BAUME & MERCIER DINNER The engagement of Lisa Salzer, Lulu Frost designer, and Marlon Taylor-Wiles, a dancer, choreographer, and fellow designer, was cause for celebration. The Daily Summer and Baume & Mercier did so in style with a dinner at c/o The Maidstone in East Hampton. Harper’s Bazaar’s Tara Lamont-Djite, stylist Paul Djite, United Arrows’ Masako Kaufman, and Troy Alexander were among those on hand to toast the couple and check out the latest styles from Baume & Mercier’s Promesse collection, which nods to the brand’s heritage of celebrating major life moments.

DE GRISOGONO DINNER Fine jewelry and the Hamptons are natural bedfellows, so The Daily Summer and De Grisogono were compelled to gather a group of baubleloving chicsters for dinner at c/o The Maidstone in East Hampton. Gillian Miniter was the evening’s gracious host, and she greeted friends like Di Mondo, Suzanne Johnson, and Cricket Burns over a delicious meal of seared salmon and chilled corn soup.

SUMMER TALK! With Gillian Miniter
Louisa Barranca and Denise De Luca
FA S H I O N W E E K D A I L Y. C O M
Any summer highlights so far? The highlight of my summer was the time I spent in Los Angeles. My daughter Serena was studying at UCLA, and I moved into the L’Ermitage in Beverly Hills and loved it! We also spent a lot of time enjoying New York City this summer, as well as several short trips to places like Saratoga, Lake Placid, and, of course, the Hamptons! Who are you wearing tonight? Lela Rose. How often do you get to the Hamptons? Most summers we come out three or four times, but this year we had so much going on we only came twice, both times to East Hampton. What should every woman look for in a piece of jewelry? Jewelry is a very personal item, and I think the most important thing is to love it, whether you will wear it every day or twice a year. If you love it, you will always look forward to putting it on and you will feel good wearing it. What was your first piece of jewelry? I was given a baby pearl necklace when I was born, and I still have it. It is very sweet. r y an li u

Where Are They Now? As summer winds down, we thought And this is now!
Lizzie Grubman Last mention: 2011
That was then…
What have you been up to since 2011? It seems like forever! I’m really happy. My son Harry is going to be 9 in December, and Jack is going to be six and a half. They’re like little men now. I couldn’t be happier. You grew up in the Hamptons—what keeps you coming back? It’s my home away from home. As much as I love to hate, in a way, I love the off season and coming out here when it’s quiet. August is crazy for me. I feel like an Uber driver, driving my kids back and forth. You can’t say no to two beautiful faces. What’s new with your business? We’ve expanded in different areas. We still do PR, which is doing better than ever. You can’t look away from your roots, and I do very well in damage control PR. People hire us when they have a situation. We also do management and now TV development. Clients come to us with ideas for shows. We’ve expanded our music department and, keeping up with the times, we now have a full-blown social media department. Would you ever do a reality show again? Never! I’d produce one. I’d like to possibly be on a panel of a talk show. Lizzie Grubman on The View? Something of that sort. I might be too nice, though. Are you happier now than when we last chatted? There’s nothing better than seeing your kids grow up. I’m at the happiest point I’ve ever been.
we’d take a brief moment to check in on some of your favorite interviewees from years past. Remember Lizzie Grubman, Jonathan Cheban, and Brian Mazza? Who could forget! BY EDDIE ROCHE Jonathan Cheban Last mention: 2012 Have you been spending a lot of time in the Hamptons this summer? I have! I’m going on a tour in September to promote Dishh.com, my gossip site about young Hollywood. We had seven million people on the site this month. We’re going on a 25-city tour, doing appearances at schools. My face is going to be on the bus. It’s the kind of luxury bus that Ozzy Osbourne would use. Thoughts on Montauk? It’s not my scene. Everyone tries to con me into going out there, but I can’t get into it. It’s a little too grassroots for me. The Hamptons is luxury, and I like to keep it that way. If I wanted to go to Montauk, I’d start going to upstate New York. There are no Jersey guidos, but it’s like a frat party. You went to the Jersey Shore on Keeping Up With the Kardashians! Kim and I went to Seaside. The only thing that New Jersey and the Hamptons have in common is that the houses are made of wood. Are you totally done with PR? I’ve been done with PR for years. It drives me crazy when people associate me with PR. It’s like calling me a doctor. How’s the love life? It’s good! I’m on and off again with this girl from Florida. Did you know about the Caitlyn Jenner’s Vanity Fair cover beforehand? I didn’t. I was with Kim when it came out, and we were having lunch at ABC Kitchen. I was shocked! She’s gorgeous. Kim is bigger than ever. Are you surprised? No. It feels amazing to be a part of the Kardashian machine. I’m a cartoon in her game, which is so cool.
Cover SHoot SCOop!
Brian Mazza Last mention: 2012 How has life changed for you since we last chatted? I’m now the President of Paige Hospitality Group. We’re opening our fifth Ainsworth this fall in midtown in Manhattan, and have created a new brand, The Chester, which is a biergarten in the Gansevoort Hotel. I’m also a brand ambassador for Lululemon. How’s romantic life? I recently married a gorgeous and intelligent woman, Chloe Melas. We just got back from the third leg of our honeymoon, where we traveled through Spain and Greece. I was lucky enough to find a woman who is on the go more than me sometimes, so we have mutual respect for our insane and busy lives. You told us in 2012 that you were over blondes! I married a brunette. That’s what I wanted! When are the kids coming? The thought of us being parents makes me very happy and will hopefully come soon. Chloe is going to be a great mother. I am super, super, super excited to be a young father. How much time do you spend in the Hamptons now? Mostly every weekend. The Hamptons has changed so much since the last time we spoke. It’s now harder to get a workout class than it is to get a table at a club. How close are you to the club scene? We still have Southampton Social Club, so we’re out east every weekend during the summer months. Are you still against girls wearing flats? My wife can wear whatever she wants! But I like to see girls in heels when they go out. There is a time and place for flats.

