ALICE + OLIVIA Kicks Off Hamptons Summer With a Poolside Party
Stacey Bendet opened her Water Mill residence on Sunday, June 28, for a poolside afternoon that functioned as an unofficial start gun for Hamptons summer. Running from 2 to 5 p.m., the ALICE + OLIVIA gathering leaned fully into warm-weather leisure, with a DJ set by Jordan Emanuel of Bravo’s Summer House, LALO cocktails and frozen skinny margaritas, and Wolffer Estate wines keeping the afternoon moving.

The programming blended fashion, beauty, and wellness in a way that felt engineered for the season. Guests could book lymphatic massages from Living with Ivey, customize bikini charms with Dorne, browse a Farmers Daughter pop-up, or settle a score at beer pong. In the most talked-about touch, in-demand plastic surgeon Dr. Jordan Terner offered Botox touch-ups poolside, a detail that felt very much of the Hamptons.

Launched in 2002, ALICE + OLIVIA is available at the brand’s boutiques worldwide, at aliceandolivia.com, and across more than 800 department and specialty stores.
