VMAN Exclusive: Evan Mock’s Dior Guggenheim International Pre-Gala Photo Diary

The 21-year-old photographer took VMAN to the annual Guggenheim International Gala.

In a collision of art and fashion, glameratti flocked under the Guggenheim’s Frank Lloyd Wright-designed rotunda for the annual Dior Guggenheim International Pre-Gala this week. In collaboration with Dior, the high-class evening included an electrifying performance by French singer Christine and the Queens, who commanded all attention with intensified choreography and powerhouse vocals. Amidst her sequence, Christine, born Héloïse Létissier, commanded the entire museum for “Intranquilité” as she expressed vulnerability in a solo dance routine. Guests mingled and enjoyed the night’s festivities as a DJ set by musician Caroline Polachek followed Christine as the evening’s soundtrack into the night.

In natural accord, the gala drew a star-studded crowd including pop star Maggie Rogers, it-girl Olivia Palermo, actresses Nina Dobrev and Eiza Gonzalez, and DJ Vashtie among others. Photographer Evan Mock captured each stage of the elegant celebration and shared with us an exclusive diary of his night to remember. Follow on Mock’s journey below.

If I have 3 different color lights does that mean I have 3 different rooms? It’s a NY life hack to make it seem like my place is bigger than it really is.
