COVER STORY

aluma takes center stage at Madison Square Garden, and the audience is in a frenzy. The sold-out show has everyone on their feet singing along and swaying to the rhythmic beat of every song. This is the third stop of his sold-out F.A.M.E. tour. Juan Luis Londoño Arias, better known as Maluma, who thoughtfully created his stage name by combining the first two letters of his mother’s name (Marlli), his father’s (Luis) and his sister’s (Manuela) respectively, is the youngest Colombian artist to accomplish this feat. Hailing from Medellín, Colombia, the 24-year-old has accomplished more in his short years in the music industry than most artists achieve their whole careers. He has been selling out arenas internationally, closing the iconic Dolce & Gabbana Men’s Collection Fashion Show in Milan and most recently announcing that he and Jason Derulo have recorded and will perform Coca-Cola’s 2018 FIFA World Cup song “Colors” this coming summer.
At the young age of 17, Maluma chose his love and passion for music over soccer after just one studio session. He then began this journey that has led him straight into the hearts of all his fans, women and men alike—just ask Marc Anthony—and he is not looking back. All of his accomplishments still find a very grounded young man who cites his love for his family and his connection to his faith as his biggest inspirations and motivation behind everything he does. Here, the “Felices los 4” heartthrob sits with Haute Living and candidly shares how he is feeling right now and his plans to be very close to you very soon. HL: Last night, you performed at the Garden, how did that feel for you? M: Last night was something iconic. I felt like I took a huge step in my career and my life. I feel like I’m on another level after Madison Square Garden. I used to dream about this when I was a child—this was the venue that I always wanted to be at, and yesterday it happened, so I am very, very happy, and I feel like it’s just the beginning. HL: You are setting a separate lane for yourself, elevating the reggaeton experience; how do you characterize your music? M: Actually, my job in this era, in the music industry, is to be something different. I don’t like when I am called a reggaeton artist because my genre is the Maluma genre. That’s what I always want to show to my audience. My shows are not reggaeton shows; my music is something different—it is Maluma Music. I feel like right now I have a huge responsibility on my shoulders, and it’s beautiful because I feel like I’m doing something different, and people are taking notice.
HEARTTHROB The music sensation has quickly won over the hearts of all who listen to him around the world.
HL: Who is styling your show? M: Dolce & Gabbana is working with me on the whole tour. We are close friends—we have a nice relationship, and as soon as I started planning this tour I called Stefano [Gabbana] and told him that I wanted the brand to be a part of the tour. I’m wearing exclusive clothing straight from the runway—they are one of one pieces. One jacket, one pant, one T-shirt. I’m trying to take the whole movement in the way I look and dress to another level. HL: How old were you when you knew that you wanted to sing? M: I was 16, 17 years old when I was in the studio for the first time, and from that moment I knew that it was going to be my life. It was the thing that I was going to choose. I feel very grateful because I think I made the right decision. I used to play soccer, and after I started recording I knew this was the right choice. This was the thing that I wanted to do my whole life—make music. HL: Is being on the road difficult being away from your family? M: Actually, they are here right now with me. They came for this concert, and they are going to be with me almost the whole tour. I think they are my angels; they are everything to me. And I work and I do everything for them. I think about my future, but I think about them first. They are my motivation.

Revolution Famed chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten discusses new food trends and how he’s transforming plant-based dishes into a fine-dining experience. BY: PAIGE MASTRANDREA

uring the highly anticipated SOBEWFF week, Haute Living had the chance to catch up with James Beard Award-winning
chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten at his Miami home base—The Miami Beach EDITION. While the chef was busy soaking up the sun and catching up with close friends at the festival, he also was in the midst of hosting some of SOBEWFF’s most coveted events, such as the abcV Vegan Brunch, as well as Española Way’s Midnight Eats with Action Bronson. Here, the acclaimed chef discusses how the Miami culinary market compares to other cities, how vegan food is transforming the dining scene, his favorite aspects of SOBEWFF week and what he has coming for us in 2018.

