Featured in the autumn-winter 2015 show and available at Dior’s shop-in-shop at Bloomingdale’s, the versatile, contemporary satchel in hand-painted python features a double top-handle, an adjustable and removable shoulder strap, silver-tone embellishments and leather-wrapped charms.

Wine is the nectar of beauty at Caudalie, the recently opened French vinotherapy skincare store and spa at the Aventura Mall. Conceived by Mathilde Cathiard-Thomas, the anti-aging skin treatments that harness the power of grape seeds, skins and stems, have a cult following. A few years after Cathiard-Thomas launched the product line, the world’s fi rst wine spa, Les Sources de Caudalie, opened in a castle in the viticultural region of Bordeaux, France. Here in Miami, the new location is designed to ease the stress of a long shopping day by offering on-the-go services at the signature Beauty Barrel Bar, a wine vessel-inspired island. For multitaskers with more time for indulgence, the spa menu includes wide-ranging services, such as facial and body treatments, which can be paired with unique add-ons, like oxygen serums, in private treatment rooms. For the ultimate pampering, the Cocoon Wrap, a 50-minute deep nourishing treatment, promises you’ll emerge feeling light as a butterfly, with rejuvenated skin from chin to soles.

Dior’s Dune Bag comes in a variety of exotic skins like alligator and python.

Series 3 also features high-tech re-creations of fashion catwalks, 3-D-printed mannequins, a working atelier and a white room with white mannequins outfitted in signature Louis Vuitton accessories.

ARCHITECTURE TALKS

DESIGNING DYNAMOS CARLOS ZAPATA AND ROBERT SWEDROE ARE TAKING LUXURY LIVING TO SPECTACULAR NEW HEIGHTS WITH TURNBERRY OCEAN CLUB IN SUNNY ISLES BEACH. Reaching 54 stories high, the 154-residence Turnberry Ocean Club, along prime beachfront in Sunny Isles, is set to redefine luxury living along Florida’s Riviera. Wielded by two industry giants—Carlos Zapata, whose architectural work has won numerous international accolades, and Robert Swedroe, the architect of record best known for pioneering the condominium’s private, direct-entry elevators—the building boasts welldesigned apartments and a three-level private club perched on the 30th floor, with pools, spas, salons and private dining options. Moderated by STYLED Magazine’s editor-in-chief, Anetta Nowosielska, Swedroe and Zapata reminisce about the project that brought them together and contemplate the persistent legacy of good design. You are both making a considerable contribution to the rapidly changing skyline of Sunny Isles. How do you feel about this shift on the horizon? Carlos Zapata: I can honesty say that there is no better person to speak about the evolution of the area than Robert Swedroe, since he has worked tirelessly here and has seen this evolution firsthand. Robert Swedroe: Well, thank you, Carlos. Yes, I’ve worked in this area for decades and the changes are impressive, but not altogether unexpected. We’ve designed Turnberry Ocean Club as if we were going to live in it. What that means is that next to the overhyped buildings in the area, we feel very strongly that our floor

plans are the best option for anyone looking to live in Sunny Isles. This building is designed for the end user, and its public and private spaces are incredibly well-articulated. CZ: Looking from outside in, the most significant part of the building is the Sky Club, a threelevel amenity club. Ocean Club offers not only the best layout options, but also a lifestyle that centers around the 30th floor, with a 360-degree view of all of Sunny Isles with multiple decks and cantilever pools. And I can say that doesn’t exist in any other buildings, not only in Sunny Isles, but [in] all of Miami. How was it to collaborate on this project? CZ: Working with Bob was extremely easy and simple. Bob’s experience in Miami and with Turnberry Associates is impressive. He has done endless work with the client, and he just gets the language. One of Bob’s great attributes is his knowledge of layout and his floor plans, which are so innovative. He brought the layout to another level on this project. I focused on bringing the building from outside in and connected it to the landscape and the outdoors. It’s what we call ‘giving the project its form.’ For me, the collaboration was extremely easy. What about you, Bob? RS: What I really appreciated was Carlos’ understanding of what my team wanted to achieve, which we, in turn, reciprocated. I think that this mutual respect led to such compatibility.

