There were limitations. Mainly: The original space that housed Bungalow 8 is now a luxury condo. (This is where Neidich came to play: the hospitality guru lent his nightclub, Acme, as a location.) But the sextet got to work, adding palm trees and polka dot booths to the Noho basement—two design hallmarks of the original club. As the saying goes: “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.”
Literally. Charli XCX was there with Troye Sivan, as was Benito Skinner, almost incognito while rocking his new blonde hair. Louisa Jacobson looked effortlessly cool in a button-down. She wasn’t the only one: Jenna Lyons, wore one in trademark style; dancing with fiancé Cass Bird all night long. Alyssa Liu, Alexa Chung and Tom Sturridge, and Paloma Elsesser joined in. Supermodel Iman asked Guiducci to dance when her late husband’s hit, “Let’s Dance” came on. Meanwhile, Lauren Santo Domingo, Chelsea Clinton, and Kelly Sawyer Patricof held court at a central banquette. While we are on the topic of fashion: Marc Jacobs wore a cheetah print Chanel jacket. But most of the guest list? The people who originally frequented Sacco’s haunt. “We let Amy take the lead, and her list was a lot of Bungalow’s original regulars,” Blasberg tells me. “And then the other hosts came in and supplemented some new names.”
