Twice is nice…
It was quite a week for designer Rachel Roy as she was feted, not once but twice, with trunk shows. Last week, pals Karolina Kurkova and Nicole Esposito threw a small cocktail/shopping party in Roy’s honor at the Soho Grand penthouse. Guests such as Margherita Missoni, Kathryn Neale and a slew of fashion industry and public relations types tore through racks of clothes — raking in sales of more than $10,000. And on Wednesday, socials and editors hit the third floor of Bergdorf Goodman to view Roy’s spring 2007 collection. André Leon Talley hosted the light luncheon for his newest protégé, whose chic laser-cut black trenchcoat was doing double duty as a dress for the afternoon. Guests, including Jill Kargman, Fabiola Beracasa and Zani Gugelmann gathered around the bar nibbling on egg and bacon tea sandwiches while Roy’s husband, Damon Dash, worked the room, as per usual.