CZ: We never asked each other to compromise. So the collaboration was a true joint effort because of the liberty we have entrusted to one another. What do you think was Swedroe’s biggest challenge on this project? CZ: We were fortunate to have a great team that supported us. But, of course, there were issues, which Bob handled incredibly well. We had some issues pulling the parking out of the water, which presented us with a lot of technical problems. But his team prevailed, and, step by step, it was resolved, until the whole thing came together. Miami codes are really challenging for any developer. Bob’s team has done an incredible amount of work in this area, so he knew exactly what to do. I can think of another challenge, which was the cantilever pool. RS: Well, I’d say that was more an issue for the structural engineers, but… CZ: You are right. And I’d add that any time you aim to do something that hasn’t been done before, you always come up against challenges. Fortunately for us, we were able to make our way out of these issues and, finally, like a puzzle, all the pieces came together. What was your reaction when you learned about plans for the 30th-ﬂoor Sky Club, which hasn’t been done before in Miami? RS: Of course I was so excited about it. That’s not

one on one to say that I had some false notions that it would be easy to accomplish. In essence, I saw this project as two separate buildings in one envelope. There is the private part and the public, and each sphere is equally important. And the amazing thing is that Ocean Club is the only building in the area that has a full, complete model apartment available for prospecting clients. Carlos, you should come down to Miami just to see it. Speaking of residences, what are your private homes like? CZ: I live in the middle of Soho in New York, in an open loft. But if I were to move to Miami, I would definitely move into Ocean Club. I truly believe that these units have amazing feel and balance. RS: I live in a compound with 250 feet on a wide bay. I have four buildings here, which include the principle home that’s essentially five levels, my art studio, a boathouse and the guest quarters. I also have an aviary for my birds. All of it is rather special and it sometimes feels like I live in a zoo. Carlos, next time you are in Miami, you have to come over for drinks.

“With this project, Sunny Isles has gained an iconic silhouette that will help decipher the city’s visual code.” –Carlos Zapata.

Mr. Swedroe, you once said that one is only as good as his last project. How will Ocean Club stand the test of time? RS: It’s going to be hard to top this one, but I’m sure we will think of new things to make architecture even better. There is a rule in this business that I believe in. If you do good, quality work, its value will always increase. I’m very proud of what we were able to accomplish, but I’m always looking forward to the next thing. CZ: There is a strong connection between buildings and the time they were created. In my opinion, every city has a building that defines the area. With this project, Sunny Isles has gained an iconic silhouette that will help decipher the city’s visual code. And that’s no small feat. turnberryoceanclub.com.

SPLASH PANACHE

“When hanging out on the beach or by the pool, I’m always drawn toward airy, breezy fabrics,” says Maria Tettamanti, whose musings can be found on The Wordy Girl (thewordygirl.com), one of Miami’s top fashion blogs. Although the result should be carefree, much thoughtful planning goes into achieving the glamorously tousled look. For Tettamanti and other like-minded glamazons, a head-turning statement is all about loose silks and chiffons, daring accouterments and beautiful palettes. A few strategic tweaks will transform a perfect daytime ensemble into an evening stunner. According to Tettamanti, “A beaded caftan or a maxi dress paired with wedges always does the trick with aplomb!”-AN

GENTLE REBEL

Given the modern man’s relentless pursuit of individuality, it should come as no surprise that the fashion pendulum is swinging away from buttoned-up uniformity toward originality. While only a few courageous lads can embrace fashionable rebellion, a smart and measured act of stylish subversion is good enough to defy the boring conventions. “One can add edge instantly with a slim-fit black leather moto jacket,” suggests Gino Campodonico, the blogger behind The MANnequin Party (themannequinparty.com), selected by The Guardian as the local go-to source for style-savvy men. “This renegade staple can be mellowed out with a shirt, skinny tie and nice slacks.” With leather details, bold accessories and a devil-may-care attitude, looking pulled-together will be anything but an exercise in conformity.-AN

TABLE TRINKETS

As the centerpiece of every living room, the coffee table is the perfect place to showcase your character by displaying a collection of whimsical knickknacks. “A well-curated coffee table is essential in a well-designed home, because it tells a story about the person living in it,” explains Jenny Zalkin, one of the principals at Miami-based Fein Zalkin Interiors (feinzalkininteriors.com). In addition to the tried and tested trifecta of books, flowers and trays, you can spice up an assemblage with distinctive treasures. “A jewelry box fi lled with costume pieces from around the world isn’t just a unique display,” adds Zalkin’s partner, Josh Fein. “It makes for a great conversation starter.”-AN

URBAN DRIFTING FRENCH FASHION ILLUSTR ATOR SOPHIE GRIOTTO SHARES AN INSIDER’S GUIDE TO STYLE AND CULTURE IN MARSEILLE, A CITY THAT IS BECOMING A WELLSPRING OF UNABASHED CREATIVITY.

