The sold-out gala not only dazzled with its fashion, but also demonstrated the organization’s profound commitment to preserving Venice’s historic art and architecture.
It was springtime in New York last Friday night, with temperatures in the high 60s marking the arrival of a new season. But so too did Save Venice’s annual Un Ballo in Maschera event, with this year’s theme of La Primavera. Hosted between both ballrooms at The Plaza Hotel, the gala—which was sponsored by Oscar de la Renta and The Gritti Palace, A Luxury Collection Hotel—transported over 400 guests from Manhattan to the floating city.
Oscar de la Renta’s creative directors Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia presided over the Ceremony for Outstanding Masks. Jordan Roth was applauded for his ingenuity, winning “most creative”; Andy Yu was hailed as the epitome of Italian flair, winning “most Venetian” mask; and Lisa Sher-Chambers embodied the essence of the night best and took home the “most en theme” award. Upon walking up to claim his win, Garcia jokingly asked Roth for a few words.