WHY TILMAN J. FERTITTA IS THE ULTIMATE BILLION-DOLLAR BUYER BY LAURA SCHREFFLER
TILMAN J. FERTITTA IS ANYTHING BUT YOUR AVERAGE BILLIONAIRE. CASE IN POINT: WHEN ASKED about the first major purchase he made after becoming a billionaire, the man responsible for the largest deal in NBA history—the 2017, $2.2 billion-dollar purchase of the Houston Rockets—says he can’t remember. “You don’t wake up one day and say you’re a millionaire or billionaire; it just kind of happens,” Fertitta maintains from his home base of Houston, Texas. “You get a financial statement, and you say, ‘I’m worth a million dollars.’ When I went public in 1993 and private in 2010, I bought a place in Beaver Creek at the Park Hyatt. Somewhere along the way you buy a boat, you buy another business. I’m more into buying businesses than I am buying toys. Business is my hobby; I just love it.”

One of the ways to stay on top of your game is to put millennials around you to self-check certain things, and I do that all the time.” Luckily, he can afford to buy himself some time, thanks to his trusty Gulfstream V jet. “To be able to get anywhere, whenever you want and not spend all that wasted time in a public air terminal is a luxury. I haven’t flown commercial since 1991,” he confides, adding, “I’m not saying that in a brag-ish way, I’m saying it in a very fortunate, loving, humble way that I haven’t had to. I hope I never have to experience it again, but if I did, that’s just the way it is. You adjust.

The Ultimate Way To Store Your Prized Possessions
L
uxury is a way of life in Miami, and Collection Suites offers an innovative — and necessary — addition to that lifestyle.
The exclusive, one-of-a-kind storage space provides collectors with a way to display what they love — magnificent cars, fine wine, rare art — and entertain or conduct
a business meeting in the same space. Its 38 showrooms, which range from 2,000 to 2,600 square feet in size, can be customized to fit the needs of each unique collection. The suites are not merely a place to store valuable items — they’re also a sanctuary to enjoy them in a safe, enhanced, gallery-like space. The project’s creators understand the dilemmas facing collectors: They are collectors themselves. Lino Fayen was a racing driver whose career took him from France to Venezuela. His son Juan Manuel and grandson Lino were raised in that fast-paced world. The three generations of Fayens share the same passion for cars and collecting them (their personal collection includes Ferraris, Maseratis, Porsches and Lamborghinis).
Clients of Collection Suites “have the same passions, the same loves,” explains Juan Manuel Fayen. “Vehicles, art, wine…whatever is special to them, they are all enjoying it here in an exclusive community.”
The concept for Collection Suites arose out of necessity: The Fayens lived in Miami’s waterfront condos, where safe storage and parking are at a premium, and they lacked space to store their most valuable possessions. When they discovered that no facility met their needs, they created Collection Suites with an eye toward building and fostering a community of like-minded individuals. The Fayens’ passion is evident throughout the suites, which are equipped with built-in security cameras in every unit, LED lighting, large overhead doors, impact windows and a state-of-the-art entertainment system that can be connected and controlled through any smartphone. Additional opulent touches include Italian ceramic floors and cabinets, Swiss wood floors and top-of-the-line appliances. The nine largest suites have access to a private outdoor patio. Collectors can also tailor each space to fit their needs and desires, such as adding car lifts to maximize storage space or extending the mezzanine. The management is on-site, and the facility is enclosed behind concrete walls with remote access gates — and exceptional access to a real networking community.

Haute Residence hosted its highly-anticipated, fifth annual Real Estate Summit at New York’s prestigious, members-only CORE: Club. The event brought together some of the country’s leading real estate professionals for an all-day affair of three panels: Titans of Development, The Power Brokers and The Hamptons. The first panel of the day, Titans of Development, or, the “East Coast Kings,” was moderated by Fox Business Network’s Cheryl Casone and included six of the most successful real estate developers in the New York/Florida areas: Mitchell Moinian, Don Peebles, Dan Kodsi, Louis Birdman, Shahab Karmely and Michael Stern. The group covered a variety of topics, including political changes in the market, international buyers making New York and Florida real estate investments, the development of Miami as a globally-recognized destination and the differences between the real estate markets in Miami and New York. “It’s been a very exciting time in Miami, especially in the last 10 years,” began Louis Birman, CEO of Birdman Real Estate Development and co-developer of One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects in Miami. “A lot of our sales have been driven out of Latin

America and although that continues to be true, we’re also starting to see more interest out of other countries like in Europe and the Far East.” Dan Kodsi, developer of Paramount Miami Worldcenter, CEO of Royal Palm Companies and the visionary behind Paramount Branded Developments, echoed that sentiment. “In the past 10 years, we’ve seen the world recognize Miami as a major gate way city. Now you meet people from Europe and China. You never used to see that… When you get named with cities like London, Paris and New York, that’s a big deal for Miami.” He also called out Miami’s downtown area as the one to watch out for: “From Brickell to Miami Design District, it’ll feel like a miniature Manhattan once it develops out.” Mitchell Moinian, principal for The Moinian Group, also has an upcoming residential project in New York with the late and great Zaha Hadid, at 220 Eleventh Avenue; however, it is his 3 Hudson Boulevard development, that is garnering a lot of attention, given that the Hudson Yards area is set to be one of the next hotspots in Manhattan.

