Katie Holmes didn’t drop it low on the Hourglass activation. She did, nevertheless, put on Tove’s drop-waisted Lauryn gown with slingback kitten heels whereas posing exterior a porta-potty (?) at a pop-up Barneys retailer—simply one in every of a number of “sensorial experiences” the model had mounted to have fun 20 years within the enterprise, together with blindfolded tastings and a flash mob from Showtime.
