WELCOME TO THE AFTER PARTY —

Hysteria is exactly what it sounds like—it’s a place invented for debauchery. While the polished and prestigious professionals have stayed at The Whitney in order to close Fashion Week, the most scandalous of Manhattan’s elite have made their way over to the club that has slowly but steadily taken over the nightlife of the city. And at the height of the party, while champagne is flowing and the partygoers are entertaining themselves—

They hear it.

There is no warning, no slow build. Phones begin to vibrate and chirp, all set off at the exact same time. It’s a moment that reminds many of their days at high school, and it’s all due to that very faint but very familiar panic that they all reach for their phone and open the message.

HEY, UPPER EAST SIDERS. GOSSIP GIRL HERE...

IT’S ONE OF THE MOST CELEBRATED TIMES OF THE YEAR, when white tents explode from the ground up and the streets of New York are lined with models, designers, and agents. It’s time for New York Fashion Week and it’s not surprising to see that everyone has taken the opportunity to revel in excess. Front row seats to some of the most coveted shows, catching new talent on the runway before the journalists and the tabloids have caught their names, and parties lasting until well after the sun comes up.

This is not the poised and prestigious time of political galas and charity balls. Fashion Week is about innovation and edge, the time to throw tradition out the window, and everyone is allowed to get their hands just a little dirty. The Upper East Side thrives off of chaos, and after a whole week of stress and perfection, something is bound to blow.

OOC DETAILS.

Welcome to our first event —

This will be used as our kickoff, where members can plot and get to know each other before we officially open for interactions tomorrow when we post our first plot drop. Many of our cast will be reuniting after time spent apart, while others will be returning to the city for the first time in years, so there is plenty of room for drama!

The event will be starting off right at the end of Fashion Week. Cavanaugh Couture has just closed the week with their final show at The Whitney Hotel. There will be a party in the hotel’s lounge where journalists, designers, guests, and models can put their best face forward. Later on, there will be a less-professional after-party at Hysteria.

Remember —

We are not yet open for interactions yet. We want to give time for our members to plot and get to know each other, so we will be giving you all time to do so before we open with our first ever plot drop that will be posted after the second round of acceptances!

Important Details —

WILLOW will be hosting an after-party (an after-after-party, as it’s been dubbed) at Hysteria in Cavanaugh Couture’s name. Anyone who is anyone has been invited, although crashers are always an added bonus.

ALEXANDRIA has made their return to New York City by walking for WINONA & CO. earlier in the week. They plan to announce their “relationship” with ASHER at the after-party at Hysteria.

NATHAN and FRANCESCA have made their public debut as a married couple at the start of Fashion Week, and the party at the Whitney will be their first official appearance at an event—everyone who has scores to settle will be looking out for them to slip up.

JULES has been using Fashion Week as the way to begin their research for the exposé on Manhattan’s elite. Her eyes are wide open to look out for any secrets they can use.

Plotting & Threads —

This is our grand opening, so be sure to come in with a bang! Feel free to plot with members, get to know each other, and get ready!

Threads for this event can take place at any point of the night, whether it is during the party at the Whitney, at Hysteria, or even before the fashion show itself. If you have any questions about your character that you would like to clear up before interactions begin, feel free to drop a DM on Discord.

This is the first time so many people from the same social circle will be in the same place at the same time in years, and there are many reunions waiting to happen, so get creative with it!

Timestamps —

In the roleplay, this event will take place on SEPTEMBER 13, 2021.
