READY FOR CLOSE-UP Bridget Helene

The socialite revolution is fully upon us, and make no mistake: it will be televised. At a "suicide awareness" party hosted last night by Kristian Laliberte, the paunchy P.T. Barnum of the fashion publicity set, no less than four cameramen turned out to document the proceedings. A sign outside the soirée—held at the Upper East Side apartment of former Dalton English chair Anisha Lakhani—alerted partygoers that, by entering, they were consenting to have footage of their appearance used for "TV production purposes." Not that most attendees seemed to mind. For most of the evening, a team from Disney filmed guests (clad head-to-toe in white, as per the party's invite) sipping Chardonnay and munching on grapes for a reality show titled The Fashionista Diaries, slated to air on the SOAPnet this summer.
