“ T
hink of Bal Harbour Shops as the consummate hostess of the best dinner parties that everyone wants to attend—and you’re invited to sit at the head of the table,” said Publisher Carolyn Travis when offering me this job of Editor-in-Chief. Bal Harbour Shops is indeed like a fun, whimsical character in a Capote novel—one with impeccable taste who is dressed to the nines, flitting around barefoot and making sure everyone is happy and having a good time.
Maybe it’s the palm fronds, the koi ponds, or the regal turtles stretching out their necks to greet whomever stops to say hello. Or simply the lush greenery swaying in the warm sea air as one walks by the enticing scenery in the shop windows, and the sultriness of the outdoor cafes buzzing with whispers and laughter. It all seduced me and I said yes. After all, I grew up in Miami Beach and left to pursue my magazine career in New York City after attending the University of Miami, so this is coming home full circle to my childhood playground.
I see Bal Harbour as a conduit of the spirit of the Shops. The quality of its paper, the thickness and feel of its heft, represent the luxury found at Bal Harbour. In turn, the redesign plays a significant role in evoking this elegance and sophistication. It begins on the cover with our new logo connecting the branding of the magazine to its origin.
Inside, illustration plays an important role in introducing each section, just as it has been an essential part of Bal Harbour Shops’ DNA. To enhance the already strong content at the core of this magazine, I have introduced a few new columns (with more to come), such as “3 Days, 2 Nights, 1 Bag” for your next getaway; “The Courtyard Chronicles” for all things Shops-related; and “The Desirables” for your next must-have item, produced by legendary editor (and dear friend) Glenda Bailey, for whom I worked at Marie Claire before she reigned at Harper’s Bazaar The last page is now an homage to the past: called “Flashback,” it’s a reminder for the future of all things once bright and shiny and new. Just like Bal Harbour Shops, a modern throwback with shopping at its core and all the fun that comes with it.

The Fall collections are so rich in textures, colors, and wearable styles that featuring this issue’s fashion portfolios on two covers almost wasn’t enough—it was hard deciding which looks to spotlight! But the joyful whimsy of Thomas Whiteside’s renowned photography really shines through with model Ali Michael in Prada (top). And the way Matthew Sprout plays with light gives model Sasha Kichigina in Gucci a retro modernity on location in Asheville, North Carolina.

When is a handbag not a handbag? asks esteemed fashion editor Glenda Bailey When it is a music box.
Trust Gabriela Hearst to bring her modern sensibility to the design of her latest sure-to-be collectible. Its distinctive shape is reminiscent of a wine carrier ( perhaps why so many women love it?), while Hearst’s signature rose-gold hardware and marble-stone detail add to its elegance. But open the lid and a clever secret is revealed: Notes from “Beautiful Dreamer” by Stephen Foster serenade you. Don’t fret, a manually wound mechanism concealed underneath keeps you from going “Dreamer” crazy if you want to stop the music.