By ANETTA NOWOSIELSK A

Seated on the terrace at Hotel Sofitel in Marseille Vieux Port that hovers high above the old harbor, Sophie Griotto looks a lot like one of the ubersophisticated illustrated characters for which she is so well-known. Her hair is a French perfection of messy curls, and the feminine dress paired with slouchy boots she chose for the occasion is a study in carefree polish that so many of her compatriots seem to have down to a science. “I’ve always been fascinated by the Parisian woman,” says the artist, who moved from Paris to the south of France seeking a better quality of life. “It’s that mix of sophistication and imperfection that makes her so captivating, even if what she is doing is ordinary, like drinking a cup of coffee or reading a book.” Griotto’s portfolio is filled with snapshots of beautiful protagonists living picture-perfect moments. But it’s her treatment of these refined creatures, a particular color palette and gentle strokes of inks and pencils, that define the artist’s style. Griotto’s creative process is similar to that of a fashion designer. There are mood boards, sketches and fabrics thrown around her studio as she works out the details of illustrations. It may well be why some of Griotto’s most prestigious clients include such noteworthy brands like Dior, Swatch, Clarins and Aventura Mall, the latter for which she created a campaign featuring a dashing woman shopping at the center. “People see things in my work that I don’t necessarily pick up on, but what I put in these images has to do with nostalgia,” explains Griotto. “I made a choice to move to the South because it’s easier to live a fuller life here, but I still

miss Paris. And I think it shows in my images.” While nostalgia may help Griotto shape her art form, Marseille, a historically rich city in the process of overcoming a reputation as a crime hub, increasingly offers some of the aspects of the culture-rich life she left behind in Paris. “Ever since Marseille was appointed the European Capital of Culture, a lot of has changed for the better,” adds Griotto. “There are a lot of things happening here that probably couldn’t take place in cities like Paris or London.” One of Griotto’s favorite places to visit is the Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations. Located at the entrance to the harbor, it was designed by architects Rudy Ricciotti and Roland Carta with the ambitious goal to shed light on the multifaceted history of the region using ethnography, history, archaeology and art history. MuCEM houses exhibits that chronicle the history of the Mediterranean basin stretching from Tel Aviv to Gibraltar in a cubical structure, surrounded by an impressive, light-admitting latticework shell. “This is one of my favorite museums around,” adds Griotto. “It’s modern and fresh, and speaks to the history of this area in a language that wasn’t used before. And the view of Marseille from the top is amazing.” Speaking of spectacular views, Notre-Dame de la Garde, the NeoByzantine church located at Marseille’s highest natural elevation, offers an unparalleled vantage point over the bay as well as the mountain range that envelops the city. One of the many significant qualities of the meticulously ornate basilica is an extraordinary collection of votive paintings. According to Griotto, “The walk up to the top is tough, but all worthwhile.” Another one of her favorite local stops is Théâtre National de Marseille La Criée, picturesquely located at the foot of Vieux Port. Behind the striking facade of this former fish auction house, a company led by Macha Makeïeff showcases a solid repertoire of classical and contemporary opera, theater and dance works. “I try to see everything they put on because La Criée is a worldclass organization,” says Griotto. “The new season starts soon and I can’t wait to see what they will be performing.”

escape Seize Galerie, located in the heart of Notre-Dame-du-Mont, embodies the new art movement happening around Marseille. “I’m hoping to start exhibiting my work in some key galleries, and Seize Galerie is on the top of my list,” explains Griotto. An art center with a strong retail purpose, the gallery is committed to the exploration of graphic design as a modern art form. With many disciplines on display—painting, graphics, drawing, graffiti and video installation—Seize Galerie represents a respected and diverse group of artists like Shaka, Christophe Guinet and Cloë Saint-Jours. For a big-city style fix, Griotto heads to Labo Life Store, a concept shop for the most discerning hipsters. The boutique offers thoughtfully curated up-and-coming and seasoned names in home design, fashion, jewelry and fragrance. Jardin Montgrand is another fashionable spot she frequents. The concept store housed in a beautifully renovated 19th century hôtel particulier features a wonderful mix of authentic architecture and modern design. Besides serving as an incubator for local designers and the destination for more established luxury brands, Jardin Montgrand is home to Arty Café with an adjacent Zen garden. “Living in Paris, I became keenly aware of what clothes and presentation say about people,” explains Griotto. “The South is more forgiving in terms of style, but I still love wearing amazing and unique things I find at these shops.” Although Griotto’s future will keep her rooted in the South for a little longer, art takes her away in more ways than one. “I go back to Paris a couple of times per month, but the amazing thing is that my work is very transportive for me,” she muses. “I may be living near Marseille, but my illustrations take me to places like Paris, Miami and Africa. I live vicariously through them.”

INSPIRING BEAUTY

A LONG AND ENDURING LOVE AFFAIR BETWEEN A DESIGNER AND HIS MUSE CONTINUES TO LEAVE AN UNDENIABLE MARK ON THE FASHION FLOCK.

