We’ve always said, “no rest for the weary,” and when you’re dealing with Fashion Week, the saying goes above and beyond the 6-inch heels we’ve seen at Milk Studios this week (seriously, how do you ladies even wear those??). Between our Kanon bar located on the 8th floor, checking out shows, talking to designers like Carlos Campos, and general cocktail research with the folks from Apotheke–we’ve been busy. That being said, we’re never too busy for a good party and a good time. When the folks from Apotheke invited us to their new bar called Pulqueria to help toast AnOther Magazine's 21st issue launch last night, we grabbed our dancing shoes and headed straight to Chinatown. Hidden on one of those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it side streets whose only indication of a bar last night was the large smoking crowd outside, Pulqueria is set up like a fancy cantina. Awesome. Upon our arrival, we were led down a narrow dark staircase that opened up to a bar exploding with music and good looking people.
We immediately spotted Byrdie Bell, our shot buddy Kate Lanphear, Waris Ahluwalia, and FOKS Bronques and Facehunter doing what they do best (aka finding all the best looking people in the place). Between the serious eye candy, delicious drinks (think margaritas WITH VODKA), and cigars being passed around, everyone was in a good mood. And as for the resting part? Well, the only resting we saw was people leaning up against the bar for more drinks. Here’s a look at the night in photos, from the perspective of our favorite lensman, Yvan Rodic.