Trudy Crane and Chloé Crane-Leroux debut a plant-based cookbook celebrating the beauty of simple ingredients and cooking with intention.
BY DALYA BENOR
Trudy Crane and Chloé Crane-Leroux have a lot in common. Artists, vegans, and collaborators, the motherdaughter duo has recently completed a new cookbook, “The Artful Way to Plant-Based Cooking: Nourishing Recipes and Heartfelt Moments,” to be released in late September by Simon & Schuster.
and with
With a tendency to finish each other’s sentences—“our minds are pretty weirdly connected,” says Chloé—both mother and daughter, throughout our interview, wax poetic about the moments shared around a table. “They’re probably some of your happiest moments; you’re there with your loved ones, sharing in traditions, rituals,” says Chloé. “And for me, now, it’s just so special because I get to relive those beautiful memories that I had as a child, but now I get to recreate them as an adult. That is such a privilege.”
“I wanted to shift toward a healthier lifestyle after a little too much junk—the typical college-student diet,” she says of her choice to give up eating meat. “After about six months, I went full-on and became vegan.” After their first vegan cookbook in 2017, the French-language “Saisons La table végane,” Trudy followed suit. “I felt so good, and was inspired to cook a lot more and to discover ways to cook that would be interesting as a vegan. [Chloé ] became way more creative in the kitchen and trying all kinds of great things, and I think that’s what led us to writing the second cookbook.”
Trudy has always inspired Chloé to pursue a creative path, encouraging her to explore her artistic interests. When Chloé decided she wanted to be a fashion photographer at a young age, Trudy gave her a camera to experiment with.
During the pandemic, Chloé says she was “cooking three times a day testing recipes, really expanding my food culture and my food habits,” which gave her the runway to develop a concept for their collaborative cookbook. Shot (by Chloé) in
“The way we have always lived is very much about those moments in the day spent hosting friends and family,” says Trudy. “It’s really recognizing the beauty of the moment.”
Both highly creative, Chloé and Trudy have followed a life path that has led them towards artistic endeavors—Chloé is a food and lifestyle photographer, while Trudy has, for the last decade, followed her passion for making ceramics. So, when the opportunity arose to develop a new cookbook, the two barely needed to brainstorm. “We had such a specific vision of what we wanted. Not only is it a cookbook, but it’s so much about our life and how we view food, beauty, and togetherness,” says Chloé. “We want to inspire people to create space with their family, their friends—but also by themselves. You can cook for yourself in a simple and beautiful way, creating your own moment that will make you happy and fulfilled.”
For Chloé, who grew up in Montreal, the pivot toward a plant-based life sparked soon after she moved to New York in 2014 to complete her BFA in Photography at Parsons School of Design.

Girona and Mallorca, Spain, the journey from start to cookbook was not without its hurdles. From navigating tiny mountainous roads “in a huge car,” to losing their luggage, which contained many of the props and ingredients they had planned to shoot with, the motherdaughter team persevered—thanks in part to the natural beauty of the Spanish countryside.
“We reached our destination after literally crying the whole way up, and we both stopped and looked out over this valley that was absolutely stunning,” says Trudy. “We encourage each other to see the beauty in all things, all the time.”
The family traveled to Europe often while Chloé was growing up. The South of France, in particular, provided plenty of inspiration for the basis of what would eventually become “The Artful Way to Plant-Based Cooking.” With incredibly beautiful images, fresh and simple ingredients, and easy-to-follow recipes, it makes vegan cooking accessible for anyone. “We really want to inspire people with the type of lifestyle that we actually live,” says Chloé. Trudy, who worked for 35 years as a marketing director for Canadian fashion retail company Reitmans, decided she wanted to leave corporate life for a more artistic path when she turned 50. For the last 12 years, Trudy has been a full-time ceramic artist, creating beautiful, organically shaped plates and bowls in white porcelain and stoneware. Five years ago, Trudy was scouted by a modeling agency, and has now added runway model—she recently

The fashion genes clearly run in the family—from Trudy’s time in the fashion world, to Chloé’s work as a fashion photographer, shooting for brands like Chanel and Dior, each has developed her own sense of style when it comes to dressing. While Trudy spends most days in the studio, making ceramics while wearing jeans and an apron, she opts for a classic and timeless style when she’s out of the studio. Chloé’s style is much more feminine and fashion-forward—a pivot from her earlier years on set, when she wore her photographer’s uniform of jeans and a T-shirt.
Still, the two go between each other’s closets. “Chloé used to steal my blazers when I was working,” Trudy says with a laugh. “I’ve always been a blazer girl!” Chloé interjects, adding that she’s grateful to still have her mother’s vintage Chanel and Prada pieces. “And I mean, we do have the same shoe size.”

