On Wednesday night, Prada gathered the city’s most glamorous at Katz’s Deli for the kickoff of Prada Mode, its 14th edition of the roving cultural series. The beloved Lower East Side haunt was papered over in silver for the occasion and swapped its usual pastrami-enjoyers for the likes of Cole Escola, Allison Williams, Ella Emhoff, and Ziwe. Below, our fashion director Dara gives us a play-by-play of the night.

Met my sis Hunty at Katz Deli for the Prada Mode party. A New York institution! We both tried the Pastrami sandwich for the first time. I’ve lived in NYC 10 years and this is my first bite! Blasphemy! I know!
