Each year we tally up the latest trends from the red carpet and give you the must-haves for the year’s Bar Bat Mitzvah fashion.
This year, we profiled nine girls and boys who recently had their Bar and Bat Mitzvahs and asked them what they wore, why they wore it, and how it made them feel.
Who: Chloe Cornell
Where: Old Oaks Country Club, Purchase, NY.
Theme: Since Chloe’s initials are CC, and she loves fashion, her theme was
“Chanel.”
Dress Inspiration: “Keira Knightly in her wedding dress; a white tulle
strapless dress with an A line skirt to the knee designed by Karl Lagerfeld.”
Personal Touch: Chloe added a rhinestone and pearl belt to add a little
sparkle and “Chanel” detail.
In Her Shoes: For the service, Chloe wore white flats with a black tip and
pearls on the heel. For the party, she changed into white sneakers with
flower cut outs.
Jewelry: In honor of her Bat Mitzvah, her parents gave Chloe a gold bracelet.
Family Matters: The party colors were black and white with gold accents so
mom Kim wore a black gown; Chloe’s dad and brother wore black suits,
white shirts and black and white striped ties.

Who: Sydney Cohn
Where: Basking Ridge Country Club in Basking Ridge, NJ.
Fashion Statement: An ivory party dress with a jeweled
bodice by Terani Couture from It’s Simply For You.
Theme: The budding fashionista chose a high heel theme
in black, white, hot pink, and lime.
Footwear: For pictures, Sydney wore a pair of Vince Camuto silver YSL Tribute inspired shoes. She then changed into Ash silver
glitter sneakers for the party.
Sentimental Jewelry: A Tiffany diamond solitaire
necklace, which was one of the favorite gifts she
received.
Family Matters: Mom Lori wore a jumpsuit at the nighttime kids’ party, while dad carried the theme in a pink and white shirt. Sydney’s little sister wore a hot pink leather dress to celebrate her sister’s big day.

Who: Mason Gruber
Where: Temple Isaiah in Stonybrook, NY, for the service and Temple
Chavarim for the party.
Theme: “Mason Nation,” incorporating his and his dad’s love of the Pittsburgh
Steelers.
Cool Couture: A classic black tuxedo was paired with a yellow tie, a nod to
the Steeler colors. Black dress shoes completed the look.
Fan Out: “My best friend gave me a Steelers bow tie that I changed into for
the party.”
Family Matters: All of the men in Mason’s family wore black tuxedos and
yellow ties, including his dad, grandpa, great uncle, uncle and cousin. Mom
Beth wore head to toe black.

Who: Molly Steinberg
Where: A Havdalah service and party were held at Club Infinity in Purchase,
NY.
Theme: The family took their late October date and cleverly wove Molly’s
name into the theme to make “Molloween.”
Fashion Statement: Molly’s whimsical white and ice blue ball gown was
custom made and ordered online, sight unseen. Long gloves, small diamond
studs, and a crystal tiara completed the look.
Something Borrowed: To make the day even more special, Mom Lainee gave
her daughter a pendant to wear for the occasion, which she wore on a satin
blue ribbon.
Sole Mates: Instead of heels, Molly wore white converse high tops. “We
handed out monster-slippers during the party for everyone. It was a huge hit
and very comfortable.”
Dress Code: Costume attire preferred, and 99% of the guests dressed up!
Celebrity Inspiration: “We researched every celebrity Halloween party we
could and took elements from each.”

Who: Sarah Cassuto
Where: Temple Sholom in Greenwich, CT, and party at Club Infinity in
Purchase, NY.
Fashion Statement: Sarah chose a light blue ball gown with a jeweled bodice
that complimented her red hair. “The dress just made me feel happy.”
Theme: “Camp Sarah,” since Sarah is a camper at Nock-a-Mixon, and the
date was a week before camp started.
Fancy Feet: Sparkly silver high tops kept Sarah’s feet comfy all night.
Family Matters: Sarah’s dad and brother wore black suits, while mom Wendi
wore a floor length halter ball gown.
Dress Code: Cocktail attire.
Fun Fact: The light blue and purple invitations (handmade by Sarah’s aunt
and mom) matched the blue of Sarah’s dress

Who: Isabella Goldberg
Where: Her service was at Temple Beth Am in Merrick, NY, and the party
was at Love Club in Carle Place, NY.
Tasty Theme: Because Bella loves to bake cupcakes, the family drew
inspiration from Baked by Melissa and created “Baked by Bella.”
Best Dressed: The pink ombre gown was a reflection of her personality
— beautiful, vibrant, and happy. The color was so striking that the “Baked by
Bella” logo was created to match her dress from It’s Simply For You.
Treasured Gift: A white gold Hamsa/Star of David necklace given to her by
her grandparents as a Bat Mitzvah present.
Dress Code: Cocktail attire.
DIY Shoes: Bella wore one-of-a-kind bedazzled shoes that she created
herself.
Fashion inspiration: “Julie Chen, Big Brother, baby!”

