The theme of the night’s annual fundraiser, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Magnificence,” was devoted to the late designer, who died in 2019.

(The theme confronted important pushback from the style business as a result of Lagerfeld’s occasional problematic views. He was identified to make quips that had been misogynistic, racist and fatphobic.)
