In the old song by Ricky Nelson, a “garden party” symbolized a moment of personal transformation.
Nelson, a former teen idol who grew up to be an adult, sang, “When I got to the garden party… No one recognized me/ I didn’t look the same.”
Model Chiara Espineli experiences her own garden party dressed in fashionable white at the Tarrywile Mansion in Danbury, Conn.
Will any of her friends recognize her now?
