It’s not every day that Kanye West gushes about anyone besides himself. “Rick proves for America that we can make real fashion,” Mr. West said onstage at Cipriani Wall Street, wearing a double-denim ensemble. He was joined by Kim Kardashian West in a figure-hugging, Jessica-Rabbit-on-date-night gown. Among the first to arrive at 6 p.m. was Grace Coddington, the longtime Vogue editor, wearing Louis Vuitton silk pajamas. But the 500 guests were still in place after 11 p.m., as Donna Karan accepted an award from Christy Turlington.