CELEB ATTACK!
With Zach Erdem, owner, 75 Main Before taking over 75 Main, you worked for the infamous Nello for more than six years. I was running both his restaurants: Nello’s in New York City and Nello’s Summertime in Southampton. But Nello lost everything to another man, who wasn’t someone I could work with. Plus, 75 Main was always in my mind. I was a bartender there in 2002! What’s the scoop on your menu? My chef is Mark Militello. We created a great menu with local ingredients; we serve a classic American brunch menu seven days a week, and we have the largest dinner menu in town. The restaurant is always packed. Why? The food is great, the atmosphere is great, and the people are amazing. The location is great too, and I’m here seven days a week—and nights—so I take care of my customers personally. Leonardo DiCaprio, Joe Biden and his family, Jimmy Fallon, Barbara Walters, J. Lo, the Kardashians, and Alec Baldwin come to the restaurant. 75 Main St., Southampton, (631) 283-7575
AND BECAUSE WE REALLY, REALLY LOVE YOU… We refuse to let you leave the East End rental without taking a little memento of a summer well spent, so we asked LT Burger’s chef Laurent Tourondel to share his famed recipe for a S’mores Shake. 9 oz. vanilla ice cream 4 oz. milk 6 pieces toasted marshmallows 1 tsp. vanilla extract Blend all ingredients in a Vitamix for 30 seconds. Garnish with whipped cream, toasted marshmallows, crushed graham crackers, and chocolate drizzle.

☛ Sir Paul McCartney dining with wife Nancy and her son at Philippe Chow’s Philippe in East Hampton. ☛ Scrubs’ Christa Miller noshing in the garden of Sotto Sopra in Amagansett. Her order? Lobster and avocado salad. ☛ Meanwhile in Wainscott, Jimmy Fallon dined with friends at Osteria Salina. ☛ And in Nick & Toni’s news, Jack Nicholson enjoyed some zucchini chips (darling, we can sympathize), Harvey Weinstein dined with Andrew Saffir and friends, and Christie Brinkley ate with Donnie Deutsch. ☛
SEAFOOD 411!
With Eric Miller, chef, Bay Kitchen Bar How do you source seafood? We source from various local fisherman, clammers, and oyster men who we buy from directly. I like Stuart’s Seafood because of his long-standing relationships with local resources. How did you find your location? We always wanted a waterfront with a perfect sunset. When we saw this spot we knew we were home! Our restaurant could easily be the most beautiful place on Earth, perfectly situated at the mouth of Three Mile Harbor in East Hampton, and as bountiful as any place as well. What’s the scoop on your happy hour? The idea was to share the sunset with the community, and what better way than featuring local oysters at a reasonable cost and with great rosé or Muscadet wine? I love the positive energy the sunset happy hour brings to the room, and I think that stays with us all night long. 39 Gann Rd., East Hampton, (631) 329-3663

Behold! The “UNDERWATER” poolside playlist: “Trainmann (Tensnake Franceman Mix),” Lauer. Stacey: “If this song doesn’t make you want to see how far you can swim undefeated, I don’t know what will. A true swim gem.” “Next to You,” Poolside. Michelle: “I could float all day long to this dreamy tune.” “Watch Me (Whip/NaeNae),” Silento. Stacey: “You know how your kids always say, ‘Mommy, watch me, watch me?’ Well, this is the song for that moment.” “Panama,” The Avener. Michelle: “Groovy, gentle wave ripples.

