The scent of cigarette smoke wafting down Sixth Avenue announced that the Myth Magazine party was nearby on Saturday evening around 9:30 p.m. The venue, downtown hot spot Holiday Bar, has hosted many a fashion party since opening a few years ago — but the outdoor sidewalk terrace that served as a smoking section surely had to be what made it the venue of choice.

Myth Magazine editor in chief, stylist Haley Wollens, and needs-no-introduction Chlo? Sevigny were hosting a party to celebrate the launch of the magazine. Slogans like “fashion is a performance,” “magazines are a myth” and “I’m not like the other magazines” were on display inside the restaurant, which had been cleared of its tables to enable dancing.

Addison Rae, Natasha Lyonne, Coco Gordon Moore, Tyrell Hampton, Rebecca Dayan and Rowan Blanchard were in attendance, as was Wollens’ mother, plus other members of the downtown and aspirationally downtown set. 1980s synth blended into ’90s hip-hop overhead, electronic roses glowing red were strewn across tables and restaurant owner Kyle Hotchkiss Carone wove his way through the room transporting a bottle of Body vodka.

“I think it’s important to have a really epic New York magazine that’s capturing what’s happening in New York on the streets. New York fashion is not really recognized in a broader sense,” Sevigny said of the magazine. “There is so much here, there is so much energy, so many cool kids, so inclusive and diverse, and I feel like the world doesn’t really recognize New York in a real legit way, and Haley is trying to be like ‘we need to be recognized.’ Youth, the diversity, the sexiness, the energy, the fun, the humor. There’s a lot of humor [in New York] and Haley has a great sense of humor and the magazine is all about that.”
