The preshow dinner reception was held inside BAM’s Lepercq Space, which Fleurs Bella gussied up with a bedazzled, campy, Anna Nicole-worthy display of crystals, disco balls, marabou, and animal prints.

Dinner tables were laden with costume jewelry, pink roses, and feathers. At their seats, guests found a hot pink gift box filled with a few of Anna Nicole’s favorite things, such as barbecue sauce, chocolate hearts, and lip gloss.

At the after-party, Great Performances decorated the dessert table to look like a boudoir. The menu was written on mirrors in red lipstick, jewelry boxes and glass jars overflowed with candy, and Lucite displays held cones of pink cotton candy.

The post-show party's entertainment, inspired by Smith's tawdry strip-club beginnings, included a performance from "pole acrobat" Rian Schaible of Phoenix Entertainment NYC.

Guests could dress up in wigs, tiaras, boas, and other Smith-inspired props, as well as pose in a photo booth complete with a painted backdrop of flashing paparazzi bulbs.
