It was a great night at the Harry Rosen store in Yorkville with wine tastings from Le Clos Jordanne, a Canadian boutique Burgundian-style winery, that also held a tasting last year at the menswear store. But this year was even better with the addition of the fashion show inspired by Father’s Day entitled “Top of the Pops”. It was probably the quickest fashion show I’ve ever witnessed at what seemed like a whirlwind of 5 minutes. These guys are all…

It was a drizzly night but that didn’t stop over 1,500 guests from gathering at the The Power Plant Gallery for the highly-anticipated annual Power Ball art party. I was lucky to attend last year’s Powerball: Quarter Life Crisis which was quite the riot so this year was definitely worth marking on the calendar.
