the ones worth looking at. Devilish guests tapped into their dark side wearing black and red, while more virtuous patrons opted for stunning pastels and florals.
