As early festivities to commemorate fashion’s biggest night continue across Manhattan ahead of the first Monday in May, United Talent Agency gathered a group of celebrity clients and friends of the company on Sunday night for their fourth annual Met Gala pre-ball party.
Darnell Strom, Partner and Head of UTA UK, said: “The Met Gala guest list always blends fashion and art, but also film, music and sport. As an agency that represents the most influential people in all of these fields, it’s great recognition for everything we do.” Fashion When the party starts.
Charli D’Amelio was one of the first to arrive at Nubeluz, the stunning skybox cocktail lounge opened by chef José Andrés. Located on the 50th floor of the Nomad New York Ritz-Carlton, this light-filled space offers sweeping skyline views that are especially stunning during prime time. The TikTok star looked stylish and polished in off-the-shoulder black minis and pointed-toe pumps, with her dark hair slicked back in a half-up, half-down style.
Soon after, UTA partygoers Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade attended the after-party, along with Karlie Kloss, who sparkled in a silver lace slip dress. Before settling in, the couple took a minute to enjoy the venue’s spacious terrace, stepping outside to admire the view and snap photos with the sunset in the background.
Back inside, guests, clutching an assortment of Tanquery cocktails, lined up for photos in the event’s makeshift photography studio, while Lisa Rinna tried to make her way through the busy room but was stopped by other guests, including Ella Emhoff, who was greeting guests. traitor Alum has a warm hug.
“My daughter Amelia [Hamlin]going to the Met Gala tomorrow. My husband Harry left today, but I stayed because I wanted to go to this party,” Linna, who spent the weekend partying in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, told me Fashion In a corner. “Harry doesn’t often do a lot of fashionable things… so he’s excited to be part of it. It’s been a great weekend.”
Rinna, who danced by the marble bar in a vintage Rodarte sequined dress and matching boots, wasn’t the only one bringing a sense of fashion-forward drama to the party. Just before 9pm, new UTA client Janelle Monáe arrived wearing a menswear-inspired ensemble that included an oversized blazer paired with a white-collared shirt and black trousers.
