When asked what lifts her spirits, Holly Golightly—the drifting heroine of Truman Capote’s 1958 novella Breakfast at Tiffany’s—tells her equally adrift neighbor: “What I’ve found does the most good is just to get into a taxi and go to Tiffany’s. It calms me down right away, the quietness and the proud look of it. Nothing very bad could happen to you there.”

In the six decades since Capote wrote those words, both Manhattan and Tiffany & Co. have changed dramatically. Yet the allure of America’s greatest jewelry house endures. That sense of magic feels even more palpable today, following the sweeping renovation of its flagship—now known simply as The Landmark—helmed by architect Peter Marino.

Last night, the maison hosted an intimate dinner to celebrate its HardWear collection campaign featuring artist Anna Weyant. Inspired by the strength and pulse of New York, Tiffany HardWear reimagines a 1962 design meant to convey love’s resilience. The Landmark’s terrace, with its panoramic views of the city and Central Park, served as an impeccable backdrop.

Specialty cocktails circulated as guests mingled and posed for photographs. A propulsive soundtrack curated by Ruby Aldridge lent an electric charge to the evening. Unsurprisingly, many sparkled in the house’s signature jewels: Alexander Roth adorned the lapel of his dark suit with Jean Schlumberger’s iconic Flames Brooch; Pre-Raphaelite beauty Karen Elson draped a gold HardWear link necklace over her seafoam green frock; Phoebe Gates opted for a bolder take on the same chain, rendered in white gold and pavé diamonds.

A long table dressed with white lilies stretched across the limestone terrace. At each place setting: a monogrammed napkin, a hand-painted menu, and a little blue box. Inside—discovered sooner rather than later by the less patient among the crowd—a delicate HardWear necklace shimmered in the candlelight.

Weyant, of course, is widely regarded as one of the most compelling American artists working today. Downstairs, her work hangs alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat, Damien Hirst, Julian Schnabel, and Rashid Johnson in Tiffany’s private collection. As novelist Emma Cline once observed: “The paintings of Anna Weyant evoke a certain airless time of day: 5 p.m., the house still, the air going stale, the silver starting to cast off reflections from the lights. Composure with tension building underneath, an edge, like someone clearing their throat in a silent room. There is the quality of waiting, as in the opening scenes of a fairy tale.”

Weyant, her diamonds catching the light against a black shift from The Row, held court between actresses Chase Sui Wonders and Laura Harrier. Harrier radiated old-Hollywood glamour in an embroidered blue gown, while Sui Wonders—the modern-day scream queen whose upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer promises thrills for fans of the original ’90s slasher—wore a demure dark cocktail dress. Behind the trio, the setting sun shattered across the roof of The Plaza.

Diners savored a seasonal menu curated by renowned chef Daniel Boulud, featuring elegant courses—salade d’artichaut, a delicate fillet of fish, and a sweet raspberry confection—that delighted both palate and eye. Throughout the evening, glasses were topped with chilled Ruinart Blanc de Blancs, created especially for Tiffany & Co.
