THE
MIAMI CHRONICLES FRENCH ARTISTJR ALWAYS TRIES TO MAKE AN IMPACT — AND THIS YEAR, HE’S DOING SO, IN PART, BY BRINGING HIS CHRONICLES SERIES TO MIAMI. BY LAURA SCHREFFLER PHOTOGRAPHY ERIC GARAULT SHOT ON LOCATION IN PARIS
@hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 15
J
R is a busy man. So busy, in fact, that he doesn’t even have time to taste. This is what first strikes me about the French artist when he pops onto my Zoom in September, clad in a simple white T-shirt and black bowler hat, eyes hidden — as per usual — behind a pair of dark shades. He’s rushing so regularly from one project to the next, one city to the next, that food seems to have ceased having a flavor. Instead, it appears to be a function. The fries he’s currently noshing on might be the best on the planet, but he’s popping them into his mouth so methodically that I can only infer he’s not eating for pleasure but for sustenance alone — just enough fuel to keep his battery running. Carbs, admittedly, are a decent energy boost. I wonder if the dark is regenerating, too, given that he’s currently sat in a dimly lit Soho café, his sole focus being, of course, his art. “There’s so much going on right now, but that’s what’s exciting,” he declares. “I’m on this journey as an artist — a journey that I’ve been on since I was 16 years old — and I’m doing it because I love doing it. I want to make sure that is the case with every project I do; that there’s never a project I have to do. I’m always busy, but it’s always with amazing things. I can never complain — I never have an excuse to complain.” JR certainly won’t be complaining this fall, when he trades both of his home bases — Paris and New York — for sunny Miami, where he’ll debut his latest work, The Chronicles of Miami, in early December. His Magic City murals are the latest in a series of city-specific, participatory pieces that collectively comprise his Chronicles series, which, thus far, have focused on the people of New York, San Francisco, and the suburb of Paris ClichyMontfermeil. Each piece entails photographing and filming hundreds of people, alone or in groups, and collaging their portraits to create a narrative composition that deals with a place or social issue. But he doesn’t create them for social consciousness alone. “Having the excuse of making the mural forces you to tap the shoulders of people all around the city and say, ‘Hey, what’s your story? Who are you?’ You can’t do that in real life, but when you do a mural, you can stop anyone who is selling something at the corner and ask ‘Do you want to be part of this mural?’ And people are usually like, ‘sure.’ You would never talk to that person otherwise.” He explains that, even when totally familiar with a location, like New York, where he’s lived for over a decade, he took the same approach. “It’s an incredible way to discover the city, explore neighborhoods I had never been to. Even if you’re a New Yorker, you still live in your bubble. If you live in Miami, you live in your bubble. Making those murals forces you to go behind each of those bubbles and show how everyone’s interconnected. The mural ends up being a mirror, which represents the whole city and shows it’s an entire community.” 16 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
“ART IS ANOTHER PORTAL TO SEE THE WORLD AND QUESTION YOURSELF.” Holding up a global mirror is particularly important to JR, who, as he is fond of saying, owns the biggest art gallery in the world — though this is not, for those familiar with his work, meant to be taken literally. He displays his pieces in various cities around the world, freely and on the streets, and has always not just allowed, but actively encouraged, the public to assist. To inspire and encourage an interest in art, he prefers to catch the attention of people who are not typical museum visitors. JR’s artistic method is as unique as his views and practices. He creates some of his public art — for projects such as Women Are Heroes, Face 2 Face, and Portrait of a Generation — by use of wheat pasting, producing large scale mono photographs and shooting his subjects with a 28mm wide-angle lens, the blown-up images of which are then pasted on urban surfaces such as the sides of buildings, bridges, and rooftops. And though its residents are his focus, Chronicles intentionally turns the cities into living, breathing beings. “[I always choose] cities that are in total shift; at a moment where they’re changing,” he explains. “I want to capture the essence of the people within that city. There’s no better way for me to do that than to paint a scene depicting a group of people: you can press and click on every single person and hear their story. When you see murals of groups of people in museums that were painted a hundred or a thousand years ago, you never get to learn about those people. But now, with technology, you can. And that’s how I came up with the idea of representing a community, and at the same time, letting them express themselves, and recording their stories along with it, so that their grandchildren will be able to hear them one day.” Come December, the residents of Miami will have their time to shine. Over 1,000 Miamians and visitors alike had their portraits taken in JR’s mobile studio, a 53-foot-long truck he drove through the diverse neighborhoods of Wynwood, Little Haiti, the Design District, Downtown, Liberty City, Little Havana, Miami Beach, and Coconut Grove. Anyone who passed by was invited to have their portrait taken and asked how they wanted to be remembered in a bid to create a narrative of Miami at this moment in time. In Little Havana, expert domino players, cigar rollers, and musicians were photographed in action, practicing their craft in the neighborhood they call home. In Miami Beach, he captured clubgoers decked out for a night of revelry. He also set up his first-ever poolside studio, where scantily clad Miamians agreed to have their portraits taken post-swim. After being photographed, each participant entered a recording booth, in which they could share a story. Some talked about how they found themselves in the city, while others spoke about their craziest nights out on the town. Each participant will hear his or her voice as well, which will be connected to the portraits through a JR:murals app.
And so, his raison d’être, as it were, as well as his process, seems clear. But on my end, one question remains, and it is this: why Miami? Not that the city doesn’t make sense, but JR has a clear connection to the likes of New York and Clichy-Montfermeil. Miami, a place to which he has no distinct ties, is more of a conundrum. He explains, “Miami is an incredible city. In the last couple of years, it has totally exploded and shifted, and become ten times bigger. People from New York and all over the world started to move there. I used to go once a year for Art Basel, then realized there was an energy there that started inspiring people to come and stay. COVID was a big turn for it. It’s a crossroad for many people: some come there for a better dream, some come there for a better living. All of this is connected and that is why a lot of communities are represented in the mural. You have people from Cuba, Jamaica, lots of di erent parts of the world. They live as little communities there, all together. That’s what you don’t get to see if you just come to visit. Making a mural there was a way to dive into that community. It was mind-blowing for me.” Because he tries to say something important, to make a statement, to discover some sort of social consciousness with each of his Chronicles, I’m intrigued to hear what he learned, what his takeaway was, and what he decided to say with his piece after spending time in the Magic City. “What I learned in Miami is to sift through the layers of the city and see what lies beneath it. There’s a di erent energy there. The creativity floats around, you know? You can tell it’s a city by the ocean, in constant movement. You can tell it’s a city that’s building itself, and has an impact on its people. Miami people have the right kind of tone — one that’s not too stressed. They work hard but know how to enjoy life. When you have the sun and the ocean next to you, you have a better way of living than in other places.”
“I
want to change people’s perspectives about things,” says JR. Having covered a lot of ground over the last hour, we’re now getting into the ‘why’ of his thought-provoking pieces. “It’s all a matter of perspective. Art can raise questions and force you to look at things di erently, and that’s what I do with my projects. They always bring you this di erent perception,” he explains, before referring back to his most recent large-scale project — one that hit (and took place) particularly close to home. The Opéra national de Paris invited JR to take part in the renovation of its iconic Palais Garnier by creating two successive installations, where he turned the façade of the Palais Garnier into a cave entrance that references Plato’s allegory of the cave, a place of knowledge and transmission that proposes a metamorphosis in two acts. The first debuted in September; the second occurred before the debut of his Chronicles of Miami in November. “I did Act I in Paris in September, and it was beyond incredible. Thousands of people came every night to see the projection of the ballet within my piece,” he shares. He sounds excited, but because of his signature sunglasses, I cannot be sure, as I can’t see a telltale shimmer in his eyes. But then he admits it. “It opened a whole new range of dimension to my work that I’m beyond excited for,” JR says, noting that, to him, Act II was even more ambitious, and therefore, even more impactful, than Act I.” In fact, he’s flying back home to Paris the day following our chat to continue working on it, which is how he spent most of his October. “It’s going to be mind-blowing,” he confesses. “I’ll activate that piece on the building in a way that nobody can even imagine right now. The challenges are huge: there’s more risk of failing than succeeding, but that’s when I know a project is interesting.” @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 19
It certainly sounds interesting, as he shares a bit about the concept to be, which, at publication time, will have already debuted in the City of Light. But now, months in advance, he’s divulging some juicy details, confiding, “It will be as visual as Act I, that’s for sure. You’ll go deeper in the cave, but it won’t be animated with projection as in September. It’s going to be something much more analogic and special, from the music to the façade. It will be an epic moment for Paris, for all the people who will travel to see this, and for me,” he declares. For many reasons, as it happens. Doing something this big was a testament to his success, a validation of work. It also lit a creative fire within him, and now, JR both wants and needs to do more. “I don’t know why I haven’t projected within a piece of mine before,” he says with a shake of his head. “But then, when I saw it, I was like, Oh my God, I haven’t thought of that. I was surprised by the e ect it created. I didn’t expect it to work on such a large scale, or to work so well, or for people to respond like that, but it was a perfect combination.” JR knew he had a hit on his hands with Act I because of the public’s response: the overwhelmingly positive feedback he is still currently receiving is both humbling and gratifying. “I didn’t do any press, just posted on Instagram, and suddenly, I had between 6,000 and 10,000 people on the square, there, watching. The word of mouth between people is unbelievable. There were all the people passing through, stopping and saying, ‘What’s this?’ and having no idea. With the combination of that and people writing to each other saying, ‘You should come see this,’ by the last weekend, you couldn’t even drive a car on the square. It was packed every day, everywhere. It was incredible.” It seems that JR is entering a new phase of his career, but is this new type of work opening new doors as well? “I think all doors have always been open,” he says. “Now I’m just thinking how to do things in di erent contexts. You can do this with the opera, on theaters, on a movie set — it’s such a simple shift. It’s about changing the canvas of how we present things and reinventing the way we look at it because there’s another layer to it. The opera can be very exclusive, but suddenly, it is open for everyone, and that, for me, is the biggest part of it. The role of the artist is to shine a di erent light and show that there are di erent ways of looking at the world.” JR, born Jean-René, has believed in this vision for at least half of his life. Once upon a time, he admits that he was just another typical teenager with a passion for gra ti, living and breathing the art form and creating under the moniker Face 3. But one day, when he found a camera on the subway, his perception of street art began to change. He started to track those who communicated messages over walls, on rooftops, and in the hidden underbelly of Paris. But it wasn’t until 2004 — when he photographed the riots that broke out in its banlieues — that he created his first major project, pasting up large prints of the faces of those involved around the city. His star has continued to rise, and quickly, too. In 2006, he completed an illegal project in a suburb of Paris, dubbed Portrait of a Generation — it became o cial only when the Paris City Hall wrapped its building with his photos. In 2007, he managed to defy expert’s predictions of failure by creating the largest illegal exhibition ever in Face2Face. His artwork was placed as huge portraits of Israelis and Palestinians face to face in a variety 20 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
of Palestinian and Israeli cities, managing to artfully dodge authorities on both sides of the separation wall. Additionally, JR has debuted exhibitions such as Women Are Heroes, Inside Out, and The Wrinkles of the City — a collaboration with fellow artist José Parla for the Havana Biennale — all around the world, in cities such as Cartagena, Shanghai, Los Angeles, and New York. He also directed the 2015 short film ELLIS, starring Robert De Niro, which was written by Academy Award winner Eric Roth. In 2011, he won the TED Prize, a cash award of 1,000,000 that’s given annually to a forward-thinking individual with a bold vision for sparking global change. And clearly, he has continued to do that. JR has always wanted to be the change, which is why — quite uniquely for an artist of his ilk — he sticks to his guns and refuses to sell out. Like a modern-day Groucho Marx, he rebu s being part of any brand that will have him. Yet brands pay and sometimes, more money can foster further change. JR doesn’t see it that way though. “I took a journey as an artist without knowing the art world. I had never studied it and I don’t come from a background of artists, but I found such freedom in doing gra ti and expressing myself the way I wanted. I realized that the audience I created was looking at my work because of the vision I was bringing. If suddenly I started to become another billboard, what would the di erence be between me and an advertisement? To stay independent, you have to protect your space. It doesn’t mean that I can’t do a collaboration, but it can’t be within my work, and that’s why I never do it,” he explains. It all boils down to authenticity for him, and a commitment to being the artist he always knew he could be — the artist that, he is proud to say, he still is. JR might be 40 (a young 40, to be sure) but he is still that teenager who got excited by street art, filled with wonder, who has never lost an appreciation for what he does. He says as much now. “From an early age, I was always curious to see di erent facets of the world. I was always outside, in the street, taking the train, seeing what was on the other side of the line. I had that freedom, and I used it. I think I am still a kid wandering the world, wanting to find ways to daydream. In my work, I take a lot of pleasure doing things that are crazy and can sometimes fail — I’m not always going to succeed, but I’m always trying.” This, I tell him, is a unique superpower. His response? “That,” he says, “is art. Art is another portal to see the world and question yourself. ‘Why am I here, doing this? Why am I alive here, on this planet’? Art is a way to reflect that to people in di erent parts of the world. That’s why you want to hear what they’ve learned; why art is so long-lasting; why it can be timeless. That’s why we’re looking at paintings from the past, asking ourselves what this artist was trying to say.” Because JR brought up the long-lasting e ects of art, I wonder if he’s ever paused to think about his own legacy, and what his art will say about this moment in time in the future. But while he has big plans, to JR, the future is a complete mystery — and he wants it to stay that way. “I don’t really know what I’m doing next year, so to know what people would think about me in 100 years isn’t really something I think about,” he confides. “I really live in the present with no strategy or goal. The journey is what matters to me.” But also, let’s be honest: sometimes — especially in the case of Miami, where there is a better way of living — it is also about the destination, right?

