    Amex Celebrated Its Platinum Card With a Night of Caviar and a Secret Olivia Rodrigo Concert

    On Oct. 23, American Express toasted the next era of its Platinum Card with a two-part New York affair beginning at Le Bilboquet, where guests sipped cocktails while enjoying the caviar bar. Attendees were then whisked to the Park Avenue Armory for an intimate performance by Olivia Rodrigo. There, Rodrigo stripped down her biggest hits, offering acoustic takes on “deja vu” and “good 4 u” that turned what could have been akin to a pop spectacle into something closer to a salon set. It was the kind of New York night that merged fashion, music, and membership into one seamless tableau. Notables in attendance included Kelsey Merritt, Patrick Ta, Ashley Park, Nina Dobrev, Molly Gordon, Tyler Lain, Jeremiah Brent, and more.
