As pastel dresses and tailored suit-clad guests poured into the chic lobby of the AC Hotel, they were whisked away, up 13 floors, to the flower-filled penthouse level known as Ciel Social Club. The fanciful lounge is encased by glass doors, which opened to reveal warm summer evening air, a setting sun, and a sky filled with hues of pink, and purple. With a recent win for ‘Best Rooftop In DC’, as voted by Modern Luxury DC readers, Ciel Social Club was the lavish location for Modern Luxury DC’s 2022 Best of City event.
The winners of the list, from ‘Best DC Hair Salon’ to ‘Best Personal Trainer and every category in between, gathered on Tuesday, August 30, to celebrate their wins with Modern Luxury editors, publicists, and members of DC’s social elite.
Sponsored by Veuve Clicquot, the party was flowing with champagne and bubbly-filled cocktails, as well as Veuve-orange party decor and a Veuve Clicquot photo booth. Guests and list winners were treated to colorful sushi from Ciel’s kitchen and a table-long charcuterie board, in addition to bite-sized appetizers.