Haute Beauty Experts Share Their Wholesome Practices For Holistic Well-Being BY BROOKE KLAIMAN
PRIORITIZING YOUR WELL-BEING IS AN EVERYDAY ENDEAVOR, AND
who could o er better insights into wellness than our Haute Beauty MD experts? Here, they graciously share the wholesome practices that they have acquired over time, allowing them to sustain a harmonious life balance. So, as you read through their suggestions, make sure to take notes: now is the time to embark on your own journey toward holistic well-being.
DR. BRIAN K. MACHIDA | FACE | LOS ANGELES, CA My commitment to my family always takes precedence in my life. While maintaining an exercise routine would certainly be nice, my family is a priority. Additionally, rooted in my Christian faith, I pursue my studies and engage in volunteer work to keep my life and priorities balanced.
DR. AMIR MORTAZAVI | MEDICAL SPA | ORANGE COUNTY, CA Prioritizing self-care amid life’s challenges is crucial; internal dialogue often pushes us to multitask and set boundaries. Overcoming personal struggles, I’ve found ways to enhance well-being: setting adaptable goals, disconnecting from technology, delegating tasks, and embracing continuous learning. Monitoring self-talk, shifting negativity to encouragement, and regularly assessing balance help maintain equilibrium. Customizing strategies is vital, as balance is individual and evolving. Most importantly, reshaping our inner voice with positive self-talk is key.
DR. DINA D. STRACHAN | SKIN | MIDTOWN, NY Wellness is a long-term game. It’s about returning to the foundations of diet, sleep, exercise, and community. I have started intermittent fasting, which works well for me. I am mindful not to consume excess sugar and alcohol, I’ve been a vegetarian for decades, and I have been more intentional about getting seven or eight hours of sleep per night, even if I’m not always successful. Living in New York City makes it easy to be active and have a community.
DR. DAISY AYIM | BODY | HOUSTON Wellness has always been a top priority, although the path of medicine often derails or limits the ability to do wellness as I imagine. However, outdoor running is a frequent practice that keeps me balanced both physically and mentally — Sunday mornings are ideal. Another major aspect of my journey is only consuming water — no alcohol or soda. Paired with exercise, it presents a sense of calmness and clarify. This simple living practice is my lifelong mental health therapy. 30 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com/hautebeauty
MELISSA PULCINI-BUTTINE, CEO & FOUNDER, ELIVATE MEDSPA WELLNESS | MEDICAL SPA | STAMFORD/GREENWICH Maintaining balance is crucial for busy entrepreneurs and moms. It’s tough, and sometimes we lose track. Remember, it’s O to falter; simply regroup. Tomorrow brings a fresh start. A set routine for exercise and self-care works wonders. Just like appointments, schedule them in. Yoga and meditation boost mental well-being, even while traveling. Prioritize self-care; it’s not selfish. When you’re at your best, you can conquer busy days with energy and a smile on your face.
DR. MARA WEINSTEIN VELEZ | SKIN | ROCHESTER, NY Wellness varies for all. It could be walks, fitness classes, healthy eating, or therapy. Regardless, prioritize yourself. For me, it’s girlfriend time, family walks, and regular skincare and treatments to maintain my skin. As a board-certified dermatologist, I enhance patients’ wellness by addressing skin concerns, which boosts self-esteem. And of course, I prioritize my own skin health, too.
DR. THOMAS MCNEMAR | FACE | SAN FRANCISCO Prioritizing my health empowers me to better care for my family and patients. A structured routine is key — sleep, early morning meditation, prayer, and preparation. Nurturing my mental well-being involves moments with family, bonds within my church community, and my unwavering faith, bolstered by a dose of comedic relief during leisure. My physical health thrives on nourishing foods, a low-sugar diet, family-oriented activities, sauna sessions, and an array of diverse pursuits such as golf, jogging, skiing, and tennis. Walking our spirited black Portuguese Water Dog and lively apricot Standard Poodle with my wife adds to our invigorating routine. Through these practices, I am empowered. Amid life’s demands, setting aside time for loved ones and treasured activities remains paramount.
JAMIE CARUSO CEO & FOUNDER, SALON LUSSO OF NAPLES | DAY SPA | NAPLES, FL Wellness and mental health are vital in my daily life. At five a.m., I begin with cold water, skipping phone use for an hour. Meditation outdoors or in my o ce follows, alongside goal-setting and visualization. I edit a life script and read 10 pages of a book. Then, I tackle work, emails, and calendar checks. I prioritize whole foods, hydration, and minimize alcohol and sugar. This routine empowers a fulfilling, healthy life, emphasizing mental wellbeing and overall wellness.
DR. SAM RIZK | FACE | MANHATTAN, NY I’ve found that even my hobbies and work blend — I suppose that’s what happens when you really love your job! I’m a very creative person and have always loved to sculpt. When I got to medical school and became interested in facial anatomy I realized I could make a career out of sculpting faces. Outside of art, nothing beats staying active with my family. My kids are accomplished in martial arts, and my wife and I love it, too. We also enjoy playing tennis together; I picked it up recently and discovered it’s a great way to keep my hand-eye coordination razor-sharp.

