Hordes of Victorian-inspired dandies and dolled-up partyers flocked to Dances of Vice: The Importance of Being Wilde on Saturday for a glittery tribute to Oscar Wilde. The witty writer’s influence on glam rock isn’t a new concept (hello, Velvet Goldmine!), and this party did the “godfather of glam” justice, with live music by Michael T & the Vanities and a special dance performance by Company XIV.
