Wondering why you didn’t get an invite to the 2010 Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge in Bridgehampton? Maybe because you’re not a Real Housewife; those redoubtable dames — of NYC and NJ — dominated. So you know the clothes were…memorable.
Bethenny Frankel had a total polo costume going; I wouldn’t have been surprised to see a parasol and some smelling salts. Or hear her scream “move your bloomin’ arse!”
Kourtney Kardashian went a little 90’s and very elegant.
Like actor Malik Yoba, most of the dudes didn’t even try.
This guy was a – ahem – notable exception. (That’s bouncer-to-the-stars Wass Stevens.)
For once, shoes like Amber Rose‘s make some sense: there are horses here.
Jill Zarin likes to make it clear at all times that being in the fabric trade, she can waste as much of the stuff as she wants.
Elga Wimmer and artist Kevin Berlin definitely take the prize for most colorful/Ren-Faire-apropos.
Cheryl Mercuris (guest of honor in the Swagg VIP Lounge, you’ll be glad to know) defines “schmatte chic.”
Kelly Bensimon appears to have had a mishap. Or three. We’re all fro brazening things out, but when you’re already on Duncan Dance-thin-ice, this is folly.
Ramona Singer, clearly a proponent of daytime cleavage.
Dina Manzo could have benefited from the “take off one accessory before you leave the house” rule. Or…maybe she did?
