NEW YORK, NEW YORK: <\/b>Anna Delvey, you will always be famous.<\/p>\n

The convicted scammer\u2014who was found guilty in 2019 for attempted grand larceny, larceny in the second degree, and theft of services<\/a>\u2014cemented her rightful place in pop culture overnight in New York Fashion Week by hosting a pop-up runway show<\/a> on the rooftop of her East Village apartment. A location determined by the fact that the SoHo grifter is still under house arrest f<\/a>ollowing her release from prison in late 2022.<\/p>\n

The terms of her emancipation stipulated Delvey remain in 24-hour home confinement with electronic monitoring and no access to social media, nevertheless, the faux heiress welcomed approximately 100 members of New York\u2019s social scene into her home to stage the first runway show for Taiwanese-born, NYC-based designer Shao Yang.<\/p>\n

Irrespective of how you slice it, the optics of being associated with Delvey is arguably the best PR, with the (reformed? rehabilitated?) con-artist still our id\u00e9e fixe. Not that she needed any assistance to garner organic press coverage for her client, Delvey teamed up with legendary PR maven Kelly Cutrone for the renegade NYFW runway show.<\/p>\n

The result was intrigue and theatrics served on a silver platter, with the downtown-style set gobbling it up in spades. Naturally, this show made us oscillate between curiosity and obsession, with the main question on everyone\u2019s lips: What in fresh hell happened on that rooftop?<\/p>\n

Here, we peel back the emerald curtain to reveal what exactly went down, including if Delvey is just a lever-pulling, ankle-bracket-welding wizard who fooled us all.<\/p>\n

deuxmoi Sold Soft-Serve Ice Cream And Merchandise Outside Of The Show<\/b><\/h3>\n

With anonymous gossipmonger DeuxMoi<\/a> as prevalent as Delvey herself, it felt fitting that the self proclaimed “curators of pop culture” would activate for the show. Dazed <\/i><\/a>reported that Cutrone accepted a DeuxMoi shirt upon her arrival at Delvey\u2019s apartment.<\/p>\n

The Models Were Bused From An Off-Site Location Before The Show<\/b><\/h3>\n

Because of the square meterage of Delvey\u2019s East Village apartment, the models were dressed and prepared at a nearby offsite location. As Dazed <\/i>wrote: \u201cThe result was something of a guerrilla street fashion exhibit on First Avenue, as attendees, passersby, and neighbours clamoured against each other in the rain to get their first glimpse of the models.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans Reportedly \u201cFlooded The Streets\u201d<\/b><\/h3>\n

Echoing Dazed<\/i>, Forbes <\/i><\/a>reported that fans \u201cflooded the streets\u201d (to get a glimpse at\u2026?) with security asking to clear a line for models. WWD <\/i>added that \u201cdozens\u201d of people (though it\u2019s not clear if these were invited guests or party crashers) \u201cwaited outside in a zigzag line on the sidewalk, giving the gathering a decidedly \u201990s feel”.<\/p>\n

Only 75 People Made It Up To The Rooftop<\/b><\/h3>\n

Those in attendance speculate that only 75 guests made it up the five flights to the rooftop. This included Diesel\u2019s Nicola Formichetti, Real Housewives Of New York <\/i>alumni Leah McSweeney and the New York Times<\/i>\u2019 Vanessa Friedman. It\u2019s worth noting that Jessica Pressler, The Cut<\/i> journalist who broke Delvey\u2019s indiscretions in her viral article, was not in attendance. WWD <\/i><\/a>also noted that those who made it up to the rooftop\u2014which had views of the Empire State Building\u2014were concerned about seating arrangements.<\/p>\n

The Runway Was Five Storeys<\/b><\/h3>\n

Putting the real in New York real estate, models walked the five flights up to Delvey\u2019s rooftop. Unconventional yes, but that\u2019s what we get from a makeshift show hosted by someone on house arrest!<\/p>\n

The Sopranos <\/i>Theme Song Soundtracked The Collection<\/b><\/h3>\n

\u201cWoke up this morning\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

The Party Continued At A Nearby Italian Restaurant<\/b><\/h3>\n

Dazed<\/i> reported that drinks and pizzas \u201cflowed freely\u201d, which was allegedly a parting gift from Cutrone. Delvey did not attend the after-party, for obvious reasons. We wonder if she retreated to her abode to clip coverage and generate post-show reports like any good fashion publicist would do. Anna, just asking for a friend here, what are those figures like?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42674,"featured_media":40636,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[65,35],"yoast_head":"\nAnna Delvey Hosted A Runway Show While Under House Arrest<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Anna Delvey just threw a runway show during NYFW while under house arrest.