Who: Ethan Berman
Where: Temple Emanu-El of Westfield, NJ, and Crystal Plaza, Livingston, NJ.
Theme: In lieu of a candle lighting, Ethan was the host of the night, complete
with an opening monologue for the “13th Annual Ethan Awards.”
The Modern Suit: “It was a three-piece metallic black suit from Sams in
Livingston, NJ, similar to the kind of suit someone would wear while hosting an
awards show. It really stood out.”
Family Matters: Mom Shari wore a metallic gown, while Ethan’s brother
wore a black velvet blazer along with a shirt and coordinating socks that
reflected his colorful personality. Dad wore a black suit with a blue dress
shirt that complemented Ethan’s, while his younger sister wore a
custom-made blue dress. His 3 year old brother may have had the best
red carpet look of all, in a black three-piece suit complete with a monkey tie.
“He definitely rocked it,” says Ethan.

Who: Dylan Maskell
Where: Service was held at North Shore Synagogue in Syosset, NY; party
was at Temple Sinai in Roslyn, NY.
Theme: Since Dylan is a dancer and a gymnast, she chose the theme
“Dancing Past Midnight” which matched her initials, DPM.
Dress Code: Cocktail attire.
Color Coordination: The room was decked out in black, silver and teal and
Dylan’s white party dress from It’s Simply For You, featured teal accents
which continued the theme.
Let’s Accessorize: Dylan danced all night in silver sneakers, and teal and
silver bracelets accented her dress.
Red Carpet Moment: “There was a moment getting dressed when the bow in
the back of my dress was tied and I felt like a princess,” she says. “I knew that
minute that the rest of the night would be amazing!”

Who: Riley Maskell (sister of Dylan)
Where: North Shore Synagogue in Syosset, NY, and the party was at Temple Sinai in Roslyn, NY.
Theme: To complement her initials RM, Riley chose
“Reach for the Moon.”
Fashion Statement: A teal blue ball gown with a jeweled
bodice coordinated with the party room. “The dress and
decor was a total personality match; lots of bling with a
lot of elegance!”
Accessories By Mom: One of Riley’s favorite gifts was
the hand-stoned high heeled converse shoes with
colored laces.
Fashion Disaster: “My dress wouldn’t stay up!,” says Riley. “I tried everything from making it tighter to even using fashion tape, but because we were dancing and sweating, the tape just slid off the dress and stuck to my skin. I just held it up with one hand and didn’t stop dancing all night long!

Many Bar Bat Mitzvah children make some type of grand entrance into their celebration. We have seen children enter on surfboards, golf carts, hockey skates, bicycles, couches, chairs and much more! Check out our Best Of…Bar Bat Mitzvah Entrance story here.
We wanted to share a magical entrance performed by award-winning illusionist, Eric Wilzig.
After performing at hundreds of Bar and Bat Mitzvahs across the country, Eric realized how much time, energy, and sometimes money, goes into creating a memorable “grand entrance” for the Bar Mitzvah boy and/or Bat Mitzvah girl at their celebration.
He wanted to create and offer a magical grand entrance where the Bar or Bat Mitzvah boy or girl would magically appear.
In the past 6 months, The Extreme Magic of Eric has made over 15 Bar and Bat Mitzvah kids appear from a cage of fire, surrounded by their guests, for their Bar or Bat Mitzvah entrance
Watch this video taken at the St. Regis Hotel in NYC and see how it’s done here!
It’s 100% safe and can even be done with little or no fire if the venue doesn’t allow it, and it can be performed anywhere.
For this Magicial Entrance Illusion, all that’s needed is 5 minutes of rehearsal with the Bar or Bat Mitzvah boy or girl.

