This past 4th of July was a scorcher, but that didn’t keep revelers at the retro-themed Liberty Belle Spectacular from sporting their vintage best—if you’re gonna be hot, you might as well look good as you swelter, right? The Empire Hotel Rooftop might not have been the best vantage point for the fireworks—but with burlesque from Gin Minsky, Miss Ekaterina and Medianoche, among others, there was plenty of boom-boom action to be had anyway.