DR. BERTHA BAUM | SKIN | MIAMI, FL Regular exercise, balanced nutrition, su cient sleep, and stress management techniques like mindfulness and meditation have helped me maintain my physical and mental well-being. Engaging in hobbies, spending quality time with loved ones, and seeking social support also play vital roles in my life. Setting realistic goals, managing time e ectively, and practicing self-care balance life. Continuous learning stimulates cognitive well-being. Regular check-ins and adjusting your strategies sustain holistic wellness.
DR. ALTON INGRAM | BODY | NASHVILLE, TN First, prioritize sleep amidst surgeon’s long hours for su cient rest. Second, focus on balanced nutrition with whole, nutrient-rich foods; limit sugar and processed items to fuel body and mind. Third, include non-negotiable exercise, whether a morning run or quick yoga, to manage stress and boost energy. Fourth, mind your mental health with meditation and deep breathing. Lastly, treasure and cultivate relationships beyond work; quality time with loved ones o ers fulfillment and crucial support during challenges.
REFINE HEALTH | MEDICAL AESTHETICS | CORAL GABLES, FL & MIAMI, FL Numerous small habits can significantly contribute to elevating your overall well-being and nurturing your mental health. At Refine Health, we favor maintaining self-consistency, and prioritizing discipline over fleeting gratification. This entails embracing daily sunlight exposure, benefiting from IV Therapy, tending to your oral vitamin regimen in the comfort of your home, and engaging in a workout routine four or five times a week. Incorporate daily stretches, especially post-exercise; consider performing them within a sauna environment for relaxation and muscle relief.
DR. JOSE RODRÍGUEZ-FELIZ | EYELID SURGERY & FACE | MIAMI, FL Throughout my life, I’ve embraced varied activities from martial arts and sports to weightlifting. As I grew older and wiser, I started to realize that focusing solely on my body provided only a limited perspective on holistic well-being. Over the past two decades, I’ve dedicated myself to personal growth and leadership, focusing on self-guided reading, and recently, coaching. Over the past year, I’ve come to understand the power of working on the mind. I also experienced an awakening that has significantly enhanced my overall state of mind — achievements that physical activity alone couldn’t provide. My routine starts at five a.m. with spiritual awakening, breath work, and body alignment. Dual martial arts sessions and bodywork fill my days. This lifelong journey has evolved into holistic self-improvement, integrating mind, body, and soul. hauteliving.com/hautebeauty HAUTE LIVING 31

DR. JEFFREY LISIECKI | NOSE | NEW YORK, NY Mental and physical wellness is so essential for all of us, and surgeons are no exception. Regular exercise is one of my most important strategies to clear my mind, manage stress, and keep my body healthy for those long days in the OR. Aside from that, healthy eating, making sure I get quality sleep, and making time to unwind with friends and family are also essential.
JULIA BIFULCO, BELLAGENA MED SPA | DAY SPA | BRADENTON, FL Wellness is a holistic concept, and varies from person to person. Listen to your body, pay attention to your needs, and adjust your routine as necessary. Regular self-check-ins and intentional choices lead to a fulfilling life. My strategies: regular exercise, a healthy diet, adequate sleep, engaging in hobbies, and practicing gratitude. Your journey’s key is finding what works best for you.
DR. JAY ARORA | VISION | SCOTTSDALE, AZ Mental health is by far the most critical component of my abilities as a physician. My job is to give patients my utmost dedication to their overall health, and that starts with prioritizing my own mental wellness. If you pour from an empty cup, you won’t be able to satisfy the demands of those depending on it. For me personally, the key factors in my balance come from exercise, meditation, and spending time with loved ones and friends.
To me, wellness is a state in which I feel well-balanced in my mental, physical, and spiritual mind. It includes doing things I love, like my job and seeing friends, as well as taking care of my body, being aware of how I nourish it, and taking care of my mind. Some practices I’ve included recently are meditation and journaling. In January 2023, I started using a guided meditation app, just five or 10-minute meditations every morning. I gradually increased the length of time and started meditating on my own without guidance. I have seen a noticeable change in my state of ease and overall wellness.
DR. ANNA CHACON | SKIN | MIAMI, FL As a healthcare provider, I recognize the importance of prioritizing one’s overall wellness and mental health. This is a continuous process that I personally strive to maintain, not just during a specific month, but throughout the entire year. My approach to wellness is driven by key practices: regular exercise, a balanced diet, quality sleep, mindfulness, and work-life balance. These strategies keep me on track. E ective time management, healthy boundaries, self-care, regular health check-ups, and a strong support system are my practical tools for maintaining balance. Remember, maintaining a healthy balance in life is a journey, not a destination. It’s about making small, sustainable changes that add up over time.
DR. VINEET SANDHU | CONCIERGE MEDICINE | NEW YORK, NY Prioritizing wellness and mental health is a lifelong commitment. Recognizing the importance of my own well-being in providing quality care to patients, I make time to take care of myself. I understand that self-care is not selfish, it’s an essential component in a healthy work-life balance. My journey prioritizing wellness underscores self-care’s significance for healthcare professionals. Strategies like time management, exercise, mindfulness, and boundaries bring balance, enhancing well-being and patient care. Investing in ourselves makes us better caregivers and individuals for the rest of our lives. 32 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com/hautebeauty
DR. PETER ANDRADE, BEAUTIQUE CONCIERGE | MEDICAL SPA | BROOKLYN, NY It’s important that overall physical and mental wellness become a lifestyle rather than a short-term goal. I strongly believe that staying active, regardless of the method, is vital for health and longevity. Whether it’s cardio, strength training, or stretching, I believe sweating at least three times a week is paramount to a healthy lifestyle.
DR. NILAY SHAH | BREAST | NEW YORK, NY As a plastic surgeon in NYC, I value wellness and mental health amidst a busy life and an ever-bustling environment. Strategies that help me maintain a healthy balance include: regular exercise, exploring NYC’s diverse culinary scene while making mindful choices, and connecting with friends or attending cultural events. With this, I set clear boundaries for work and personal time, allocating moments throughout the day for relaxation and reflection. Prioritizing sleep and practicing mindfulness techniques, seeking professional development, and engaging in philanthropic activities fosters a sense of purpose. By integrating these strategies, I ensure that my overall wellness and mental health remain steadfast throughout the year.
DR. HUSAM ALMUNAJED | SMILE | NEW YORK, NY Balancing work and life is an obstacle both personally and professionally. As I grow older, I realize stress stems from pressure and the uncontrollable. Manage and embrace them with readiness and experience. Nurture a mindset that’s unshaken by the externals. Prioritize your well-being for life’s rollercoaster, even amid work-life balance.
REANA MYERS PA, CAREAGA PLASTIC SURGERY | BODY | MIAMI, FL Year-round, I focus on my mental health and overall well-being. I swear by three pillars: eating well, staying active, and getting good sleep. I also prioritize personal time by enjoying relating activities, and when I need a boost, traveling does the trick. These habits are my constant for a balanced life.

WITH FALL HERE, THE TEMPTATION OF INDULGING IN CLASSIC
treats like pumpkin spice lattes, apple pies, and caramel apples is irresistible. However, the joy of savoring these delectable delights often comes at a cost to our dental health.

