Before Doechii arrived, guests enjoyed light nights and signature cocktails while the Swamp Princess’ personal vibes provider, DJ Miss Milan, kept heads nodding and toes tapping. Eventually, it was time for guests to head outside and live life on the edge, taking in Doechii’s groundbreaking performance on the venue’s impressive Edge Skydeck stage, which is literally in the clouds. Doechiig didn’t disappoint, rocking a puffer trench from White Abyss, paired with earrings from Missoma and shoes from Jacquemus while putting on a short but still groundbreaking performance, belting out her hits like “Boiled Peanuts” and “Denial Is A River,” before exiting the stage. It was an epic moment indeed.
