The lines of women started forming by 9 a.m. on Nov. 15 at a venue across the street from Scores New York, a “gentleman’s club” on West 28th Street. The anticipation was palpable, and the leopard print unrepentant. They weren’t there for the steaks or cocktails; they were there for the drama—and the selfies. This was the first BravoCon, an immersive experience from Nov. 15-17 for fans of the pop culture cable network.

Throughout the multiday experience, attendees gathered at three New York venues—the Manhattan Center, Union West, and Skylight Modern—to watch their favorite stars spill gossip, make cocktails, and perform their signature dance moves.