RICKEY BUSINESS
For Kyle Ford, spirits guru and Cointreau’s cocktail expert, summer is best served with a Rickey in hand. Meet the guy who just might have the coolest job in the industry. BY ASHLEY BAKER
Special Promotion
What inspired your love of spirits? Cocktails. Another lifetime ago, I was working in finance in my hometown of Sacramento and traveling to San Francisco almost every weekend with my wife. I became enamored with the cocktail renaissance going on there and truly admired the talented individuals on the front line resurrecting a time-honored craft. I was searching for a creative outlet and I had found it. I quit my job, moved to SF, and landed my first bartending position three weeks later. What was the first proper drink you ever tasted? I have a pretty vivid memory of being served a Reviver No. 2 early in my San Francisco days. It was the first cocktail I ever had that really highlighted the importance of precise proportions. In this case, equal parts gin, Cointreau, Lillet, and fresh lemon juice. Oh, yeah, and a dash or two of absinthe. Mmm. How did you end up with Cointreau? I’d have to thank Steve Schneider of Employees Only. Someone from the company had just done a Cointreau training at EO and mentioned to the staff that they were looking to hire a mixologist. I received a text from Steve that I should apply. Three and a half years later, I’d say it worked out. I had always said I wasn’t going to step out from behind the bar to represent a brand until the right brand had an opening. Cointreau has always held a special place in my mind, since it is at the heart of so many classic cocktails. What about its taste and texture appeals to you? It’s a clean and crisp orange flavor-bomb. Cointreau’s neutral spirit base makes it incredibly versatile for use in cocktails. Of all the orange liqueurs out there, it has the highest level of natural essential oils from bitter and sweet orange peels. The high concentration of essential oils can be seen if you add Cointreau to ice water. The contact with ice turns the Cointreau into an opalescent color. In cocktails, Cointreau has a viscosity that helps bring all of the ingredients together. This was precisely
the goal of Edouard Cointreau when he introduced the now-iconic spirit in 1875. What about the heritage interests you most? Edouard Cointreau’s vision. The man was a marketing genius, pioneering the use of film, mascots, the automobile, famous artist-commissioned posters, pop-up bars, and more for the promotion of his brand long before these types of concepts were popular. We now have a treasure trove of archival pieces that speak to Cointreau’s incredible brand history. What is your favorite way to drink it? I love Cointreau paired with gin. The classic White Lady, just gin, Cointreau, and fresh lemon juice, is what you will find in my hand most often. But the Cointreau Rickey, made with three simple ingredients—Cointreau, lime and soda—is my go-to for an easy summer drink that is great for entertaining. What are the essential components of a Rickey? Quality ingredients. Two ounces of Cointreau serves a perfect base, with its prominent citrus notes. One ounce of fresh lime juice is a must, as a cocktail is only as good as its ingredients. I then prefer to top with a sparkling water, like Perrier. You can easily customize this template by muddling some fresh fruit and herbs first. I love it with strawberry and basil. Where is your favorite place to enjoy one? Great cocktails are always best in great company. So, obviously, a Rickey is best enjoyed with friends. In the Summer, there is nowhere better than on a rooftop or patio—or pool or beachside, if you are that lucky. Your wife is also in the spirits world. Who makes a better cocktail? Are you trying to get me in trouble? Well, I like to say that the bartender’s intention is a vital, yet overlooked, ingredient in a cocktail. For me, there is no better cocktail, not even by my own hands, than when my wife takes the time to carefully craft something for me. all photos courtesy

Alina Ilie
Where are you from? Bucharest, Romania! What’s the fashion like there? They are trying to copy what’s going on in the States and in Europe. They aren’t there yet. Maybe in 20 years. Are there malls? We have a few. Where were you discovered? I was waiting for the tram in Bucharest and a manager found me. It’s a crazy life sometimes, but I love it. What’s the best job you’ve had so far? Two seasons ago I was a Givenchy exclusive. Working with Riccardo Tisci is an amazing experience. He has vision and knows what he’s doing. How do you feel about the end of summer? Kinda sad, because you have to add layers on. Are you excited about fall? I’m excited about Fashion Week!

Karina T. Where are you from originally? South Brazil. I’m from a really small town, and I’ve lived in New York for four years. Are you friends with a lot of Brazilian models? Camila Costa is a very good friend. What’s been your favorite job so far, besides this one? I did Vogue Italia, which was really cool. Every job is really special. It’s a hard to pick a favorite. What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling? I’m still figuring that out. I have a project with two friends where we’re creating a fashion brand, which is coming soon. We don’t have a name yet, but it’s going to be really cool. We’re working with a Brazilian artist. How do you feel about autumn? I’m more of a summer girl because I’m from Brazil, but I’m happy. It’s time for a change. What are you looking forward to? I’m going away. I need a vacation, so I’m probably going to Brazil. I can’t wait. What designers do you wear? Alexander McQueen, Céline, and Valentino. I like Rag & Bone and Acne for day-to-day.

