The Frick Collection’s Fellows, Young Fellows and their various plus-ones came out on two consecutive evenings—Tuesday, June 9 and Wednesday, June 10—for the museum’s annual Spring Garden Party. Inside, attendees watched “Ruffles & Ribbons: Fashionable plates from the time of Marie Antoinette,” but true Fashionable plates can certainly be found outside, making their turns around the Fifth Avenue Museum’s very exclusive garden. Said garden had little competition, as the see-and-seeing set leaned heavily on stunning seasonal pastels and polished floral motifs. Live jazz by musicians at the Juilliard School set the mood, and cheery margaritas and champagne flutes accompanied the scratch and seasonally inspired desserts cemented it. Gallery talks ran throughout the evening, open to all who ventured indoors to privately view the permanent collection or Ruffles & Ribbons. However, one suspects that most of the style commentary was taking place in the garden, where the crowd paraded and frolicked long after the sun went down. These were some of our favorite looks:
