In a world that often feels disconnected and transactional, there's nothing more radically hospitable than welcoming people into your space, your table, and your life. In this accessible, inviting book on hosting and entertaining, author, CEO, and internet big sister Chelsea Fagan guides readers on creating moments worth staying in for. From designing the right space, to crafting a menu that won’t keep you in the kitchen all night, to revitalizing the lost art of cultivating grown-up communities, this book will make you the perfect host at every budget. Having People Over includes guides for:      

• Curating a space optimized for entertaining, so people can drop by without it sending you into a tailspin.     

• A brief history of the cocktail hour—and its imagined future—including recipes with and without spirits.     

 • The 101 tutorial for all things dinner parties: inviting guests, setting the table, planning a menu, creating a mood board, and actually enjoying the evening yourself.     

• Facilitating a (platonic) adult sleepover—and why you definitely should!  

• How to be good guest wherever you go, from when to show up, to what to bring, to what absolutely not to do.  With chic, stylized photography and charming, illustrative line drawings throughout—providing everything from sample tablescapes to charcuterie board maps—and plenty of actual recipes for your next gathering, Having People Over will transform your relationship to entertaining, one apéritif at a time.

POPLIN

Our crispest collection yet. Poplin is breathable, structured, and smooth to the touch—perfect for warmer temps and slow mornings.

PINSTRIPE

Get down to business in our newest pinstripe – made for your nine to five – am or pm. Crafted from a super-soft and long-lasting cotton blend, it’s ready to work overtime while you clock out.

100% LINEN

A classic 100% linen fabric—naturally breathable, effortlessly cool, and incredibly comfortable. Lightweight yet durable, it’s made to keep up with you season after season. And don’t worry about wearing it on repeat—it only gets softer (and better) over time.

Signature silk-ish

The “silk” you can wash, but more durable than the real thing. We use cellulose fibers like Cupro, Tencel, and viscose that feel luxe, drapey, and smooth. They may feel fancy, but they wash easily. Bonus points: they’re cruelty-free and friendlier on the planet, too.

Jersey Knit

Cozy, cool to the touch, and made of cotton with a hint of elastane for stretch and shape retention. Our upgraded jersey knit is super soft and double-lined for a heavier, more durable feel. If you didn’t think a jersey could be this luxe, you’ve never slept in ours.
