Get on the boat! South Street Seaport was the place to be on Tuesday April 28th.

H&M has celebrated the Matthew Williamson with H&M Spring Summer 2009 Collection on on the Majesty, a 30,000 sq ft boat. The boat was crowded with celebs and models including Chanel Iman, Helena Christensen, Mary-Kate Olsen, Daria Werbowy and more. We spotted Cecilia Dean wearing leather and Rodarte shoes “you know me I won’t miss a Grace Jones performance and I love Matthew” the visionaire goddess said walking in.  We also met Kelly Killoren Bensimon almost joy jumping letting everyone know that her birthday will be held at “The Gate” on friday May 1st and warmed everyone to come “it will be my party, I would love Grace to come!” said the real housewife of  New York City.

Julia Restoin Roitfeld confessed that her mother would have loved the event “my mother loves matthew and Grace Jones is of her idole, they worked often together when Grace was engaged to Jean-Paul Goude”.

Grace Jones finally showed up around 11 am descending to the dance floor in a clear glass elevator, wearing a cape and a mask the shape of a butterfly.

The 80’s icone performed 4 songs  “Slave to the Rhythm”, “Pull up to the Bumper“, “La Vie En Rose”,“Williams’ Blood” and a track from her new album “Hurricane”. Patricia Field, Grace’s close friend was one of the other spotlight of the evening, dancing and singing whatching her friend performing.
