Refinery 29 NYFW Kickoff Party

To highlight the start of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Refinery 29 held an exclusive kickoff party on February 9th. The event took place at Double Seven in the Meatpacking District of New York City.

Belvedere Vodka sponsored the event with three very special cocktails on the menu. The drinks were titled The East Side Cocktail, Strawberry Pepper Fix, and Blackberry Collins. Who would have thought that pepper would make a Belvedere cocktail delicious? It certainly did in the Strawberry Pepper Fix.

Refinery 29's guests enjoyed great music sets from both Solange Knowles and DJ Chelsea Leyland as they sipped on their Belvedere cocktails.

Ali Hilfiger, Luigie Tadini, Hannah Bronfman, Louise Rose all made an appearance at the kickoff party. Other guests included Refinery 29's senior editor, Kristian Laliberte and American model, Elettra Weidemann.

There was a photobooth where fashionable guests could get their photo taken, in order to remember the amazing night. All the photos were uploaded directly to the Refinery 29 Facebook page.
