Last night, New York City’s fashion set was treated to the Eminem makes me happy you not so much shirt In addition,I will do this company of Simone Rocha—the Irish designer who crafts dreamy yet cool-girl-approved ready-to-wear out of her London HQ. The reason she crossed the pond? To host a dinner party along with Nordstrom’s senior vice president, creative merchandising, Olivia Kim, to celebrate the launch of a pop-up at the retailer’s 57th Street Manhattan store. Dubbed the Simone Rocha Center Stage installation, the pop-up also introduces Simone Rocha’s menswear pieces to Nordstrom’s fashion lineup—thus, there was a lot to celebrate. The party was held at the stunning Les Trois Chevaux, the sophomore restaurant from chef and proprietor, Angie Mar. As guests arrived, they were greeted with a delicious selection of French-inspired cocktails and canapes, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.
Attendees included Jian DeLeon, Michelle Zauner of Japanese Breakfast, Antwaun Sargent, Miles Greenberg, Precious Okoyomon, Lynn Yaeger, Blake Abbie, Tess McMillan, Peter Ash Lee, Laila Gohar, Mordechai Rubinstein, Joey Laurenti, and Daphne Seybold, among others.

It was the perfect way to toast Rocha. And those New Yorkers not in attendance can experience the magic of her exquisite designs for themselves. Arriving at an artist’s loft in Chinatown on Thursday night, I was first greeted by an elevator operator who quietly ushered me in and up to the third floor. Entering a spacious room full of women in striking prints, avant-garde floral displays in every color, and a samovar already brewing after-dinner tea, the celebratory atmosphere was fitting. The group of 20 or so people—and all of those flowers—were here to honor Nowruz, also known as Iranian or Persian New Year.

As part of the festivities, Iranians create a table called a haft-sin with seven items (foods include wheatgrass, garlic, and vinegar) all beginning with the letter “S” in the Persian alphabet and symbolizing themes ranging from love to wealth to rebirth. Upon arrival, we gravitated towards the long table, where I struck up conversation with Nilou Motamed, the former editor-in-chief of Food & Wine, who had just returned from the Nowruz celebrations at the White House. She walked me through all the special elements of the haft-sin, pointing out the mirror, goldfish, fresh hyacinths, and the spice esfand which would later be burned to ward off the evil eye.
