ABOUT
FEMME SOCIALS

Femme Socials curates experiences across New York City designed to bring women together.

Created from the belief that making genuine friendships as an adult should feel exciting rather than intimidating, Femme Socials was designed for women seeking meaningful experiences beyond transactional networking or surface-level interaction.

Too often, spaces meant to bring people together prioritize status, aesthetics, and social currency over genuine connection.

Femme Socials focuses on designing experiences where women can meet through shared interests, conversation, culture, and real compatibility — making it easier to build meaningful connections while exploring the city together.

The Experience

From museum nights and rooftop lounges to elegant brunches and experiential outings, each event is intentionally designed to feel seamless, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated from beginning to end.

Venues are selected for their atmosphere, energy, and ability to create experiences that feel exciting, feminine, elevated, and safe — allowing guests to relax, be present, and genuinely enjoy the moment.

Through shared activities, natural conversation, and carefully chosen settings, Femme Socials creates space for women to connect organically through common interests, personality, humor, and real compatibility. The only thing attendees need to do is show up, dress beautifully, and remain open to new experiences and meaningful connection.

Friendship

We create space for new, nourishing relationships to form through shared experiences and natural compatibility.

Fashion

In a city defined by style, we embrace fashion as part of the experience — showing up with intention, confidence, and individuality.

Fun

Each event is chosen for its uniqueness, offering experiences many want to try but rarely have the group to do it with.
