COMING UP ROSES Our February fashion feature celebrates flowers—the perfect homage to Valentine’s Day. Page 136.

GARDEN GLORY I love gardens, don’t you? This month, Marie Penny reveals three historic gems that exemplify Palm Beach landscaping.

Page 172.

During the month of love, our thoughts turn to passion, though not exclusively the amorous kind. We love passion in all its forms, especially the kind that effects change and gives us a whole new way of looking at the world.

This month’s cover star, Judy Glickman Lauder, has brought that kind of passion to photography—her own as well as her collected images. As is evident in the exhibit “Presence: The Photography Collection of Judy Glickman Lauder,” on display at the Norton Museum of Art through March 10, Judy’s images, and the ones she’s drawn to, bear witness to important, culture-defining moments. They are more than beautiful compositions; they’re endeavors in advocacy and social consciousness. Get to know Judy and her art in “In Her Presence” (page 122) and make an effort to view the exhibit in person. I promise it will enrich you.

Keeping with the theme of advocacy, we feature the powerful images of Mac Stone in a photo essay titled “Eyes Wide Open.” Mac has been photographing in the Everglades for many years, and I’ve always admired his work, which we’ve featured in these pages in the past. But this photo collection, which was created exclusively for the top benefactors of The Everglades Foundation’s endowment campaign and won’t be released to the public, is the most moving I’ve seen yet.

Mac’s eye for wildlife and the expansive land it occupies is so sharp that every one of his images tells a story. The story he’s trying to convey, of course, is one of conservation. “The key is to rally everybody to say, ‘Look at this system. This is home,’” he says. Turn to page 128 to see these exclusive photos and marvel at the hidden treasures of our Everglades.

This month I also invite you to travel with me to the Arctic via my feature on the extraordinary ship Le Commandant Charcot. Over the summer, I had the privilege of traveling on this powerful icebreaker, unique among passenger ships, to the frozen wilderness of northeast Greenland, a region that is both untouched and in great peril. Witnessing the majesty of these icebound landscapes that are unknown to 99.9 percent of us due to their inaccessibility, it’s impossible not to feel heightened emotion and a sense of duty. Read about this deeply remote part of our planet in “To the Ends of the Earth” on page 146.

Here’s to passionate pursuits and all the places they’ll take you!

LILA PHOTO

YEAR 30 We met at work. I was part of the advertising department at Jordan Marsh Department Stores in Boston and Lauren was a merchant with the firm that ran the fine jewelry operations. For me, it was love at first sight.

For her, well, I was still very much a work in progress. On one of our first “business lunches,” she asked what I thought about running an ad in the Personals section of the weekly Boston Phoenix to meet people. Seeking to quash the competition, I replied, “In no way would it be a good idea to use advertising to find a date.”

That was 33 years ago. This month marks 30 years married, and we’re both looking forward to our next 30 together. That will put me at 87 and, hopefully by then, comfortable that I have vanquished the competition.

Not easy with her in the gym every morning at 5.

February is also a time to mark enduring partner relationships for Palm Beach Illustrated. If your calendar is not already brimming with events, let me help you out with some highlights from the pages of the Palm Beach Charity Register:

2/2 Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County Winter Ball 2/3 Maltz Jupiter Theatre Twentieth Anniversary Gala 2/7 Cancer Alliance of Help & Hope Shop the Day Away Luncheon 2/15 Palm Beach Heart Ball Centennial Celebration 2/15-20 The Palm Beach Show 2/16 Kravis Center Gala 2/17 Connections Education Center Hearts and Hands Play it Forward Gala 2/21 Center for Family Services of Palm Beach County Old Bags Luncheon 2/28 Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties Founders Luncheon We are honored to work with these amazing groups by supporting the arts and helping to improve outcomes for our fellow citizens. This magazine is present at each of these events as an exclusive sponsor. We value the long-term partnerships we have built with these organizations and look forward to supporting their work for years to come.

See you at the galas,

COURTESY OF THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH

FAT TUESDAY FETE

Catch Mister Trombone (above) at Mardi Gras in West Palm Beach.

The West Palm Beach Arts & Entertainment District and Downtown Development Authority (DDA) have teamed up with Festival Management Group— responsible for such annual celebrations as the South Florida Garlic Fest, which will mark its twenty-fifth year February 3-4, and the Wellington Bacon & Bourbon Fest, which will host its tenth iteration March 23-24—to bring New Orleans to West Palm Beach with the city’s first-ever Mardi Gras celebration.

