Don't Have a Fender-Bender in this Fendi!

Fendi and Vogue gathered the fashion glitterati last night to showcase their latest must-have fashion item, the Fendi Selleria Bicycle. Yes, you heard correctly—the luxury world is making the bicycle the de rigueur fashion accessory! And to prove it, Vogue gathered the hosting prowess of Fabiola Beracasa, Arden Wohl, Genevieve Jones and Leigh Lezark at the Fendi flagship store to celebrate the release of the bike. So, naturally, joining the fun were Kat de Luna, Maggie Rizer, Nicole Wittenberg, Leah C. and Amber Lestrange, amongst many other beauties of the fashion world. In fact, we were even treated to diminutive hors d’oeuvre (yes, diminutive because in this crowd what other preference is there when it comes to food!) by male fashion models who did double duty as servers and kept the champagne swirling throughout the room the entire night. Not to lose sight of why we had gathered, you might want to know that for a mere $5,900 you can have your very own sparkling white Selleria Bike which comes decked out in Selleria leather accessories (a key and bike-chain cover, bike seat, GPS navigation holder and a detachable Fendi case mounted in the front.) So, if you want to be green in style, head out to Fendi’s Fifth Avenue store, where your splurge will be waiting for you. —Lizzie da Trindade-Asher

Because We Love the Louvre

img_3445.JPG They were a world away from the Mona Lisa, but the smiles were much broader this evening at Soirée au Louvre, an event at sponsored by the Young Patrons Circle of the American Friends of the Louvre at Espace, in midtown. With a high glam quotient (after all, the invite called for "French chic"), the festivities were co-chaired by Olivia Chantecaille and Kipton Cronkite also included a silent auction, dancing and joie d'vivre to spare.