An Artist’s Eye Nina Runsdorf first started coming to the East End in her teens as a competitive horseback rider. Now, the fine jewelry designer, known for her exquisite one-of-a-kind pieces, spends her summers in Sagaponack unwinding with her family—and rolling through town in her brandnew baby blue Fiat. We caught up with Runsdorf for a glimpse into her charmed life. BY PAIGE REDDINGER PHOTOGRAPHY BY RYAN LIU Did you always want to go into the jewelry business? I actually started when I was 11. I have always had a passion for fashion, especially jewelry. I was 8 when we moved from New York City to the country. I was raised on a farm in upstate New York. My mother had a workbench in the kitchen, and I’d make jewelry while I was watching the only two channels we had on our television. What was your first foray into jewelry-making as an adult? My sister and I started a company called Nianna, Nina and Ann, and we started doing watch pins and semiprecious costume pieces. Bergdorf’s was my first account. It lasted for a few years until one day my mom was like, “Okay, girls, you need to work harder.” I ended up getting a job with Ralph Lauren. I started in sales when the store opened and when I met Ralph, I started to collect the turquoise jewelry that he put in the RRL Ranch. How did you transition from sales to jewelry curation? Ralph knew I grew up on a farm and that I knew about American furniture, so he asked me to buy all the furniture for the country store at the Rhinelander Mansion on Madison. He wanted me to continue doing that, but that wasn’t my vision—to go to antique shows. I really wanted to go into design. I used to make these suede bracelets with old harness parts. Dena Cohen, who was the head buyer for jewelry at Ralph Lauren, asked me to make three of them. She gave one to Tasha Polizzi, who in those years was fashion director for Mickey Drexler at Banana Republic. She opened the box and said, “Oh, my God, who made this? I want her to do accessories with Banana.” Where did you land after Banana Republic? A brand called Wathne was making bags for Banana at the time—they were three Icelandic sisters and I became their fashion director. I ended up being with them for 10 years and we built this incredible company, but it closed. I had my two children at the time so I couldn’t do the hours, so I left fashion and worked parttime for my father-in-law on W. 47th Street at Runsdorf Associates, which is when I got my GIA certification [to be able to certify diamonds] and learned the business there for six years. It was like the trading floor. In 2005, I launched NSR. I think my next step is to do more lifestyle with my own brand. What would be the next category? I started doing tabletop accessories—candles with diamonds. We’re in the process of deciding what’s next, but what would be very natural is a bag, a shoe, an accessory. Which designs of yours do you consider iconic? The sliced diamonds. They were definitely what put me on the map. And my rose-cut diamond flip ring, which was my first design. It started the company. Do you have a favorite piece that you own? I have a few pieces. I have a very big pair of sliced diamond earrings, and I always have my flip ring on. I also have a pair of sliced African rubies that are amazing. In 2009, I took a trip to India—I had never been before—and when I saw the colors I was FA S H I O N W E E K D A I L Y. C O M
so inspired that I went into the factories and basically started slicing color. Really, that was the second trend. Sliced diamonds first, color second. What inspired your most recent collection? I’m starting to use not the most perfect emeralds—they have personality. I’ve also gone into bigger pieces because I think it’s the trend. I’m working with Pariba. I made this big bracelet last year that sold immediately, so I decided to make a second one. Everything I do is one-of-a-kind and all about the stones. How should jewelry be worn? Jewelry should become a part of who you are. It shouldn’t wear you; you should wear the jewelry. Who is the Nina Runsdorf client? I think it’s the woman who already has her big diamond and wants to walk into a room wearing something that’s very different from everybody else. She wants to be unique and be more bespoke and original. What designers do you like to wear? Today I’m wearing Roberto Cavalli. I like Brunello Cucinelli—I love the quality. I like the bespoke Hermès pieces. I think Gucci looks great and fun right now because it’s ’70s and I love the ’70s. I have fashion in my blood. When I was little my mom used to say, “Go out and play,” but I was very busy tearing pages out of magazines. I was obsessed, so I think you’re born with it. Was your mother in fashion? Yes! She had a company when I was a child called Ulla. She was the first person to bring fake fur to ski-wear in the U.S. She did these amazing silk turtlenecks that zipped up the neck, very 1960s style. Now she owns a company called Wild Thymes. I grew up with a very entrepreneurial, talented mother and definitely inherited it. You have an impressive modern art collection. Tell us about it. I only want to hang up a painting when I know the artist. Every piece of art that I have is personal. I love emerging artists, like Jack Greer—he’s very up-andcoming. I collect Richard Prince, and I have Adam McEwen, Robin Rhode, and Cyprien Gaillard. Also Nir Hod, Ahmet Ögüt, Anne Collier, and Jessica Lichtenstein. Rashid Johnson, as well. I went to look at a fabulous bubblegum painting of his with my daughter and she looked around and there were these huge mirrors by Rashid. Kate, my daughter, was very little and said, “I want you to buy one of those. I love it!” I asked Rashid to make one for her birthday, so he made her a small one, which we have in our home. How long have you been coming out to the Hamptons? I’ve been coming for years and years, when it was all potato fields. I started riding horses when I was 4 years old, and I was a big competitor, so in the summer as a teenager I’d come out and ride at Topping Riding Club. I would also show in the Hamptons Classic when it was very small—it’s not what it is today. Do you go to the beach? One of my favorite things to do is pack a picnic late in the afternoon and just go to either Gibson or Townline, the little private beaches where there’s really nobody. I take a blanket, a good bottle of wine, some cheese, and just relax. Do you travel a lot? I go to Greece and Turkey very often in the summer. We travel all the time, so it’s nice to come here and just be with the family. To me, the Hamptons is about being together with your family. J E W E L RY: C O U RT E SY