“The celebration came about through a conversation about what events could enhance downtown,” says Teneka JamesFeaman, associate executive director of the DDA. “Downtown West Palm Beach is thriving not only because of the new development and unique businesses, but also because of the amazing arts and

entertainment happenings.”

The music, culture, and community spirit of Mardi Gras will come to life via beads, an artisan market, and performances by Palm Beach County locals Mister Trombone and guitarist Joey Gilmore as well as brass and junkanoo bands from Miami. Come hungry and chow down on traditional Cajun and Creole dishes like jambalaya, crawfish étouffée, beignets, and a variety of po’boys, brought to you by Purple Shrimp and Catering Concepts, also local.

“Our vision is to provide an exciting cultural event that people will look forward to attending every year,” JamesFeaman says. Join in the festivities February 17 from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Meyer Amphitheatre. (downtownwpb.com/ mardigras) —Skye Sherman

Stay and Play

COURTESY OF PGA NATIONAL RESORT

We’ve all done it: neglect the “touristy” things until friends and family visit, then wonder why we waited so long to take advantage of our local attractions. If that’s you, skip the hassle of hosting and book a staycation at PGA National Resort, which recently launched a slate of exclusive experiences for guests, including pickleball clinics with celebrity coaches, big-game sportfishing, luxury catamaran cruises, and even a beekeeping tour (did you know the resort’s hives house nearly 250,000 honey-

bees and their queens?).

Groups of up to 12 can book a 47-foot power catamaran for a sunset cruise, snorkeling, or sightseeing along the Intracoastal. If an adrenaline rush and the thrill of the chase is more your speed, Captain Bob can whisk you away in pursuit of dolphins, swordfish, sailfish, or marlin, depending on the season. This excursion takes place aboard the Lucky Dog, a 34-foot vessel custom built by Ocean Master Boats in Stuart. And if you book a cottage at PGA National and hook a fresh catch aboard the fishing charter, you can take the fillet with you and cook it in your en-suite kitchen.

Plus, there’s no better time to stay and play than right now: beginning February 26, the hotel will once again host the tournament formerly known as the Honda Classic, which is under the ownership of The PGA Tour and now called the Cognizant Classic. Stay like the players do with the resort’s Gold Golf Experience, inclusive of luxury accommodations with a private balcony or terrace, daily breakfast, and daily golf on your choice of championship course.

At PGA National Resort, hit the pickleball court, sail the seas, or spend an afternoon on the green.

Looking for something fresh to add to the roster for birthday parties, date nights, or just because? Lighthouse Candle & Scent Bar, recently opened by born-and-raised Jupiter resident Wendy Dicks, is a “sip and paint” for candle snobs and scent lovers.

Upon arrival, you’ll grab a clipboard and start sniffing, noting your preferences among the 100-plus jars of fragrance oils. There are kid-friendly smells with names that will make little ones giggle and more mature picks like orange blossom, patchouli, and rose. You can also go off-script and create your own scent; I made a Florida Fall menagerie with various spices, citrus, cilantro, and lime.

Next, you’ll choose a vessel from among 20 styles and sizes: select from

clear jars, mini candles, matte looks, minimalist, maximalist, and seasonal decor with one to four wicks. Those who prioritize sustainability can bring their own vessel (or return for refills).

After finding a fragrance combination or stand-alone scent you like, you’ll pour the oils into a beaker until you arrive at a smell that you love. Then, Dicks will pour hot soy wax into your vessel, you’ll add in your beaker of fragrance, and mix. After the candle dries long enough to solidify a bit, you can sprinkle the top with crystals, nontoxic glitter, or dried leaves and petals. You can take your creation home the same day, but you should wait 24 hours for it to fully set before lighting up. (lighthousecandlebar.com) —S.S.

Held at The Breakers, the event will raise funds to support four projects centered around education, conservation, and restoration at the eleventh-century Belvoir Castle in Grantham, England. Launched with the help of Palm Beachers, American Friends of Belvoir Castle intends to steward the buildings, landscapes, and art collections of the historic estate, which has been the ancestral home of the Dukes of Rutland—in an unbroken 36-generation line—for nearly one thousand years.

Expect to hear from Emma Manners, Duchess of Rutland, about becoming a duchess and what it takes to maintain and preserve one of the great homes of England. (americanfriends ofbelvoircastle.com) —S.S.

SAVE OUR SEAS THE PALM BEACH ZOO IS ON A MISSION TO PROTECT FLORIDA’S CORAL REEF TRACT

BY SKYE SHERMAN

COURTESY OF THE PALM BEACH ZOO & CONSERVATION SOCIETY

The Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society may be best known for the animals it tends to on property, but the organization’s ecological concerns extend beyond its premises to the open ocean. And after a recent gift from Tito’s Handmade Vodka to the tune of $55,000, the zoo’s efforts to explore our seas and provide data to preserve and protect Florida’s coral reefs can go deeper.

Under its Coral Reef Conservation Initiative, the zoo’s Science Dive Team is keeping tabs on a new and fast-spreading disease that puts Florida’s coral reef tract—the world’s third-largest barrier reef—at risk of losing half its stony coral species. The divers gather annual data about how the disease spreads and evolves over time, then team up with other scientists to determine effective ways to help the reefs recover.

While Tito’s has supported the zoo’s fun-

As part of its Coral Reef Conservation Initiative, the Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society is studying the spread of a novel disease that is greatly impacting stony coral across South Florida and the Keys.

draising events and community projects for years, the Coral Reef Conservation Initiative holds a special place in the heart of field sales director Andrea Eastaugh. “As a member of the South Florida community, I’ve seen firsthand the incredible impact that the Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society has had and understand how important the ocean is to all of us here in Florida,” says Eastaugh.

“The support from Tito’s has allowed us to expand our work to include a new partnership with Reef Renewal USA, a coral restoration organization in the Florida Keys,” says Mike Terrell, the zoo’s animal experience curator and coral conservation coordinator.

The dive team traveled to the Lower Keys last

summer to assist with the maintenance of Reef Renewal USA’s offshore coral nursery and to monitor corals that had been transferred from nursery to reef.

The team also participated in a nine-day research cruise in the Keys with Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium, during which time divers gathered data on the health of the reef from Key Biscayne to the Dry Tortugas and acquired improved imaging equipment to produce high-res images during coral surveys, enabling them to better communicate their research to the public.

As Terrell points out, it’s all part of the zoo’s end goal to save wild animals in wild places. “Healthy oceans provide the oxygen we breathe, and coral reefs specifically protect our shorelines from erosion and flooding,” he says. “We want a healthy ocean ecosystem that supports plentiful and diverse animal and plant populations.”

The next time you walk the beach or take the boat out to snorkel, consider how different the scene could look if we did nothing— or if we all committed to doing more. Visiting the zoo is a great way to learn about and aid in conservation efforts. But if you want to incorporate more wildlife-saving actions into your daily routine, Terrell advises switching to reusable water bottles, toilet paper made from recycled materials, and bird-friendly coffee, which is shade-grown under a multilayered tree canopy.

Q&A

Being LeAnn Rimes THE POWERHOUSE CHILD PRODIGY GETS PERSONAL ABOUT HER CHALLENGES AND TRIUMPHS

NORMAN SEEFF

BY JUDY ALEXANDRA DIEDWARDO

72

PBI: You’ve spent a lifetime onstage, having had your first big hit at age 13. How have you not only survived childhood stardom but thrived from it?

Rimes: I’m an incredibly resilient human being who has learned to roll with life and adapt. I’ve gotten good at that! I think creativity has saved me. Even in my darkest moments, I’m able to grow and learn and use the complexities and lessons of life for my creative process.

X

Growing up in the spotlight wasn’t easy for singer-songwriter LeAnn Rimes. She’s long dealt with anxiety, despite her massive talent and success. But her evolution across her decades-long career has provided healing and resolve—along with a new album. PBI recently caught up with Rimes, who will perform at the Kravis Center’s annual gala along with friends David Foster and Katharine McPhee February 16.

Tickets are available to purchase via the Kravis’ website. (kravis.org)

It sounds like you’ve come to peace with the anxiety that you’ve candidly described as a driver of your success.

I’ve come to understand that it is a part of the intricate design that makes me who I am. Just as a bird with a broken wing learns to fly differently, my anxiety has taught me to navigate life with a unique perspective, allowing it to be a driving force behind my determination and success.

