Georgina Chapman


Jemma, Countess of Mornington


Lauren Bush and David Lauren


Paul Arrouet and Dylan Lauren


Byrdie Bell


Alexandra Reeve and Matthew Reeve

Georgina Chapman, the designer of Marchesa, was especially happy to see her friend from London, Jemma, Countess of Mornington, and spent time introducing the visiting British make-up artist to her friends.

This is Lauren Bush’s last event until this Saturday’s nuptials of her cousin Jenna Bush and law student Henry Hager. She will be flying to President Bush’s ranch in Crawford, Texas at the end of the week for the wedding. Family friend Maggie Betts will also be on hand for the Christian ceremony.

The gala’s organizers made it a point to invite Alexandra and Matthew Reeve, the eldest children of America’s original superhero, the late Superman actor Christopher Reeve.

Georgina looks so pretty. Harvey is so lucky to have her.

Jemma and Jodie Kidd both remind me of Kate Moss.

Is Byrdie the missing Olsen triplet now? She reminds me of a geisha almost.

Alexandra Reeve is gorgeous! So ethereal, such delicate features, and so classically beautiful. More of her, please?

2. Miss Popularity - May 8, 2008

Paul and Dylan are way too cute. The way they cocked their heads on the same angle… and I am sure they did not do that on purpose. When will he propose to her? Dylan Arrouet… sounds nice!

3. minnie - May 8, 2008

Byrdie - What an awful choice of a dress! What were you thinking??

4. UES - May 8, 2008

Byrdie.. Don’t have enough adjective to describe this disaster. Didn’t one of the Olsen sister wear this dress or something similar last year?

5. Amen - May 8, 2008

Byrdie is unrecognizable, don’t like makeup or dress.

the Olsens actually looked decent this year — James -you missed the scoop! look at style.com they look like normal girls.

I just looked through over 100 photos, and do not see Arden, I am
mystified….especially with her mother’s super hero comic books, wouldn’t you think those 2 would have squeezed out some invites somehow ? They must be so sad.

6. Amen - May 8, 2008

Hey- for a laugh, check out the woman behind the Reeves, what’s up with her ?

I hope the Reeves never have another illness in their family, ever.

7. sia - May 8, 2008

Dylan and Paul seem like such a cool couple. Like, nice. I dont know them personally of course.
Does anyone know Paul’s background? Is he French? What a handsome couple. I love Dylan. She and David dont look alike that much.
And is something going on with David L’s front/ temple area- hair? It’s always somewhat stringy and wispy on top.

No Feed back on Lauren! amen!
Alexandra is stunning but her neck is freakishly long.

8. JemmaluvsTory - May 8, 2008

Georgina looks beautiful, and the rest are blah.
Thank goodness Lauren didn’t wear one of those hideous feed bags to this event.

9. SuSu - May 8, 2008

Byrdie - what were you thinking? Just awful. Everyone else looks terrific!

10. sia - May 8, 2008

oops sorry i meant ‘bag’.

11. Bergdorf - May 8, 2008

Shelf life, Byrdie, shelf life… only people like Tinsley Mortimer and Amanda Hearst will last forever. Get those modeling deals, acting jobs, and promotion work while you can sweetheart.

Oh, and Alexandra Reeve… you can stay for as long as you want. Stunning. Such a classic beauty.

12. About Paul - May 9, 2008

Paul works at Bear & Stearns and graduated from UPenn. Nice guy and known to be an animal in the sack. Dylan is just waiting around for him to propose.

13. About Paul - May 9, 2008

Byrdie Bell is such a sad, SAD figure. Nobody really spoke with her on Monday night. She’s becoming the next Olivia Palermo which is so ironic. I guess this backstabbing social climber is slowly getting what she deserves.

14. About Paul - May 9, 2008

Jemma is one lucky lady. Her husband, Arthur, is HOT!!! He only has a subsidiary title of Earl or Mornington but once his grandpa (Duke of Wellington) and dad (Marquess of Douro) pass he will become the Duke of Wellington… making Jemma a Duchess.

15. maggie - May 9, 2008

byrdie must get the vote as disaster of the year.

16. Bree - May 9, 2008

georgina looks stunning
jemma’s hubby is an aristocratic hottie
alexandra reeve looks unbelievably gorgeous

agree with maggie

17. monacobelle - May 9, 2008

Georgina looks fabulous! I love her!
Byrdie Bell, eww… Why she was invited?

18. Amen - May 9, 2008

that dress does nothing for Georgina’s bosom, has see lost more weight and losing her shape too ? the dress is lovely itself.

Lauren Bush looks beautiful with some makeup here.

