On Saturday night, Wendy Williams and more hit the streets of NYC to attend the L’HOMMAGE BALL hosted by Andre Leon Talley and Sandra Bernhard.

According to the event page for L’Hommage, the event was a night of Celebration, Unity and Love organized by Fabulous Independent Educated Radicals for Community Empowerment (FIERCE), a community organization for LGBTQ youth, to celebrate the NYC Ballroom Community, Fashion and Social Justice.

In a special tribute for the event, American couturier Ralph Rucci will create original pieces for Icons of fashion and the Ballroom community to walk proudly for the vibrance, brilliance and love in our communities. The legends who were featured at the event were a combination of fashion icons, leaders of gay houses that support at risk, and homeless LGBTQ youth.

Wendy was joined by the likes of Bevy Smith, Dominique Jackson (POSE), Miss Lawrence (Star), Luke James (Star), and the legendary Naomi Campbell. Get into some of the snaps and footage from the night.

“Elegance, “ I said, “is refusal,” so saith Diana Vreeland,the Delphic oracle; I was reading from her book Allure onstage at the Fierce benefit at #Judson Memorial Church tonight with my friends—the iconic and legendary house mothers, fathers and founders of the houses of style. Yours truly co-hosted with Sandra Bernhard. Surprise guest was of course the incandescent #NaomiCampbell who WALKED THE BALL in #Alaia custom little black dress. L’hommage raised money to benefit the LGBTQ+ community. Ralph Rucci dressed the icons in all black shimmering version of his signature @ralphrucci couture looks. The breakout MOMENT was the DJ Vjuan Allure. The entire evening in the Stanford White edifice, erected in 1877, was a true spiritual and cultural requiem of love to the community that gives so much in 2019 to the global manifestation! It was indeed a night to remember forever.I knew Jose Extravaganza as a teen and has always been Fierce. I love Giselle ALICIA Extravaganza so much in this black faille hommage to Charles James by Ralph who loaned his vast Elsa Peretti collection like silver bud vases necklaces. #scadfash#sandrabernhard #throwbackthursday #tonnegoodman #leedaniels #tiffanyhaddish #derekblasberg . .#ndukaobaigbena #tracieellisross #fierce #tamronhall #tamarbraxton .#scad #Vogue #MarcJacobs #alaia @bethannhardison @themarcjacobs @wendyshow @naomi campbell#kimkardashian #kanyewest @carlynecerfdedudzeele @tomford @pose @ @kimkardashian @Kanye west @cher @mikabrzezinski @arimelber @bevysmith @ruthlaferla @giancarlogiammetti @carlossouza1311 @pppiccioli @tamronhall #tamronhall@carlynecerfdedudzeele#tomford#bevysmith#dapperdan#bethannhardison.#Diana Vreeland.
