Last night, a fashion-heavy crowd gathered at Raf’s, the newly-opened Noho restaurant owned by the talented twin sisters Jennifer and Nicole Vitagliano. The occasion? Augustinus Bader’s launch at Moda Operandi. Hosted by Lauren Santo Domingo, co-founder and chief brand officer of Moda Operandi, alongside Hayley Bloomingdale and Augustinus Bader’s CEO and co-founder, Charles Rosier, the event was as decadent as a bottle of The Rich Cream.
Guests, including Deepak Chopra, Kate Young, LaQuan Smith, Brandon Maxwell, Vanessa Traina, Ivy Getty, Sarah Hoover, and Colin King, sat at beautifully adorned tables (florist Carolina Malabet had filled the room with Helleborus, peonies, and Black Parrot tulips arrangements) for a three-course meal. Renowned chefs Mary Attea and Camari Mick, the masterminds behind Raf’s beloved bread, delighted guests with a menu that perfectly complemented the evening’s elegance: a little gem salad, followed by spaghetti with tuna bottarga, and a roast half chicken and fennel dish. And for dessert, a chocolate torte.
But dessert wasn’t the final treat of the night; guests departed with gift bags containing Augustinus Bader’s The Light Cream and The Rich Cream, as well as their latest introduction, The Retinol Serum. And though it was a marvelous night, it’s safe to say that many in attendance couldn’t wait to get home to start skin-care regimes with their new products.
