A Night at Hotel NYCxClothes

You checked in. Now what?

The inaugural NYCxClothes holiday soirée was a fashionable affair as guests were instructed to dress to the nines for a night of old New York decadence. Hostesses Shelcy and Christy Joseph commanded the room in high-shine attire, making it clear who the women of the hour were. Christy stunned in a vibrant orange midi dress boasting an alluring open back and faux raffia trims. First seen on Australian label Aje’s resort 2023 runway, the festive design made for an undeniably chic appearance. Similarly, Shelcy dazzled in a gold Oséree metallic slip dress, finished with glamorous feathers.

Welcoming a crowd of over 75 fashion and beauty insiders at Hotel Delmano, the duo planned an evening of indulgence—filled with towers of champagne, oysters and hors d’oeuvres. “We wanted to bring together our friends, connections, brand partners to have a good time and show you how NYCxClothes gets down,” Shelcy said during the champagne toast. “I know we get a little serious on the ‘gram, more serious on the feed, kind of playful on the stories, but in real life, it’s just vibes.”

And with that, the champagne flowed and the dancing began. Second to the bubbly, the mezcal espresso martini (Shelcy’s suggestion) won over the crowd. Hotel Delmano may want to consider adding it to their menu; call it the NYCxEspresso Martini Special.
