The Orchid Dinner is an annual event in New York, sponsored by the New York Botanical Garden (and this year in collaboration with House & Garden magazine).
For anyone who loves flowers, or even likes flowers, it’s a fantastic evening of natural beauty and human creativity. This year 30 designers an names from the worlds of fashion, architecture, horticulture, literature, film and food created a theatrical setting of orchid table designs in the Rainbow Room high above Rockefeller Center.
The evening was chaired by that priestess of beautiful interior design (and beautiful life-style), Dominique Browning, the editor-in-chief of HG, along with Fernanda Kellogg, President of the Tiffany & Company foundation, and Joan Khoury, Managing Director of the Bank of New York.
Honorary Chairs for the evening were Mr and Mrs. Philip Miller. The Gala chairs were Mr. and Mrs. Eric Fast and Mrs. and Mrs. Robert Graham Jr. Decorations Chair was Charlotte Frieze, Garden Editor of House & Garden.
The gala benefited the New York Botanical Garden’s orchid collections and scientific research, which fosters better understanding and conservation of these precious jewels of the plant kingdom. |
