On June 15, the phenomenal style brand alice + olivia by Stacey Bendet.

Giving a whole new meaning to the phrase ‘pop of color,’ the host along with Absolut Vodka presented one of the most stylishly fun bashes in recent memory.

Trendsetters and fashion gurus gathered on the breezy summer night on the Close East Lawn in Chelsea where deliciously rainbow cocktails ringed in the special anniversary that carried without the sensational theme of Pride Prom.

Bendet was joined by such notable attendees as Ariana Debose, Nicky Hilton, Eboni K. Williams, Zac Posen, Lea Michele, AnnaLynne McCord, Jordan Emanuel, Amelie Anstett Giulietti, Victoria Paris and more.

DJ KISS played as glittery fashionistas took the night over as they sipped on specialty cocktails of The Absolut Stace (Absolut Lime, Fresh Lemon Juice, Strawberry Rhubarb Puree, Honey and Club Side all garnished with edible glitter), The 20 Years of Stace (Absolut Grapefruit, Fresh Lime Juice, Agave Nectar, Italicus Bergamot Liqueur, Hibiscus Tea Side all garnished with edible glitter), along with the Spicy Stace Margarita (Altos Tequila, Fresh Lime Juice, Club Soda and Jalapeno).

Under the grand disco ball, a special dance performance choreographed by Ebony Williams took place while guests enjoyed vegan delicious eats from Beatnic.

Before the crowd the designer gave an emotional speech in front of guests that was full of gratitude for the two decades of success of alice + olivia. Taking the stage shortly after, singer Gracie Abrams belted out tunes that had partygoers swinging in unison.

The entire night was a perfectly colorful extravaganza that we can only hope will be followed by another 20 years of fashion magic.

With clothing that juxtaposes the whimsical and flirty with the sexy and sophisticated, a+o epitomizes the personality and perspective of its founder, Stacey Bendet.
