The day before the Met Gala, I attended the Behind the Scenes Beauty gala and awards at The Lavan in New York City, and the evening served as a reminder that fashion’s biggest moments are never created alone. While the world often focuses on the celebrities walking the carpet, this event shifted the spotlight to the visionaries behind the scenes who help bring every iconic look to life. The ceremony honored industry pioneers Ursula Stephen, Paul Tazewell, Joy Reid, Derrick…

Claire’s Life: Inside the Versace x Onitsuka Tiger SoHo Celebration in Caramel Versace Leather and Le Silla Lace Ups
Last night, I stepped out in SoHo for the Versace x Onitsuka Tiger celebration, a chic coming-together between the Italian luxury house and the Japanese heritage brand.