Guests enjoyed champagne and cocktails, along with hors d’oeuvres, while mingling with real estate professionals from all across the country and world in New York’s latest upscale hotspot. They also had the opportunity to chat with the esteemed panelists, most of whom were in attendance. Following the cocktail reception, a select group of guests were escorted upstairs to Scarpetta restaurant, for an intimate and private dinner with Ultralux Interiors. A New York staple, Scarpetta pulled out all the stops, serving delicious, signature dishes, including creamy polenta, short rib and bone marrow agnolotti, duck and foie gras ravioli, veal tenderloin, roasted organic chicken and its tomato and basil spaghetti.

A one-on-one with Dacra President and CEO Craig Robins of the Miami Design District.
IF YOU’RE A MIAMI NATIVE (OR A RECENT IMPORT), YOU’VE SURELY heard the name Craig Robins. As the President and CEO of Dacra—“a real estate development company that has a unique vision for cultivating strong and vibrant communities through a distinctive combination of commerce and culture,” per Craig Robins’ website—what he’s best known for is redeveloping Miami neighborhoods and transforming them into culturally-driven city hubs that have become globally-coveted destinations. For instance, Dacra played an integral role in the revitalization of Miami’s famed South Beach during the ’80s and ’90s. Today, his focus has shifted to Miami’s Design District, or MDD, which most recently hosted Watches & Wonders Miami. The four-day event, in conjunction with the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie, held major significance, given that this was the first time it had ever come to the US and Miami was its chosen American destintaion. We were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to sit down with Mr. Robins, to discuss the growth of MDD and Miami as a whole, as well as how the city matches up in comparison to the other major players in the US, such as New York and Los Angeles.

The expansive indoor space was transformed into an autumnal utopia, with the sunlight beaming through the high skylights, as well as tall, bare trees and fallen leaves in hues of brown, green and orange gracing the floor. Taking cues from the foliage-forward atmosphere, the collection complemented the natural backdrop perfectly, both in the materials and the colors used. Fabrics like tweed, cotton canvas, soft knits, velvet and corduroy were seasonally appropriate and paired well with accessories like thigh-high boots, fingerless gloves, faux fur cuffs adorned with feathers and bright scarves for a pop of color. Warm hues of pine green, russet, orange and bark brown married chicness and coziness in each piece, while additional details included “branch-like braids, jeweled buttons chiseled with leaves, sautoirs of beads and pastelhued glass paste, necklaces and bracelets interlaced with chains and beads, cabochon and graphic pendant earrings.” Classic Chanel pieces were also modernized, such as the iconic jacket in mid-length or short at the waist; the Chanel suit with poncho peplums; double-breasted coats; pencil skirts with slits and a dropped waist; oversized overcoats with feathered hems; and of course, the iconic Chanel LBD, or, Little Black Dress. Additionally, Karl Lagerfeld‘s latest bag creation, 31, joined the Chanel accessory family. The shopperstyle handbag is made with smooth leather, along with the complementary fabric choice of printed cotton, canvas or tweed. Mini versions of the Gabrielle bag also made appearances on the runway, along with others. Budding supermodel Kaia Gerber walked the runway while brand ambassadors like Keira Knightley and Lily Allen looked on. The transitional season reflected in the gorgeously appointed room reminded the audience and viewers of the stages and cycles of life. Who better to put the essence of the collection into words than Karl Lagerfeld himself, who said, “Chanel, it’s life itself. Clothes that have a possibility of life.”

