Everyone loves them, everyone hates them, and everyone wants to be in them. Since we will most likely never make the pages of Vanity Fair, we have taken matters into our own hands. As part of our ongoing Society Pages, we present you with...An Evening at the Ace Hotel in New York City. ACE_fronttable The ReadyMade crew was out in full force on Thursday night at the brand new Ace Hotel in New York City, taking over the lobby and bar area for two hours (or maybe a little more…), drinking PorkSlap and causing a general ruckus. ACE_porkslap Notice the pigs high-fiving. It's that good. We chatted, we laughed, we shared secrets and even interrupted a studier or two. (Now THAT’s dedication.) ACE_study With over 160 friends that showed up, we were well over capacity but that made no difference to us. ACE_mikeperry RM’s Adam Holt and graphic designer/illustrator/art director Mike Perry.

Thank you to everyone for making this such a special night and a special issue, we couldn't have done it without you. ACE_table Dear Ace Hotel NYC: Thank you for hosting us—we had an absolute blast.
