Inside our exclusive New York event with guest editor St. Vincent
To mark the launch of the October 2024 issue of Wallpaper* we threw a party at Dover Street Market – with a very special guest
Last night at Dover Street Market New York, we celebrated the launch of the October issue of Wallpaper* by hosting a live performance and signing event with St. Vincent.
St. Vincent – one of three guest editors for October, alongside architect Marcio Kogan and chef and food artist, Laila Gohar – indulged her latest creative endeavour: making “post-industrial dance music for clubs I’ve never been to”. Throughout a 30 minute electronic set, from the Dover Street mezzanine, St. Vincent debuted unheard music, including a remix of Broken Man from her latest album, All Born Screaming.
Afterwards she took the time to meet the 200+ guests in attendance, signing the cover of her edition of Wallpaper* while they enjoyed cocktails and sipping tequila, courtesy of Casa Dragones.
Take a peek inside last night’s invite-only event.
