May 18-19 – At the “soft” opening of the offbeat play Mondo Drama, starriing TV talk-show host Caroline Rhea, Sex and the City’s Cynthia Nixon wore vintage (the green coat even had a torn sleeve) and brought longtime companion Danny Mozes, the rarely-seen father of her two children. The play really opens on Thursday; we’ll keep an eye out for big fish.

Designer Diane Von Furstenberg was named designer of the year at the American Apparel & Footwear Association’s 25th American Image Awards. CNN’s Paula Zahn hosted, actress Bebe Neuwirth presented, and a crowd of fashion industry executives dined and danced. Christopher and Dana Reeve were especially happy – a large portion of the more than $1 million raised at the event will go to the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation.