Meditation has become a huge part of your life. Is that how you stay centered and maintain your creativity?

Yes! I couldn’t sit still [nor did I] want to be alone with

myself. And now I crave that “still” time every day. I am my harshest critic and have to sit with my thoughts, create peace within myself, and give myself the love I always longed for.

You’ve been touring your nineteenth studio album, God’s Work. What was the inspiration?

God’s Work is the exploration of my personal journey in reclaiming my humanity and spirituality. I like to say [that] this album breaks your heart and heals it, all at the same time. Performing these songs live has been incredibly emotional for me. Put on some headphones, close your eyes, and let this album pour into you like it poured out of me. That would be an incredible gift to me.

It’s beautiful to see you on fire with your music, happily married, and in a place of contentment.

Thank you! I think what you are witnessing is a woman who is the most authentic she’s ever been, and someone who is truly letting the light into her world. There’s a lot of joy in my life—and also challenges that not everyone sees.

I’ve learned to be able to hold both at the same time.

NEW&NOW WORTH IT

ALL THAT GLITTERS WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT ROCK

BE NO IT

In the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Marilyn Monroe famously chimed that “diamonds are a girl’s best friend.” The chorus punctuates otherwise foreboding lyrics warning of fading looks, plummeting stocks, short-lived affairs, and the general uncertainty of life as compared to the steadfast value of jewelry. Lorelei Lee herself could appreciate that while a kiss may be grand, knowledge is, in fact, a girl’s best friend. In addition to working with vendors you trust, there are a few important factors and authentications that can help you determine a stone’s value.

When in doubt, use context clues: jewelry should feel good to wear and look beautiful, well-proportioned, and well-constructed from all angles. Here, we share some expert insight into valuation.

DANIEL FORTUNE

BY KATHERINE VAN DELL AND SEBASTIAN CLARKE

Diamonds The four Cs of diamonds (carat weight, cut, color, and clarity) are well-known, but who decides the subtle difference between “very slightly included” and “very, very slightly included”? Prior to the 1940s, trade terms for diamond quality were often nuanced lingo such as “watery,” used to describe a near colorless diamond, or “Cape color,” in reference to the largely paleyellow diamonds from South Africa’s Cape of Good Hope region. When Robert M. Shipley founded the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) in 1931, he recognized the need for a system that could be utilized internationally to uphold trade integrity and buyer confidence. His son, Robert Shipley Jr., and successor, Richard T. Liddicoat, later expounded on RY TO

his four Cs with a full color and clarity scale, along with objective methods and instruments for grading diamonds. Today, the GIA is the international authority on diamond grading. While not always available, it is good practice to ask if a diamond has a GIA report as it can eliminate a lot of the guesswork.

Gemstones Colored stones (the most precious traditionally being rubies, sapphires, and emeralds) are valued for vibrancy and distinctiveness of color. However, even seemingly specific adjectives—such as the “velvety” or “sleepy” blue of rare Kashmir sapphires or “pigeon’s blood red” of prized Burma rubies—are often used to describe a subjective color. Additionally, gemstones have long been modified with a variety of treatment processes to improve color and clarity. In America, institutions like the American Gemological Laboratory (AGL) produce certifications detailing not just present treatment processes, or the preferable lack thereof, but the region from which a stone was mined. For comparison’s sake, the price per carat of a sapphire determined to have been mined in Ceylon (Sri Lanka) can be a fraction of one mined in Kashmir; situated high in the Himalayas, this small stretch of the Zanskar range was completely depleted by 1887, only five years after it was discovered. Any colored stone with specific regional attribution should come with the paperwork to back it up, like those certifications from the AGL or other international entities of equal report. «

Fall/Winter In-Season Produce

LIVING WITH IVEY

HOW EATING IN SEASON CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH THE ADEQUATE VITAMINS AND MINERALS TO THRIVE

BY IVEY LEIDY PHOTOGRAPHY BY KENT ANDERSON

PRODUCE AT ITS PEAK

As you peruse the produce section at your local market, you’ll notice that you can find pretty much anything you’re looking for. But you’ve probably never asked yourself how that fruit or vegetable got from the ground to the grocers.

That path isn’t quite as direct as you may think.

