Southampton will come alive with style on August 7 during the third annual Hamptons Fashion Week, inspired by the East End and its surroundings.
Designers and labels that are set to show include Cesar Galindo, Brochu Walker, Culture Trees, and House Of Barretti.
“We are thrilled to feature a sneak peek to Cesar Galindo Spring 2022 at Hamptons Fashion Week,” said Galindo. “The collection is travel/vacation inspired with relaxed, sexy silhouettes in happy, feel good colors and prints. Sunrise and sunset mood.”
The event will launch with a private cocktail sip and shop event in Southampton Village, which is by invitation on August 6.
“I am so looking forward to showcasing Brochu Walker at Hamptons Fashion Week. The Brochu Walker Collection always draws inspiration from nature, especially the sensibility of coastal environments,” said designer Karine Dubner. “The natural beauty of the Hamptons is so synonymous with everything we strive to create!”
On Saturday, August 7, from 5 to 9 PM guests will view runway shows by the designers along with entertainment at Southampton Inn. There will be signature cocktails and mocktails by Spring 44, Coconut Cartel, and Ghost Tequila, as well as food samplings from local restaurants. Guests will be able to dance to DJ Fly Girl Tunes.
“Art and culture are the threads we use to create our designs,” said Judith Gaffney of Culture Trees. “Hope and inspiration is the fabric. We are excited to be a part of Hamptons Fashion Week and share our collection and inspiration.”
There will also be shopping at the event from exhibitors including NU-Me Moods Curated Home Collection, Signature Blends by KF, Stella and Ruby Jewelry, Sara Shala Collection, and more.
“This special event is a unique, fun, and all-encompassing opportunity to share with residents and visitors, and to enjoy local fashion and beauty brands found right here on the East End,” said Dee Rivera, the founder of Hamptons Fashion Week. “In addition, local fashion-designer participants will get a chance to display new looks and trends.”
Special guests and hosts will include author, TV personality, and host, Jay Manuel; Netflix producer and actress, Kim Fields; TV personality, former Food Network host and NY Times Bestselling Author, Gina Neely; WWE Star Mickie James; TikTok star Nick Norcia; celebrity host and editor, Sydney Sadick; and Amazon Prime reality TV star, Isabella Barrett.
“House of Barretti is honored to be a part of such a prestigious event like Hamptons Fashion Week,” said Barrett. “This is our first season showcasing in the Hamptons and can’t wait to showcase our new suit collection at NYFW.”
The series will conclude on Sunday, August 8, with a Rosé Yacht Brunch from 2 to 4 PM. Brunch is sponsored by Freedom Luxury Inc, BODVAR House of Roses, Spring 44, and other exhibitors. There will be special presentations by Kim Fields for the launch of her Signature Blends by KF. Jay Manuel will hold a book signing for “The Wig, The Bitch, & The Meltdown” along with a Q&A.
“As a business owner, I believe it’s truly important to, not only show up competitively in the market place, but to also partner and collaborate with other valued platforms and brands,” said Fields. “HFW’s mission, as well as the brilliant collabs they’re engaged in, made me immediately say ‘Yes!’ to align both my brands, Signature Blends by KF and Signature Scrubs by KF, with this fabulous event.”
