ALICE + OLIVIA Kicks Off Hamptons Summer with a Chic Poolside Celebration
Stacey Bendet brought her signature sense of color, style, and playful glamour to the Hamptons with an exclusive poolside celebration at her Water Mill residence, officially kicking off the summer season with ALICE + OLIVIA by Stacey Bendet.
Held on Sunday, June 28, the intimate afternoon welcomed a stylish crowd of friends, tastemakers, and notable guests, including Jenny Mollen, Beth Stern, Sai De Silva, Charlotte D’Alessio, Ava Dash, Rowan Henchy, Jordan Emanuel, Jessica Wang, Millie Simmonds, Caleb Simpson, Kylie Vonnahme, Sofia Karvela, Jooshica, Ana Wolferman, Lilly Hartley, and more.
The celebration perfectly captured the effortless glamour of a VIP Hamptons summer afternoon, blending fashion, beauty, wellness, and hospitality in true ALICE + OLIVIA style. Guests enjoyed a DJ set by Jordan Emanuel of Bravo’s Summer House, LALO cocktails, frozen skinny margaritas, Wölffer Estate wines, and playful games of beer pong by the pool.
The afternoon also featured lymphatic massages by Living with Ivey, bikini charm customizations by Dorne, and a Farmers Daughter pop-up, creating a curated mix of summer activations that felt both elevated and relaxed. Adding to the quintessential “only in the Hamptons” experience, in-demand plastic surgeon Dr. Jordan Terner offered Botox touch-ups, which quickly became one of the day’s most talked-about moments.
From poolside cocktails to beauty touch-ups and summer-ready fashion moments, the event embodied the spirit of the season: chic, social, sun-soaked, and effortlessly fun.