But fear not, for we at Empire Dental Aesthetics have a simple and tooth-friendly solution to satisfy your autumn cravings without compromising your smile. Raw and crunchy fruits and vegetables are our allies in the battle against dental stains. These natural wonders serve as a delicious and nutritious alternative to traditional fall desserts while providing a valuable service for your oral hygiene. By their very nature, these foods act as natural toothbrushes, mechanically removing food particles, bacteria, and residues from your teeth and mouth. In the process, they also scrub away surface stains, preventing the dreaded appearance of dull teeth. So, what are these specific fruits and vegetables? Apples, radishes, pears, celery, kale, and carrots are among the top contenders. These tooth-friendly foods are particularly e ective in preventing stains from forming in the first place, thanks to their abrasive texture and cleansing properties. Incorporating them into your fall routine is a wise choice, whether you enjoy them as a postmeal snack or a guilt-free companion to your favorite fall beverage or dessert. The key to maintaining a radiant smile during the fall season is balance. While we understand the allure of indulging in seasonal delights, we encourage you to be mindful of their potential impact on your dental health.

2024 Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance City elegance, canyon stormer BY TIM LAPPEN
The response to this question isn’t a simple one, and will likely depend upon when someone’s main experience with the brand occurred. If it were in the late 1930s, the images conjured up would be of the famous world-beaters, the “Silver Arrows,” the sleek, shiny, and super-fast torpedoes that won races everywhere. If it were in the 1950s, the response undoubtedly would focus on high-performance sports cars, including the legendary 300 SL “Gullwing” — still very much sought-after today — the 300 SLR racer, and the less-mighty yet beautiful 300 SL’s younger brother, the 190 SL. If it were in the 1980s or if it is now, luxury cars like the S-class would stand out, as well as perhaps the wagons, SUVs and crossovers — all status symbols. But throughout all these decades, one thing remained constant: engineering. The cars coming from the company, based in Stuttgart, Germany, were strong, durable, solid, and dependable. In recent years though, Mercedes has done more than just hint at its racing heritage, with high-speed road-going cars that display the “AMG” badge on their tails. Today, AMG is the high-performance subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz, headquartered about 13 miles northeast of the main plant. While it started as a racing-engine company in 1967, it slowly became more formally aligned with Mercedes, until Mercedes-Benz bought the majority interest in the company in 1999. The latest addition to the Mercedes-AMG line is the S63 E Performance, a sedan — and a hybrid — that I had the pleasure of experiencing for the day, both on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, and along the canyons and valleys close to Mulholland Drive. And what a car it is. Let’s start with the specs, which clearly foreshadow what you can expect from the upcoming driving impressions: Motors: V8 twin-turbo up front (603 horsepower) and an electric motor at the rear (188 horsepower). Total horsepower: 791. Total torque: 1,055. 0-60 mph acceleration: 3.2 seconds. Top speed: 180 mph. Drive wheels: all-wheel drive. 34 HAUTE LIVING hauteauto.com

“WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MERCEDES-BENZ?”
Note that the car is not marketed as Mercedes-Benz, but as Mercedes-AMG, reflecting the joint-venture nature of the “Skunk Works”, where the gremlins create masterful, powerful cars. To put an accent on that demarcation, the AMGs are built in A alterbach rather than the main Mercedes-Benz plant in Stuttgart. And it does not come as a surprise to car aficionados that Mercedes-AMG created the engines that motivated some of today’s most sophisticated hypercars, such as the Pagani Zonda, Huaryra 12, and the Aston Martin 8. Pretty good company to be in, right? The car has a great stance, helped immeasurably by stunning 21-inch forged wheels, a design exclusive to AMG. The front grille is the first of its kind for AMG and an array of design elements and finishes di erentiate it from other Mercedes-Benz models. The business end of the car is similarly impressive: it boasts a nine-speed transmission with seven drive modes, ranging from all-electric to drop the hammer and four settings of regen. Entering the car, it is hard to believe that this isn’t the Mercedes-Maybach sedan, considering how plush and commodious it is. Specially stitched and ventilated seats are complemented by surround sound; state-of-the-art air conditioning with vertical registers are located on the main dash; and exquisite woods and leathers, as well as a large back seat, make for a luxurious ride. Driving the car was pure joy. A wonderful combination of handling, accelerating, braking, and steering in a vehicle that tips the scales at around 5,500 pounds is a unique experience. The ride is supple, yet there’s no body roll on the corners. Push it and it takes it all, and then some. There is absolutely no compromise in this vehicle: it is as if Mercedes-AMG had made the largest — 1 .5 feet long — and most luxurious car one that is both high-performing yet enjoyable to drive at the same time. Yes, it’s a hybrid, but the emphasis is not on miles-percharge — it’s on blistering performance. And that works beautifully. At press time, the cost had yet to be announced, but the base price is expected to be around 200,000. Is it worth it? When accounting for the luxury it provides for nights on the town and the incredible performance it has when hitting the canyons, it’s hard to imagine what other vehicle in that price range can keep up.

2024 Rolls-Royce La Rose Noire Droptail A romantic journey through “la vie en rose.” AT AN ELEGANT RECEPTION HIGH IN THE HILLS OVERLOOKING
the Pacific Ocean and Pebble Beach Golf Links, La Rose Noire glided up the driveway to take its place in front of a wall of gorgeous dark red roses featuring a gold “RR” emblem in the middle, while Torsten M ller- tv s, Rolls-Royce’s CEO, introduced the brand’s latest creation. Many ultra-luxury car makers and hypercar manufacturers will personalize your new ride. Though they may use di erent names to do so, they allow the buyer to choose the paint color, interior color, materials, seat and dash stitching, wheels, options packages, and, in some cases, enough options so that the purchase price of the fully-loaded car can go up to 100 percent more than the base car. But then, there is the concept of “coachbuilt.” This is how many luxury cars were created around the world starting at the end of the horse-drawn coach period, which declined after the late 1 20s. During those years, a buyer would purchase a “rolling chassis” frame, wheels, motor, transmission, etc. from the builder and then commission a separate company to design the perfect body and interior for the car, making this a time-consuming and expensive process. Yet when it was completed, the owner would have a unique car that couldn’t be owned by anyone else. 36 HAUTE LIVING hauteauto.com
Some vintage coachbuilt cars have received extremely high bids at auction, despite it being almost impossible to determine their value. Yet, I doubt that people purchasing coachbuilt cars today are as concerned about their resale value, considering they’re mostly looking for a car that is a reflection of their taste while showing their passion for design. Starting in 201 , Rolls-Royce returned to its roots by introducing commissioned roadgoing art with its Sweptail — a two-door coachbuilt embodying the company’s wish to create never-before-seen cars. The design was intended to create an intimate and cosseting interior, wrapping the occupants in comfort and luxury while also providing a smooth and powerful ride and scenic views with a full-length glass roof. The 2021 Boat Tail continued that design language. It is the car of an extrovert, one who enjoys driving with what Rolls-Royce calls a “highly social open top.” Let me now introduce you to La Rose Noire, the first of four coachbuilt “droptails” to be built, which was unveiled on the eve of the 2023 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California. The open two-seater it has a removable roof is the first roadster body style in Rolls-Royce’s modern

history. It was inspired by the allure of the Black Baccara rose, a flower grown in France with velvet-like petals, beloved by the doyenne of the commissioning family. Photos do not do the color of the car justice. The incredibly luminescent and jewel-like red paint required some 150 iterations to perfect — a finish so dynamic that, while on display on a perfectly clear, sunny day, it shone with many di erent shades of red. The red colorway is a lovely counterpoint to the black-mist chrome accoutrements that adorn the body, as well as the bumpers, grille work, and Spirit of Ecstasy adorning the top of the Pantheon grille. Inside the car, the woodwork was created by combining hundreds of wooden shapes, while the parquetry is comprised of an extraordinary 1,602 pieces of wood sourced from France. The latter is the most complex project ever undertaken by Rolls-Royce. It provides the perfect canvas on which to illustrate the flow of red rose petals that float from fore to aft, even when the car is not in motion. Rolls-Royce director of design Anders Warming and head of coachbuild design Alex Innes were both in attendance, pointing out the innumerable design touches that were put together to make La Rose Noire one-of-a-kind, yet recognizable. The designers also collaborated with Audemars Piguet to create a special one-o timepiece that can be placed into its dash receptable as an in-car clock or which can be worn by the car owners. The 43mm Royal Oak Concept SplitSeconds Chronograph GMT Large Date runs on a unique self-winding Calibre 0 movement, with a flyback chronograph and split-seconds mechanism. It has red counters and a red inner bezel that both stand out against the black openworked dial that is highlighted with rhodium-toned bevels. The company’s return to the coachbuilt era has been terrific for both the special customers who commission these beautiful vehicles — some of which can be seen at the most prestigious car shows in the world, such as Villa d’Este — and those of us who aren’t buyers yet still enjoy the gorgeous styling and workmanship emblematic of these exclusive cars. This latest series — the quartet of Droptails each is to be produced in its own variant — harken back to the time when time and money were not as important in the creating of these cars: achieving extraordinary results was paramount. @hauteauto HAUTE LIVING 37

