Karlie Kloss and Wes Gordon marked forty-five years of Carolina Herrera this week with a party staged at Mortimer's, the long-shuttered Lexington Avenue restaurant that once defined Upper East Side social life. For one night the closed dining room reopened its doors, borrowed back into service for a house whose entire reputation was built on that same uptown polish. It is the kind of venue choice that says as much as any gown on the guest list.

With reporting from Vogue.
