While it’s normally an outdoor affair, the over 200 designers who donated their wares, to be sold at discounted prices with all proceeds going to charity, set up shop underneath one of the most massive tents I’ve ever seen. Donna Karan, Theory, alice + olivia, J Brand, Diane von Furstenberg, Helmut Lang, Intermix, Scoop NYC, Splendid, Smythson, and Ralph Lauren were just a few of the notable draws. Joining local Hamptonites were Kelly Ripa, Mark Feuerstein, Lara Spencer, Star Jones, Tiffani Thiessen, Beth Ostrosky Stern, George Kotsiopoulos, Isaac Mizrahi, Jonathan Cheban, Kyle Richards, Veronica Webb, Hilary Rhoda, and Jessica Hart, among others.
J. Brand and Ralph Lauren were the most notable draws, along with gratis psychic readings and makeup touch-ups and while many lamented the absence of Dyson this year, scant was the shopper without a handful of shopping bags.
