The party took place at Fotografiska New York, a branch of the Swedish photography museum bearing the same name, inside the famed Church Missions House. This historic building, at 281 Park Avenue in New York‘s Flatiron District, was recently featured in the hit Netflix series “Inventing Anna.” Looking at these photos, this party definitely fits the luxurious, exclusive vibe the character Anna Delfey was striving for at her social club, ADF.
