If Coco, Tanya, Freja and co. are doing Rag & Bone at Cipriani uptown, and your show's at The Norwood downtown, what do you do?
If you're Sue Stemp, you call your socialite friends, Kate Schelter, Arden Wohl, Theodora Richards etc. to lounge around a plush retro bar while your guests sip champagne and photographers click away. And what would they wear? Flirty party dresses, sequined heels and Stemp's signature silk-screened prints.
The girls wore strands of antique-y jewelry with colorful stones and pewter settings, (like we saw on Vogue's Meredith Melling Burke at BCBG today) which added to the "Kaleidoscope" theme Stemp was going for.
We ran into Mickey Boardman, wearing sequins of his own, on his way out to catch Erin Fetherston; Leigh Lezark half modeled the clothes and half chatted with friends; Sarah Sophie Flicker wore a silver sequined starfish on her head (that we actually loved), and Hamish Bowles swept through with a smile and a wave.
So many party dresses! So little time!

Ooh, I love it...
And I love her blog, have you seen it?! It hasn't been updated in awhile but STILL. It's full of these same people. (She sings karoake with Doo Ri, for example...) http://suestemp.blogspot.com/
