Photo: Billy Farrell Agency  With fashion week comes fashion parties and judging from last night&amp;#039;s crowd, the industry was in need of some stress relief. Believe it or not, last night&amp;#039;s soiree circuit started uptown at Phillips de Pury for Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld and Andy Valmorbida&amp;#039;s Richard Hambleton retrospective. Thanks to the event&amp;#039;s other host\u2014Giorgio Armani\u2014many swans showed up to show off their best Armani pieces while circulating between two floors full of Hambleton&amp;#039;s work. The artist, who&amp;#039;s been called &amp;quot;the godfather of street art,&amp;quot; proved tempting enough to attract guests like Lauren Hutton, Karolina Kurkova, Bar Refaeli, Caroline Winberg and Doutzen Kroes, not to mention a downtown contingent including Theodora Richards in a barely-there catsuit, Alexa Chung in a quirky-cool dress with a cut-out neck, and Sky Ferrerira&amp;#039;s psychedelic frock. Next, the party headed down to M1-5 to celebrate Nicola Formichetti&amp;#039;s pop-up shop and Thierry Mugler parfums. The dark lighting invited downtown dudes to show off their fashion week finery: draped, studded black clothing and backwards caps were de rigeur. Screens displayed sexy images from Mugler&amp;#039;s shows, as well as the brand&amp;#039;s fragrance imagery while rocker Jessica 6 got the crowd going with her performance. Anouck Lepere popped up at the end of night, to inject a dose of pretty into the crowd with her Olivier Theyskens dress. Her thoughts on fashion week so far? &amp;quot;I liked that Marc Jacobs moved his show because of the hurricane. I&amp;#039;m curious what he&amp;#039;s going to do.&amp;quot; In the meantime, the mode&amp;#039;s busy doing good deeds: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m working with a charity called Kageno.org. I&amp;#039;ve been doing jewelry with them,&amp;quot; she said, showing off a cool, artisan bracelet done in collaboration with Repossi. (You can check out the collection here.) We hear tonight&amp;#039;s Alexander Wang party will be frat-themed...check back tomorrow for a full report! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