READY OR NOT…
“I’ve been at Barry’s for two years. I started instructor training two summers ago and have been full-time ever since.”
Bag Basics “I teach class outside a lot, so I’ll take Bose speakers so you don’t just hear yourself breathe the whole time. I keep a computer charger for my laptop, because we use them all day. We have to make our own playlists. I also can’t work without my Barry’s notebook; our classes are always planned, never on the fly, so it has everything written down. I also carry hot sauce everywhere I go. It makes me want to eat more bland and boring things because it adds a tang. I’ve always eaten spicy food because growing up we spent the winters in Puerto Rico.”
“I love coming to the Northwest Harbor to paddleboard. It’s a great way to make working out fun—and it’s outside!”
“I’ve played sports my whole life— I was a pretty high-level wrestler through high school and college. Even after I graduated, wrestling was still a part of my workout routine, so I kept up with it. I also personal train. Group fitness spiraled out of that—I taught a few group classes at some gyms in the Hamptons, and then one day, I was at Lululemon visiting my girlfriend, Jenna. Barry’s COO Joey Gonzalez was in there, and she introduced us. We started talking and ended up exchanging numbers.” “If I don’t have time for lunch, I typically grab a cup of coffee at Jack’s Stir Brew in Amagansett— the Happy Jack, which is basically a latte with honey and cinnamon. I’m typically drink three to four cups of coffee a day. I gotta bring the energy!”
“When I go out with my girlfriend and wear ‘real people clothes’ the clients are like, ‘What?’ But they love it.”
“You never know who is going to show up in class! This summer, Jane Krakowski, Naomi Watts, and Patrick McEnroe have all come! It’s cool.”
“I’m pretty big into cooking, especially on the grill! If I have time in the day, I’ll grab lunch with Jenna, or sometimes we’ll have a moment to say hi at one of the studios.”
“Hamptons Flyboard is crazy. The power just shoots to your feet and you feel like you’re Iron Man! You have to keep your legs tight, because if you don’t, it will shoot your feet up and you’ll flip backward.”
5 Tips for Keeping Your Summer Body All Year Round: • Keep a sensible diet—don’t go too crazy! Some of those fad diets will never be sustainable. But try to stay away from processed foods and keep it clean! • Make sure you’re getting at least four to five workouts per week. Everyone’s busy, but a place like Barry’s is great because in 50 minutes you’re in and out. • Doing a little bit extra will get you that body you want, so push yourself! Workout a little harder, skip that bottle of wine…those small things make a difference. • Keep it interesting so it doesn’t feel like a chore. If you’re bored with your workout routine, you won’t do it. Go outside, paddleboard, surf…make it fun. • Push yourself. If you don’t want to look exactly the same all year round, challenge yourself to make changes.

