Celebrity-Spotting with Iman at New York Fashion Week

Fashion Week is always a star-studded affair. During previous seasons, Everything She Wants has seen a smattering of celebs at various shows including actress Gabourey Sidibie in the front row at Christian Siriano; legendary hip-hop duo Salt-N-Pepa at Carmen Marc Valvo; and former "America's Next Top Model" staples Miss Jay Alexander (runway coach extraordinaire), Jay Manuel (art director and makeup maven) and Nigel Barker (noted fashion photographer), and a gaggle of "Real Housewives" pretty much everywhere.

And of course, there was the time we got a glimpse of Anna Wintour's signature bob as she whizzed into the Tents at Bryant Park.

But the stars were literally aligned in one place for the Spring/Summer 2013 season, where we spotted several fashion industry A-listers at the launch of supermodel Iman's travel website, Destination IMAN. Looking absolutely fabulous and flawless in a form-fitting, black leather cut-out dress, Iman held court with designers Rachel Roy, Chris Benz and Rachel Zoe; author and fashion commentator Simon Doonan; top model and social media maven Coco Rocha; and stylists June Ambrose and Robert Verdi at the swanky event at the Dream Downtown Hotel.

While we didn't learn much about Destination IMAN -- her upcoming site dedicated to her travels and how they relate to the worlds of fashion, beauty and lifestyle -- we had a great time drinking way too much champagne and star gazing. Plus, we went home with a stylish I-Pad case (if only we had an I-Pad) and a lovely shade of burgundy lipstick ("Black Brandy") from Iman Cosmetics.
