Remember those "recession-proof" boozy dance party brunches that were so popular with investment bankers and Europeans a few years back?
The two main culprits, rival Meatpacking district clubs Merkato 55 and Bagatelle, have since closed, but now the party has moved to Midtown.
Lavo, an Italian steakhouse in the East 50s that turns into a nightclub after hours, kicked off its "F**k the Hamptons: Bikini Brunch" two weeks ago and while we were pretty skeptical that anyone would actually show up sans shirt, the photos prove otherwise.
Guest of a Guest shared some photos of last week's party with us, so you can decide for yourself whether the party looks fun enough to keep you away from the beach this weekend.
