Inside The White Cross Ball, Uptown's Most Sophisticated Charity Soirée

Could there be any more elegant a way to spend a Friday evening than dining and dancing at a Gilded Age club on the Upper East Side?

Ever the sophisticated soirée, this year's White Cross Ball certainly did not disappoint.

Chaired by Mercedes de Guardiola, Michael Espiritu, and Jason Pelletier, along with honorary patron H.I.R.H. Archduke Géza von Habsburg-Lothringen, the black tie evening raised funds for a number of the Order of Malta's international humanitarian works.

Social staples sipped on Whispering Angel and Rémy Martin 1738 during cocktail hour, generously bid on luxury experiences during a lively post-dinner auction, and spun the night away on the dance floor to the tunes of DJ Chelsea Leyland.
