New York City"s stars fluttered out of the woodwork last night for the New Yorkers for Children Fall Gala which took place at Cipriani"s, honoring music executive Kevin Liles, while raising money to assist NYC children in foster care. Cocktails started flowing for this black tie affair at 6:30 followed by dinner, a live auction and performances by Lupe Fiasco, Patti LaBelle, & Jimmy Fallon?...apparently he"s quite the musician. However, the real show stopper of the night was Julie Macklowe"s gown (pictured above).
