During the event, guests were surrounded by the colorful gazes of Niro’s model series of paintings. The artwork display, on loan from Miami’s Avant Gallery, also overlapped with the weekend’s popular Hamptons Fine Art Fair—which featured a range of new art from creatives across the country. Attendees included Rebecca Minkoff, Kelly Bensimom, Alejandra Alonso Rojas, Sophie Elgort, Fern Mallis, Jeffrey Banks, Dmitry Prut, Courtney Daniels, and The Daily Summer‘s own Monica Forman, Elizabeth Kurpis, Nandini Vaid, and Aaron Royce.

DAOU Vineyards’ reserve rosé, reserve chardonnay, and Soul of Lion cabernet kept guests refreshed—and with full glasses—throughout the evening. Casamigos’ spicy margaritas also delivered a zesty kick to the affair.

The dinner found attendees seated at sunset for a delectable meal filled with Sunset Harbor signatures. Tables were accented with glittering bracelets and necklaces from LAGOS’ summer collections, which decorated each table with a burst of sparkle—and gleamed on guests including Rebecca Minkoff, Sophie Elgort, and Elizabeth Kurpis. The menu? An assortment of appetizers and sushi, followed by the restaurant’s signature seafood fra diavolo, chicken, and tuna. Ice cream cookie sandwiches finished the dinner with a sweet twist.
