Alison Lou Celebrated Its 10-Year Anniversary With a Festive Holiday Dinner Party at Mr Chow
Last night, fine jewelry brand Alison Lou celebrated its 10-Year anniversary with a festive holiday cocktail and dinner party at one of Manhattan’s most iconic restaurants, Mr Chow 57th Street. Hosted by creative director and Founder Alison Chemla, the soiree gathered influencers, tastemakers, press, and celebrities, all of whom dazzled in Alison Lou jewels, together to toast the tenure in style.
The evening began with a cocktail hour at the bar, where martinis flowed and canapes of cigarettes were served. Once seated, Chemla graciously thanked her guests: “I just want to say thank you to everyone for coming and for supporting the first decade of Lou. Everyone here who has reached out for a custom piece, a birthday, or anniversary has contributed to the culture of what we want to be and more.”
Sitting down with Vogue, she tells us, “I feel like it is a really big milestone for any company–someone once told me that at 10 years, you really start to understand your brand and that s when the growth starts to happen, so naturally, I’m really excited for what’s to come. The brand also just opened its first retail location on Madison Avenue in New York City. “I really like the idea of people exploring the world of Lou. To be able to see the whole collection together (in-store), I feel like people will be able to understand it a lot more, even if you’re just buying one piece of it. All I want is for people to cherish their house of Lou.”
Notable attendees included actors Annabelle Dexter-Jones, Dianna Agron, Erinn Westbrook, and Grace Gummer, DJs Brendan Fallis, Hannah Bronfman, and Mark Ronson, restaurateur Kyle Hotchkiss Carone, Dada Daily’s Claire Olshan, La Ligne’s Molly Howard, Hill House Home’s Nell Diamond, artists Angelica Hicks, Dina Nur Satti, and Paul Arnhold, influencer Leandra Medine Cohen, models Flaviana Matata, Katrina Rusakova, and Maria Borges, W Magazine’s Sara Moonves, stylists Brie Welch, Rolling Stone’s Gus Wenner, and Danielle Goldberg, photographer Pamela Hanson and Theo Wenner, and Sarah Hoover.
A classic Mr Chow feast was then enjoyed by all. To ten more!
