Ivanka Trump enjoyed an evening at the movies last night during the Cinema Society premiere of New Moon, but there was no Mr. Kushner hooked to her shoulder. Where was hubby Jared? He was also taking in a show…at the Armory for the Victoria’s Secret Angel Show. Sorry, Ivanka…the Angels called!

Plenty of shiny treats to go around.

Chic spotting! Last night, we spied the incomparable Mr. and Mrs. de la Renta dining among friends at the Pierre’s haute new resto Le Caprice. At midnight, the red wine was still being poured…

This Christmas, why not trim the tree with ornaments, lights, strings of popcorn, and, of course, a little Dior? Dior and Claridge’s have teamed up for the 2009 holiday season to bring you a spectacular pine tree that will put Charlie Brown’s measly shrub to shame. John Galliano will break out the bulbs to trim a Chrstmas tree in the hotel’s foyer, and true to form, Galliano’s decorations will be delightfully unorthodox. According to these sketches, everything is looking a bit tropical…

Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana were spotted at Griffin by Chic Report last night, and it turns out the duo is plenty busy in New York. They flew from Italy to shoot their Spring 2010 campaign with Steven Klein and we hear much of the model lineup is the same from the previous season. But this week, the duo was using a studio in Brooklyn…
