RICCARDO’S SOCIAL CLUB: Riccardo Tisci and his social club – including Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk – showed up at around 2 a.m. on Monday at the Givenchy after party at Queen, slipping through a private entrance.
There was an Ibiza vibe at Paris’ legendary nightclub that reopened this fall at a new address just a quick walk from its prior Avenue des Champs-Elysées location. It was jam-packed and rocking to techno music by DJs Seth Troxler and Dixon.
“It’s how I like it,” said Tisci, sitting surrounded by his pals Sky Ferreira, Bella Hadid, Amber Valletta, Mariacarla Boscono, CL, Soo Joo Park, Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.
“Riccardo is a very good friend – my best friend,” said Alas.
“I am your best friend,” joked Piggott.
The photographer duo has a book in the pipeline, to be published by Taschen in September.
Park, who sat with countrymate Korean star CL at the Givenchy show, has projects of her own on the docket. “I do Chanel, and then I go to Korea, for a TV show,” she divulged, explaining its a sort of “Project Runway.”
“I am the host. It’s the first season,” she explained, adding she feels “pretty” comfortable on air.
Meanwhile, Cooper and Shayk were sharing a quiet moment together.
Gabriel-Kane Day-Lewis showed up earlier in the evening with model Alex Moxham.
“The show was amazing,” said the son of Daniel Day-Lewis and Isabelle Adjani. “I was sitting next to [Bradley], and when we arrived, the press got crazy. When Irina walked, we smiled. She was a goddess.”
Cooper is off to New York next week. “He just came with his girlfriend for fashion week,” said Gabriel-Kane Day-Lewis. “He was initially a friend of my father. We had dinner one night and became very good friends.”
Others had a more cinematic encounter.
“We met at the ‘Zoolander’ premiere,” said Moxham, referring to Day-Lewis.
“For me, Riccardo is a genius,” said Ulyana Sergeenko. “It was an amazing show today – the suits, shoes, all the prints. The show was also amazing as a show, the setup, the people.”
Other revelers included Toni Garrn, Ana Beatriz Barros, Noor Fares and Margherita Missoni.
Had Boscono ever been to Queen before?
“Oh yeah, back in the day,” she said.
Ditto for Etienne Russo. “I said: ‘I don’t need to look at the address; I know where the Queen is.’ And then I went to the old place,” he said. “I think everyone did.”
Russo still had a few more fashion shows to produce this season – namely Hermès, Chanel, Kenzo and Miu Miu.
