Passerby near Lincoln Center Thursday night were brought to a grinding halt by the red carpet snaking across the main plaza, the likes of which one normally associates with Golden Globes-type awards ceremonies. In some ways, this wasn’t too far off a description of the occasion prompting such pomp and circumstance: the New York City Ballet Fall Gala, which this year chose to celebrate Valentino Garavani.
