In the hyper-competitive world of Manhattan high society, supreme social connector Jill Zarin fiercely protects her inner circle while navigating the elite charity circuit alongside her closest confidante, witty culinary entrepreneur Bethenny Frankel. Operating on a completely different plane is Luann de Lesseps, whose rigid demands for etiquette as a European Countess clash with ambitious Brooklyn outliers Alex McCord and her husband Simon’s desperate attempts to climb the social ladder. Bustling through it all is filterless fashion buyer Ramona Singer, whose blunt critiques and erratic energy constantly disrupt the polite veneer of their gatherings and ignite intense tension with Alex.

The elite circle rallies to plan a high-profile charity gala close to Jill Zarin's heart, using the monumental effort to welcome effortlessly chic former model Kelly Killoren Bensimon into the fold. However, Kelly's reluctance to officially attach her name to the event sparks a biting cold war with an intensely driven Bethenny Frankel, even as Luann de Lesseps attempts to mentor the bohemian newcomer in the rigid ways of Manhattan philanthropy. Meanwhile, Ramona Singer and Jill’s blunt disagreements over gala planning boil over into a bitter personal rivalry on the tennis court, just as a socially recalibrating Alex McCord tries to balance the demanding event with her career.
