Camera Stalking: The Magnum Ice Cream "As Good As Gold" Party With the $1.5 Million Zac Posen Dress
(Zac Posen)
Last night Magnum Ice Cream took over Gotham Hall, transforming the circular space into an opulent viewing room with a magnificent gold vault in the center. Inside the vault were stacks of Magnum Gold Ice Cream with security posted on either side looking as fearsome as the Secret Service.
The event kicked off the Tribeca Film Festival while also marking the launch of Magnum Gold Ice Cream with a short film directed by Emmy Award winning director Jon Cassar titled As Good As Gold and starring Joe Manganiello, Zac Posen and Caroline Correa. However, the real star of the film (and the night) was the $1.5 million 24k gold couture gown designed by Posen and inspired by the decadent gold ice cream bar.
The gown was hand embroidered using over 10,000 24k gold sequins with Caroline Correa, who donned it for the evening, exclaiming that it made her feel like a princess. Indeed standing next to the lovely Caroline I felt as if I were one of her fawning subjects (see below). It truly is a gorgeous gown. Also in attendance were celebrity chef Bobby Flay as well as supermodel Crystal Renn who looked amazing in her own Zac Posen.
Between the film, the celebs, and the fashion folk it was a veritable iPhone feast and I happily clicked away, while gorging myself on the Magnum Gold Ice Cream bar which was delish.
