javascript:openRMAWithDetails(300020,1,200,300)(NEW YORK) Get together some of fashion’s movers and shakers, challenge them to a game of Trivial Pursuit, and sit back and watch. That was the scene Monday night at the
Esquire Downtown at Astor Place, as teams from
Oscar de la Renta, Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren, David Tang, and
Natalia Vodianova and
Justin Portman, just to name a few, racked their brains to win the grand prize: six business-class tickets to
Jacquetta Wheeler’s parents’ house in Tangier, described as the gateway to the Mediterranean.
And for good cause, too, as Wheeler hosted the evening to benefit and raise awareness for the Darna Center for Girls, a community house in Tangier that helps at-risk women and children by providing them with educational and practical job skills. Among those who attended, and generously donated to help raise about half of the $350,000 needed to build a new girl’s school, included
Gucci Westman, Rachel Weisz, Damon Dash and Rachel Roy, Helena Christensen, Amy Wesson, David Granger, Claire Bernard, and
Behnaz Sarafpour. Even
Caroline Winberg and
Gemma Ward chipped in, offering to accompany the lucky winner of a Rolling Stones VIP package to the concert.