THE MASTER COLLECTOR With an unparalleled reputation in the watch industry, Kevin O’Leary has a relationship with watches that transcends far beyond the dial — as time is Mr. Wonderful’s most valuable asset. BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE
PHOTOS ALBERTO GONZALEZ
KEVIN O’LEARY’S PASSION FOR WATCHES IS PALPABLE.
A brief digression: in mid-July, I connected with O’Leary a few weeks prior to our shoot to discuss the creative direction and story we wanted to tell. He was beaming with such enthusiasm about showing his watch collection in a new, fun way that for a moment, I thought he was going to burst through the phone. Fast forward to late August on our cover shoot with his beloved timepieces, and his passion practically became infectious. Being in this industry, it’s clear that some collectors and enthusiasts were just destined for it — and I quickly discovered O’Leary is one of those folks. His aptitude for watchmaking is a part of his early upbringing. When O’Leary was just a teenager around 15 years old, he moved to the watch capital of the world, Geneva, Switzerland. It was there he discovered the biggest players in the industry, which sat along the streets lining Lac Léman (or Lake Geneva). “Lake Geneva is where the watchmakers were, and where they still are today,” O’Leary explains. “I took a fascination with watchmaking in Geneva, and at that time, in the late 60s, there were remarkable dials I was beginning to learn about, in addition to the history of watchmaking. I developed a passion for watches, realizing they are an unusual piece of art,” he recalls. There is a hint of nostalgia in O’Leary’s voice, while he also reflects on his early days in Geneva so fondly — as if it were yesterday. “We were just getting a man to the moon around this time, and Omega launched the Speedmaster, which was a watch selected by NASA to be worn in space,” O’Leary says as he references his first-ever watch. And yes, that is the 1 6 Speedmaster that made history when worn by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon.
Some years later, his passion — and collection — has only grown. “When starting a collection, most people go down the so-called ‘three horsemen’ path, which consists of the three core brands of every collector’s collection: Audemars Piguet, Rolex, and Patek Philippe,” O’Leary explains. Indeed, these are the big three: think of the Patek Philippe World Time, the steel white-faced Daytona from Rolex, and the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak as your founding fathers, if you will. However, O’Leary came to a point in his collecting career where he had reached great heights in the classic category from these three industry pillars. He began to question where he would go next. The answer was simple: dials. “I got captured in the dials. I wanted to get more diversification in dials because what you see on your wrist — and what starts the conversation — is the dial. And the thing is, Patek has a look, Audemars Piguet has a look, and Rolex has a look. Those are dials I can spot from 20 feet away. I wanted to explore new watchmakers and new dials. For example, the F.P.Journe dials are unmistakable,” he suggests with a smile spreading across his face. A proven expert in both watches and entrepreneurship who spends his time as an original “shark” on Shark Tank, evaluating and investing in dynamic business proposals, his strategic thinking has infiltrated his keen eye and mindset in watches. Ultimately, he has mastered the minutia of collecting through his investment in watches — emotionally, physically, and beyond. “The thing about collecting,” he starts to explain, “is people always ask me how I am getting these pieces. So, I think it is important to cover this topic for collectors who are just starting to understand how it works. The @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 41
watch industry has not changed in 250 years. It has grown on the back of its collectors. Those who get into watches and spend a lifetime collecting are the backbone of the industry. And there are certain unwritten rules to follow,” O’Leary reveals. It’s true; O’Leary is a man of his word. He is so serious about his unwavering commitment to not selling, trading, or bartering any of his watches that he confesses they will likely go with him when he dies (lightheartedly, of course), as he will undoubtedly need them in his afterlife. As they say, watch enthusiasts are die-hards. All jokes aside, O’Leary is not wrong; this is the golden rule of watch collecting. And once you earn the watchmaker’s trust, the fun can be had. “When I covet a piece, I let a brand know that a particular dial is of interest to me; however, I do not bug them or call them 40 times — I call once. At their election, they may eventually call me up one day and say they have that dial in North America, asking if I want to take it. My answer is always yes,” he admits. A trendsetter nonetheless, he is excited about where the industry is headed at this very moment. “I am excited that even the most conservative watch companies — like Rolex and Patek — are getting more creative with their dials. For instance, the Rolex Day-Date Puzzle 42 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com
Dial that just dropped this year is o the charts,” he says with his passion shining through his words again. “That watch came right out of left field, causing a massive controversy among collectors. They thought Rolex was out of its mind, but I think it’s a brilliant move, bringing excitement to a classic.” Spending the morning with a snippet of his collection, there is no denying his dials are special. From the Rolex “Eye of the Tiger” Daytona and the F.P.Journe Chronomètre Bleu to the same Patek Philippe Aquanaut Luce “Rainbow” Messi was spotted wearing earlier this year, his repertoire is impressive. With such a vast collection, I supposed it would be hard for O’Leary to pick just one favorite. Proving me right, he rattled o a few classics he simply could not live without like the Patek Ref. 5711, the Audemars Piguet Jumbo Royal Oak, and his F.P.Journe Chronomètre Bleu he wore during our interview. But watches that transcend into the mind-to-watch realm hold the most importance. With season 15 of Shark Tank in full swing and a few other ventures in the queue (he teased a culinary endeavor on the horizon in Miami), we can’t wait to see which milestone he reaches next — in life… And on his wrist.

crowning achievements is the 44GS, which has left an indelible mark on the horological world since its introduction in 1967. This watch would become a beacon of the Grand Seiko Style. With its distinctive case, impeccable finishing, and captivating dial, the 44GS set new standards in watch design and craftsmanship. In 2013, Grand Seiko paid homage to the iconic model by introducing a modern interpretation that retained the essence of the original, while adapting it to contemporary design, ensuring that the Grand Seiko legacy continued to thrive. It was a testament to the enduring appeal of the 44GS design. Then, in 2022, the watchmaker continued the evolution of the design by releasing a new mid-size variant. With a case diameter of 36.5mm, it became the smallest in the series. This introduction heralded a new era for the 44GS, catering to enthusiasts who appreciated its timeless aesthetics in a more compact form. The culmination of this evolution arrives in the form of the SBGW297 and SBGW299, the latest additions to the Grand Seiko Heritage Collection. Both are distinguished as Master Shop models, a distinction that underscores the exceptional craftsmanship behind their creation. At 36.5mm in diameter, 11.6mm in thickness, and just 42.7mm in length from lug tip to lug tip, the cases of SBGW297 and SBGW299 are a nod to the proportions of the ‘67 original. These cases have been meticulously redesigned to maximize the potential of Grand Seiko’s slim, manual-winding Caliber 9S64.
The case finishing is accomplished using Grand Seiko’s signature Zaratsu method — highly skilled artisans employ this technique to create mirror-polished surfaces that contrast seamlessly with areas adorned with Grand Seiko’s distinctive hairline finishing. Each step of this intricate process is performed by hand, requiring years to master. In true Grand Seiko fashion, the dials of SBGW297 and SBGW299 are works of art. The former boasts a pristine white dial, while the latter features a captivating darkblue hue — both showcase a dramatic sunray pattern that dances elegantly with the interplay of light, creating a visual spectacle. The bezels, multi-faceted indexes, and hands have been carefully reimagined to complement the scaled-down dimensions. A box-shaped sapphire crystal protects the dial, infusing warmth into the design and connecting it to its midcentury predecessor. Powering these timepieces is the Caliber 9S64, a mechanical manual-winding movement assembled by the skilled artisans of the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi. This movement undergoes rigorous testing in six positions over 17 days, exceeding the chronometer standard. It adheres to the Grand Seiko Standard of -3 to +5 seconds and boasts a 72-hour power reserve when fully wound. In the world of horology, where heritage meets innovation, the Grand Seiko Heritage Collection SBGW297 and SBGW299 stand as timeless tributes to the 44GS legacy. @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 43

Sizing Down The Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet collection welcomes a new 38mm size. BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE

