It was the official post-premiere party for Colette, the Keira Knightley-starrer about Belle Epoque-era feminist writer (and Nobel Prize nominee) known simply as Colette. Dominic West […]

Well guys, we did it. We survived (almost) the first week of TIFF, and believe me when I tell you nobody was more excited than everybody at Grey Goose Soho House on Tuesday night. Granted, it was generally a subdued excitement (we’re all adults here, people) with Room star Brie Larson and her glorious hair […]

See the Soho House party photos » Grey Goose’s annual TIFF takeover of Soho House kicked off last night in typically buzzy fashion, with a pre-premiere party of Nightcrawler, the crime drama starring Jake Gyllenhaal as a Ray Ban-wearing journo in 1950s L.A. Keeping track of an actor’s current look is all in the art […]

The shadowy main floor of Soho House had sunlight streaming in on Saturday afternoon for an earlier-than-usual start time to the day’s TIFF 2013 Grey Goose festivities. For the television obsessed, the You Are Here party was about as good as it gets: the film is Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner’s big screen debut and the stacked cast includes SNL alum Amy Poehler. In keeping with the girl power vibe we’ve come to know and love Poehler for, she spent most of the party seated in conversation with a large group of women—only when she got up to go to the bathroom did outsiders dare approach to sing her praises. (Two partygoers may or not have applied an excessive amount of lipstick in said bathroom in hopes of a at-the-sink meet cute to no success.)

Weiner, meanwhile, worked the room like a pro. His mingling was so on point—making sure to catch up with every VIP in the room—that I half expected him to come over and say hello. A girl can dream!

Also representing TV land was Lauren Lapkus—who’s part of the cast of Orange Is the New Black, dressed in an on-theme floral dress. But it was Laura Ramsey, flanked by her dapper designer boyfriend Greg Chait (of Elder Statesman), who won outfit of the night. Her all-black ensemble by Jenni Kayne consisted of perfectly tailored trousers and a top with sheer cap sleeves that were connected to a cape—very Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford at the Oscars. Basically: add “capes” to your fall shopping list now.

And in keeping its reputation alive as the place to be during TIFF, talent streamed in the doors of Soho House all night long despite no other official film parties being on the agenda. Sandra Bullock, fresh from the Venice Film Festival, made it her first destination after arriving in Toronto ahead of today’s Gravity premiere. Also in attendance were Dakota Fanning, Rachel McAdams, Jason Reitman and Susan Saradon. And Chris Hemsworth may have the best younger brother ever: Liam was spotted at Soho House last night which has us predicting that he’ll join Chris on the Rush red carpet tonight—just like he did last week in London.

Adolescent fantasy worlds nearly collided last night when Daniel Radcliffe aka Mr. Harry Potter himself and High School Musical’s Zac Efron attended back-to-back TIFF 2013 parties at Grey Goose Soho House. Radcliffe was there first to celebrate Horns, his Kafka-esque new film about a young man who starts growing horns after his girlfriend’s death; earlier in the day the star hammed it up on the red carpet in a devil headband. Grey Goose cocktails with festival-ready names like Torontini were passed around as Radcliffe and his beautiful blonde co-star Juno Temple posed for chummy photos by the fireplace before heading out into the night.

Efron arrived shortly after, looking dapper as ever in a slim-cut grey suit. The Disney heartthrob held court on a plush leather sofa in one corner with his Parkland co-stars Tom Welling, Paul Giamatti and Colin Hanks, the spitting image of his father Tom (seriously, it was like watching Big). It was clearly boys’ night out as the posse chatted and chowed down on quinoa salad together. Hanks was easiest to spot as he worked the room, basically towering over his costars who, like most actors, were all much smaller in real life.

Sunday night continued to prove that no matter what TIFF happenings are going on, it all comes back to the Grey Goose Soho House. At the onset of the evening, cast from both The Sessions and Byzantium stopped by before hitting the red carpet. Irish ingenue Saoirse Ronan and Gemma Arterton had dinner prior to the world premiere of their dark vampire flick Byzantium, while Helen Hunt, William H. Macy, John Hawkes and The Sessions director Ben Lewin mingled with friends.

A private party was held on the third floor for At Any Price, with Dennis Quaid, Clancy Brown and Maika Monroe in attendance. Considering that Maika Monroe’s The Bling Ring cast-mate Emma Watson was at Soho House the night before we had hoped for a repeat appearance, but alas, no luck. (Perhaps Emma Watson was off somewhere else, catching up with Daniel Radcliffe who’s also currently in Toronto filming The F Word? We can only dream!)