By CHRISTIANA LILLY

Hubert de Givenchy and his muse, Audrey Hepburn, stroll through Paris.

or decades, fashion designers have worked with celebrities who, like shooting stars, held our collective eye and bewitched us with their twinkle. Th anks to these kindred creatures, the couturiers have found invaluable exposure, all the while pushing forward a billion-dollar industry. “The celebrity always lends a certain amount of presence and cache to the brand,” said Patrick Michael Hughes, a fashion historian and professor at Parsons School of Design. What the stars get out of this symbiotic relationship isn’t just couture in exchange for publicity; they often have the power to ignite the imagination and light the fire of the creative force. ALLURING PIONEERS Hubert de Givenchy first met Audrey Hepburn on the set of Sabrina in 1953, when he created her wardrobe under the legendary Hollywood costumer Edith Head. The fi lm won an Academy Award for best costume design, yet Givenchy did not receive any of the credit. Still, Hepburn demanded that he dress her in every fi lm thereafter—and he did, which marked the start of one of the first and most symbolic of all muse-designer relationships. “She was ravishing,” Givenchy told The Wall Street Journal. “But she was dressed in a way that surprised me: small pants, ballerina flats. I asked myself, ‘Who is this young lady?’ We liked each other immediately.”

AVENTURAMALL.COM/STYLEDMAGAZINE

Th eir friendship carried on through the decades. Givenchy dressed the actress in several fi lms, including Breakfast at Tiff any’s (1961), in which Hepburn wore her iconic black dress, unequivocally redefi ning the idea of chic dressing. When she became involved in humanitarian work with UNICEF, Givenchy continued dressing his muse for events and speaking engagements. Shortly before Hepburn passed away in 1993, she gifted the designer with 25 of the dresses he’d made for her. Eventually, all were donated to museums around the world. In Paris, Yves Saint Laurent was terribly smitten with a model of the moment Betty Catroux, but it was Loulou de la Falaise, who became his sartorial match. Known as an early-1960s party girl, de la Falaise would show up all over town in bright scarves, edgy hot pants and bohemian accessories. Soon, the trendsetter’s inimitable style caught Saint Laurent’s eye. “It was, at that time, what we called the ‘swinging London,’ and Loulou was the perfect example of that movement,” Pierre Bergé, Saint Laurent’s partner, recently told Harper’s Bazaar. “We both loved her immediately.” The duo was so in sync that Saint Laurent named de la Falaise the fashion consigliere of his House; she oversaw a range of products, from couture hats to the Variations line. “Yves had no muse around him,” Bergé explained. “Loulou worked beside Yves, with him. And it was important to Yves to have her there because they spoke the same language. Whenever they talked about a dress or a person, they understood each other immediately.”

profile From top: Loyalty is one of Sofia Coppola’s traits most admired by Marc Jacobs; for Burberry’s Christopher Bailey, Kate Moss personifies modern iconic beauty.

Burberry, alongside another “It” girl, Cara Delevingne--the Moss/ Burberry partnership has endowed the storied British fashion house (think tartan plaids and Heritage Trench Coats) with an unprecedented cool factor. “When I started to visualize what we wanted to capture for My Burberry, I knew it needed to be iconic, but I also wanted it to be modern,” said Burberry CEO Christopher Bailey in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar. Moss, a woman from humble beginnings who rose to glamorous new heights, personified this aesthetic. “We decided, ‘let’s bring Burberry to the people,’” added photographer Mario Testino. “And who was the best person to communicate that? Kate Moss. [She has] that royalty that comes from being, not inherited, but from creating it yourself.”

TITLE REQUIREMENTS With mixed backgrounds, skills and aspirations, there is one thing all muses seem to have in common. “The bottom line is, they’re very glamorous,” Hughes explains. “What makes these women stand out to the designer is their connection to a modern aesthetic and a modern sensibility of life.” Loyalty is at the core of the mutual admiration between director Sofia Coppola and designer Marc Jacobs. The two iconoclasts met at a critical point in their respective careers; he had just debuted the grunge look at Perry Ellis, and she was establishing herself as a director in her own right, despite the dynastic halo above her head, thanks to her Hollywood legend father, Francis Ford Coppola. “In fashion, there is certainly a percentage of people who don’t have the loyalty and integrity in a relationship. They’re looking over their shoulder. They’re being superficial,” Jacobs told Harper’s Bazaar. “But when you meet people that you genuinely like, and there’s authenticity, it lasts, and it’s not an effort to maintain a relationship.” Today, Jacobs continues to design for some of Coppola’s biggest moments, including her 2011 wedding and the night in 2004 when she accepted an Oscar for screenwriting for Lost in Translation. Their collaboration has yielded a beautiful friendship. The designer gave his muse carte blanche to direct the commercial for his Daisy fragrance, and Coppola has modeled in many of Jacobs’ fashion campaigns. Kate Moss needs no introduction. The English supermodel shot to fame when, as a 14 year old, she helped create the “heroine chic” trend of the last millennium. Today she is one of the most enduring faces of our era. Although her unique brand of waifish beauty remains controversial, her business relationship with Burberry is solid as a rock.

