The 2013 Tribeca Film Festival has come to a close! Bryce Dallas Howard and Ari Graynor helped finish out the 11-day-long festivities by toasting to their peers at the Tribeca Film Festival’s Women’s Filmmaker Brunch, held at Company 3 in New York City. The event also marked the first time the Annual Nora Ephron Prize was given out, which is a $25,000 grant awarded to a woman whose work embodies the spirit of the late author. First-time writer and director Meera Menon took home the honor for her work on Farah Goes Bang, a film about an awkward twenty-something girl who travels with friends to stump John Kerry’s 2004 campaign.

Designer Zac Posen hand-crafted a one-of-a-kind gown made with 24-karat gold thread to be featured in the movie, and celebrated his accomplishment with Andrea Riseborough at the Tribeca premiere. "What I took away from the ice cream was sort of the personal self-pleasure, the enjoyment, the happiness it brings. The movement of melting ice cream and gold and the richness of it," Posen told InStyle.com. "Plus, it’s fun to work with such a rare luxurious material!"
