Ronn Vigh

Wearing a fur and sequin coat from the collection of Mary Van Note, and a suede fringe necklace from the collection of Molly Schminke.

Ronn, a former writer for Fashion Police, went on stage and performed jokes he would've written for Joan Rivers had she been there that night to perform.  The crowd loved it.  Later he brought out host Mary Van Note and the two of them did a mock Fashion Police segment with real jokes that Ronn wrote for the show, and Mary telling the ones that were rejected in front of a slideshow of celebrity red carpet photos.  It was the highlight of Feathers & Filth: A Tribute to Joan Rivers.
