Also, a full run-down of the evening, for those who haven't heard from their counterparts at UBS.

As some of you may recall, late last week a item ran in the Post announcing the weekend plans of "a group of British female bankers who work at UBS’s Midtown office." They were: to attend a party for the "sexual elite," at which a "A-list actors, British aristocrats, Formula One owners, moneyed married couples” and banking heirs would be laid out before them on the beds assembled in room like some sort of orgy buffet. And while we've yet to hear a peep from the Swiss bank re: how the night went, one intrepid reporter has shared her account of the evening. For those considering RSVP'ing yes to the next event in the series, you can expect:

• Audrey Hepburn to set the mood ("There were three flat-screen TVs playing Breakfast at Tiffany’s")

• House rules ("Men must not approach women, men must not talk to women (unless invited), men must wait to be invited")

• A paucity of free drinks ("after the Champagne reception, patrons could purchase drinks from a cash bar")

• Hedge fund guys who flash their résumés ("'I’m a principal at a major hedge fund and my wife is a media magnate. She is 100 times more successful than I am,' he volunteered as he inched closer and closer. I asked why he and his wife of 10 years enjoy going to these parties. 'We’re fit, we have good bodies and we like sex, and want to share our sex with others,' he said.")

• Scintillating conversation ("Like clockwork, 11 p.m. hit, and Romein grabbed a finance-looking guy by his striped tie, pulled him to a bed plopped adjacent to the bar and pushed his head down toward her crotch — while she chatted with the woman seated next to her.")

Hedge Fund Manager Wants 35 Percent Of Ex-Wife's Shoe Collection For Reasons Not Entirely Clear

Daniel Shak is the founder of SHK Management, a hedge fund that reportedly "pulled the plug on its sole investment, spread trades on Comex gold futures," last year. Daniel Shak is also the ex-husband of Beth Shak, who he divorced three years ago and is now suing for allegedly hiding assets in an attempt to cheat him out of settlement money. The assets in question? Twelve hundred pairs of designer shoes, which Shak claims his former wife "hid" from him in a "secret room." The way DS sees it, the footwear collection, which includes "Christian Louboutins and other high-end designer shoes" is worth approximately $1 million and he wants at least 35 percent. The way Beth Shak sees it, this is crazy (“I’m shaking my head over this whole thing,” she told reporters. “He is saying he didn’t know the closet in our master bedroom existed") and she doesn't understand why her ex is going after her shoes now. At this time there appear to be a few possible explanations: a) Daniel is raising money to re-launch his fund (he told the Journal, after liquidating SHK in January 2011, that he'd be "trading again in a few weeks," though it's unclear if that happened). b) He's got gambling debts to repay ("A poker lover himself, he was reached at a card table yesterday but declined to comment"). c) He and John Mack are going to sell them out of the back of a truck. d) He just really appreciates women's shoes. e) Other Hedgie sues poker pro ex-wife over her 1,200-pair designer shoe collection [NYP] Related (...?): Hedge Fund SHK Liquidates, Rattles Gold Market