UNE MAISON ITALIENNE Bottega Veneta opens its third and largest Maison on NYC’s Madison Avenue.
It’s no secret that New York City touts some of the world’s most exclusive brands and designers. And of course, every New Yorker knows there’s something special about the Madison Avenue boutiques, which historically, have been much more fashion-forward and even a bit funkier than their Fifth Avenue counterparts. Bottega Veneta—the newest neighbor on the block—has decided to take a more elegant and sophisticated approach, going back to its debut store opening outside of Italy in 1972.
The Italian fashion house has just opened its third and latest “Maison,” on famed Madison Avenue, the other two being in Milan (opened in 2013) and Beverly Hills (opened in 2016). With 15,000 square feet and even carrying the home and furniture collection of the super-haute brand, this shop is a mustsee addition to the Upper East Side, and the biggest BV ever built. “New York is one of the few cities that speaks to the rest of the world,” began ClausDietrich Lahrs, the brand’s CEO. “For this reason, we believe it’s an important investment and statement in terms of size and visibility.” The impressive

building is comprised of “three, landmarked 19th century townhouses that were originally private residences,” according to the brand. Combining expansive interior spaces as well as smaller, more intimate nooks and crannies, the collections are showcased on five floors, with the fourth floor housing the brand’s newest concept called The Apartment—Bottega Veneta’s home and furniture lines. “The store reflects the love and admiration I have for this city and its architecture,” said Tomas Maier, the Creative Director who designed the Maison. Inspired by Manhattan’s quintessential cityscape, Maier made specific, customized design choices to reflect the Concrete Jungle. For instance, he used varied metallic-hues to mirror the sun reflecting off of the city’s buildings, as well as grays and beiges, paying homage to the city streets. In addition to showcasing the Fall/Winter 2018 collection for the first time ever at New York Fashion Week, Maier also designed a 33-piece capsule collection called “Icons of New York,” for men and women. The line includes a unique selection of leather goods and bags, featuring quintessential New York themes, such as the subway and the skyline, which will surely be adored by New Yorkers and out-of-towners alike. Standout pieces include the “Intrecciato NY Chain Knot embroidered in silvery Lurex thread with a graphic skyline that, on closer look, is made up of tiny block letters spelling out ‘New York,’” and the “Intrecciato North-East workmanship, available on the Brick backpack and Citydoc document case, [which] portrays the soaring buildings in subtle embroidery as if drawn by a charcoal pencil.”

Sneakers have always been the more practical shoe choice, of course. But now that top designers and fashion houses are creating stylish and statement-making sneakers, the functional style has taken on new meaning as a deliberate and chic footwear option. In comes Dior Homme’s B22—the sneaker favored by fashionistos and sneaker heads alike. Available in mid-May at Dior Homme boutiques, the futuristic footwear style is made in Italy and doesn’t fall at all short of the high quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that one would expect from Dior Homme. Priced at just under $1,000, the B22 sneaker is PHOTOS COURTESY OF DIOR HOMME

Over the years, Stuart Weitzman has gained significant notoriety as the go-to choice for the strappy sandal—the iconic “Nudist”—and for the over-the-knee boot. But the New York-based shoe brand—with celebrity spokespeople Gigi Hadid and Kate Moss—is really about to kick it up a notch, not just with its shoe offering, but also with a new and diverse line of accessories. Under new Creative Director, Giovanni Morelli, fans of the brand can still expect to find a wide selection of gorgeous, wearable and on-trend sandals, sneakers, loafers, pumps and flats. For instance, the new SW612 sneaker, made from suede, touts a “sock-like construction and unique, contrasting sole, which can be folded in half for easy packing,” while the Lexy combat boot, with “a lug sole…is finished with wraparound laces on a noticeably streamlined silhouette.” ABOVE: The Veruka boot BELOW: Models Gigi Hadid and Kate Moss for Stuart Weitzman

ALL ABOUT THE LOGO Fendi relaunches its iconic FF logo with the FF Reloaded Capsule Collection, in stores and online.
This spring, Gucci is taking the classic loafer and giving it a modern twist that will make it the new classic.
The FENDI FF logo is one of the most recognizable and iconic designer logos in history, which is why it makes sense that the Italian fashion house has decided to bring it back, and in a big way. In its new FF Reloaded Capsule Collection, the brand has relaunched the FF signature, originally designed in 1965 by none other than Karl Lagerfeld. “When I arrived at FENDI in 1965 the five FENDI sisters asked me to create a small modern collection of furs,” began Lagerfeld. “But I also wanted them to be fun, which is one of the FENDI codes. And since FENDI and fun have the same initials, I sketched the two letters together in less than five seconds,

