Jean-Michel Basquiat ruled downtown New York during the ‘80s, and on Wednesday evening (2 November 2016) the Neo-expressionist artist made his triumphant return as alice + olivia by Stacey Bendet celebrated its new capsule collection featuring Basquiat’s work. Made in partnership with the Basquiat Estate, sales from the collection will benefit the CFDA Foundation Inc.
The crowd included bold-named creatives from the worlds of art, fashion, music and film — the same sorts of people who surrounded Basquiat as he made work from his Bond Street studio by day while partying at places like Danceteria and Area. Victoria Justice, Nina Agdal, Pierce Brosnan, Nicky Hilton, Princess Beatrice of York, Doreen Remen, Jeanette Hayes and Salman Rushdie were among those who showed up at downtown gallery The Hole to celebrate the collection’s debut with Bendet, who was wearing a maxi dress adorned with ruffled tiers and Basquiat’s work.