IN AN UNEXPECTED NEWS CYCLE THIS FALL, AUDEMARS PIGUET
released a new 38mm case size to their iconic Code 11.59 collection. At Watches & Wonders in March, we saw the smaller case size assert its dominance, so this smaller size addition doesn’t come as much of a surprise, yet we’re still here for the slimmer case size movement. The 38mm Code 11.59 is introduced in two models that complement the collection’s existing 1 and 2mm o erings. Despite the reduced size, these two timepieces have retained the aesthetics that define the Code 11.5 collection. The case consists of an octagonal middle case, nestled within an extra-thin bezel, and a rounded caseback. The lugs, a hallmark of the collection’s design, showcase impeccable craftsmanship — the upper part is seamlessly welded to the bezel, while the lower portion aligns elegantly with the caseback. This modern case design receives the same meticulous attention to detail as Audemars Piguet’s renowned calibers, with a refined combination of satin-brushing and polished chamfers that accentuate its multifaceted architecture. Building on the collection’s design evolution introduced earlier this year, the crown of the new 38mm models boasts shallower but more pronounced indentations, adding another layer of geometrical complexity to the case. The two 18-karat pink gold models add elegant contrasts to the collection. The first one features a dynamic purple dial complemented by a matching strap; the second one exudes a more understated yet brilliantly radiant ivory aesthetic.
The embossed dial, crafted in collaboration with Swiss guilloché craftsman Yann von Kaenel, presents a mesmerizing gradient structure. Hundreds of tiny holes emanate from the dial’s center in a captivating wave-like pattern, creating mesmerizing color e ects. To achieve the rich purple and ivory hues, a process known as PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is employed, preserving and enhancing the depth of the embossed pattern while maximizing the interplay of light. The new faceted and polished hour-markers and hands further accentuate the contrasts on the dial. For optimum legibility in low-light conditions, the hands are filled with luminescent coating. At the heart of these watches is Audemars Piguet’s latest selfwinding movement, Calibre 5900. This movement, which made its debut in 2022 on select 37mm Royal Oak references, boasts a slim 4mm thickness, a high 4Hz frequency, and an impressive 60-hour power reserve. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail are visible through the sapphire caseback, which reveals the movement’s 22-karat pink gold oscillating weight and refined decorations adorning its components. Each timepiece is paired with a “large square scale” alligator strap that matches the dial’s tone, secured by the collection’s new 18-karat pink gold pin buckle. Additionally, two rubber-coated straps — lined with calfskin leather and adorned with a textile pattern in ivory or purple hues — will be available exclusively in Audemars Piguet boutiques. @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 45

In Sync Louis Vuitton collaborates with Akrivia’s Rexhep Rexhepi collection to create the perfect timepiece, the LVRR-01 Chronographe à Sonnerie. IN PERHAPS ONE OF THE BIGGEST INDUSTRY PLOT TWISTS
of the year, Louis uitton and Akrivia designed a first-of-its-kind timepiece. At the helm of Louis Vuitton Watches, Jean Arnault has kept us on the edge of our seats with the release of his new design direction for the brand earlier this year. And if I could sum it up in two words, it would easily be, “fresh blood.” As the youngest Arnault, Jean has made his vision for the maison very clear: the collections will be clean, contemporary, and cool. And while the collaboration came as quite a surprise, Rexhep Rexhepi makes perfect sense. The L RR-01 Chronographe Sonnerie is a double-faced chronograph with a chiming complication. Showcasing each brand’s design ingenuity on their respective sides, it is a true standout. The L RR-01 is not just a feast for the eyes; it’s an auditory delight, too. The watch houses a unique combination of complications: a chronograph, a sonnerie mechanism, and a tourbillon. While the integration of a chronograph and a striking mechanism has historical precedents in pocket watches, it’s a groundbreaking achievement in contemporary watchmaking. The chronograph functions are controlled by a pusher at two o’clock, with an acoustic reminder of elapsed time — a beautiful chime that sounds every minute. What sets the L RR-01 apart even further, is its movement design. Unlike conventional movements, the watch features an inverted caliber, with the chronograph and chiming mechanisms 46 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com
visible on the front instead of the back. This ingenious design allows the wearer to admire the exquisite craftsmanship of the movement continuously. The movement features meticulous hand-applied decorations, such as anglage and black polishing, showcasing the highest levels of watchmaking expertise. The platinum case of the L RR-01 is a testament to both Louis Vuitton’s iconic Tambour shape and Rexhep Rexhepi’s recognizable design. The tall, sloping bezel and elegantly sculpted lugs draw inspiration from mid-century gentlemen’s wristwatches. Even the crown and chronograph pusher, with their seven-sided form, are handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, displaying the artistry that both brands bring to the table. For me, one of the most intriguing aspects of this timepiece is the emblem that graces its sapphire dial. At first glance, it appears to be the conventional Louis Vuitton logo. But after closer inspection, it reveals a clever merging of the Louis Vuitton and Akrivia names, with “LV” subtly intertwined with “AKRIVIA.” The emblem represents not only the watch’s aesthetics, but also the historical link between the two brands. Indeed, this is the first time in Louis Vuitton’s history that its logo is combined with another brand’s — a symbol of the unique nature of this alliance.

The Art of Exploration Vacheron Constantin unveils a new 35mm self-winding Overseas to mark its latest “One of Not Many” campaign with artist and explorer Zaria Forman. BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE
THIS FALL, WE WERE ON THE GROUND IN ICELAND WITH
PHOTOS COURTESY OF VACHERON CONSTANTIN
Vacheron Constantin as they broke the news, revealing the new 35mm self-winding Overseas. And while this timepiece is certainly a beauty and perfect addition to the Overseas collection — it is dressed in the opulence of pink gold from case to bracelet — it also tells a story. The 35mm self-winding Overseas is not just a watch; it represents the essence of the Vacheron Constantin “One of Not Many” campaign, in collaboration with the artist and explorer Zaria Forman. Forman’s work is a testament to her dedication to exploring remote locations in nature — specifically Iceland — and capturing their beauty at that point in time. As I listened to Forman talking about her works, I immediately drew the parallel to Vacheron Constantin’s unwavering commitment to designing products that are inspired by the intricacies of nature. Similar to Vacheron Constantin’s fascination with nature, Forman developed a deep love for landscape at an early age, becoming fascinated with the ever-evolving properties found in nature. “When you love something, you want to protect it,” Forman explained as we were wandering through Iceland. Forman’s works become ephemeral portraits of the landscapes we stand to loose; ultimately, freezing them in time.
Back to time — the new Overseas exudes a radiant personality, highlighted by its monochromatic design that plays with the warm reflections of pink gold, both in its case and bracelet. The dial, adorned with a sunburst satin-brushed finish and coated with transparent lacquer, radiates with a harmonious tone-on-tone brilliance that captivates the eye. A total of 90 diamonds, meticulously set on the six-sided bezel resembling the iconic Maltese cross, adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the slim cu -like profile of the watch. Beyond its appearance, the watch houses a movement that guarantees exemplary reliability. Caliber 1088/1, the beating heart of this timepiece, comprises 144 components and operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, ensuring precise timekeeping. The inclusion of a stop-second mechanism enables accurate adjustments of time functions, a testament to Vacheron Constantin’s commitment to precision. The movement also boasts a generous 40-hour power reserve, ensuring that you stay on time no matter where your adventures take you. A work of art from the inside out, the back of the self-winding Overseas features a meticulously decorated open caseback. The rear bridges feature exquisite Côtes de Genève, showcasing the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship. The emblematic rotor, sculpted in gold and adorned with a compass rose, adds a touch of wanderlust to evoke the spirit of travel and exploration.

Luxury brand Raffles has come to play in the States in a big way, opening its first North American property in Boston’s Back Bay. The 35-story, 147room, sustainable, new-build hotel represents the first mixed-use development for the 136-year-old Singaporean brand. The $400 million investment in the project is a reflection here: this LEED-certified building is a beautiful property, with a dramatic exterior sheathed in reflective glass — a tribute to its neighbor, the John Hancock Tower. Awardwinning hospitality design firm Stonehill Taylor drew inspiration from the city’s historic and cultural surroundings to imagine the locally inspired design. Guests will notice details like copper accents (a nod to Paul Revere’s copper plating company), historical illustrations that adorn custom wall coverings, and greenery that references the window boxes found throughout the Back Bay. There are dramatic, unique touches throughout the hotel as well, chief among them a three-story sky lobby, a grand staircase that spirals through the atrium, and Writer’s Lounge, a signature of the Raffles brand. Upscale dining experiences are available too. Guests can visit Amar, a Portuguese-Bostonian hybrid; Long Bar & Terrace, a Paolo Ferrari-designed lounge that pairs cocktails with sweeping views of the South End; and Blind Duck, a speakeasy that offers specially crafted cocktails and small bites. There’s also a range of amenities, all of which have been designed by the world-renowned Rockwell Group: a state-of-the-art gym, a 66-foot pool, and a prestigious Guerlain Spa that features treatments of the renowned Parisian beauty and wellness brand. 40 Trinity Pl, Boston, MA 02116

