party monster: the rebel fashion nyfw party

dive, turn, work

by nylon

Well, Fashion Month is here and we helped New York City kick it off with a dinner and a bang. The Cools helped us throw our annual Rebel Fashion party that took over two floors of the Meatpacking District’s Up&Down where DJs Chelsea LeylandVashtie, Alex Winston, and Jasmine Chess kept everyone from Gigi Hadid & Joe Jonas to American Idol’s Randy Jackson dancing. Before all that, though, we sipped on Stella Artois and Stella Cidre as we ate food from The Fat Radish with WaterfordxRebel stemware. (Don Julio was also on hand for the tequila drinkers.)

With swag bags filled with Frends headphones, we hopped in a Lyft and arrived at the party where WeDú was giving a seriously inspiring fashion presentation. Clinique’s #FaceForward photo booth brought the emoji game and its candy bar stocked with sweets and Chubby Stick lip balm. Party go-ers got to preview the new RebelxWaterford collection including the amazing Ella B Gold cuffs—a perfect, bold accessory for Fall. After a few Svedka drinks and hardcore dancing, it was, unfortunately, time to go home. Thankfully, there were more Lyft credits in the party bags, along with Empowered by You + Equinox gift cards to help us feel good and work off our Rebel Fashion Night. 

Never forget a thing with the gallery ahead.