THE NEXT GENERATION Today, fashion muses, both famous and otherwise, can be seen splashed across the Instagram and Tumblr accounts of major designers. Savvy marketers like Proenza Schouler and Nanette Lepore know how to harness the power of social media to promote their collections and brands, while images of celebrities and supermodels wearing haute couture are tweeted across the globe in a nanosecond. Indeed, the symbiotic relationship between designer and muse is evolving as fast as technology will allow. Seasons and starlets of the moment may come and go, but the magic of sweet inspiration forever remains the same.

Aerin Lauder photographed at her East Hampton residence, which was once her grandmother Estée Lauder’s home

ACTIONS SPEAK LAUDER Brand-building powerhouse Aerin Lauder learned the most valuable lesson in the world from her beloved grandmother, cosmetics queen Estée Lauder: dreams, drive and passion pave the road to a truly beautiful life. By CRISTINA CUOMO / Photography by BEN FINK SHAPIRO 60

STYLED

Despite her formidable family legacy, cosmetics heiress Aerin Lauder—style and image director of Estée Lauder, and founder and creative director of AERIN—is doing anything but resting on her dynastic laurels. Th ree years ago, she launched her own curated collection, AERIN, a lifestyle brand that includes beauty, home and fashion accessories. She continues to deliver elegance, having branched out with a gorgeous new home and lighting collection, which was introduced in fall 2013, and this month she debuts a new bedding collection. Having grown up with Lauder in New York City, I have witnessed her consistent, effortless style, and I was educated early on about how the beauty business is motivated each season by the colors seen at Première Vision Fabrics, Paris’ biannual fabric show that Lauder attends. As a style icon in her own right and now as a designer, Lauder makes sure there is synchronicity between all the categories in her collection. “The colors of beauty translate into the world of home and fashion. When you love something of mine, say from the upcoming 2016 collection, which will have a lot of green turquoise, you can find the same color palette crossover in accessories, fashion and home. We’re a lifestyle brand, so all of the different categories have to work together,” says Lauder. In 1987, during Lauder’s junior year of high school, her father was appointed ambassador to Austria

under President Reagan, so the family moved to Vienna. As a 16-year-old, she “loved to travel, loved to see new things, experience a new culture,” she says. Observing the style and entertaining habits of Europeans eventually provided her with the inspiration for AERIN’s newest fall collection of frames, boxes and trays in dark browns, ox-blood reds and greens. It is “superbeautiful, feminine and has a modern twist, yet it’s quite traditional,” says Lauder. Lauder’s brand ethos, that living beautifully should be effortless, came from her grandmother. “Estée really taught me that anything can be beautiful if you take the time, but now being a mother of two teenage boys, my approach to living beautifully is a bit more easy and casual. They live in every room of the house. I think that’s really important,” she shares. A natural beauty, she applies that same AERIN’s color palettes crossover in all categories of the brand, which includes beauty, home and fashion accessories.

ease to her personal style. “Every girl should have a great black blazer in her closet. It transitions day to evening, and it’s great for travel. I love when people wear blazers over their shoulders with a dress,” she says. And Lauder keeps her color palette simple. “When we were talking about brand colors and brand DNA, obviously gold was a key part of that, and I love blue. I’ve always had a blue room ever since I was a little girl; blue was one of my grandmother’s favorite colors, and blue is the color of the sea and sky. I was thinking about what would complement blue, and it’s this beautiful beige, which is the accent of the bags and lined in the tissue paper,” she adds. In the coming years, Lauder will roll out more store locations, her first being in Southampton, N.Y., where she spent much of her childhood and, now, her summers living in Estée’s home. “The store has been a wonderful project because it’s where you can see the whole brand all together,” she says. “The world of AERIN is kind of wonderful when it’s showcased all together because you really understand my point of view about style, beauty and home. Half the products we produce ourselves, like the raffia pouches and all the shagreen. The edit can be anything from an iPad cover from Mexico City to a Lisa Marie Fernandez bathing suit to a tunic from London.” Lauder is inspired by like-minded designers. “When you talk about style and femininity, Valentino has done a phenomenal job—their store in Paris, their accessories, their fashion, their runway. I love Stella McCartney and Michael Kors, and I think Proenza Schouler is my go-to favorite,” she confesses. When it comes to the best luxury-brand experience? “Ralph Lauren is the most genius of lifestyle brands. I think he’s constantly reinventing himself. There’s nothing more fulfi lling than when you walk into one of his stores. Even his new restaurant in New York [The Polo Lounge] has that experience of lifestyle and fashion. He epitomizes lifestyle to me,” she says of her peer. Based on her track record thus far, AERIN is not far behind.

Ever

since the exhibit Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty shattered the wildest expectations when it opened in 2011 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, there’s been an increasing awareness of the interplay between form and function. The MET followed up its groundbreaking show with PUNK: Chaos to Couture, Charles James: Beyond Fashion and, earlier this year, China: Through the Looking Glass. At several other museums, curators have also been leading high fashion oﬀ the runway and into the exhibition hall, curating presentations that illustrate the dialogue between art and fashion.

