You’d be forgiven for thinking you’d stepped back in time to the ‘90s. Some of the world's most stylish women were dressed in a rainbow of Dannijo slip dresses at our 10th anniversary dinner last night at Le Turtle in NYC.
From Nina Agdal in khaki, to Danielle Bernstein in sunflower yellow and Louise Roe in fuchsia, the slip reigned supreme. Co-founders Danielle Snyder and Jodie Snyder-Morel represented in black and mist slips respectively, layered with vintage finds and Dannijo jewels. In fact, the entire flower-and-tealight-decked space—designed by Mimi Brown—shimmered with crystal earrings, neckpieces and arm parties.

Justin Theroux and Questlove were also among the longtime Dannijo supporters who attended the event, which was supported by Bumble Bizz and First Republic Bank.
In a speech to guests, Danielle described the company's highs and lows over the past decade. "Our most important accomplishment to date is the community we’ve built," she said.
"You’ve inspired and influenced Jodie and I and you’ve given us something that matters more than success; you’ve given us friendship.”

Guests toasted the brand with Casa Dragones Joven tequila and feasted on a menu by Le Turtle head chef Victor Amarilla of his signature Sasso poulet, côte de boeuf and wild mushroom risotto.
The Nineties theme continued with custom friendship bracelets woven on-site, polaroid snapshots and retro candy and lottery tickets in the gift bags.
