Pharrell, who proved he is worthy of InStyle's Man of Style nod with his full Lanvin look, was one of the night's musical performers and took to the stage to perform a few of his hits including "Get Lucky." "We're saving lives tonight," he said to the crowd. "If you do what you have to do tonight, then nobody has to get lucky." The benefit—whose star-studded guest list included Hugh Jackman, his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, Tommy Hilfiger, Donna Karan and the jeweler behind Kim Kardashian's 15-carat stunner, Lorraine Schwartz—held a live and online auction that included a Marc Quinn painting, five nights in Dubai, and earrings from Schwartz's Harlequin Collection, which sold for $90,000. The night carried on with a moment of silence where each table lit candles to remember those who have fallen victim to cancer. Now that's a special night!
