Doing anything tonight?
If you feel like trekking to Greenpoint, (or are lucky enough to live there already a la one of us) we suggest heading to Alter at 140 Franklin.
Justin Tranter of Semi-Precious Weapons is hosting a shindig to launch the latest collection of his jewelry line Fetty (most recently seen in Julie and Simon’s Barneys holiday video).
From 7pm to 11pm there will be dancing, there will be drinks and there will be deals.
And there might be, if we’re super lucky, a Gossip Girl in the background. Apparently Justin’s made some new friends…
We’re not the only ones worried about Elle’s massive shake-up this month.
Project Runway’s allegedly looking to partner with a new magazine for season six, which, by the way, will officially be taped in Los Angeles.
WWD reports their choice is likely to be Marie Claire which we find strange considering Marie Claire isn’t exactly a fashion authority. But it is owned by the same parent company as Lifetime, which can’t hurt their chances. The collaboration, however, is likely to do more for the magazine than for the show.
In other Project Runway news, one of our favorite, and arguably most successful, designer alumns, Alison Kelly, is launching a new line for Brooklyn boutique Alter and they’re throwing a shopping launch party this Thursday night on Greenpoint’s Franklin Avenue.
Christian, meet Alison.
