Other details: One of the top social events of the fall is the Whitney Studio Party, which was held last night at Moynihan Station. The event, which honored notable Pop Art artist Ed Ruscha, drew in the who's-who of the New York social scene. Sofia Coppola, Julia Restoin Roitfeld, Vito Schnabel, and many more filled the gorgeous room, which had decorations befitting the exclusive event. As guests walked in, the one thing they couldn't miss was the installation of stacked Louis Vuitton trunks surrounded by nude models who were being drawn with charcoal by artists. Beside the installation were large screens displaying Ruscha's famous prints, including "I Don't Want No Retro Spective." Music was provided by Brendan Fallis throughout the night, but there was also a special performance by David Byrne, who sang "A Road To Nowhere."
