Novogratz Models McQueen as Parties Rage on Cusp of Fall Season

  • The Who perform at Pace Gallery’s new W. 25th Street building
  • Stephen Scherr, Donald Mullen gather at High Line Plinth

New Yorkers have exactly one weekend before the fall social season brings opening nights at the opera and symphony, and a slew of parties at the expanded Museum of Modern Art.

Sounds stuffy considering the back-to-school shoulder season that brought Josh Harris to a castle (Belvedere in Central Park), Mike Novogratz to a runway (modeling Alexander McQueen for Laureus U.S.A.), Colin Teicholtz to Red Hook at 2 a.m. for an epic puzzle scavenger hunt, Stephen Scherr and Donald Mullen to underneath a 16-foot-tall bronze bust of a black woman on the High Line Plinth, and Steve Tananbaum to Pace Gallery’s new building to see the Who.
