• Isn't It Iconic?
  pa href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=13')"strongDavid Yurman/strong/a's international efforts have been at full force in the past few years, taking the American brand to China, Korea, and, as of Monday night's shop opening at the Printemps department store in Paris, to Europe. To help celebrate, a whole smattering of international fashion fans came out to show their support, from the Far East (actress Fan Bingbing) to the East Coast (photographer Peter Lindbergh). But David Yurman's favorite person? a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=13')"strongCatherine Deneuve/strong/a. "You can't get much more French than that!" The Yurmans' welcome to France wasn't entirely smooth sailing: Soon after landing, both David and his wife, a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=15')"strongSybil/strong/a, who founded the company three decades ago not long after marrying, got the flu, leaving them bedridden for much of the night. But with son Evan now taking over more and more of the business, the slack was picked up. And in addition to her son, Sybil had a little local help. "Tonight I've given myself an additional prescription: emmacarons/em," she said, munching on some of the goodies brought in from Ladureacute;e.br /br / From one side of the Seine to the other, the store party circuit continued. a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=22')"strongPete Doherty/strong/a, a man who's had a well-publicized dalliance or two with some of fashion's favorite faces, was playing a gig to celebrate the refurbishment of the Joseph store on Paris' Avenue Montaigne. The singer, who accessorized his look with some Chanel pins, hasn't lost his onstage charisma. "I definitely see it: He looks so boyish, and he's such a romantic. All his songs are about a girl," said a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=1')"strongTatiana Santo Domingo/strong/a, who had squeezed near the front with friends a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=4')"strongEugenie Niarchos/strong/a and a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=2')"strongJulia Restoin-Roitfeld/strong/a. "Although you should take him home and put him in the bath first," came a reply. Also appreciative was Suzy Menkes, standing smack-dab in front with a big smile on her face. "He was splendid," she said. (Apparently, the emInternational Herald Tribune/em fashion critic has been bitten by the live-music bug and is even thinking of hitting the festivals. "I asked her to come to Burning Man with me this year, and she said she would come if my grandmother did," a href="javascript:openSlideshow('/peopleparties/parties/slideshow/fashionweek-030910_Joseph_Opening_And_David_Yurman_Party/?iphoto=1')"strongMargherita Missoni/strong/a revealed. "Well, my grandmother said yes!") After the concert, Doherty and co. moved upstairs.
