For Dune's opening last year, Steve Lewis tried his hand at redesigning the space on North Sea Road. This season, the re-styled décor of Dune has been inspired by the French actress Brigitte Bardot. Once a former fashion model, singer, and animal welfare/rights activist, Bardot is considered to embody the image of the 1950s and 1960s sex kitten. In line with this theme and to exude the sophistication and sensuality of the actress, Dune’s interior has strategically placed white banquets with dark tables throughout the rooms. Black and white prints have been selected to cover the walls to finish off the look of Dune Summer 2008.

So far, Dune is winning as the hottest night spot out east this season and is charging a whopping $2K per table. With Leo D already stopping by in the first weekend, we are looking forward to seeing what else is in store out there.
