Park Avenue Christian Church | Manhattan, NY

Int'l Legend NYC Father Haven Balenciaga and Icon NYC Father Yohon Tisci welcome you to The Sleek, Chic, and Ghetto Fabulous Ball. Where uptown edge meets downtown polish and every corner of New York City comes alive in full color.
This isn’t just an event, it’s a living, breathing love letter to NYC’s unmatched diversity. From runway rebels to ballroom legends, from street-style icons to high-fashion visionaries, this space celebrates art in all its forms and talent in every shade, shape, and story.
Expect the unexpected: bold looks, fearless expression, a little bit of glam, a little bit of grit, and a whole lot of attitude. It’s where elegance gets a remix, where culture takes center stage, and where being too much is exactly the point.
Because in New York, style has no rules and at Sleek, Chic, and Ghetto Fabulous, neither do we!