Under the creative direction of Daniel Lee, Burberry continues to innovate bringing new life to the ever-classic trench coat.
BY KAT HERRIMAN
The Burberry trench coat is more than just a wardrobe staple; it’s an emblem of British heritage. Crafted over a century ago by Thomas Burberry, the trench coat’s enduring appeal lies in its blend of utility and collar-clutching drama. Today, under the creative direction of designer Daniel Lee, Burberry continues to perfect and reimagine the iconic piece, pushing it to embrace the evolving demands of our times.
Burberry founded his eponymous brand in 1856 with a vision to create outerwear that would protect wearers from all elements. Dissatisfied with the waterproof fabrics of the time, which were often unbearably stiff, Burberry set out to innovate. In 1879, he invented gabardine, a tightly woven fabric that’s waterproof and breathable. From gabardine, Burberry created the Tielocken, a precursor to the trench coat. Its success laid the groundwork for what would become one of the most iconic garments in fashion history. The trench coat as we know it today was born from function, designed for British military officers during World War I. Its practical details—like epaulets for displaying rank and D-rings for attaching equipment, appreciated by generations of soldiers and explorers including Sir Ernest Shackleton—have since become synonymous with the coat’s timeless silhouette.
Thanks to its quick adoption by the jet set, the Burberry trench coat transcended its military origins to become a symbol of British refinement and Hollywood glamour. When playing the fashion plate Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Audrey Hepburn couldn’t just run into the rain in any old coat. It had to be a Burberry trench coat. In Michael Curtiz’s Casablanca, what else can you imagine Humphrey Bogart wearing when saying goodbye to Ingrid Bergman in that film noir growl? Here’s looking at you, kid Or how about more recent examples, like Meryl Streep in Kramer vs. Kramer or Daniel Craig’s James Bond? What do these characters have in common? A certain savoir-faire attitude and mystery that has become synonymous with the trench. Each appearance on and off screen has added to the mythology and the main character feeling it bestows upon its wearer.
Part of what has ensured the trench coat’s longevity is its unwavering commitment not only to formal appeal but to its meticulous assembly.
The craftsmanship of the trench coat has remained a hallmark of Burberry’s DNA. Made in Castleford, Yorkshire, for over 50 years, each piece is cut from gabardine, the technical fabric that remains at the heart of the house. The construction process is intricate, with each specialist tailor taking a year to master the stitching of the collar, a critical part of the coat’s structure. More than 180 stitches are needed to create the fluid curve that ensures the collar sits perfectly on the neck, so that it can later be clutched madly during a climactic makeup kiss in the rain.
And while their collars are proprietary, it is perhaps not what people think of first when looking to identify a Burberry coat in a crowd. It’s the iconic Burberry check lining, introduced in the 1920s, that has become a defining hallmark. Originally used to line raincoats, the check evolved into a status symbol and emblem of Britishness. For his Spring 2025 collection, Lee rendered the house’s classic check in green and brown tones, recalling not only the landscape of the Castleford factory but his own childhood spent alongside it in rain-lush Yorkshire. In a deeply personal

Comprising roughly 7,000 square miles, the Hudson Valley region directly north of New York City is emerging as a new luxe destination. Move over, Hamptons.
BY MARK ELLWOOD
A misty morning paddleboard session at the all-inclusive Chatwal Lodge in White Lake, New York.
Think of upstate New York’s layout like an open hardcover: the spine is the wide, fast-flowing Hudson River, a waterway that so transfixed a clutch of 19th-century painters they took their collective name from it. The left leaf of that book to the west is the Catskills: craggy and mountainous, this region has a kitschy sheen deeded from a co-starring role in Dirty Dancing, and the many camps that populated the area in the 1950s and ’60s. The right-hand page, on the river’s eastern flanks, is flatter, more rolling hills and farmland. Wealthy families from the city once built grand estates here—the erstwhile Vanderbilt Mansion in Hyde Park is now a museum, for example. The appeal of the entire region, though, is consistent, at least according to interior designer Marco Scarani, who with his partner Jamie Creel owns a store here, Creel and Gow. Think of this slice of countryside as a breath of fresh air compared with the East End, he says, in every sense. “Thirty years ago, the Hamptons was a paradise, but it’s been overdeveloped,” says Scarani. “Here, there’s still a sense of community and everyone can connect. That’s what the city and the Hamptons don’t have any more.”
For 30 years, rodeo champ–turned–real estate mogul Steve Dubrovsky has called hundreds of acres in Sullivan County his home base. It’s where he’d retreat to his own ranch-like estate to ride, hike, and immerse himself in the rugged outdoors. It’s an experience he hopes others will be able to enjoy when he opens a new hotel this fall not far from his home in the Catskills: the Driftwood Ranch Resort, with barely a dozen rooms, overlooking longhorn cattle and horses grazing in the surrounding greenery. “So many people have a fantasy like this, especially after Yellowstone. I want people to come who want to learn to ride, or enjoy hiking, or if someone is writing a book they can do it here,” he says, “I want it to be a magical place.”
Dubrovsky’s new project isn’t his first here: indeed, he was the developer behind The Chapin Estate, an upscale, 2,500-acre gated community, which is also home to the two-year-old The Chatwal Lodge. A sister site to the namesake hotel in Manhattan’s Midtown, it’s open year-round, with an all-inclusive approach that bundles outdoorsy adventures into the overnight rate—everything from ice skating to archery, horseback riding, or watersports on the reservoir nearby. It just debuted a trio of new
Treehouses, wooden cottages suspended 15 feet from the ground amid the mature maples and oaks on the property. Nearby Ulster County is where Auberge Resorts Collection opted to open its rival, Wildflower Farms: this is much larger, with more than 60 freestanding cabins dotted around its 140-acre site. Of course, there’s a farm, but it’s interactive: sign up for cooking classes at the education center, or venture out on foraging trips. Make sure, too, to book a tour at Tuthilltown Spirits distillery next door, which has been making impressive New York state bourbons since it opened more than 20 years ago, as well as Catskill Provisions Distillery, where Madrid-born Claire Marin uses raw wildflower honey collected from a network of hundreds of local hives as the playful basis for many of her liquors. Don’t forget Lew Beach, either: Laurance Rockefeller has poured a chunk of fortune into investing in the area since the ‘80s—as a result, fly fishing–loving friends like Dan Rather have become fixtures. If you’d like to immerse yourself in the landscape, book a night at the quirkiest option here, the Hemmelig Rom , a hand-hewn single cabin made from salvaged red oak and nestled in the woods. It was built by British-Norwegian artist Jason Koxvold—the name is Norwegian for secret room, a nod to the way it

