See Inside Vogue Club s NYFW Kickoff with Express—Hosted by Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse

Vogue Club members gathered at the buzzing Jac’s on Bond on the Lower East Side on Friday to celebrate New York Fashion Week with a stylish cocktail party presented by Express. The party seemed to harness the collective energy of fashion’s most famous seven days, and revelers sipped cheekily named cocktails like the Marg by Marc Jacobs, Coachmopolitan, and Tory-tini.

Express ambassadors—and fashion power couple—Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin welcomed guests in the intimate setting with a few remarks centered on the creative whirlwind of working in fashion. British Vogue’s Fashion Features Director (and Vogue Club favorite) Julia Hobbs then shared her thoughts on the vibrant sense of fun and community that defines Vogue Club. (Dylan, ever the charmer, quipped that Julia’s own speech made his look bad, much to the crowd’s amusement.) Then the evening unfolded with lively exchanges, laughter, and the kind of connections that only Fashion Week can inspire.