Aman New York is one of those rare properties; the one that comes along once in a blue moon and makes such a significant impact that it has all of the world — never mind all of Manhattan — abuzz. The JeanMichel Gathy-designed property is nothing less than an oasis in the city, so quietly luxurious that it’s very nearly like not being in New York at all. Yet, here it is: smack dab in the center, on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, two blocks away from Central Park, close to Broadway, Rockefeller Center, and more. Its 83 suites are among the largest in the city and inspired by the airy architecture of Aman’s properties in Southeast Asia. All suites offer a functioning fireplace and massive, opulent bathrooms with oval soaking tubs, marble rain showers, and double vanities. There’s so much to love here, from the personalized check-in processes and a house car — rare for New York — to a gratis minibar of decadent treats (excluding alcohol) and daily scheduled wellness activities. Speaking of which, its Aman Spa is a spot where relaxation is almost a prerequisite, with offerings meant to detox, ground, and energize. Dining outlets follow suit: the convivial Italian restaurant Arva, Japanese eatery Nama, and year-round outdoor Garden Terrace all offer breathtaking views of the Big Apple (the subterranean Jazz Club intentionally does not). The hotel now offers even more: a partnership with Leica provides options for a personal photoshoot; a session with a renowned fashion photographer and model gives an in-depth look at the industry; and a three-day workshop helps guests master portrait photography with renowned celebrity photographer Mark Mann. Also available are experiences with artists for one-on-one sit-down sessions, art historian guided city tours, and more. It’s the personalized touches that make this so magical — because where else would one expect to receive a hand-drawn, personalized art card after a special meal? 730 5th Ave, New York, NY 10019 50 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com

FONTAINEBLEAU LAS VEGAS
The opening of Fontainebleau Las Vegas is easily the biggest of the year, and I do mean in every way: scope, size, prestige, and fanfare. The hotel, which makes its debut this month on December 13, is a 67-story affair residing on nearly 25 acres of land at the end of the Las Vegas Strip with 3,644 luxury rooms and suites, 550,000 square feet of customizable meeting and convention space, more than 150,000 square feet of gaming space, a collection of world-class restaurants and shops, exquisite pools, vibrant nightlife, and vitality-enhancing spa and wellness offerings. It features designs and collaborations with some of the best players in the game: Carlos Zapata Studio, David Collins Studio, Rockwell Group, Lissoni & Partners, Jeff Leatham, Lifescapes, and Jeffrey Beers International, among others. The rooms and suites, as designed by an in-house team led by Fontainebleau Development’s John Rawlins, evoke an understated, timeless elegance in a color palette of blue and silver water tones with dashes of coral-pink, accented by mercury-glass mirrors and brass details. Silver-grey wood veneer, silver-leaf details, pearlescent shagreen inlaid surfaces, and Arabescato marble define the case-goods and other hard surfaces, while custom brass bowtie-shaped drawer-pulls represent both exquisite attention to detail and a nod to Fontainebleau’s history. The rooms also feature custom carpeting in a linear, Art Deco pattern of dove-grey and shades of blue that establish a geometric foundation for the assorted curvaceous furniture selections that rest upon it. As opulent as the rooms are, it’s the sheer scale of the F&B concepts that blow my mind: there will be 36 first-to-market restaurants and bars, which will open this year and continue to roll out through 2024. They include efforts by chefs such as Gabriela Cámara, Evan Funke, and Josh Capon, and restaurateurs inclusive of David Rodolitz, Alan Yau, and David Grutman, who will be debuting the Sin City versions of his Miami staples Komodo and Papi Steak. As if this wasn’t enough, there is a 14,000-square-foot fitness center and 55,000-square-foot spa with 44 treatment rooms, a purifying salt cave, healing infrared sauna and invigorating event sauna, his & hers hydrotherapy lounges, as well as a co-ed sensory room with communal healing waters. Additional resort amenities will include a 96,500-squarefoot luxury boutique retail district on the first two levels of the resort, a six-acre pool district, the LIV nightlife experience, and the forthcoming LIV BEACH daylife experience. 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

HOTEL PER LA
Los Angeles has been having a bit of a hotel renaissance in recent years, and this is apparent in Hotel Per La, the latest five-star stay to open downtown. As with many things in the area, what’s old has become new again. The hotel is housed in the former Giannini Place building, originally built in 1922 as the headquarters of the Bank of Italy. Reimagined by HN Capital Partners and Sage Hospitality Group, the property features 241 rooms and suites, as well as grand public spaces for guests and locals alike. The hotel includes 10,000 square feet of event space and an array of dining options such as Ristorante Per L’Ora, an upscale Italian restaurant; Café Ora, a daytime café; and Bar Clara, a rooftop bar offering poolside drinks and dramatic views of the LA skyline. “Per La” — “for the” in Italian — is a nod to the building’s Italian beginnings: its founder, Amadeo Pietro Giannini, believed in the dignity and abilities of those commonly overlooked, and as such, “Per La” means “for Los Angeles, and people like you.” Today, the 12-story property retains the building’s signature neoclassical architectural features. Doric columns, ornate gold and blue ceilings, and marble floors meet modern touches like airy linens, amorphic lighting, and pops of colors. The rooms are just as exquisite. They feature European white oakwood floors and Persian rugs in vibrant colors alongside 4,000 vintage art pieces, original photographs, and illustrations from commissioned artists. The marble writing desks with settees and Europeanstyle bathrooms with Terrazzo floored walk-in showers or freestanding pedestal bathtubs complete the spaces. The addition of a heated rooftop pool makes this one to beat. 649 S Olive St, Los Angeles, CA 90014
The newly opened St. Regis Chicago has a pretty impressive pedigree: the 101-story tower is the tallest building in the world designed by a female architect, and who wouldn’t be here for that? Beyond this unique selling point, its design is very creative, featuring a distinctive design made of an interconnected series of stacked, frustum-shaped towers that extend to various heights. The building’s crystalline form nods to the facets of a shimmering gem, with a gradient of greenblue glass inspired by nature, meant to be a reflection of the colors of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River. Its 159 guestrooms and 33 suites, all designed by Gensler in a curated palette of natural stone and wood, follow suit on the nature front. In contrast, the hotel’s common spaces, spa, and Presidential Suite, designed by KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group, are decorated in metallic materials and colors such as copper and rust. Interwoven, geometric details and angular lines nod to the Great Chicago Fire as well as the city’s geographic interconnectivity of waterways, buildings, and green spaces. These modern elements are found throughout the hotel, from the fitness center, which overlooks the Chicago River and Navy Pier, to the palatial, heated indoor pool that offers stunning views of the city and Lake Michigan. Add in fabulous Japanese cuisine from the likes of chef Hisanobu Osaka, desserts courtesy of pastry chef Juan Gutierrez—winner of Netflix’s School of Chocolate — and a soon-to-openTuscan steakhouse in Tre Dita, the first venture outside of Los Angeles for award-winning chef Evan Funke; an amazing spa; and signature St. Regis experiences, including afternoon tea, evening champagne sabering, and butler service, and the St. Regis may very well become your new Chi-town go-to. 401 E Wacker Dr, Chicago, IL 60601

The new crowning jewel of Dallas’ 19-block Harwood District is Hôtel Swexan, a 134-room boutique concept that charmingly fuses the family-owned property’s Swiss heritage with quintessential Texan hospitality. It is, indeed, where its rather unique name comes from, “Swexan” meaning “Swiss meets Texan.” The hotel has a serious pedigree as well: it’s located in a 22-story modern tower designed by world-renowned Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, who was not only recognized as one of Time magazine’s most influential people of 2021, but who is responsible for the Tokyo Olympic stadium, the new Rolex Building in Harwood District, and the LVMH headquarters in Japan. The mirrored structure exemplifies Kuma’s philosophy that buildings should enrich the connection between their architecture and the environment they’re in. And in the case of Hôtel Swexan, the interiors mirror the exterior, with art and design elements inspired by exploration and adventure drawing cues from various global cities inclusive of 100 different types of natural stones and woods and decorations of antique fireplace mantels from the 19th and 20th centuries. One of the hotel’s hallmark features is that every bathroom is one-of-akind, covered with different wallpapers, lighting, sink fixtures, floors, and tiling. There are also eight unique suites, five dining and drinking concepts, a private social club, and an expansive rooftop pool with panoramic views of the Dallas skyline. 2575 McKinnon St, Dallas, TX 75201

It suits the city to a “T,” housed as such in a refined, mid-century modern building with a glass-and-steel facade. The hotel’s coveted location in verdant Buffalo Bayou Park centers the property as a true oasis within the city, a 160-acre green space adjacent to downtown Houston overflowing with diverse flora that is delightfully close to Montrose, the city’s artistic hub. The 172 guestrooms, 34 of which are suites, play to its strengths, showcasing glorious views of the H-Town skyline and Buffalo Bayou Park from floor-to-ceiling windows. Each room is fresh and modern, paying homage to the hotel’s natural surroundings through a synthesis of earthy colors, organic materials, and hardwood flooring. The attention to detail here is as excellent as the views: from an unparalleled honor bar stocked with delicious local goodies to the spa-grade plush robes and professional-grade Tivoli audio systems, every detail is designed to make guests feel like true VIPs. That each room is decked out with a custom en-suite bathroom featuring luxury-grade stone wall treatments, rose-gold and bronze fixtures, and D.S. & Durga bath and body products only furthers this point. All guests are also treated to one of Houston’s largest pool decks — an astonishing acre in size — with a laid-back café, private cabanas, as well as a peerless infinity pool with unobstructed downtown views.

