A-listers, It girls, and in-demand party regulars flocked to Michael Rubin (the CEO of Fanatics) and Camille Fishel’s third annual white party this past Monday. The summer is a slumbering time on the international party scene, with award shows long over and gala season still months away. Their Hamptons residence hosted the highly anticipated Fourth of July extravaganza. The required attire? Summer Whites, naturally.
Selecting the highlights of the event is a challenging task. The location was a large beachfront estate crammed with modern artwork, the exterior of which shone as brilliantly as the white ensembles that occupied the area. (By night, the rooftop was lit up in bright pink and used as a dance floor.) A who’s who of Hollywood and sports was on the guest list, including Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Travis Scott, Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber, Kevin Hart, DJ Khaled, Tom Brady, Emily Ratajkowski, and more. Despite everyone adhering to the dress code, other notable looks were Kardashian’s opaque two-piece Alaïa suit and Hailey Bieber’s ruched dress from Colombian brand Maygel Coronel. Lori Harvey staged an unplanned fashion show for TikTok in her kitchen, and the viral video has received close to 4 million views so far.
A fantastic soundtrack is essential for any celebration, but Rubin went above and above by arranging for Usher and Ne-Yo to perform. Jack Harlow and Travis Scott kept things upbeat behind the DJ booths. Usher was seen dancing with Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, and Affleck really held his own with the two celebrities. Sports legends Tom Brady and Robert Kraft were spotted hooking up elsewhere.
Nothing was left unseen when it came to the food; pizza virtuoso Mark Iacono of Lucali, fresh from Brooklyn, dished up his cherished pies. Dusse Cognac and Ace of Spades champagne were also offered. During the evening, Kevin Hart, who was among several celebrities endorsing liquor products, started serving shots of his own Gran Cormamino Tequila.
After dusk, the famous Grucci family—who also produce the well-known Macy’s Fourth of July show—lit up the sky with a colorful fireworks spectacular. While celebrities were present in the front rows of Paris’ couture week, which was taking place on the other side of the Atlantic, it seemed as though this party had the entire population of attractive people to itself. There was even a small amount of couture on show.