HUBLOT X RICHARD ORLINSKI 60
WHEN FINE WATCHMAKING MEETS ART
H
ublot is a watch brand that is not afraid to push the boundaries. Whether it is in terms of design, technology or materials, the brand has a passion for innovation, which means that it is not uncommon for them to push the boundaries of all three with a
single watch. Hublot is also a brand that enjoys collaborations, not only because of the synergy that it generates but also because the input of others takes Hublot out of its comfort zone. For the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski, it was the case that challenged Hublot, with its three-dimensional folds. This meant that the entire case of the Classic Fusion Aerofusion had to be rede-
signed, to accommodate the ridges and facets that are the signature of Richard Orlinski’s work. The fact that the two limited editions are made out of either titanium or blue ceramic didn’t make it any easier. Although the design is the same, the different materials made the two, limited editions (only 200 of each were made) look incredibly dissimilar. The titanium version is polished to perfection—another one of Orlinski’s signatures. This is quite a contrast with the blue ceramic version, which is bead blasted, giving it a matte finish. Combined with the black details and strap, it is a contrast of color, which makes it the more sporty-looking watch of the two.

Hublot's complete redesign of the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph also becomes evident at the back of the watch. From behind the sapphire glass of the reworked case back one gets to admire the HUB1155 automatic chronograph caliber. It has a 42-hour power reserve, and next to the chronograph function, it also

features the date. These complications are displayed on the sapphire crystal dial, which gives an insight into the inner workings of the movement, yet at the same time also allows for easy reading of the time, as well as the chronograph function. The Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski is yet another example how Hublot does collaborations that no other brand can. Both models are a work of art, in the style Richard Orlinski became famous for, but somehow still distinctly a Hublot. The combination results in a true expression of pure horological art.

color-coding that Pirelli uses for its Formula 1 racing tires. Both have a black titanium case, in which you can find Calibre 820SQ, with its signature skeletonized bridges and micro-rotor. Additionally, the strap is made from rubber, which comes from race tires that have been used by a Formula 1 car. The Excalibur Aventador S also gets two very exciting new additions to its lineup, each with a very different personality. The Excalibur Aventador S Blue is everything one might expect from a high-performance car. Powered by the RD103SQ movement, with its distinctive, double balance wheels, it is made from C-SMC carbon, which Lamborghini itself uses to craft its cars. The blue accents in the watch and the strap are put in contrast with red hands, minute markers and the outer ring of the dial. Combined, they offer a vibrant explosion of color. The Excalibur Aventador S Pink Gold shows the more formal side of the watch. For this version, Roger Dubuis fits a titanium container—which holds the movement—in a multi-layer carbon case, and a pink gold bezel, over-molded with black rubber. A few years ago this combination of materials was unheard of, yet now they are used combined to establish a synergy, which gives a new dynamic to luxury watchmaking.

TheHAUTE LISTAuto THE NEED FOR SPEED… AND COMFORT Lamborghini launches the Urus: The world’s first super SUV and the world’s fastest SUV
Lamborghini—a name long known for the most impressive sports cars—is raising the bar, yet again, with the launch of the Lamborghini Urus: The world’s first Super Sport Utility Vehicle. Staying true to Lamborghini’s dedication to gorgeous design, high performance and unparalleled power, the introduction of the Urus is a real game changer in the world of luxury SUVs. “The Lamborghini Urus is a visionary approach based on the infusion of Lamborghini DNA into the most versatile vehicle, the SUV,” began Stefano Domenicali, Automobili Lamborghini Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The Urus elevates the SUV to a level not previously possible: The Super SUV. It is a true Lamborghini in terms of design, performance, driving dynamics and emotion, as well as drivable every day in a range of environments. It is a culmination of intensive development and passionate skill to create a new breed of bull: A super SUV that transcends the boundaries of expectations and opens the door to new possibilities, for both our brand and our customers.” The technical details are just as impressive as one would expect from a Lamborghini. The Urus touts a new, front-mounted 4.0 liter V8 twin-turbo engine with 650 horsepower (478 kW) at 6,000 rpm and a maximum of 6,800 rpm. Accelerating from 0-100km/hour in just 3.6 seconds and with a top speed