DARK DRAMATIST The late British designer Alexander McQueen catapulted fashion into the next realm by taking dramatic risks. His obsession with detail and ability to provoke visceral reactions shot the troubled Brit to the top of a cutthroat industry. First at Givenchy and then with his eponymous label, McQueen’s imaginative collections were always accompanied by a sense of shock and awe, not to mention countless skulls. Nearly five years after Savage Beauty captivated the New York culturati, London’s Victoria and Albert Museum honors the late artist’s career with the spectacular retrospective.

STYLE IS ETERNAL

FOR THE LOVE OF LANVIN

Yves Saint Laurent, the first French designer to create a pret-a-porter line, revolutionized black-tie eveningwear for women in the 1960s, and this structured femininity became an impetus for gender equality in chic social circles around the world. An ode to Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking, or the tuxedo that symbolized this new philosophy, has recently been on display at The Bowes Museum in Barnard Castle, U.K., along with many of Saint Laurent’s signature creations. In a striking retrospective of his work, titled Style Is Eternal, the designer’s remarkable life and career are contextualized with the help of the Fondation Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent, run by Saint Laurent’s life/business partner. Bergé, who maintains the designer’s 5,000-piece collection in Paris, is also working to develop the forthcoming Yves Saint Laurent Museum in Marrakech, located just a short distance from where the couple lived and where Saint Laurent’s ashes were buried. thebowesmuseum.org.uk

The legacy of a storied maison comes to life at the Palais Galliera in Paris, where the oldest French fashion house still dressing its clientele pays tribute to its underrated founder, Jeanne. The couture company’s longtime creative director, Alber Elbaz, and Olivier Saillard, one of fashion’s premier historians and curators, orchestrated the show to take a deeper look at the lady behind the name synonymous with lamé and la mode through more than 100 sophisticated and delicate pieces. The exhibition’s narrative starts in 1889 and moves through Lanvin’s most representative designs of the art deco period, which were all inspired by Marguerite, the creator’s daughter and muse. The exhibit spotlights the timelessness of Lanvin’s handcrafted creations: Each embodies the savoir-faire of her time with the help of crystals, delicate embroidery and fluid movement. palaisgalliera.paris.fr

This year, New York City’s Brooklyn Museum explores the unconventional significance of footwear with street cred with the help of 150 pairs of sneakers in The Rise of Sneaker Culture, the first-ever curated sneaker exhibit. Shoes from the archives of Adidas, Converse, Nike, Puma and Reebok are on display, along with prized sneakers from the personal collections of hip-hop icons such as Darryl “DMC” McDaniels. Collaborations with renowned artists like Damien Hirst and Shantell Martin have also made the cut with rare sneakers from Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Prada. The show, which debuted at Toronto’s Bata Shoe Museum two years ago, is scheduled to make stops in Atlanta; Toledo, Ohio; and Louisville, Ky. brooklynmuseum.org Tom Sachs’s riff on the Nike sneaker at New York City’s Brooklyn Museum.

The Novela Watch Collectors Club meetings are a celebration of rare horological masterpieces.

It’s About TIME

HIP, YOUNG MEMBERS OF THE NOVELAWATCH COLLECTORS CLUB ARE ALL WOUND UP ABOUT PAST-PERFECT MECHANICAL INSTRUMENTS OF HOROLOGY. by Dirk DeSouza

A FEW KILOMETERS SOUTH of the French border, deep in the Jura mountain range of Switzerland, lies the spiritual epicenter of the global watchmaking industry. Founded in 1656, the quaint village of La Chaux-deFonds is the humble, quiet heart of horology, where the master watchmakers at Rolex, Patek Philippe, Girard-Perregaux, Cartier, Ulysse Nardin, Corum and Omega toil by hand, making the world’s most luxurious wrist candy. Lust, envy and passion are the kinds of words watch lovers cavalierly toss around when describing their deep appreciation for what takes place here, in the little town where Le Corbusier and Louis Chevrolet were born, but where crowns, casings and complications are king. It’s no wonder that the Apple Watch, with its Marc Newson street cred and snappy bands, is the digital flavor du jour, but billionaires, millionaires and hardworking tastemakers are actively clamoring for luxury and starting antique and rare-watch collections. For this new generation of timepiece aficionados, what’s old again is what’s new again. The handcrafted traditions of yesteryear—as seen in incredibly complicated watches made of gold, platinum and ceramic—have come full circle. 70 STYLED