disappears into the landscape. “When I first moved to New York, I didn’t think super hard, and I just assumed it was skyscrapers all the way to Canada,” he jokes. “The Catskills have a reputation for having similar beauty to the Hamptons, but without all the pomp and circumstance.”
Certainly, the east of the river, anchored by towns like Rhinebeck and Millbrook, has always been a tonier area of upstate, thanks to the legacy of those wealthy families—FDR’s Presidential Library and Museum isn’t far from the whimsical Olana, Frederic Edwin Church’s folly-like former home. Scarani likens this side of the Hudson to Tuscany, both for its rolling valleys and the artful combination of rustic and rarefied. Scarani and Creel, who also have homes in Tangier and Paris, had long stayed with family nearby, before finally deciding to showcase their inventory of art and design curiosities here in early 2021—a nod to the injection of new, wealthy residents relocated to the region as a result of the pandemic. Scarani raves about the restaurant Canoe Hill in Millbrook—“The oysters there are petite, but delicious, and they’re better to me than the ones in France”—and the hikes around the Lowlands at Cary Institute, a nonprofit eco-research center. Come to this corner of the state for more equestrian options, as the landscape is studded with riding centers, and book supper at Stissing House in Pine Plains. That’s where much-lauded British chef Clare de Boer, renowned for King, her downtown New York restaurant, has commandeered one of America’s oldest taverns, dating back to the 1780s. Two summers ago, de Boer rebooted the maze-like Dutch Colonial structure as a homey, high-end restaurant; don’t miss the homemade potato chips—salt and vinegar–flavored, British-style, of course.
And it’s in this region that the area’s next evolution is centered. After several years of rumors, Soho House finally confirmed that it would open the first overseas iteration of its Farmhouse—think five-star luxury in a rustic, family-friendly setting—just south of Rhinebeck, close to the river. Grasmere House, a 19th-century estate set on 250 acres, is currently undergoing a reimagining for the project, though there’s no firm date for opening. Perhaps the splashiest upcoming debut nearby, though, is international wellness chain Six Senses It spent $13.75 million on an off-market deal to buy up another huge property (more than 230 acres), which includes a biodynamic farm. It’s planning to construct a network of cottages on the property, should local permitting allow, and create the ultimate spa getaway for New Yorkers—barely two hours’ drive from the city. It already offers a homestay-like experience, for up to 20 adults, at a cluster of old farmhouses there dating back to the 1750s. Think of it as Yellowstone, settler-style.
Not to miss: dinner at Stissing House’s homey, British-style restaurant.
