Trust renowned jeweler Tiffany to take a party to new heights. The champagne-fueled Blue Book Ball was held last week in NYC in honor of the 2013 Blue Book Collection of Tiffany’s most breathtaking jewels, inspired by the Roaring Twenties. The event took place in a makeshift 1920’s supper club beneath a 31-foot-high Tiffany Blue Box covering Rockefeller Centre's famous ice rink, complete with a champagne tower, live aerial performers and a performance by Broadway star, Megan Hilty. Bill Cunningham summed it up in his New York Times video when he said, “ In my 60 years of covering parties I have never seen an extravaganza like I saw this evening.”
The approximately 400 guests included celebs like Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, Jessica Biel, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Michelle Williams; along with Baz Luhrmann (director, producer and co-writer), Catherine Martin (costume designer) and Carey Mulligan of the upcoming blockbuster, The Great Gatsby. The starlets were, of course, loaded with Tiffany jewels - SJP wore two statement necklaces while Gwyneth wore an of-the-moment opal, sapphire and diamond brooch. Meanwhile, Kate Hudson lit it up with dazzling pink morganite and diamond earrings.
Sigh...and where was my invite?
