This year, during Miami’s annual Art Basel event, HYPEBEAST held an exclusive HB100 dinner honoring the most influential names in streetwear, high-fashion, music, art, entertainment and culture at large.

Hosted in the secluded backyard of the Faena Hotel behind Damien Hirst’s Gone But Not Forgotten golden mammoth sculpture, guests polished off cocktails by Rémy Martin and enjoyed music curated by Pandora, while casually strolling around a floral installation by Michael Murphy that read “HB” from one angle and “100” in the front. Before the soirée ended, we caught up with some high-profile attendees – Ronnie Fieg, Chris Gibbs, Ben Baller, Heron Preston, Dao-Yi Chow, Maxwell Osborne, Cali Thornhill DeWitt, Francesco Ragazzi, Mitsuhiro Kubo and Tremaine Emory – to hear their thoughts on being nominated for this year’s HB100 list.

Watch the interviews above, then check out everything that went down at the HB100 after-party.
