A peek at the A-List
Just returned from Bravo’s “A-List Awards” show at the Hammerstein Ballroom. I will reserve most of my commentary for after the show’s airing next Thursday, June 12, but in the meantime, here are a few of our photos from the evening. Red carpet arrivals here.
Host Kathy Griffin, channeling Michelle Pfeiffer in The Fabulous Baker Boys. (Check out a brief clip of her show opening performance here.)
Top Chef contingent (+ Project Runway Season 1 winner Jay McCarroll):
Project Runway Season 4 winner (and new Brooklynite) Christian Siriano and Tim Gunn. So we meet again!:
A bizarrely loopy Lauren Hutton (more on this later — wow) and Top Chef‘s Padma Lakshmi:
Tyson Beckford and Saturday Night Live alum Rachel Dratch:
Stylist and future Bravo reality star Rachel Zoe and Tim Gunn:
Bravo A-List Awards
More from the Bravo A-List Awards, celebrating “the best in food, fashion, design, beauty, and pop culture.”
A-List Actor (Female) winner, Dana Delaney (Desperate Housewives):
Anna Sui, winner for “A-List Fashion,” presented to a fashion designer who has proven to be a tried and true trendsetter and tastemaker. Sui beat out Tory Burch, Zac Posen and Proenza Schouler(!)
Despite the clunkiness of the execution, this was probably my favorite segment: the Quick Fire competition between Top Chef judge Tom Colicchio and “A-List Chef” winner Jose Andres. They each whipped up two dishes — on stage — which host Kathy Griffin “dropped” before reaching the panel of TC alum judges.
Real Housewives face off!
To close out the awards ceremony, there was a charity fashion show (benefiting UNICEF) featuring “celebrities” strutting outfits designed for them by Project Runway alums: Candace Bushnell and season 2 designer Daniel Franco, Holly Kiser and season 4 finalist Chris March, Kathy Griffin and season 2 designer Nick Verreos, Katrina Smirnoff and season 3 finalist and “Fan Favorite” Michael Knight, Kat Von D and season 4 finalist Sweet P, Niki Taylor and season 3 finalist Laura Bennett, Nikki Blonsky and season 3 designer Malan Breton, Rebecca Budig and season 3 designer Alison Kelly.
