Henrietta Conrad Breakfast at Barneys A group of nearly 40 lucky fashionistas attended a private breakfast and shopping event on April 3 at Barneys New York at Copley Place to support the Perkins school. Guests were treated to a presentation by Barneys New York creative ambassador Simon Doonan and fashion director Tomoko Ogura, who both helped shoppers select pieces from the latest collections. Barneys New York donated $15,000 in proceeds from the event to the Perkins organization, which educates students who are blind or deaf-blind. A Silver Celebration It started with a trip to Mexico City, where Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams met the city's hottest DJ duo, Tom & Collins. Gold and Williams knew they had to fly the music-spinners to Boston to be the star entertainment for their furniture brand's 25th anniversary party at their Boston Signature Store on April 25. The event, which was attended by 700 people, raised more than $7,500 for the Pine Street Inn. The night included a raffle with lucky winners bringing home a $5,000 Mitchell Gold shopping spree, framed photography, and pieces of furniture. Guests enjoyed cocktails and wine, an elaborate food spread catered by Max Ultimate Food, and an amazing cake replica of the company's iconic Too Sexy Sadie Chair. BOSTONCOMMON-MAGAZINE.COM 33 INVITED