I’m a 8th grader and live in Westchester, NY. I love tennis, soul cycle, fashion, hanging with my friends, and traveling around the world. Camp Vega is my summer home and my favorite place on earth! I founded the company #Kindnessistherealcool for my Mitzvah Project, and invite everyone to visit us on Instagram @kindnessistherealcool and join the movement. I celebrated my Bat Mitzvah in March, 2015.
Daryn’s Bat Mitzvah: Traveling the World!
Recently, I attended my best friend, Daryn’s Bat Mitzvah. Her theme was traveling the world. Since she and her family moved from New York to London this year, they have had the opportunity to visit many different countries, and it translated into an amazing Bat Mitzvah theme! Everything about the party reflected her theme from the invitations to the party favors.
The invitation set the tone and got everyone excited for the event. The envelope mimicked airmail with silver and hot pink stripes instead of the traditional red and blue border. The inside of the envelope and the back of the invitation had a silver passport stamp design, and the details for the party were in passport-like booklets.
Daryn’s invitation ensemble
Upon arrival at the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center in New York City, there was a beautiful display of giant luggage trunks with flowers.
The entrance to the Rainbow Room
After you went up the elevator, there was a wall of clocks (like you would find in an airport) displaying the time in different cities around the world, including Daryn’s favorite places such as London, Paris, and Beach Lake, Pennsylvania, where she goes to camp!
Daryn in front of the wall of clocks
In the kids’ cocktail room, there were many fun games and activities. There was a photo booth with a green screen and you could select different “tourist postcard” backdrops for your picture. I thought this was a clever tie-in to her theme. Below is a photo of the different backdrops on display.
Different backgrounds for the photo booth postcards
They also had a casino table where you could win an iWatch, a jewelry station where you could design bracelets and necklaces, and a unique basketball/ping pong station where you could bounce the ping pong ball and try to get it into the miniature basketball hoop. This game, (photographed below), was a big hit with the boys and also a very clever and original idea.
Unique basketball/ping pong station
After cocktail hour was over, we were led into the main room of the Bat Mitzvah. It was absolutely beautiful. The centerpieces on the tables were pink flowers designed to make a globe. The dance floor moved in a circle like a globe! The tablecloths were decorated with a passport stamp design. Postcards from around the world were on the tables and each guest received a mini suitcase with globe chocolate balls inside.
Pictures of the main room:
For Daryn’s entrance, she was carried into the room on a “throne.” The men carrying her were dressed in London Guard costumes and they were playing “God Save the Queen.” It was hilarious!
Daryn’s grand entrance
Over the course of the night, many gifts were given out on the dance floor. There were silver trucker hats, bucket hats, sunglasses, lax pinnies, glow sticks, t-shirts, neck pillows, and sleeping masks. There were various logo designs on all of the giveaways. Some featured Daryn’s initials in the Pan Am logo design. Others had a line of planes. Some hats featured the abbreviated names of the places Daryn has lived including “LNDON” (photograph below) and “NYC.”
Some of the “swag” from Daryn’s celebration
Some additional details included a live band along with the DJ which brought a lot of energy into the room. Daryn’s montage featured her narrating over video and photos of her travels around the world which was entertaining and special.
Later in the evening, they handed out grilled cheese and doughnuts on the dance floor. Kids had an ice cream sundae station, and my favorite, a cookie shot station, which is a chocolate chip cookie shaped as a small cup filled with milk. YUM!
The kids’ party favors were black duffle bags for the boys with the airplane logo, and girls received woven beach bags (pictured below) with sequins smiley faces and DD for the eyes – Daryn’s initials. Daryn designed these bags herself and they are great! We also received sweatshirts with the map of the world printed on the back.
Favor for the boys
Favor for the girls
On the way out of the building, we passed by those giant trunks from the beginning of the night. They were opened and filled with candy, tins of popcorn, and cupcakes for people to take home.
Daryn’s theme was completely tailored to her and every detail was perfect. I had the best night and I know that everyone else did too. Mazel Tov Daryn!
Me with my friend Daryn
The following vendors helped to make Daryn’s celebration special:
Venue, The Rainbow Room; Event planner (games, entrance decor, candy station): Victoria Dubin Events; Event designer/floral: Lewis Miller Designs; Music Entertainment: More than Music; Band: Element Music; Photography: Michael Jurick Photography; Montage and Videographer: Jacklight Productions
