Prabal Gurung took his after-party to Chez André, the 22-day-only pop-up club in the basement of the Standard East Village, while Proenza continued their fashion week with an after-party at Irving Plaza. Both parties tied at #5 on our list.

Prabal Gurung After Party Sponsored by Belvedere and Chandon

When: Saturday, September 9 Where: Chez André, The Standard East Village Who was there: Prabal Gurung, Mia Moretti, Kristian Laliberte, Hilary Rhoda, Brian Atwood, Andrej Pejic, Irina Lazareanu, Roopal Patel, Monique Péan, Jodie Synder, Danielle Snyder, Barbara Bush and Maggie Betts. Details: Chez André, the new subterranean lounge in the basement of The Standard East Village, may only be open for 22 days, but so far, they've been making the best of the fleeting days. After an opening party earlier in the week, where Glen O'Brien showed off his karaoke skills, the fashion-set returned to the basement lounge, which is operated by André Saraiva and André Balazs and decorated with Saraiva's graffiti artwork, to celebrate Prabal Gurung's spring show. The party attracted a wide range of guests, but perhaps most surprising was President George Bush's daughter, Barbara Bush, though her twin sister, Jenna was no where in sight.

Proenza Schouler After Party

When: Monday, September 10 Where: Irving Plaza Who was there: Jessica Alba, Kate Bosworth, Derek Blasberg, Natasha Bedinfield, Michael Polish, Harley Vieira Newton, Jenna Lyons, Leandra Medine, Jack McCollough, Lazaro Rodriguez, Erin Heatherton, Ann-Dexter Jones, Bryanboy, Gia Coppola, Miroslava Duma, Annelise Peterson, Lesley Schulhof, Hanne Gabby Odiele, Liliana Cavendish, Meredith Melling Burke, and Ariel Pink. Details: Still celebrating the opening of their Madison Avenue store and also their successful runway show, Proenza's after party was the perfect way to kick off a long week ahead. At Irving Plaza, Ariel Pink took to the stage to serenade the crowd, and a red light shone down on to partygoers as they enjoyed Ariel Pink's performance and later a DJ set by Harley Viera-Newton. The venue's upstairs balcony was turned into a VIP lounge for the evening, and J. Crew creative director, who split with her husband of nine years about 14 months ago, made a rare public appearance with her rumored girlfriend, Courtney Crangi.
