PUNNED IT: When asked, shortly after she settled into her seat at the Prabal Gurung runway show at St. John’s Center on Saturday afternoon, if she was clad in the designer’s threads, Olivia Thirlby really went there. “Prabal-ly,” she cracked. “Sorry, that’s the joke I keep making. I can’t stop.” The actress was in good company, surrounded by fellow enthusiasts.
“I’m Prabal obsessed,” said Jaime King, also in a head-to-toe look from the designer. “He chooses the most fantastical structures; I feel like I’m in a dream when I wear his clothes.” Neighbor Analeigh Tipton had another take. “I feel strong when I’m in Prabal,” she said. “There’s no fragility to his clothes and I like that.” A few seats over, Elettra Wiedemann caught up with Caroline Issa and Lauren Remington Platt, while Lily Kwong greeted Bryanboy. Further down the line, half of the Courtin-Clarins quartet nestled into their seats. A bemused Sofia Sanchez Barrenechea couldn’t find hers. “Is it here?” she wondered aloud to no one in particular.