Making the Grade
Katherine “Kat” Cohen makes it her business to help kids get schooled in school—starting as early as kindergarten prep through grad school applications—with her boutique enterprise, IvyWise. The Daily Summer visited Cohen at her Madison Avenue office to learn more about her company, her passion for education, and her unique walk-in closet. BY KRISTEN HEINZINGER PHOTOGRAPHY BY GIORGIO NIRO IvyWise has been around for almost 20 years now. How did it start? When I was in high school I worked for The Princeton Review, recruiting students and teaching SAT classes, and I also taught during summers when I was studying at Brown, so I was always interested in education. When I went to graduate school at Yale, I got a position as a reader for its office of admissions. That’s when the proverbial lightbulb went off and I decided I really want to help students from the other side of the desk—I could see all the mistakes that they were making as they were applying. I got my certificate in college counseling and started my practice, initially in Los Angeles for about six months, and then I moved to New York City in 1998. What services does IvyWise provide? We don’t focus on the little kids as much, like pre-K and kindergarten admission. Our core business is helping students get into selective colleges, so we’re really looking at the middle school and high school group. We can also shepherd kids through college and the graduate school admissions process. We can help students with learning differences, athletes, students who have special needs, or students who have had disciplinary problems. We really handle it all. It would be unusual for us to turn someone away. But it is first come, first serve. What does the program offer a high school student applying to college? In the past 10 years I’ve refined our model to re-create the admissions committee experience. We have a team of exdeans and directors of admission who go through what we call “roundtable,” where each rising senior has his or her applications evaluated by a team of counselors before they round robin through all our counselors. So we mimic a real admissions committee. One of the things we do best is manage expectations. We give feedback right away to students and parents, so there won’t be big surprises. Do you take into account the students’ personalities? The first thing we do in the initial consultation is give students and parents questionnaires. We ask about the students’ favorite subjects, favorite teachers, what they do with their spare time— we want to know everything about them so they can be the best version of themselves while they’re in school. Is IvyWise different now from when it began? It definitely started differently. It began as a one-person operation in my apartment downtown, focusing only on SAT prep and college counseling. Now people hire us for everything.
We can even help tutor kids internationally, through our portal my.ivywise.com. I never thought I’d be where I am today after starting this out of my apartment as just one person. Do you offer different price points for different programs? We’re a luxury service, so we’re priced accordingly. But you can do something small with us, like just an application review or a consultation. We work with students in private schools, public schools, parochial schools, and home-schooled and homeless kids. It runs the gamut. What are the top tips you give all your students? One is to start early. Everything from ninth grade onward counts. A lot of kids won’t see their high school college counselor until spring of junior year. The second thing is that hard work pays off. Colleges are looking for students with grit, so even if you’re not all straight A’s but you’re a really hard worker, that pays off. The third is to be present. It’s such a simple thing, but with cell phones and all our social media outlets, we have so many distractions. On a more personal note, I heard something about an entire floor of your apartment being your closet. I have a town house, and I basically took the small bedroom upstairs and made it a closet. I call it my store, because it’s all merchandised and on racks so I can see everything. That way nothing goes to waste, which is fantastic. Sometimes something gets buried and you never see it so you never wear it! What are your plans for fall? August is our busiest month of the year because the common application comes out and all the rising seniors are working on college applications. I do a lot of talks, like the Young Presidents’ Organization college admissions weekend and the NACAC [National Association for College Admission Counseling] conference in October. Fall is usually when I’m doing a lot of backto-school press. What’s in store for the future of IvyWise? We’re growing, and hiring more counselors and tutors. Since I started the company, between 90 and 100 percent of our students are getting into one or more of their top three reach schools. Also 99.8 percent of our students have graduated from, in four years, the schools that we’ve helped them get into. So we’re really helping students choose the best-fit school for them. We’re still a boutique, and I think we need to reach more people. Because our model is so successful, we could hire more people and duplicate the model in more cities around the globe. We’re only scratching the surface.

