A Tale of Two Worlds: ‘City Lights’ and ‘Beach Nights’

This season, The Blonds unveiled a two-part collection inspired by the Global Glamazon—a woman who commands attention wherever she goes.

City Lights:

  • A masterclass in sophisticated seduction, featuring crystal-encrusted corsets, sleek cocktail dresses, and daring cutouts reminiscent of silver-screen sirens.

Beach Nights:

  • A bold departure into sultry, high-shine ensembles, with shimmering metallics, plunging silhouettes, and jewel-toned hues designed for a night under the stars.

The collection was nothing short of cinematic, with teal feathers cascading down silhouettes and bijoux-studded corsetry sculpting the body, reaffirming The Blonds’ signature commitment to theatrical couture with an edge.

A Star-Studded Front Row & High-Fashion Afterparty

The front row was a who’s who of fashion, music, and nightlife, with appearances by Crystal Waters, Countess Luann de Lesseps, Jillian Hervey, Diane Brill, Susanne Bartsch, Aquaria, Kandy Muse, Jay Manuel, and Larsen Thompson.

Following the show, guests continued the celebration of high-glamour excess at an exclusive afterparty at Two Fifteen at PUBLIC.
