New York Fashion Week took on a meaningful twist on Friday, September 11, as RandomGood and the RandomGood Foundation hosted an intimate VIP dinner celebrating ocean conservation, creativity and the upcoming OCEAN DAYS festival in Paris.

Held at a private New York location, the evening brought together an intimate group of guests for cocktails, a multi-course dinner and an introduction to the mission behind OCEAN DAYS, a four-day celebration of ocean awareness and preservation taking place September 27–30 in Paris.

The evening also marked the public launch of The Floral Reef, a new nonprofit initiative created to raise awareness and support for the world’s coral reefs. Guests received a first look at a miniature floral installation by Kuration Studio, offering a preview of the full-scale Floral Reef installation planned for the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris.

Hosted by Randy Gebhardt, founder and CEO of the RandomGood Foundation and producer of THE LAST DIVE, the dinner featured a tasting menu inspired by Michelin-starred chef Austin Johnson, followed by an ocean-themed dessert experience from New York pastry chef Daniel Colonel.

Clase Azul was also part of the evening, while a curated silent auction featured pieces from Astrea London, Clase Azul and other partners, supporting ocean preservation initiatives through the RandomGood Foundation.

With fashion, art, food and philanthropy coming together under one roof, the evening offered a beautiful reminder that meaningful change can be celebrated in unforgettable ways. 🌊💙
