Some of fashion's biggest stars – including Bryan Boy, Stephen Jones, Coco Rocha and Lisa Rinna – gathered in the midst of Couture Week to toast Swedish eyewear designer Anna-Karin Karlsson. See all the glamorous and raucous party moments below

Last night, after dashing from show to show in the captivating chaos that is Couture Week, fashion's brightest stars lit up Parisian hotspot Caviar Kaspia. The occasion? To toast renowned Swedish eyewear designer Anna-Karin Karlsson and her new crystal-encrusted collection.

As guests gathered around a candle-lit blue-clothed table, dotted with Karlsson's gilded clamshell glasses cases, couture connoisseurs (and best friends) Fredrik Robertsson and Sylvia Mantella held court with a star-studded crew including the likes of supermodel Coco Rocha, legendary milliner Stephen Jones, style savant BryanBoy and all-round icon Lisa Rinna.

After salmon, caviar, and a dessert of berries and cream, came vodka shots and rivers of Champagne – followed by high kicks from Rinna and a surprise performance by burlesque queen Miss Allanah Star. The revellers continued into the night to the DJ's tunes – luckily they left with Karlsson's sunglasses in tow, to shade any bleary eyes sitting front row at today's runway shows.
