The Coolest Girls Were at Harley Viera-Newton and Recess’s Anniversary Dinner Last Night

The rain didn’t stop Harley Viera-Newton’s multilayered celebrations last night with Recess seltzer founder Benjamin Witte, close friends, and family at New York’s famous French-Vietnamese restaurant Indochine. The night kicked off with a toast honoring HVN’s three-year mark; an anniversary commemorated with the launch of her latest endeavor, a new accessories line.

Guests donned gold “HVN” tiaras after shrugging their raincoats, ditching their umbrellas, and picking up a Recess cocktail; the CBD-infused beverage brand turned one last night! In the crowd was Emily Ratajkowski, Laura Love, Charli Howard, Paloma Elsesser, Adam Selman, Sarah Hoover, Christian Siriano, Hilary Rhoda, Selby Drummond, Nicky Rothschild, Wes Gordon, Jason Wu, Cate Holstein, Tali Lennox, Nell Diamond, Ruby Aldridge, Vogue’s Sally Singer, Sara Moonves, and Molly Gordon. Quite the turnout! Most wore HVN’s cherry-printed dresses and button-down shirts, brightening up the dim-lit restaurant with bursts of wild color.

Pieces from the HVN accessories line, including vintage-inspired chainmail bags and gorgeous rhinestone-embellished hoops, were spotted sparkling in the candlelight on the likes of Ratajkowski, Love, Howard, Elsesser, Hoover, and Viera-Newton’s mother, Cristina, and sister Rio.

The final anniversary of the evening belonged to Viera-Newton and her husband, Ross Schwartzman (aka DJ Ross One), who flew in all the way from the Middle East to support his wife of two years and her major achievements. Before the night’s end, guests surprised Viera-Newton with an HVN-inspired cherry-themed cake, the sweetest way to end such a special evening.
