Last Night in the East Village, Jonathan Anderson and Ssense Hosted a Late-Night Bash

Last night in New York City, Northern Irish fashion designer Jonathan Anderson and Montreal-based retailer Ssense joined forces to celebrate the highly anticipated launch of the JW Anderson Bumper Hike Sneaker Collection. And the trendy Boiler Room, nestled in the heart of NYC’s East Village, was the location for the late-night bash.

It’s rare that a fashion party starts at 9 PM—and on a weeknight no less!—but the time signaled one thing, that this was a party. On the impressive guest list were industry insiders and notable tastemakers: the fabulous Dominique Jackson, the ever-charming Jemima Kirke,  the talented Zachary Quinto, renowned photographer Craig McDean, the stylish Deon Hinton, and the trendsetting Kemio also joined in the revelry. To heighten the ambiance, the crowd was treated to DJ sets by the dynamic duo Fashion LaBeija and Word of Command before things eventually wound down.

Although the party came and went, the excitement is far from over. The JW Anderson Bumper Hike Sneaker Collection will be available in the fall of 2023 on JWAnderson.com and at Ssense. Mark your calendars!
