The 1995 classic rom-com Clueless reminded everyone that “it does not say ‘RSVP’ on the Statue of Liberty,” but Bravo personality Jessel Taank’s birthday invitations sure did.  

The Real Housewives of New York City star, who turned 41 on May 4, invited Bravolebrities and friends to her Clueless-themed bash at N.Y.C.’s Bar Bastion on Friday night — and they turned up in style! 

Although Bravo cameras filmed the festivities for a future RHONY episode, PEOPLE has the exclusive photos of the fashion-publicist-turned-reality-star’s stylish event, including nostalgia-inducing moments of the birthday gal getting ready for the occasion and posing with her Clueless cake. 

Taank, who was on the season 14 cast of the RHONY reboot, will return for season 15, alongside Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Dana Lichy, Jenna Lyons, Brynn Whitfield and new castmate Rebecca Minkoff.

De Silva, Hassan, Lichy and Lyons were spotted partying it up in Instagram videos taken at the party. Among the other guests were husband Pavit Randhawa, Carly Cushnie, Edward Barsamian, Lexi Wood, Kate Davidson Hudson, Anjula Acharia and Madhulika Sharma.
