Flipper’s new collection launch in LA wasn’t just another event: it was a whole mood. Last night, Lot 613 was transformed into a roller rink wonderland where fashion, music, and nostalgia came together in the best possible way. Among the coolest guests slipping into the scene was none other than Benny Blanco, who kept it laid-back yet effortlessly stylish, blending right into the playful energy that defined the evening.

The invite-only event brought together an impressive lineup of music legends and style stars. Alongside Benny, Dr. Dre, will.i.am, Swizz Beatz, Lauren Halsey, Shaun Ross, Landon Barker, and plenty more were seen skating, laughing, and soaking in the atmosphere. The vibe was less about showing off and more about celebrating creativity, community, and good times, exactly what Flipper’s stands for.

Guests were treated to a custom roller rink experience, complete with flashing archival images from the original Flipper’s Roller Boogie Palace and a killer set by Kaytranada. Even the cocktails leaned into the fun, think “Gin & Juice by Dre” and specialty drinks from Still G.I.N., adding to the carefree energy of the night.

The new collection, designed by Liberty Ross, took inspiration from the brand’s roots but with a fresh, fashion-forward twist. Expect playful pieces like reimagined MA-1 jackets, bold printed bombers, and sherpa outerwear in vibrant shades like Turbo Sun and Laser Fern. Accessories like skate straps, band-aids, and tote bags gave the collection an extra dose of personality, proving that style doesn’t have to be serious to make a statement.

But beyond the looks, the event felt like a gathering of friends who just happen to be some of the biggest names in music and fashion. It wasn’t about posing for the perfect shot, it was about having fun, sharing stories, and living in the moment.

By the end of the night, it was clear that Flipper’s isn’t just for skaters, it’s for anyone who wants to embrace style with a side of adventure. And with names like Benny Blanco, Dr. Dre, and Swizz Beatz enjoying the ride, it’s safe to say this is a movement worth rolling with. Because at the end of the day, fashion should be about expressing yourself and having a blast while you’re at it—and Flipper’s is making that easier than ever.
