Every year, fitness guru and gym owner David Barton and his wife Susanne Bartsch host a Celebrity Toy Drive in New York City at one of David's fabulous gym locations.
Last night was the 8th Annual event held at the new, stunning Astor Place Gym. Each and every year New York's Elite, Fashionistas, Socialites and Celebrities flock to the exclusive event, bringing a new, unwrapped Toy for entry into the party. Toys are collected and donated to numerous Kids Charities and Hospitals around the city.
The 4-level designer gym, was packed with everyone-who-is-anyone that matters in New York City. Celebrity guests included Marc Jacobs, Jean-Luc Quevauvilliers, Amanda Lepore, Jonathan Bee, Richie Rich, Narcisco Rodriguez, Michael Musto and many more.
I was lucky enough to score an invite to this event, and how lucky I was! I had the chance to meet party host Susanne Bartsch, who is officially named "The Queen of the Nightlife" and is very well-known for throwing the most outlandish parties and events since the early 90's. Last night's event was no exception! With performances, open bar and plently of outrageously dressed fashionistas, the event was a "beyond fabulous!"
We also got the chance to chat with ubiquitous socialite, Jean-Luc Quevauvilliers, who for the past 4 years has assisted Susanne Bartsch in arranging the event. He told us they collect thousands of toys every year and make thousands of children across the city happy!
Who knew you could be so fabulous, whilst giving back to the community!