of 305 km/h, it is the fastest SUV on the market. Additionally, its four-wheel drive system makes for an incredibly secure drive with highlyresponsive driving dynamics in all environments and weather conditions, as does the carbon ceramic brakes (CCB), and a range of wheel options from 21-23 inches, offered with summer, winter, all-season, all-train and sports tires—all of which were specially developed by Pirelli for the Lamborghini Urus. The interior boasts a fully-digital and customizable TFT display with animated 3D representation of information and a 3,003mm wheelbase with low seating position for all occupants. Though the Urus is a new style for the Lamborghini fleet, it is still, very recognizably, a Lamborghini. Inspired by the LM002 and other super Lamborghini sports cars, it retains the two-thirds body and one-third window ratio, though it offers a bit more space on the inside for the driver/passengers—five occupants in total. It also features “a dynamic, coupé-style fly line, accented by the frames doors and emphasizing the typical Lamborghini characteristic of a lower front end… The Y-shaped front air intakes, also a feature of the LM002, are detailed with the Italian flag: the Urus is born and made in Italy.” And that luxurious Italian style is a prominent feature through the vehicle, as it uses the most high quality leather, Alcantara, aluminum, carbon fiber and wood—some of which are customizable, per the buyer’s preferences.

While AMG’s collaboration with Cigarette Racing is covering the high-performance side, it was up to the United Kingdom’s Silver Arrows Marine to create a suitable luxury cruiser, the Arrow460-Granturismo. Here, sumptuous luxury comes before outright performance, as the Arrow460-Granturismo has been designed to pamper more than thrill. That’s not to say that the 460’s twin six-cylinder turbo diesels can’t raise a smile, but once you see the interior, you’ll understand that this is an S-Class that just happens to float. Up to 10 guests can relax in the Granturismo’s interior, with its large glazing and open layout creating a light, bright and spacious feeling. The blue and gray color scheme is complemented by the fine grain eucalyptus with Mercedes S-Class air conditioning ushering in the conditioned air.

APPAMAN FOR THE LITTLE MAN (OR LADY) With a wide range of styles for boys and girls, Appaman has become a favorite brand among celebrity parents. Celebrity parents are always the first ones in-the-know when it comes to the latest and greatest kids brands for their babes. Appaman has long been a celebrity-parent favorite. Norwegian founder and designer Harald Husum created the brand in 2003 and named it after his childhood companion—a stuffed animal made from corduroy named Appaman. Per the brand, “Appaman reflects the whimsical spirit of those youthful times and celebrates the unbreakable bond between a boy and his ape.” Taking inspiration from streetwear, Husum fuses these elements into his pieces, creating gorgeous, high-quality clothes that are fun and even sophisticated for the little ones. There are a few pieces that celebrity parents are particularly fond of. For instance, Kim Kardashian loves the Pink Fur Coat; Hilaria and Alec Baldwin love the Adler Tee in pumpkin spice, the Nikki Bomber in Rose Quartz and the Long KEEPING UP WITH REIGN Reign Disick poses for a shot with his aunt, while wearing Appaman.
Down Coat in sparkle black; Ashlee Simpson loves the Tibetan Red Velvet Mod Suit; and Gwen Stefani loves the Seaport Velvet Mod Suit. Several celebrity kids turn to the brand for more formal styles, such as Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick‘s son Reign Disick—with aunt Khloé Kardashian (pictured to the left) wearing a sophisticated Appaman look.

MATCHING MINI WITH MOMMY Mott50 creates matching mother-and-baby swim styles for the most adorable, photo-ready moments.
Who could forget when Chrissy Teigen posted that absolutely adorable photo of her and her daughter, Luna, twinning in avocado-print swimsuits? That may have been one of the most memorable celebrity mom-and-baby moments in history. The brand that makes the matching styles is called Mott50. Not only do they still sell the Mini Mila (pictured on Luna) and the Kelly (pictured on Chrissy) styles, but they also have a large selection of equally adorable styles for mom and for baby. For instance, the zebra-print, elephant-print and emoji-print swimsuits are kid favorites, while mom may opt for the stylish and practical Mila style: A longsleeved one piece in striking magenta or simple white coloring, with a sexy, bellybutton-length front zip. The fabrics are soft and comfortable, as well as quickdrying—perfect for the active mom who enjoys water sports and/or beach-related activities. And a huge, added bonus is that every single garment that the brand PHOTOS: MOTT50
makes is coated so that it is certified with 50 UPF sun protection.