The transformation of this five-star boutique hotel includes an array of newly developed concepts, including a change of culinary and cocktail recipes at Mayfair Grill, the Fountain Bar, and Sipsip Calypso Rum Bar. The place features fully renovated guest rooms and curated art from local and international artists inclusive of glass pieces by Verre Eglomise artist Jane Richardson Mack, a lobby installation by Miami multimedia artist Michele Oka Doner, and a hand-painted wall mural by Bahamian artist Angelika Wallace-Whitfield. Additional art by Ryan Humphrey, Lee Clarke, Shauna Lan La, and photographer Anita Calero are highlighted in the guest rooms. Architect Kenneth Treister’s framework is still very much intact, but the hotel’s interiors have been updated to resemble small private homes, complete with terraces, as well as living, dining, and sleeping areas courtesy of New York-based interior design studio Goodrich. Guest rooms offer thoughtful luxuries, including carved wooden headboards, deep standalone bathtubs, private walled gardens, and outdoor showers. As a tribute to the neighborhood’s inherent freedom of expression, each room at Mayfair House Hotel & Garden is unique, promising guests a new experience each time they visit. Impressively the same with each visit, however, is the hotel’s vibrant and sun-filled courtyard and garden, filled with lush plantings, cascading fountains, beautiful pools, fanciful copper lighting, and sculptural architectural details that make for a stunning, secret garden-like touch. 3000 Florida Avenue, Miami, FL 33133

When it comes to unparalleled quiet luxury, no one does it better than Nobu Matsuhisa and his business partners, Robert De Niro and Meir Teper. As such, their Nobu Hotel Atlanta, located in the Phipps Plaza’s luxury retail development within the prestigious Buckhead neighborhood, is as excellent as can be expected. Atlanta, Georgia’s capital, is known as the “city in a forest” because of its exceptionally lush canopy of trees such as magnolias, dogwoods, Southern pines, and oaks, which cover much of the city. The designers at Rockwell Group took inspiration from this verdant landscape as well as Japanese arts and crafts to create a design that echoes the ethos of Matsuhisa’s signature, world-renowned Japanese cuisine. This means a property of 152 thoughtfully curated guest rooms — including 27 suites — that feature Japanese inspired décor, the largest of which is the Nobu Villa at 2,200 square feet of space. The most unique plae to stay is the 825-square-foot Porsche suite, a collaboration with the luxury auto brand whose US headquarters are in Atlanta. Here, guests will find best-in-class amenities consistent with Nobu’s signature style but customized for the Porsche minded-lifestyle inclusive of one-of-a-kind art pieces that pepper the spacious living area; sleek, Porsche-inspired décor; exclusive memorabilia that celebrates some of the brand’s key moments; and a selection of coffee table books that provide guests with an inside look into the notable brand. There’s also a Porsche house car available for guests — a Taycan — and the utterly cool Porsche experience, which includes a two-night stay in the Porsche Icon Suite, dinner for two at Nobu Atlanta, a Nobu champagne bottle inroom, a personalized Porsche robe to take home, and an omakase tasting for two.

A Realtor with a wealth of experience and expertise in both the Philadelphia and Florida real estate markets. Having grown up just outside Philadelphia, I have a deep understanding of the local communities and their unique real estate landscape. I hold a B.S.B.A. Degree in Marketing & Sales from Bloomsburg University, which has provided me with a solid foundation for my career. Over the past five years, I have made a name for myself in the industry, starting my journey in Philadelphia and honing my skills as a Realtor. Throughout my five years in Philadelphia and two years in Florida, I have achieved an impressive sales volume of over $25 million in Pennsylvania, completing more than 50 successful transactions. I specialize in luxury properties and new construction, benefiting from my background in real estate development. This background allows me to uncover hidden opportunities and provide invaluable advice to my clients. In 2023 alone, I have already achieved remarkable results, selling a total of $6 million+ in real estate. Currently, I have over $27 million worth of active listings in Florida and an additional $3.2 million+ of active listings in Philadelphia & $2M pending. These numbers reflect both my abilities as a Realtor and my commitment to delivering outstanding results for my clients.

There’s no denying that Louis Vuitton is a pioneer in marrying the worlds of luxury fashion and travel, whether it’s with its original signature trunk or its latest travel photography collection. Louis Vuitton’s Fashion Eye Series has carved a niche where legends of the craft and emerging talents engage in an unprecedented dialogue. This extraordinary series confronts the contemporary with hidden archival treasures, resulting in a collection of visually captivating photography books set to become reference works. Each title is a true masterpiece, entrusted with the hands of prominent, authoritative editors who guide readers through extensive imagery while sharing a glimpse of each photographer’s life through interviews and critical essays. Always celebrating the art of exploration, Louis Vuitton recently added three new titles to the series — Vienna by Stefanie Moshammer, Hong Kong by Frank Horvat, and Deauville by Omar Victor Diop, all providing a unique perspective. Joining an impressive repertoire of cities ranging from Paris to Buenos Aires, the new Fashion Eye titles continue to redefine the relationship between fashion, photography, and travel.

Hong Kong, imagined by Italian-born French photographer Horvat, captures the bustling streets of the city to reveal its palpable energy through previously unpublished black-and-white images. Horvat’s project started in 1962, when he captured these images at a time shaped by an influx of Chinese refugees and British rule. Now historic in its own right, the imagery gives a glimpse at a bygone era of this dense city.

Miami’s Hidden Gem Luxury Boutique Hotel: Mr. C Miami Coconut Grove Seamlessly blending modern Miami with Italy’s dolce vita lifestyle, Mr. C Miami Coconut Grove embodies timeless elegance, refined luxury, and unrivaled charm, bringing European flair to the historic Coconut Grove neighborhood. BY MARY GIBSON
latest luxury boutique hotel conceived by the Cipriani hotel family. Beautifully fusing classic Italian architecture with nautical details to marry the unfading allure of both the Amalfi Coast and South Florida’s Biscayne Bay, Mr. C Miami is one of the city’s most captivating destinations. Known for its royal poinciana tree-lined streets, lush green parks, and sweeping views of the glistening waters of the bay, Coconut Grove is Miami’s original neighborhood, steeped in history and favored by artists, intellectuals, and those seeking a tropical oasis of tranquility within Miami. Dining is at the core of the experience at Mr. C. From the minds of hospitality magnates Ignazio and Maggio Cipriani, guests and locals are invited to indulge in the culinary delights of the hotel’s signature restaurant, Bellini, perched on the hotel’s sun-drenched rooftop that o ers breathtaking views of the bay. Inspired by the brothers’ Italian heritage, Bellini’s thoughtfully curated menu brings a contemporary edge to a much-loved authentic Italian cuisine and features classic Cipriani dishes. For a casual bite, Il Giardino, the hotel’s secret garden café, specializes in sweet and savory made-to-order crepes, healthy bites, and tantalizing cocktail blends that include the iconic Bellini, an original recipe invented by Giuseppe Cipriani in 1 8. Surrounded by large blue-and-white striped parasols and luscious greenery, Il Giardino mirrors the enchanting ambiance of a quaint café nestled within Italy’s coastal enclaves, sparking glimpses of dolce vita in the heart of Coconut Grove. The six-story property also features a stunning rooftop pool that is made complete with luxurious private cabanas and panoramic views of the sparkling Biscayne Bay. The fitness center is home to Technogym equipment, the wellness center and spa o er B Atala products, and the hotel’s very own private beach is located a short ride away from the hotel. The art is the work of world-renowned Italian-born photographer Carlo Borlenghi, who spent his life globe-trotting and capturing the most iconic nautical events across the world. Borlenghi’s maritime art e ortlessly blends with the coastal look of the resort and its azure and white-colored terrazzo floors. It also perfectly matches the glossy wood paneling inspired by the seaside Italian culture and the sleek interior of a modern yacht. Celebrating royal blue ocean waters, imposing sailboats, and panoramic sunset views, Borlenghi’s classic yet contemporary visual approach exudes coastal glamour and soft-hued sophistication. Serving as an enchanting focal point around the hotel, the artworks authentically connect with Coconut Grove’s whimsical natural surroundings, enticing guests to be immersed in the artful wonders of this five-star hotel. 130 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
