Saturday, we went to the Summer Soirée at Park Chelsea's rooftop. The event, hosted by WC Smith and Magnises, provided guests with a sneak peek of DC Swim Week, which is this week, with a poolside preview featuring fashion from top-tier swimwear designers. Here, swimsuit designer Estella Bonds, who has some of her swimwear on the models here, with DC Swim Week founder and creative director Moh Ducis.
