What a special evening in California! Celebrating this milestone on the West Coast gave us the opportunity to share the brand with so many wonderful new faces.
Surrounded by such an inspiring community, the evening was truly unforgettable. From gathering around the table to celebrating our latest Summer Collections, every moment served as a reminder that Hunter Bell has always been about the incredible people who wear, support, and bring the brand to life.
The Setting
The celebration took place at the Montecito home of Sarah Wilson, one of Hunter’s longtime best friends. Tucked away in one of the area’s beautiful neighborhoods, Sarah’s thoughtfully designed garden provided the perfect setting for an evening of gathering and celebration.
Guests mingled throughout the space while enjoying elevated bites, signature margaritas and hibiscus lemonades, and a curated selection of California wines. The intimate garden setting offered a beautiful backdrop for reconnecting with longtime friends and welcoming new ones.
The Community
Our California gathering celebrated the new connections and inspiring community continuing to grow around Hunter Bell. Women from across Montecito and Santa Barbara, including creatives, entrepreneurs, tastemakers, and friends both new and old, came together over a shared appreciation for personal style, thoughtful design, and meaningful conversation.
As Hunter Bell celebrates twenty years, it felt especially meaningful to introduce the brand to new faces while gathering with longtime supporters. Surrounded by women who inspire and uplift one another, the evening was a beautiful reminder that the Hunter Bell community is built not only through the clothes we create, but through the friendships, conversations, and lasting connections they help bring to life.
Honoring 20 Years
Thoughtful details celebrating Hunter Bell’s 20-year milestone were woven throughout the evening, including vibrant florals, a curated display of the Summer collection, a mood board highlighting the brand’s creative process, and custom HB linens.
Guests gathered in their Hunter Bell looks, received commemorative totes, and joined Hunter for a champagne toast honoring the friendships and milestones that have shaped the brand.
The evening concluded with custom California truffles tied with HB ribbon, a sweet ending to a celebration of twenty years and all that lies ahead.