19. Ela - May 9, 2008

Who is Alexandra Reeve???? What a pretty girl!!!

20. Piper - May 9, 2008

Ela, Read below the picture…..

21. cparkeast - May 9, 2008

Byrdie - please stop getting stoned before these events. I’m sick of the same tired stoned pose like you have no idea where you are.

The Reeves look like dress maker dummies.

Good to see the Zinterhofers together for a change

Georgina’s body rocks in that dress. Where was Harvey?

22. bSL - May 9, 2008

Georgina is so pretty it hurts.
Birdie & Lauren Bush did not do their best… better next year maybe?

23. Kimberley in Cali - May 9, 2008

WTF is up with David Lauren’s boots? With a tux; not even polished boots. But I guess we can be thankful he didn’t wear his usual hiking boot things.
Who is that lady behind the Reeves and the DuPonts? She actually is quite pretty?

24. Ash - May 9, 2008

Georgina is the new Tinz! She looks like a beautiful Bond girl. JEaloUs!

25. Jemma - May 9, 2008

what is up with Byrdie’s eyeshadow? green? and to the eyebrows?
Georgina is a class act. She reminds me of a porcalin doll, her face is flawless. And her hair is always perfect. She does look thinner these days. She is like the pretty and thinner version of Melania Trump.

26. Jemma - May 9, 2008

#21, LOL, spot on description of Byrdie

27. Jemma - May 9, 2008

About Paul, what’s the scoop on Olivia. Haven’t seen her around recently. She’s such a pretty girl though

28. hm - May 10, 2008

Lauren: boringly good.

Dylan looks tackalicious and like a housewife from orange county.

Byrdie’s look isn’t bad, but it’s definitely too avant-garde and too gold for other socialites to enjoy.

Alexandra is gorgeous.

29. Carol - May 10, 2008

Best wishes to Jenna (via Lauren and Maggie) today! Saw it on here and then on the news and just had to comment. Lauren, as always, is such a beauty and I look forward to seeing more of her modeling and philanthropy work!

30. Emma - May 10, 2008

#23 David Lauren’s boots. Maybe he didn’t think he’d have time to change boots before heading out to Texas for the wedding? Or is it true he was “disinvited”?

31. Dr. Vogue - May 10, 2008

Emma, I am not sure about David Lauren (Ralph Lauren’s son) being disinvited to the Met Gala. Now that David is running a huge portion of the company I doubt Vogue would gamble on the revenue it receives from the company ad campaigns consistently running every month.

32. c'est moi - May 10, 2008

#31, I think Emma was talking about his being disinvited to Jenna’s wedding. Don’t know why that would be the case, if only because his dad is a major Dem donor…

33. Emma - May 10, 2008

Yes, I didn’t make that clear; I meant to the wedding. The rumor is silly because it’s based on stupidity. The invitation list was kept to 200; that probably means people who might have been invited to a White House wedding weren’t invited to a small, private one in Texas.

34. Dr. Vogue - May 10, 2008

c’est moi & Emma: I forgot about…what do you call them?…oh yes… the Republicans have a shindig this weekend. Hee Haw!

35. Texan - May 11, 2008

Please tell me that the BB love-fest is over. Those Sundance pics were tragic but this is beyond the pale. This is like a bad prank.

David Lifshitz’s boots would be laughed off a ranch in TX.

Jemma Kidd is gorgeous, always has been.

36. xoJacquelinexo - May 11, 2008

Henry Hager will be graduating with an M.B.A. not a J.D.

37. me - May 11, 2008

Georgina is beautiful but I’ll not crazy about the dress.

38. sia - May 11, 2008

wow David L was disinvited to the wedding? That is just such a faux pas in terms of Lauren being a first cousin, right? And she has dated David for a long time now? Even with just 200 closest family/ friends, that sounds off. But then again what can you expect from the Bush’s.

Oh for everyone commenting on the woman in the silver/ grey dress behind the Reeves and the DuPonts (as well as other photos) - she is clearly everyone’s favorite from all the Superwomen posts– everyone keeps commenting about her! Maybe she worked the event? She was shooing some folks, guiding, standing very close to the photo line….? Love her dress.

39. Emma - May 12, 2008

Sia, that was one rumor and it was based on silliness and ignorance. It would have been rude if he’d been “disinvited” but it’s doubtful that happened. It would have been hard to keep that guest list at 200 people; the Bush’s have a big family (maybe the Hager’s too) and with 28 in the “house party”. More than 10% of the guests were attendants so maybe a lot of people weren’t invited.

Can anyone tell what the woman in the silver grey dress has on the top of the dress?
