F PHOTOGRAPHY BY BONNIE HOLLAND
ashion owes much to Frank Sinatra and his fun-loving pals, who were fixtures on the Las Vegas entertainment circuit in the 1950s and ’60s. Their sharpas-a-knife style—cuffed, fitted shirts; the perfect pocket square; a classic fedora—is as synonymous with Vegas as it is with the icons themselves. And a beautiful woman in an evening dress? The clothes may have received a modern update, but the lady would fit right in at a front table in the Copa Room. That sultry elegance—seen in golden evening light in the Encore restaurant Sinatra, in the grand corridor at Encore Spa, and here, nestled in a gold banquet at Surrender—is as timeless as the Chairman’s legacy itself.

WYNN EXCLUSIVES
CIRCLE OF FRIENDS FOR ITS EXCLUSIVE ITEMS AT THE NEW WYNN COLLECTION BOUTIQUE, JUDITH LEIBER COUTURE TAKES INSPIRATION FROM THE RESORT ITSELF. Exclusivity is key to the Wynn retail philosophy, and that is just part of why Judith Leiber Couture and Wynn have been in business together since day one. “We have had a very long relationship with Judith Leiber Couture,” says Wynn Senior Vice President of Retail Hedy Woodrow. “They have been tremendous partners for us.” Likewise, says Judith Leiber’s Creative Director, Jana Matheson, “Exclusivity has been at the core of Judith Leiber’s design philosophy since our inception in 1963. We have designed exclusives for many occasions, from leading ladies to first ladies.” The brand has created numerous exclusive items for Wynn over the years, taking inspiration from
crocodile rock
the resort itself, including Wynn’s signature carpet pattern and butterfly motif. “Since our business attracts collectors, the Judith Leiber team has been extremely supportive of providing our store with very unique one-of-a-kind items,” says Woodrow. Most recently, Matheson was inspired by the dazzling floral carousel in the Wynn atrium (created by designer Preston Bailey) to create a new novelty piece in honor of the launch of the Wynn Collection boutique. Hand-painted and hand-set by a single Italian artisan, each limited-edition clutch features a 19-inch chain, metallic napa leather lining, and top closure, and twinkles with 11,736 crystals in 16 colors.
A former exotics designer for Hermès, Lina Hamed founded the luxury handbag line Analeena in 2008. Carried by such notables as Sarah Jessica Parker, Olivia Palermo, and Carla Bruni, Analeena’s crocodile-skin bags are available exclusively at the Wynn Collection boutique in a new partnership. “I enjoy working with people who know what they want, and above all understand luxury and quality,” says Hamed. “I am very picky about which multibrand to be in, and Wynn was the one. ”

autumn leaves Inspired by the lush vineyards of Northern California’s Sonoma Valley, the Fall 2015 Jude Frances Sonoma Collection brings the look of delicate grape vines and leaves to fine jewelry. During a long weekend celebrating her 50th birthday at the Sonoma wineries, founder Jude Steele was stimulated by the serene beauty and clean lines of the leaves, and from that inspiration comes this collection, which includes pendants, rings, earrings, earring charms, bangles, and bracelets made from 18k yellow and white gold with sparkling diamonds. “We are so excited about the new Jude Frances Sonoma Collection and to be able to offer it exclusively to customers at Tiny Baubles at Wynn,” says Steele. “We worked tirelessly on this collection to really pick up the subtle nuances of the vineyard leaves.”