True Life:
I’m a Hamptons
Gay!
It’s no Fire Island, but the gay scene out here is alive and well (and, shall we say, more mature). We consulted one anonymous Hamptons resident to get the scoop on life as a fabulous gay man on the East End. AS TOLD TO EDDIE ROCHE How would you describe the Hamptons gay scene? Well, that’s just it—it’s a “scene.” Though few will admit it, the objective is absolute: to be at the “right” party, whether it’s a big event, a small dinner, or an impromptu get-together at the pool. That sentiment starts strong in the beginning of the summer, but once August rolls around, fatigue leads to less contrived gatherings with friends whose names you can actually remember without consulting Facebook. Where do the boys go out? Almond has a fun gay party on Friday night that’s pretty much the only game in town where everyone is welcome. It takes days to get a drink on some nights, but it’s typically packed and cute with all ages. Every so often you see some straight couples there having dinner early in the night and they seem confused. East Hampton Grill has also become a gay spot. Ages ago there was a gay bar called The Swamp, but these days, it doesn’t feel necessary for a gay bar to exist in the Hamptons. Am I aging myself here? Not at all. Is there an A-list? In theory, there is always an A-list, though in the Hamptons, perhaps much like Manhattan, the A-list is widely stratified and diversified by age, occupation, economics, location, and other factors that are alarmingly obvious and superficial. The Hamptons, however, seem to be more gracious in allowing different boys to mingle, as parties tend to be large, access uninhibited, and pools more inviting than a city apartment. Do you see a lot of cross-generational friendships here? Absolutely. The Hamptons tend to be more permissive in this regard, particularly as the more “mature” and “established” homeowners open their doors to younger men. Whether they are friends or prey is really open to interpretation. But the younger people aren’t stupid. A friend of mine who is a looker recently said, “These guys are inviting us out so they have a hot body to look at the pool. I don’t care. I get a free weekend and they get to look at me.” Seems like a fair deal for all. So the young guys are invited out to be eye candy? One hopes, but that’s not always the case, which is a blessing and a burden. Sprinkle a few cute boys around the pool and—presto!—the party is worthy of an Instagram post. The hot boys have no other obligation? Some do. There are men of a certain age who have expectations of these boys. Often there is a genuine sexual attraction between the two, but I’m not sold that I’m witnessing everlasting love when he’s 56 and he’s 22. Hate to be a cynic, but… Do you see a lot of grifters? Quite honestly, grifters don’t tend to get a lot of traction in these crowds, though the ones that manage to cling on know that their shelf life is limited and make the most of it. It’s always the oblivious ones who think they are around for the long run who stick out like acid-washed denim in a sea of white pants. What’s the difference between a straight party and a gay party here? Typically a gay party goes a lot later and you’re more likely to see a shirtless bartender. I’ve been in many a multimillion-dollar home with a straight guy in his underwear serving up a vodka soda to a homosexual crowd. The drinks are also much stronger. Much, much stronger. Dare I say we have more fun?
Is Grindr a thing in the Hamptons? Of course, but I think that here it’s used more out of habit than for actual hunting. The sun, sand, and booze gets the boys all revved up, but geographic limitations, spotty WiFi, and lack of sober drivers seems to stall their engines. Is Two Mile Hollow still the most popular beach with the gays? The idea of going to a gay beach feels a little 1998 to me. These days it’s littered with families and kids, so who wants to trek all that way for a potentially lackluster crowd when you can cultivate your own scene at a hospitable friend’s pool—chilled rosé mandatory, bathing suits optional. Don’t steal my plans. What’s the most popular workout? Power drinking rosé al fresco burns at least a dozen calories. [Laughs] Barry’s Bootcamp is popular, and I love SoulCycle at the Barn in Bridgehampton with Stacey Griffith. Sag Harbor Gym is always guaranteed to have hotties. What’s the difference between Fire Island and the Hamptons? Fire Island is where you start out, and the Hamptons is the place to which you graduate. Fire Island is focused on parties and late nights when you’re young, whereas the Hamptons is more focused on events, and getting seven hours of sleep when you’re more mature. More than anything, it’s the attitude. Fire Island is the Hamptons’ casual cousin, dressed in a slouchy tank top and a swimsuit, looking tanned and tasty, but out of place away from the sand and a maze of clapboard houses filled with half-naked boys. It’s much, much easier to hook up in Fire Island, but it’s more likely he’ll have insufficient funds in his bank account by the end of the weekend. This is the place to husband hunt. Where do guys dress better? Guys don’t typically wear shirts in Fire Island. Here you’ve got to plan your look: colorful shirts, white pants. We look the part. We mirror our straight guy friends that way, but with a little more snap in our ensemble. We fit into the typical Hamptons dress code quite easily with the addition of abs. I find it stressful. Sometimes I just want to eat carbs and not care about what I’m wearing. Thoughts on the inflatable swan floatie in pools? That s**t is done. Does every gay Hamptons resident have some connection to The Real Housewives of New York by law? It’s not statutory, but prevailing common law does require at least two degrees of separation. Exceptions are granted for a third degree of separation provided that you’ve hosted an event attended by a Real Housewife or if you live within five blocks of one of them. Hold your breath as you figure out your own degree of separation. Go! We’ll get back to you on that! What annoys you about Hamptons gays? Instagram abuse. I’m really pleased that you can afford to fly here on Blade. I just don’t need to know about it. One should never post #blessed when riding a helicopter. You might think you’re rocking it, but we’re knocking it. What do you love about Hamptons gays? We’re lucky and we know it, even if we don’t say it out loud very often. Most of us are hardworking people who earned this. There’s a feeling that we’re all in this good life together and not just gay people, all of us. We’re all out here for the same reason. shutterstock

Haute Properties Who better to dish out the details on Hamptons real estate than its premier realtors? Four of the finest brokers share with The Daily Summer tips for buying, selling, and living in the East End. BY KRISTEN HEINZINGER PHOTOGRAPHY BY RYAN LIU
East End beginnings: We were both born and raised here. Each of us has lived in different areas of the country but came back because home is where the heart is. Home sweet home: We both have homes in East Hampton. Years on the job: We have a combined 29 years of real estate experience. Area appeal: The beaches in September. You still have the natural beauty and fantastic weather with a more small-town feel. Retail therapy: Tyler: My favorite shop is Brennan’s Bit & Bridle in Bridgehampton—my wife owns it! Celeb sightings: This summer it seems like Jimmy Fallon is everywhere, and he’s incredibly approachable. Selling point: De-clutter and de-personalize. Potential buyers needs to be able to envision themselves within a space, which can be difficult with a lot of personal effects in the house. Buyer’s remorse: Being pennywise and poundfoolish. Buyers are looking for… New and modern. The ideal client is… Decisive and specific. They know what they want and are ready to jump on a property when we find it for them. Memory lane: We brokered the sale of the historic Gardiner Estate on James Lane to the Town of East Hampton for nearly $10 million. As locals, it was nice to be able to help with the preservation of the town’s history. It was basically the last piece of the puzzle as far as the founding families of East Hampton, right along the lines of Mulford Farmhouse and Home Sweet Home. Hard sell: The sale of the Gardiner property to the town. It was more than just brokering the deal. There was a lot of emotion with the family and dynamics within the town that had to be managed. Beach boys: Our favorite is Georgica Beach in East Hampton. Sunset views: Brian: The Montauket in Montauk. Tyler: Long Beach in Sag Harbor.

