Paula Cooper x NYRB, Lukas Gage at Burger King, Liana Satenstein’s shirt party, Boy Smells, i-D x Substack, Gabriella Karefa-Johnson’s birthday party, and a New York Review of Architecture party.
100% agree art scene outfits are top notch - I think someone should do a Street Style IG account or Substack report specifically about art scene attendees! Last year I went to gallery openings every Thurs in the fall and it's such a fun diverse mix of ages and styles. So much good inspo, and so much less pretentious / more real than fashion week street style, which is so boring now that it's just influencers wearing sponsored outfits. I would do this myself if I had the time!!
And YES! Let’s shoot that. From my notes - lots of people wearing black with just one really fun pop of color, and I saw a lot of a neon chartreuse. Molly ringwald wore bright red socks. Girl in doubled up Agnes B snap cardigans. Lots of Rachel comey, obviously. And the writer Katie Kitamura is unbelievably elegant. I found her skirt by google reverse image search, and it’s unreleased attersee. Art people might be better dressed than fashion people?
Yes!! Art Basel would be PERFECT for Political Parties lol it's way more about the parties than the art tbh. Brand events on steroids. If so - apply for Basel, NADA, and Untitled VIP passes soon! And a Feed Me Art Basel party would be a vibe...My friend Maria (@rococoartadvisory) produces great ones, would be a good collaborator. However...I'm not sure about this year just bc I feel like the art market hasn't been doing well? I can ask Maria what she thinks.
Either way, I am very down for shooting gallery opening street style!
I loved reading camis party dispatches and I kind of loved the randomness of the idea that she went to all the ones she was invited to in a 48 hr time span. Like you didn’t pick one one you had to go to— you went to all of them! You should do THAT as a weekly column! Also thanks for the Paula cooper /sophie Calle recommendation earlier this week bc I snuck in a visit today and it was sooooo good. I loved reading the lost address book piece….
I’m gonna let you guys help me curate my free time now — thanks feedme
Also I would do this as a weekly column it was so exhilarating. But I also have to clean my apartment and hopefully have dinner with my boyfriend at some point. More parties to come, however…
This made my day. And agreed, the show was awesome!!! I love the skylight in the gallery. Feed me reader and friend Harry Raddock told me that artists love to show there because of that skylight.
Bless the bartender at Raoul’s who fed you and whoever introduced beer to Burger King. Great party energy Cami, and noted, PR brand parties are fun, but are they just that?
hah, this year it was my elopement in Hawaii and later our wedding reception, but for a while it was recruitment events for the tech company I was at. Hoping to strike out independently next year.
Fun fact I recently learned my new relative (thanks 23andMe!) is the maitre’d at Raoul’s, so now I have an in. I also recently ventured into the NYRB personals and responded to someone - good correspondence but no connection in person unfortunately
Do artsy vegans no longer exist? I feel like they’ve all swapped pleather for vintage leather — chic af though. I also literally wish I had the confidence to go zero makeup w a red lip 💄
“Feed Me has always been pro skipping your husband’s boring work events to pursue hobbies.” 😂🎯
Bless Cami for partying so hard ❤️🔥 I’ve been wondering about Annie’s bridal line and how it looks in person, def going to visit when they open. 👀
THANK YOU for spending your Friday afternoon reading Feed Me.
My pleasure, truly! The curation of NYC events is unmatched 💥
And bless you for reading and for blessing me
I loved every word! ❤️🔥
I’m so excited to try on the dresses!
Same!

Also love the party report Cami - I was at Sophie's around the same time! Need to start using ChatGPT to plan party routes, genius. Will save me from being an insane person who does this: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Eom-0NYCT-5qUb3FAQuVPKX37xHff2M_E4E7FpKLo-U/edit?usp=sharing

Hold on a minute. I just looked at that schedule and I’m INSPIRED AS FUCK. Should Feed Me cover art basel this year???

Not joking, I think Cami’s party-whirlwind would kill it on OnlyFans.
Tell me more
A lot of people crave access more than anything.
Your audience is velvet rope voyeurs.
This made my day. And agreed, the show was awesome!!! I love the skylight in the gallery. Feed me reader and friend Harry Raddock told me that artists love to show there because of that skylight.
Thank you for reading and trusting us to orchestrate your thoughts

They're rarely fun
Also noted!
so thankful for the recent Carole Radziwill coverage 🙏🏻
the burger king readings are so fun i always make a new friend 💓
They are! Also one of the only parties that wasn’t sponsored or pr invites. And by far the biggest turn out of all of them
alison roman guest lecture hellll yeah
Buckle up
I hate going to events as a guest, but I love planning and running them, so I’m glad to hear the event industry is staying busy there.
What kind of events do you plan
hah, this year it was my elopement in Hawaii and later our wedding reception, but for a while it was recruitment events for the tech company I was at. Hoping to strike out independently next year.
Fucking awesome

Well now that I know they have that, I will

But, would you believe I made a pit stop at a party between the i-D party and Gabby’s birthday?

You’ve always been a brilliant writer AND a relentless partier. Glad to see that both skills are paying off here🙏
