Previous editions of the fashion brand and media company\u2019s collaborative party have asked guests to come as Elizabeth Taylor, Princess Diana, and Uma Thurman\u2019s Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction. For Unemployed\u2019s co-founders Cecile Winkler and Sophie Tabet, the magic lies in seeing how everyone makes the theme their own. \u201cThere is nothing more fun than finding yourself in a room where everyone is dressed up as that one thing, but they\u2019re doing it in a different way,\u201d Winkler told Vogue. \u201cIt brings you together. And it feels so absurd. You lose your friends because everyone looks the same.\u201d<\/p>\n
And with a legacy as celebrated as Dolly\u2019s, there was plenty of room for interpretation. Some, including Rita Ora, opted for classic Tennessee Tuxedoes in the form of double denim, while others channeled her iconic 1978 Playboy cover. Then there were the more imaginative takes, like Salvador \u2018Dolly\u2019 and even a pair of sheep brought to life by Saltburn actor Archie Madekwe and Dorian Grinspan. It took a moment for people to realize that the pair were referencing Dolly, the world\u2019s first cloned sheep from back in 1996, famously named after the chart-topper.<\/p>\n
No Dolly wig or prosthetic boobs? No problem. Some of the night\u2019s most memorable looks were improvised. One resourceful guest made do with a powdered barrister\u2019s wig, perhaps left over from a previous Halloween costume, while others stuffed balloons of varying sizes down their t-shirts.<\/p>\n
As word traveled across the city about the buzzy party, the line outside wrapped around the block well past 1 a.m., while inside, Michael Jackson\u2019s \u201cThriller\u201d sent the dance floor into a frenzy, followed by a string of Dolly\u2019s greatest hits that kept the momentum going. According to The Frankie Shop founder Ga\u00eblle Drevet, her philosophy for the night was simple: \u201cLife is short. Have fun with it.\u201d And judging by the crowd, no one needed to be told twice.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Previous editions of the fashion brand and media company\u2019s collaborative party have asked guests to come as Elizabeth…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":390097,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[75,84,83,9,24,63,2901],"class_list":["post-390096","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manhattan","tag-manhattan","tag-manhattan-headlines","tag-manhattan-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-vogue-parties"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/390096","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=390096"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/390096\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/390097"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=390096"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=390096"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=390096"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