BRIAN BUCKHOUT AND TYLER MATTSON, Douglas Elliman
TERRY COHEN, Saunders East End beginnings: I’ve been coming to the Hamptons since 1986. Home sweet home: I have a house in Water Mill. Years on the job: I’ve been in real estate in the Hamptons for 12 years. Typical day: Besides working and parenting, I enjoy biking, paddling around in the bays or ponds, golf, and I venture to the beach when I can. Selling points: Advertise well with good photography in as many print and online venues as possible. Continuously communicate with the brokers, follow up with interested customers, and keep the community aware of price changes. Buyer’s remorse: Sometimes not buying what they love because of a small price difference and risking losing it, or waiting and thinking the prices will go lower. Memory lane: My first sale will always be my most memorable. Hard sell: An early oceanfront deal, where at the closing table tempers flared but eventually we closed. I felt the biggest sense of relief after that closing. Before I was a broker… I was an engineer. Best beach: I love them all, but Scott Cameron was a favorite when my kids were little. Sunset views: You can catch the best sunset in your own backyard.

Hamptons history: I’ve been coming to the Hamptons for 45 years—my parents bought a cute waterfront cottage in 1969. Home sweet home: I own a house in Southampton Village. Resident realtor: I’ve been in the business for 20 years this December. Day in the life: After my busy days in real estate, I take long walks on the beach with Paddington, my mini Goldendoodle. Favorite facet: The beaches, the light, and the people. Most-seen celeb: Brooke Shields. Selling point: Always be the best in price point and the “best in show”—be meticulous. Buyer’s blunder: The biggest mistake buyers make is dragging their feet! Buyers are looking for… Value. The perfect client is… Decisive. Before I was a broker… I was a senior real estate paralegal in the real estate division of a huge New York City law firm. Best beach: Cryder in Southampton Village. Watering hole: Red Bar in Southampton Village. Sunset views: Anywhere with a view of Peconic Bay.

chic SHALL T (BRIDGEHAMPTON) It’s a trend straight out of Malibu:
Drought-resistant landscaping has arrived in the Hamptons—the prestigious Further Lane, to be exact. “Have you ever seen anything like it?” says telecom kajillionaire Bill Melater, giving reporters a tour of his freshly Astroturfed lawn and synthetic flower beds. “All these hydrangeas need is a little QT with a power washer, and boom! They look great all year round.” Despite reports to the contrary, Melater insists that the East End’s increasingly outrageous landscaping bills did not contribute to his decision. “Do you really think it pained me to pay $300,000 a year for some teenagers to mow my lawn and weed my beds?” he scoffs. “I spend more than that doing my holiday shopping at Brunello Cucinelli. This decision was entirely eco-based.” Next, Melater intends to develop his swimming pool into a full-fledged freshwater ecosystem, complete with native plants and wildlife. “I can’t wait to have my very own frogs!” he says excitedly. “I thought about ducks, but they were too messy.”

with members of the press, whom he accused of invading his privacy, Alec Baldwin has found a new cause for complaint. “It’s like they don’t even care!” says Baldwin, strolling naked through Cirillo’s Market in Amagansett while pushing a large grocery cart full of bananas as his fellow shoppers, including a reporter for “Page Six,” simply turned the other way. Baldwin blames his family’s ubiquity on social media for the change. “For 30 years, they wanted to know what I ate for lunch, and now nothing?” he exclaims, counting out $25.32 in pennies to a yawning cashier. “These motherf**kers better watch their backs.”
(MONTAUK) With three-hour wait times alienating customers, Harvest on Fort Pond has developed inventive new ways to accommodate guests. Introducing “Dinner On Board!”, in which diners are invited to enjoy their family-style meals in the middle of Fort Pond. “As you know, the paddleboard trend is absolutely huge,” says Harvest manager Raul Montana, observing a waiter attempt to shield an artichoke pizza from the waves. “But we’re the first to offer three-star dining on them, that’s for sure.” Mitzi Butz, a 24-year-old beauty publicist from Murray Hill, is an ardent fan of the experience. “It’s like the calories you’re eating don’t even count!” she says, tucking into a plate of linguine alle vongole. “Although it’s kind of a bummer to be drenched in sweat.” getty images; shutterstock