GOOD MAMA FOR THE SOON-TO-BE MAMAS During her pregnancy, Khloé Kardashian launched a maternity collection with the clothing company she co-founded, Good American After sisters Kylie and Kim welcomed new additions to their growing families, Khloé Kardashian was the last of the Kardashian/Jenner clan to have a baby... at least for now. So we’re all eyes on Khloé, who recently gave birth to baby girl True Thompson. During her pregnancy, the youngest Kardashian didn’t sacrifice her style for comfort. With the clothing company she co-founded, Good American, Khloé launched a line of Good American maternity clothes, called Good Mama, so she could have both. The collection features two different, flattering styles. The Honeymoon— named for the first stage of pregnancy, where some women don’t necessarily show their growing bumps—touts two elastic panels on either side of the jean for comfort and to create a flattering shape. The elastic panels are also nonrestrictive, so that moms-to-be are not left with annoying marks on their hips and sides. This fit is available in mid and low-rise styles. The Home Stretch style, on the other hand, is for mamas that are about to pop! Per the brand, it “offers an ultra-soft belly cocoon with the ultimate recovery for full and cozy coverage near the end of a pregPHOTOS: GOOD AMERICAN
nancy.” Both are available in sizes 00-24 for soon-to-be moms of all shapes and sizes. Khloé was, of course, photographed wearing the styles. But even in the later stages of her pregnancy, she said she was still a fan of the Honeymoon fit. She was also kind enough to have gifted the jeans to some of her celebrity friends who are expecting, such as Eva Longoria.

HABITAT THE BUZZ: José Mendín, co-founder of the acclaimed Pubbelly restaurant group and recent founder of the new Food Comma Hospitality Group, has debuted Miami’s newest gem at the stunning 1 Hotel—Habitat. The impeccably executed concept presents innovative Spanish food with an Old World elegance meeting New World vitality that incorporates fresh, local ingredients. Maintaining the ethos of the 1 Hotel, the restaurant evokes natural beauty by bringing the outside world inside the restaurant and incorporating the elements—fire, earth, air and water—into the bold menu.

WHAT’S ON THE MENU: The menu is divided into five categories: Raw, Cooked, Wood Fire Grill, Charcuterie and Live Greens where diners can find a multitude of creative options. The menu highlights classic dishes from the Croquetas de Jamon Ibérico 5 Jotas to vegan and vegetarian options like the Heirloom Beet Tartare, to the savory and raw Wagyu Milanesa Cruda seasoned with black soy, pickled romaine and freshly picked tomatoes. And of course, the desserts from pastry chef Patricia Larrea are equal stars of the show. The menu boasts decadent dishes that are anything but ordinary, like the “Ningyo Yaki”—a sweet and flaky apple pie; Bread Pudding created with sweet potato “pie” custard, caramelized miso, chai tea ice cream and black sesame, as well as the classic Bread and Chocolate with dark chocolate All photos courtesy of respective restaurants
and virgin olive oil. DRINK UP: As with the beautiful dishes, each cocktail is crafted to perfection that is both pretty to look at and delicious to taste.

and executive chef José Mendín: Why did you choose to partner with 1 Hotel for this concept? They were interested in us hosting a restaurant there, and it’s definitely a lot different than what I’ve done in Miami with Pubbelly and my other restaurants. For me, it’s about investing a lot of our business in Miami Beach—I’m a big believer in making Miami better and not giving up. Restaurants open and close, chefs come and go— but I’ve been here for 20 years, and I feel I have something to bring to the city. For me to come here to a new demographic and clientele allows me to bring a new experience. The management has the same ideas

and values as me, and it felt good. What were you looking for to highlight when you created the menu? “Rawbata” was the concept—half raw bar, half robata. We considered making that the name, but chose Habitat instead—we wanted to blend the beach into the robata by showcasing fresh fish and a diverse range of dishes. We are making it a Miami experience. There’s Spanish influence, as well. I also wanted to make it a fun place that is not too stuffy, so you can come relax and hang out with your friends in the heart of Miami Beach. How did you develop the concept of Mendín and Friends? It’s about friendship and bringing other chefs into my kitchen. We learn from each other and share with each other and create a relationship that lasts forever. It started very local with chefs from here, then it moved to a national level, and now we’re doing it on an international level. For me, it’s very important to show chefs the city so they can see what Miami is all about.

Best Private Jet Service: JetSmarter Best Museum/Exhibit: Museum of Ice Cream Describe your city in three words: Crazy, fun and unique. Favorite historic/legendary place to see or explore: Little Havana Calle Ocho All-around favorite spot in Miami: Wynwood Best Aspect of Miami: Miami is really a melting pot of culture. People come to this city from all over the world and call it home, and that’s a beautiful thing. I could live anywhere in the world, and we choose Miami.

