Here is a lesson in not leaving a party early: When the Dior show ended on Monday night, some guests headed straight for the exit.
This is standard behavior at runway shows — muscle memory for many attendees like fashion editors, influencers, buyers and celebrities. (On the V.I.P. list for this production: Charlize Theron, Naomi Watts, Michelle Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy and Haerin from NewJeans.) Often, guests must rush across traffic-jammed cities to make it to their next appointment.
But this wasn’t fashion week — Dior presenting a fall collection at the Brooklyn Museum in the middle of April was a special occasion. No need to storm the exits! Have a glass of champagne and some canapés, like bagels the size of half-dollar coins. Linger for a chat with Lauren Santo Domingo, the co-founder and chief brand officer of Moda Operandi, and Karlie Kloss, the model and nascent media mogul.
“It’s a great thing for New York,” Ms. Santo Domingo chirped. “It’s been a long time since we had a European show here.” (Balenciaga, another Paris-based fashion house, paid a visit to Wall Street in May 2022.)