“I started collecting watches right out of law school. I just had to know how they were made, where they were made, the history, the provenance, the complexity of the movements and [to explore] the beauty of the functionality,” says NovelaWatch Collectors Club founder Daniel Novela. “And that led me straight to Switzerland.” The attorney by day, cultural contributor by night organizes chic, intimate, unpublicized but wellattended events across Miami for 50 or so like-minded luxury timepiece geeks. They regularly meet at tony locales, toss back tumblers of fine scotch and share their collections by candlelight. Word of mouth might bring them together as friends, but wrists with Parmigiani Fleurier, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Vacheron Constantin, Richard Mille, IWC and Breguet bond them as brothers. To say they share a love for the art and craft of precision engineering and intricate design is an understatement; it’s also a matter of investment. At this collector’s club, it’s not unusual for a cool million dollars worth of Swiss artistry to be sitting in a pile, respectfully passed between the members, sparking spirited discussion over the finer points of each watch’s inner workings. It’s

THE WATCHMAN COMETH A dapper devotee of horological statementmaking, Daniel Novela picks his favorite time-telling instruments. “Classic in every way, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso Night & Day timepiece was created for British ofﬁcers playing polo in India. To create a watch capable of standing up to the hard knocks of a polo game, this watch features a brilliantly reversible dial.” “Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M Co-Axial Master Chronometer may not be for everyone. It’s huge and retrolooking, but I love it. The Seamaster is water-resistant to an astounding 120 bar. The big and unconventional-looking pusher on the case releases the bezel, allowing it to measure the amount of time spent underwater.” Clockwise from left: Daniel Novela contemplates the complexity of a watch; club members scrutinize the finer points of timepieces’ inner workings; private collections are respectfully passed between the members, sparking spirited discussions; meetings are held at Miami hot spots like Quality Meats.

a sensational blend of gawk and awe, excitement and discovery. While the NovelaWatch Collectors Club is relatively new on Miami’s luxury landscape, watch clubs have become increasingly popular in recent years; the Red Bar Crew, which helped ignite a watch collecting craze in New York City, now has franchise gatherings in cities including Los Angeles, Boston, Toronto and Vancouver.

STYLED

And collectors are now skewing younger and hipper: Jay Z is partial to Richard Mille and Hublot; John Mayer loves his Rolexes; DJ Steve Angello collects Audemars Piguet; and Kevin Hart’s wrist is perpetually adorned with Patek Philippe. “Watch events used to be boring,” Novela says between sips of The Glenlivet at a recent club gathering in the fabulously cozy library at Soho Beach House, where collectors are lingering till midnight. “So I wanted our club to appear young, fresh and engaging—something that melds socializing with education, and also spotlighting magnificent brands. We invite watchmakers and brand owners to come and speak about their watches.” Over the past year, Novela’s intimate talks, dinners and cocktail parties at The Dutch, The Regent Cocktail Club, Quality Meats and other Miami hot spots have attracted increasing numbers of women, as well as newbie collectors with a single, special watch. “You get a bug in your 20s, and the collection grows along with you; so by the time you’re in your 40s, you have a great collection of 15 or 20 watches,” Novela notes. “It’s not an overnight sensation. It’s a journey.”

“Released in 2010, the Rolex Submariner is nicknamed ‘the Hulk’ for its unique green dial and bezel on a stainless steel case. A perfect everyday watch, the Submariner is my pick for a watch that’s sporty yet elegant.” “Ulysse Nardin set a new bar with the Freak series. Rare, complicated and exclusive, Freak Cruiser is one timepiece to have, if, of course, you can afford it.” “I have a special connection to Cartier, since the Cartier Tank Française was the ﬁrst luxury watch I bought after graduating college. I remember purchasing it at Cartier in Marbella, Spain. I still own it today. The Cartier Tank LC Sapphire Skeleton takes the Tank to a whole new level of sophistication and beauty. It’s a man’s watch that any woman would covet.”

Chic En Pointe Ballet dancers follow runway models’ lead when choreographers collaborate with fashion designers to create costumes with a couture twist.

By MICHELLE F. SOLOMON

Miami City Ballet’s new production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is transposed onto Miami’s ocean floor.

oth dance choreographer and fashion designer speak the same language. They share a fascination with the human form. For the couturiers like Valentino Garavani, Jean Paul Gaultier and Norma Kamali, who have all fashioned ballet costumes for renowned troupes, designs are a reflection of the drama in the dance pieces. “First, there’s a conversation between the choreographer and the designer,” explains Marc Happel, costume director of the New York City Ballet. “The choreographers generally have an idea of what they want the costumes to look like. Do they want them to be purely abstract? Do they want them to tell a story? Do they want them to be merely decorative?” The collaboration doesn’t come without trials. “Fashion designers sometimes do need to rethink their visual images when they are creating for ballet because of the movement,” says Boston Ballet resident choreographer Jorma Elo. “It does challenge their brain, but that’s the excitement in this kind of collaboration.” As Miami City Ballet unveils the fruit of its latest alliance with Michele Oka Doner, an artist and designer, here are some of the unforgettable productions that have, in the recent past, blurred lines between runway and stage with dazzling results.

