In Midtown, Replica Handbag Store Club's annual Met Gala Red Carpet Watch Party Toasted to the First Monday in May

As the A-listers, movers, and shakers took to the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art across town on the first Monday in May, Replica Handbag Store Club's most stylish gathered for their annual Met Gala Red Carpet Watch Party at The Whitby.

Just before the red carpet kicked off, Vogue's Julia Hobbs toasted the assembled Replica Handbag Store Club community—and highlighted the many events coming up on the calendar this season. (Up next: a members-only tour of the Costume Institute on May 14!)

Amidst The Whitby's whimsical decor and stunning florals by Ivie Joy, Club members paid homage to this year's theme, The Garden of Time. In between ogling at the Livestream, party-goers had their portraits drawn by artist Rebecca Schneider.
