BELLA Magazine celebrated its 3rd annual Beauty of Pride Issue, hosted by BELLA CEO/EIC, Vanessa Coppes, and cover star, designer, actor, and TV personality, Carson Kressley. The event took place during Pride Month in New York City at Space 54 in Midtown, Manhattan. Carson hit the red carpet just before a drag performance by BELLA’s own Beauty Correspondent, Roman, along with drag queens, Paris Filter and Bella Noche. Guests sipped on Prosecco DOC and enjoyed light bites, courtesy of Space 54, while dancing to the sounds of DJ Spin Diesel. BELLA Brand Partner, Desert Harvest, shared product samples at their pop-up, along with information on their latest initiative with The Kinsey Institute, in support of the LGBTQIA+ community. Guests also took home swag bags filled with a full skincare line by RAF FIVE, beauty products from KISS, and styling tools from Wet Brush.
