Ashley Javier's intimate aerie in Midtown Manhattan. The hairstylist sits with his dog. There's a pot of Moroccan lentils brewing at hairstylist Ashley Javier's glamorous penthouse atelier on 28th Street and Fifth Avenue. Fragrant and bubbling, the healthy protein-rich concoction is an Ashley specialty, offered, along with exotic herbal tea, to visiting clients. Casually uncorking a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, Ashley leads me onto the leafy, sun-drenched terrace off one of the two apartments that he welded together. Ash, as his clients call him, invited me into his world, the unlisted salon that has seen the likes of A-list actresses (Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie, Penélope Cruz, Chloë Sevigny to name a few), fashion mavens (Donna Karan, Behnaz Sarapfour, Adi Gil and Angela Donhauser of threeASFOUR), models (Karolina Kurkova, Jaquetta Wheeler), and a slew of "It"-girl socialites (Sasha Heinz, Megan McCain, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Allison Sarofim, and Lauren Bush).

Terence Koh and Daphne Guinness. Photograph by Todd Eberle. Tuesday night saw another party at the top of New York City's Standard Hotel, with another celebration for the DVD release of Vanity Fair special correspondent Matt Tyrnauer's documentary about fashion designer Valentino Garavani. As usual, the stars flocked to pay tribute to one of the gods of the red carpet, with heavyweights such as Madonna, Hugh Jackman, and Adrien Brody stopping by. Of course, no party would be complete without a slew of Pretty Young Things, and they turned out in force, with Mischa Barton, Byrdie Bell, Genevieve Jones, and Harley Viera-Newton leading the charge. Madonna's boy toy, Jesus Luz, took to the decks to play the spot's signature loud techno, and gallerists Larry Gagosian and Mary Boone mingled, admiring the view. Designer Thakoon Panichgul stepped into the smoking nook with some trepidation. "This seems like the Amazing Race,...

The Polaroids that fashion designer Stephen Sprouse took of his friends in his heyday look a lot like the scene at Allison Sarofim's "1980s downtown New York City"-themed party last weekend at the socialite's West Village home. Partygoers were decked out in everything from Day-Glo, graffiti-print outfits (Marc Jacobs and Lorenzo Martone) to Keith Haring–inspired fashions, to a very convincing Tama Janowitz getup. Even Interview-magazine veterans Bob Colacello and Glen O'Brien were there—in person. Herewith, a sampling of the ensembles that Vanity Fair photographer Todd Eberle captured at the Halloween party of the year.

Lauren and Andres Santo Domingo on Halloween and on a regular night. From PatrickMcMullan.com. A torrential downpour didn't keep New York City's social set from going all out on Halloween this weekend. Socialite Allison Sarofim threw her annual bash at her West Village pad, which designer Marc Jacobs, downtown social Arden Wohl, and Gloria von Thurn und Taxis stopped by. Among those who partied at Nur Khan's throwdown at the Gramercy Park Hotel's Rose Bar were actors Hugh Grant, Sienna Miller, Kirsten Dunst, MTV's Alexa Chung, model Lily Donaldson, and social fixtures Lauren and Andres Santo Domingo. And over at the Smile's party in the NoMad district, Mischa Barton, wearing a huge peacock costume, glided up to the entrance and stationed her five-foot span of plumage in the faces of a dozen irritated revelers stuck at the door. Luckily, she seemed not to hear one woman's colorful commentary on...

Clockwise from top left: Jean Pigozzi and Stuart Parr, social fixture Allison Sarofim, designer Chris Benz, interior designer Carlos Mota, Sony exec Rob Wiesenthal, and actress Kim Raver. From PatrickMcMullan.com. Where will you be for Halloween? That's the question that fashionable partygoers are asking instead of the more traditional What? And with good reason, because this year the holiday falls on a Saturday night, and there are more celebrations than ever to choose from.

- And they say moderation is the spice of life. Screen Media Films, a late-comer to the frenzy of Tribeca wheelin' and dealin', has just announced that they are picking up the scraps, err -- have acquired international distribution rights to "Lake City", a feature directed by Hunter Hill and Perry Moore. The film, which premiered at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival, describes the tempestuous relationship between a boy (Billy, played by Troy Garity) and his estranged mother (Sissy Spacek). It's a great opportunity for mother and son to figure out their issues, if only Billy's wife (Drea de Matteo) didn't stiff a murderous drug dealer (ironically played by Dave Matthews) and set him on Billy's trail. Set in the Virginia countryside, Billy is forced to make amends for his past and reconnects with a childhood pal (Rebecca Romijn). "Lake City" was produced by Allison Sarofim, Donna Bascom and Mike Ryan,
