Not ever being one to let the parade pass him by, the infamous Richard Granger, designer, actor, and personality, was the Host With The Most of what has become a Halloween tradition, his annual soiree on October 31.
Where else can you find more than a few tricks, and always a couple of tasty treats (you know who you are) and watch the parade from his fab second story terrace where you can make as many bitchy comments about the costumes below without being heard, and we just love to do that don't we?
Especially since we loved the Occupy Sesame Street Muppet, and wondered what would make someone dress up like a giant used Maxi Pad.... As always the costumes were extraordinare, with our own HAL (Hag-at-large) Helen channeling Amy Winehouse.
The gorgeous and talented Patricia Clarkson was there, and so was Pee Wee Herman, and Marco as the Green Lantern, and that sensational twosome, Ron and Charles who chatted us up about their bunnies, including Ron's vintage bunny jacket and their bunny that recently flew to Michigan.
Talk
Diva broke the wig mold this year sporting a long silver wig that she
picked up at K-Mart for 2.99. GASP! A wig for 2.99? How can that be?
Well its the K-Mart Halloween Day Super Sale girls, so mark your calendars for next year! Our adorable Party Enabler, Geza, made sure everyone had everything they needed, as he ran from the microwave, to the bar, to the terrace, to the phone, stopping to pet Lizzie, Richard's Westie, he just didn't stop! But even by midnight he still looked fresh as a daisy!
Venturing out into the night, Fluffie, Talk Diva, and Geza decided they wanted to attend Suzanne Barsch's annual Halloween Fete at the Standard. With not a cab in sight, we were forced to hike over to 10th Ave, while Fluffie had to endure such name calling as "It's Lady Gaga" or "Look it's a chicken".
No you idiot, it's The White Swan, Natalie Portman, did you even see the movie?" Arriving at The Standard by 12:15 the people waiting on that long line were mostly uninteresting and recovering from their arduous journey on the Path train, clad in their recently purchased 29.99 dollar costumes from Ricky's, the same girls that dance around their pocketsbooks in a club. HOT! Although we heard that the crowd inside was stellar, the Hags and Geza had no choice but to hail a cab and head off, only to have the driver screech away, thinking a giant chicken was attacking his cab...
Next time, we'll take the limo.....
