For the In Style and Warner Brothers party, Thomas Ford of Tom Ford Designs constructed a tent over the Beverly Hilton Hotel fountain and transformed the venue into a space meant to evoke a futuristic galaxy where DJ Michelle Pesce spun for the crowd. 

The indoor-outdoor event, overseen by HBO’s Cindy Tenner and designed by Billy Butchkavitz, filled the pool deck and adjoining restaurant space with decor Butchkavitz said was inspired by an early 1930s movie set design by Cedric Gibbons. The Old Hollywood musical’s look inspired the party’s topaz and gold color palette.

Tony Schubert and Event Eleven again designed and produced the Audi party, this year incorporating themes of mid-century modern and abstract art. Decor had a palette of black, white, and grey with pops of yellow.
