Shoe maven and soon-to-be clothing designer Sam Edelman gave us a call from the Bridgehampton show grounds, in between selling shoes at his shop there and catching a few of the horse jumping competitions.

As a relatively new designer, Danielle Queller has held court in the fine jewelry scene for two years, with her baubles already gracing the covers of glossies and red carpets across the globe.