136 AVENTURAMALL.COM/STYLEDMAGAZINE

MICHELE OKA DONER FOR MIAMI CITY BALLET The artistic career of Miami-born Oka Doner has put her squarely in the middle of the fashion world. Oka Doner is as known for her numerous public art commissions as she is for her jewelry designs. To celebrate the 30th anniversary season of Miami City Ballet in March 2016, Lourdes Lopez, artistic director, contracted Oka Doner to design sets and costumes for a new production of George Balanchine’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. “I decided to set the ballet in Miami, underwater, honoring the city that gave birth to me,” explains Oka Doner. “The costumes and sets are based on site-specific underwater plants and creatures both familiar to a general public and more esoteric.” The Marine Invertebrate Museum at University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School is the source of much inspiration for these exceptional designs, which include tutus that resemble jellyfish and seahorses. According to Oka Doner, “This convergence of the visual and kinesthetic arts, science and the natural world has always been the DNA of our collaboration.” For ticket information, visit miamicityballet.org.

culture SARAH BURTON FOR ALEXANDER MCQUEEN FOR NEW YORK CITY BALLET When Alexander McQueen’s creative director was tapped to design costumes for Funérailles at New York City Ballet in 2014, Sarah Burton opted to work hand-in-hand with the piece’s creator and choreographer, Liam Scarlett. The duet, featuring Robert Fairchild and Tiler Peck, explored the theme of interment. Scarlett described the funeral he envisioned in the production as, “a well-dressed event with emotions running wild underneath.” Burton’s design for Peck included a strapless brocade ball gown with gold accents. Fairchild’s garb shadowed the female ensemble and highlighted the same accents in gold, adorning a long, black, collared military-styled jacket entirely open at the front to reveal his bare chest. Creating these costumes in tandem with the choreography was a unique endeavor, since each had to complement the other. Burton’s signature aesthetic was the perfect tribute to Scarlett’s intense composition, which tied the piece back to the House of McQueen, synonymous with spectacle and drama. The costumes for Funérailles explored the theme of interment.

Valentino’s creations complimented the work of NYCB ballet master in chief.

VALENTINO GARAVANI FOR NEW YORK CITY BALLET Although Garavani— internationally known by his first name only— officially retired from a career in fashion in 2008, he continues to design simply for pleasure. Hence, the following year, he embraced the opportunity to fashion costumes for the Vienna Ballet. His adventure in dance continued in 2014, when New York City Ballet paid tribute to the couturier by pairing his creations with the work of Peter Martins, NYCB ballet master in chief. Martins described “Bal de Couture” as a runway at the ballet set to the music of Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Garavani’s favorite composer. The ballet master called the experience a milestone in his 30-year career, adding that Garavani’s costumes were “not only beautiful, they were danceable.” The designer chose to daringly outfit the dancers in ruby red and hot-pink pointe shoes, instead of the usual nude variety, proving that, much like his eponymous label, there is such a thing as a graceful edge.

NORMA KAMALI FOR MIAMI CITY BALLET Celebrities like Beyoncé, Sofia Vergara and Lady GaGa helped define Kamali’s fashion legacy, which is credited with the advent of shoulder pads, not to mention the iconic red bathing suit Farrah Fawcett wore in the famous 1976 poster. But the recognition Kamali earned from her designs for famed choreographer Twyla Tharp was based on her understanding of movement. For the 50th anniversary of Tharp’s work as a choreographer, Miami City Ballet dancers will perform one of her signature works, titled In the Upper Room, wearing Kamali’s designs. Haydée Morales, MCB’s costume designer and director of wardrobe, chose to recreate the apparel originally designed for Tharp’s productions in 1986, adding an element of authenticity to the performance. “The costumes are just one of the artistic elements, along with choreography, scenic design and lighting, that comprise the choreographer’s complete vision for the work he or she is creating,” explains Morales. “It is important for us to recreate the costumes exactly as the costume designer and choreographer envisioned when the ballet was first performed.” For ticket information, visit miamicityballet.org.

Miami City Ballet’s costume designer will recreate Norma Kamali’s wardrobe for In the Upper Room.

Snow White’s costumes celebrated the fairy tale’s dark side.

JEAN PAUL GAULTIER FOR BALLET PRELJOCAJ The French fashion designer was so intrigued by choreographer Angelin Preljocaj’s idea of fairy tales’ dark side that when contacted by the Preljocaj in 2008 to create costumes for Snow White (Blanche Neige), he happily accepted the challenge. A week later, Gaultier unveiled 200 designs for the project, which drew on the bold style that made him a household name in 1990 when Madonna wore his cone bra during the Blond Ambition World Tour. The costumes, which included spike-heeled thigh-high boots and a high-cut black bustier, upheld Gaultier’s reputation as fashion’s most emblematic enfant terrible. However, Blanche Neige wasn’t his first venture of this sort. For a decade, he collaborated with the renowned French contemporary dance choreographer Régine Chopinot with a similarly remarkable outcome.
