Without a doubt, Summer House is having its best year ever with Season 8. Unfortunately, it’s primarily because we’re all messy and wanted to see the drama unfold between exes Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke. Even outside of that drama, Season 8 has delivered, and we can’t wait for the reunion.
With such an impressive season, they have a lot of momentum heading into the sit-down. Clearly, the cast got that memo because they showed up and showed out when it came to their looks. Well, most of them did, at least.
Bravo’s The Daily Dish dropped an exclusive first look at the Season 8 reunion fits. They said the cast aimed for a “chic, beachy sensibility mixed with a touch of glamorous sophistication.” In other words, they all turned up in muted, neutral tones with most of the women rocking exposed middrifts. We’ve come a long way from those department store fashions from the early days of the show. Let’s take a look at what they delivered.
Amanda Batula
Amanda Batula pulled up to the reunion looking like a perfect combination of sexy and sophisticated. She told Bravo that she “wanted to look like an elegant lady, but cool,” and she hit that nail right on the head. No notes for Amanda.
Kyle Cooke
You have to give Kyle Cooke props for adding a major pop of color to these reunion outfits. While all of the other men opted for whites and beiges, Kyle sported a sage green suit. This photo also marks one of the last appearances of Kyle’s mullet, which Andy Cohen chopped off at some point during the sitdown.
Paige DeSorbo
You can always count on Paige DeSorbo to deliver a look, and she did not disappoint with her Season 8 reunion dress. She opted for a white gown, showing with a mesh center to show off her stomach. It’s almost a Real Housewives level of glam, and she cited Zendaya and Anne Hathaway as her style inspirations.
Lindsay Hubbard
With Lindsay’s relationship drama in the spotlight, you’d think she would have opted for a show-stopping revenge dress like Ariana Madix pulled off during the Season 10 Vanderpump Rules reunion. Unfortunately, Lindsay didn’t quite achieve that level of iconicness. She looks good, but she admitted to Bravo that one of her goals with her look was to be “comfortable.” I can tell.
Ciara Miller
Here’s a contender for best-dressed. When describing her look, Ciara Miller said she was looking for something “ethereal, dainty, and just beautiful.” At first glance, she looks like she was plucked out of a 90s R&B video. The slinky, asymmetrical dress, the hair, the makeup — it’s all perfection.
Danielle Olivera
Danielle Olivera went full-glam with her Season 8 look. She said she was trying to channel Kourtney Kardashian with her glittery gown. Since she’s the only one who opted for a sparkling dress, she kind of sticks out when compared to the other ladies. It looks like she’s going to a different event from everyone else, but she still rocked it.
Gabby Prescod
Has Gabby Prescod ever looked better? She said, “It’s giving Grecian goddess [and] Birth of Venus,” and she is 100% correct. From the color to the sexy cutouts along the side of the dress, Gabby slayed her Season 8 reunion look.
Carl Radke
Carl tried to do something a little bit different with his Season 8 reunion look by opting for a “60s inspired” fit. Carl said that his goal was to channel a “tortured Motown singer” going to The Hamptons. However, the all-white makes him look more like a tortured milkman.
Jesse Solomon
It’s Jesse Solomon’s first reunion, so we want to cut him some slack, but good grief. He pulled out a cream-colored suit with a blue shirt underneath. It’s definitely not giving a “reality TV reunion” vibe. Instead, it’s giving used car salesman with beat-up loafers.
West Wilson
For West Wilson’s first reunion, he opted for an oversized beige suit with a solid white shirt underneath. This look is definitely not for everyone, but West pulled it off. He described it as a “hipster” vibe. He said, “I feel my style this season, people have appreciated it, so I feel like leaning into being a little different is the way to go.”
Summer House Season 8 airs on Bravo, Thursdays at 9/8c.
