PS ModCom "King of Cool" Soiree at the Steve McQueen Residence

This activity has passed

The Palm Springs Modern Committee invites you to an exclusive event fit for Hollywood Royalty!

This hot ticket takes you inside the former home of the "King of Cool," Steve McQueen.

As you enter the exclusive Southridge gates and wind your way up into the private hilltop community, breathtaking views of Palm Springs glitter below; the location is stunning…but the home itself is the crown jewel.

Steve McQueen was the quintessential American movie star: handsome, rugged, and effortlessly cool…just like his meticulously restored estate.

Designed in 1964 by famed architect Hugh Kaptur, this iconic home has been returned to its former glory thanks to Mark Haddawy, co-founder of Resurrection Vintage, and fashion designer Jeremy Scott. Featuring custom Edward Fields carpets, pecky cypress walls, and era-specific wallpapers, you will be mesmerized by a treasure trove of unique McQueen-era artifacts as you sip cocktails poolside and dance under a blanket of stars.

Dress: Cocktail Chic
