I used to have a hate-fascination with Olivia Palermo who it seemed fancied herself NYC high society.

Anyone have info on Maidstone, Piping Rock or The Bathing Corp?



Just some ‘Gi’Land clubs. Sankaty and Fishers Island are better experiences.

I did not read this thread, but I sure hope Chappy Morris is mentioned in this! Now that is old school NYC society.

What do you want to know?


Bathing Corp is a profoundly mediocre beach club in the Hamptons that you really only join for the cache of being a member. It has average, at best, food and an OK beachfront.

"High society" just does not apply to the USA, sorry. Please don't be shy - just say the rich.

Now, if you were to talk about Europe, you could say the aristocracy, and talk about salons, etc. Or if you were to talk about ancient Chinese civilizations or the Indian caste system, yes, there might be a "high society" there. But America?

Don't make me laugh, OP.


That’s actually historically inaccurate. America was started by the younger sons of British nobility who couldn’t inherit land because of primogeniture.

They wanted land and got it in the New World. They come from aristocracy. In fact George Bush is cousins with Charles III.

I’m a Russian Jewish immigrant, so no horse in this race, but you are wrong.

I thought the homelessness & migrant invasion were Fox News inventions.

We attended a wedding of a mutual friend about 5 years ago. She has a fabulous body is tall and lithe but a super homely face. She thinks she is now the cats meow and even has a Instagram referring to herself in the third person "THE LSD". Major eye roll. Get over yourself.

Tried to get into a club my family has belonged to for over 50 years and they were not accepted. She is doing her absolute best to become a NYC queen. But there are some circles that will not have it.

Grew up with these kinds of people my entire life. Some are real but many are full of themselves in a reverse showoff kind of way. They go out of their way to wear an old shirt, or banged up boat shoes but never forgetting their LV lockjaw.

Married a "normal" guy from the West Coast and was so happy to be able to become part of a more normal world. Welcome relief!


She's trying hard to be the second Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. I think this is why she didn't fix her nose.


For sure but to those in the know, she will always be the quintessential "wanna be"


Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy was a social climber, but I guess that's ok because she's a blonde with a French name?

No one is surprised that your family's club is racist, but you seem oddly proud of it.

I grew up adjacent to that world. Actively moved out of nyc before I had kids to avoid it. It’s a pressure cooker.
