New York - Melissa Rivers hosted a private party to honour her mother Joan Rivers after her funeral.
The daughter of the late Fashion Police presenter held a small gathering on Sunday at Joan's home as a final tribute to her famous mother and she purposefully decorated the apartment with floral arrangements and plenty of candles in her mom's favoured style.
The insider told the New York Post's Page Six: "Melissa presented it just like Joan had done. It will probably be the last time we see the house that way. It was like Joan was going to come down the stairs."
Attendees included the socialite Blaine Trump, actor Hugh Jackman, author Nancy Collins, Lady Sharon Sondes and fashion designer Elie Tahari.
Elie Tahari took to her Twitter account to remember the comedienne on Saturday night befor the party
