The Metropolitan Museum of Art held its 2009 Corporate Benefit on Wednesday night. The honorees were Michael J. Kowalksi, chairman and chief executive of some non-WendyB jewelry place, and my dear friend, Ambassador Carl Spielvogel. (Carl is married to the gorgeous Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel, previously mentioned here.) I wore the beautiful Zang Toi gown that I wore in February to the Vanity Fair Oscar party. I figured that the East Coast needed to see the ass-flower gown; the West Coast can’t have all the fun!
Before heading outWe got to view the new American Wing, which was recently reopened with Michelle Obama there to cut the ribbon. At dinner, I had a lovely time talking to my tablemate, Ralph Appelbaum, who designs (non-art) museums, including the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington and the Planetarium here in New York.
Ass flowers at the museum

I loved that the charming security guard we met on the way out was named Aramis, after one of the three Musketeers.
Aramis kindly posed for a picture

Increase your word power: ass flowers – Exclamation as in “oh ass flowers! I forgot to put the champagne in the fridge, or “I work out every day” – “Ass flowers you do you fat bastard”

That dress is gorgeous and you look fabulous in it. You always look like you’re having such a good time in these photos, I love it!

You’re too cute Wendy B. TOO cute.
the color of your dress is gorgeous – and the ass flowers are pretty briliant and lovely as well. lovely!
wow your dress is amazing!!! you look absolutely beautiful
Wendy, how did the ass flowers go over, though!!!! This is my favorite dress of all time, btw, and I want Mr. B to hire the MOST amazing painter to paint you in it and hang you over the mantel from here to eternity. I'd have posed with Aramis too. I do stuff like that.
My word verfification says, "AS es fri!" You givin' it away in that dress?
ahh i love that dress on you!
xx-LJ from SOS!
Wow! Love those butt bows! LOL!
ugh i want ass flowers.
I love the idea of this dress, and it’s hilarious that you call them ass flowers. Because I suppose that’s what they are! I love that first picture of you– you look so happy and bouyant!
Perfection!
Gorgeous, this dress and you outshone most of what was seen at the Costume “muse” gala! Particularly love the individual statue shot.
And hmm, Aramis, perhaps I should be delving into the classics for names. Although I bet d’Artagnan will go the way of Cher with my husband.
U look absolutely stunning in this dress! <33
“Ass flowers are in bloom, and make the perfect gift for your gal…”
I find this too elegant to call ass flower, perhaps “les fleurs des derriere”? Gorgeous!
the dress looks AMAZING.
that dress is sooooooooooo pretty! lovely color on you!
What a pretty dress! I like how in the front it's all demure and then in the back it's HELLO! ass flowers! lol
Oh, WendyB, what a rug you cut, honey! That pose beside the sculpture is so fine. Mr. B looks splendid, too. I'm so happy that y'all had a good time!
