"In the beginning there were the Greeks who brought the wheel, then the Romans arrived with their togas, and finally Brigitte Bardot, who never wore much at all."

This past weekend some of most famous and connected people of the international circuit arrived to party on Denise Rich's yacht until the early morning hours. Her party included an exclusive group of people such Adnan Khashoggi, surfer Laird Hamilton, Jimmy Choo, Tamara Mellon, Star Jones, Joan Collins, Eric Wachtmeister, Valentino, Steve O, Marc Rich, Ron Burkle, The parents of Mike Heller and sister Rachel Heller, Warren Lichtenstein, and Thomas Kramer.

The party consisted of not only three floors on a huge yacht with a full catered dinner, but also an outside area of a spinning rainbow room-like dance floor. The DJ wore a sequined bustier and a funky wig along with knee-high fishnet stockings. What a look! The party was also being broadcast for Parisian TV as the women arrived with their long gowns escorted by some of the sexiest men in the world.

The Cote D"azur attracts travelers from all over during the summer months. The rich and the famous dock their yachts along the port and people hop from boat to boat meeting and networking with the internationaljet setters and lunch at club 55.
