Sex And The City actress Sarah Jessica Parker was one of the stars helping launch Chanel's unusual fashion-meets-art project in the Big Apple this week. The blonde actress was one of the first visitors to pay a visit to the space-age exhibition space which has touched down in Central Park after stints in Hong Kong and Japan.

Also exploring the huge white UFO structure - which is packed with artwork inspired by Chanel's iconic quilted handbag - were British New York resident Agyness Deyn and her other half, The Strokes musician Albert Hammond Jr. The couple - who have been dating since June - have yet to comment on reports they've secretly become engaged.

Artistic director at Chanel and the man behind the mobile exhibition, Karl Largerfeld, was also on hand at the bash. The shell-like building - which takes a month to install - next heads off to London, Moscow and finally Paris.
