Long careers and the new blood
Young designers were fascinated to see the coordinated language between 30 years of career designers and those fresh ones holding the creativity flag. If you are sharing the game room with masters you better bring the new fire with you, this time it was Megan Mae and Edvin Thompson (Theophilio).

Social interchange
The show is a dance between the artists, the director, and the audience who make the experience happen. The Hamptons are famous for the caliber of the audience, full of economic drivers with a good eye for style, business opportunities, and promoters of good causes; like the Assembly Woman for District 76 of NYC Rebecca Seawright, the Philanthropist Jean Shafiroff, and the CEO and founder of Bella Media Vanessa Coppes among others. A nonprofit organization called Dress For Success displayed clothing for women in the workforce. This nonprofit helps women with employment resources and work attire.
