Giancarlo Giammetti hosts a dinner to honour Valentino
At Christie's, New York
Set amongst Christie's iconic art collection – including Warhols, Basquiats, Ruschas – the crème de la crème of New York's fashion set (and beyond) gathered to celebrate Valentino's new tome, Valentino: At the Emperor's Table.
Beatrice Santo Domingo, Carolina Herrera and her husband Reinaldo, Bob Colacello, Alexa Chung, Andre Leon Talley, Hamish Bowles and many more all came to celebrate their friend's chic new book.
The performance was taken care of by Lil Buck – who surprised the guests during dinner, with host Giancarlo telling guests that Madonna recommended him for the gig. Meanwhile, Andre Leon Talley – who wrote the book's foreword – was singing the praises of the book, telling everyone that the recipes it contains are "amazing".
