The Ivy Style exhibit, opening Friday and running through January 5, 2013, centers on the "Ivy League look," or what came to be viewed as classic menswear: suits and letter sweaters, bowties and khaki, madras and tweed (but never together!).

Surprise Party for One Management’s Scott Lipps

Last night, a surprise birthday was held at Kenmare for Scott Lipps, the President of One Management, a premier New York modeling agency. Models flocked to the party including Jessica White, former ANTM contestant Gabrielle Kniery, Cynthia Kirchner and Erin Fee. Other guests included Ally Hilfiger, Jordan Shipenberg, Eytan Rockaway, Colin Donahue, Marna Shapiro and Terry Richardson.
