When Miss Katy Perry called and said she wanted to host our Met Gala after-party at Top of The Standard, we were all, “OK, fine.” After the annual fête uptown where this year’s theme was Comme des Garçons (who could tell!), the bright lights lit out for downtown and made their way up, up, up to that room of all rooms. While the after-party could never really disappoint, per se, this year’s bash felt downright loose (Katy may have had something to do with it). The stars not only aligned, they mingled…and danced! Especially when the marching band, the Original Pinettes, hit the floor—yes, we had a marching band in Boom. Turns out the room that’s seen it all still has a few tricks up its sleeve. OK, OK, on to the photos…
