At Calvin Klein’s Mind-blowing High Line PartyCalvin Klein’s 40th-anniversary celebration on the actual freakin’ High Line gave us enough moments of childlike wonderment to last for the next ten seasons.
Goody’s Goes Bankrupt; Barack Obama Is Best-DressedGoody’s expansion plan didn’t work out so well, Barack Obama is one of British ‘Esquire”s top ten best-dressed men, and Agyness Deyn (gasp) drank when she went out in London.

Life After the Runway: Molly Sims, Hungry No More!One of the best parts of going to the tents in Bryant Park is chilling in the W Hotel lounge backstage, where celebs sip on mimosas before making their last-minute trips to the front row. Already, the Olsens and Gwen Stefani (and baby) have made appearances, along with Mya and Teri Hatcher. Demi Moore was supposed to come before Miss Sixty but accidentally got swept into the IMG lounge, where she was swarmed by the crowd from a party-in-progress. We caught up with model turned TV host Molly Sims and got the scoop on her shopping habits as well as the meta-experience of watching her former profession from the front row.

Nicole Richie Almost Looks Pregnant. Almost.The Max Azria show was jam-packed with socialites and celebrities alike, but none of them seemed to matter once the lights dimmed and Nicole Richie — wearing a bump-concealing, floaty thing — made a beeline for her seat. “You can only tell she’s pregnant by her boobs,” squealed the girl next to us. “She looks so much better with the baby weight on,” announced another as we all stared at the wings tattooed on her less-bony shoulder blades. Well comparatively less bony. But it’s a start.

Richie Rich Pays Respects to Tommy Hilfiger
Who would have though that the celeb faction would come out at the eleventh hour, and to see Tommy Hilfiger, no less? And yet the Friday-evening show at the Hammerstein Ballroom was comparatively packed with a mixed bunch of familiar faces. We spied pop star Cassie; Las Vegas star and Cover Girl Molly Sims (who looked lovely but thin in a tightly cinched navy trench) gabbing with Rachel Roy and Damon Dash; model Natalia Vodianova; Playboy Playmate Victoria Silvstedt; and one of this week’s Former Destiny’s Child Members About Town, Michelle Williams, whom we overheard telling a reporter that she has been a fan of Hilfiger’s for years, and that he had always been a big Destiny’s Child supporter. We can totally see Hilfiger rocking out to “Bootylicious.”