HautePARTNERS The weekend was kicked off by an intimate, exclusive dinner Thursday evening in the Santa Rita polo stables and only sponsors, billionaires, and family were allowed to attend. As guests’ cars were valeted, they were greeted by a mariachi band and then led down a candle lit path where model waiters were awaiting them with a glass of Gracida Gran Reserva. Hanging vineyard lighting streamed the immaculate long table setting and old photos of Carlos hung on the stable doors. Artist Michael Shellis did a live painting of Carlos Gracida playing polo. The dinner was used as a way to commemorate Carlos Gracida Sr. and to launch the charity honoring him, The Gracida
Legacy
Foundation.
Nick Valenta, the Gracida boys’ business partner gave a speech highlighting the need for the charity and the cause: enriching lives of community youth through the love of horsemanship by providing them with role models that will teach and instill

The invitational continued underneath a big white tent where an assortment of gourmet items were served, more Gracida wine was poured and a DJ on set tempted many to hit the dance floor. It was a weekend to remember, adding to the unforgettable Carlos Gracida and the memories he gave all who love and adored him. The Equine Salute will happen annually with the goal of bringing together everyone in the equine community and having a day to celebrate the greats that have touched a polo field, especially Carlos Gracida Sr.

27TH MONACO YACHT SHOW The most spectacular yacht show in the world Once again, I found myself at the Port Hercule touring over 125 mega yachts, amazed that The Monaco Yacht Show is indeed the Mecca of the yachting community. The show last year included the notable strong attendance of American and Russian clients and the largest and youngest fleet ever with 50 per cent of yachts less than two years old and an average length of 49m. As tens of thousands of visitors fought their way through four days of yachts on exhibit and marketing events, it’s important to pin down a certain type of clientele in this unique opportunity. Some 36,400 participants walked the electric-blue carpet with some invited via the organizer’s new Sapphire Experience

By night, the bright lights of Monaco formed a spectacular backdrop to over 150 private events. I hang out most of the nights at the Monaco Yacht Club for dinners and drinks with friends. But there was the annual gala party, where forward-thinking Heesen’s Home, Oceanco’s showstopper Jubilee and Italian masterpiece Seven Sins by San Lorenzo, swept up the awards. Lurssen hosted their party this time at the Monaco Yacht Club instead of one of their mega yachts. It’s not the same ambiance compared to the past Lurssen parties I attended on-board Solandge and Quattroelle. My “trophy yacht” is Lurssen’s Areti. Dubbed “a yachtsman’s yacht,” the 85-meter Areti was custom-designed and built for a Russian client with its layout oriented towards intimate and cozy spaces for family and friends. A stunning feat

A little to the west is the business capital of Toronto, which is sophisticated, cosmopolitan and more globally inspired in its cuisine, with many chefs exploring styles and ingredients from all over the world. There’s a real synergy between what’s happening in the kitchens of New York and Toronto, and a lot of chefs train in New York and then return home to put their own spin on what they’ve learned. One of those chefs is Patrick Kriss of Aloette, who opened an impressive contemporary French restaurant and cocktail bar. A former chef of mine at Restaurant DANIEL, Patrick really shines at Al-

BY DEYVANSHI MASRANI INTERVIEW BY MARTIN GREEN
WATCHES & WONDERS We sit down Ms. Lupo to discuss the FHH and Watches & Wonders From its birth in 2005 until now, the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie’s (FHH) mission has been to “promote fine watchmaking worldwide, through four missions to inform, train, recognize and organize.” Its esteemed Chairwoman and Managing Director, Fabienne Lupo, sat down with us to discuss the FHH’s challenges, triumphs and what we can expect from the globally-renowned foundation in the coming years. The Fondation Haute Horlogerie’s main mission is to promote fine watchmaking throughout the world. What are the main challenges in accomplishing this? I would say the main challenges are the ones yet to come, as we develop our activity throughout the world. We are evolving in an environment that is constantly changing and we need to embrace these changes in order to meet the expectations of our 42 partner brands. Today, the FHH is mainly known in Europe and Asia thanks to our training programs. Moving forward, we need to develop our activities in the US and ensure we have a presence on a regular basis. Watches & Wonders Miami is a first step in this strategy. As Chairwoman and Managing Director of FHH, what does an averLet’s say my average day is always very busy and I don’t have enough