Consider an apple.

In the United States, apples are only harvested between late August and early November. That means if you’re eating an apple from the grocery store in the spring or summer, it was picked as many as 10 months earlier.

These apples are stored in low-oxygen refrigeration for months to keep them from ripening, thereby depleting their nutrients.

While it’s convenient to be able to purchase

whatever fruit or vegetable you want whenever you want, we thrive when eating seasonally from our direct environment.

For example, produce that’s ready for harvest in the fall and winter (think citrus and squash) is high in vitamins C and A to boost our immunity and energy levels as we enter the colder season, when we are more prone to colds and viruses. In the spring and summer, the in-season fruits and vegetables like cucumber and watermelon have a higher water content to keep us hydrated as temperatures rise. Spring and summer fruits and veggies are also higher in beta-carotene, which helps to protect against sun damage. Talk about letting food be thy medicine.

Apples Asparagus Eggplant Citrus Lettuce Beets Bell peppers Broccoli Brussels sprouts Butternut squash Carrots Cauliflower Kale Papaya Sweet potatoes Swiss chard

Year-Round in Florida Mushrooms

But the benefits don’t stop there. Because inseason produce is picked at its peak and doesn’t require weeks or months in transit or refrigeration, it is more nutrient-dense, more flavorful, and costs less. Read on to learn what’s in season when.

«

« JILLIAN M. MOUTON, Children’s Librarian Pick: Gut Reaction by Kirby Larson and Quinn Wyatt Pub Date: March 5 “I’m so happy to see stories about invisible illness and disability on the rise in young adult fiction. Gut Reaction promises to be a sweet, funny, and emotionally sincere exploration inspired by Quinn’s personal journey. The book shares how chronic illness and grief can change our lives—mixed with the giddy drama of a baking competition.”

LUCKAS ARIAS TORFS, Technology Librarian Pick: The Age of Magical Overthinking: Notes on Modern Irrationality by Amanda Montell Pub Date: April 9 “Montell’s newest book explores the role celebrities and social media have in shaping mindsets and trends and how that affects us in real life. I started reading some of her other works and I’m sold. She knows how to capture your attention and provide details without going over your head.”

« LISA HATHAWAY, Library Director Pick: The Maltese Iguana: A Novel by Tim Dorsey Pub Date: Paperback available in February “I must suggest a paperback version debut by Florida author Tim Dorsey, who recently passed away. His Florida fiction is so fun, and he was such a strong supporter of libraries, including visiting the Mandel Public Library several times.

The Maltese Iguana … pays tribute to a talented author who could tell a twisted tale that always left you smiling and wanting more.”

«

« BETHANY HANKIN, Adult Services Librarian Pick: One of Us Knows by Alyssa Cole Pub Date: April 16 “New York Times best-selling romance author Alyssa Cole’s 2020 debut thriller, When No One is Watching, was a solid five-star read for me. I’m now counting down to her follow-up, One of Us Knows, an intense thriller that is getting rave reviews. I’m ready to immerse myself in the world of Kenetria, the new caretaker of a historic estate who finds herself trapped on an island with a murderer—and the ghosts of her past.”

Since it is based off a story first published in The New York Times Metropolitan Diary ‘Best of the Year,’ I’m excited to see how it will translate into a picture book.”

KAYLIN WRIGHT, Associate Teen Librarian Pick: A Darker Mischief by Derek Milman Pub Date: July 2 “I’m so eager to hear what our teens think about Cal, a queer teen from Mississippi who has been accepted into a prestigious boarding school. There, he finds himself swept into a whole new world filled with luxury, prestige, and a secret society for which he must dangerously decide how far he will go in the initiation process.”

BY STEPHANIE GATES

Amy Fine Collins is nestled into a rattan peacock chair atop the stage of the Richard and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County History Museum in West Palm Beach. Her nautical blue toile skirt, blouse, and jacket give an appropriate nod to the evening’s discussion on the “Endless Summer: Palm Beach Resort Wear” exhibition, currently on display at the museum through May 25. Aside from her Karl Lagerfeld moon and star earrings, Collins is dressed head to toe in Thom Browne, one of her current designer darlings. She has been the owner and arbiter of the coveted International Best-Dressed List (and inducted into its hall of fame) since 2003 and has also published a book by the same name. Collins has worked as a special correspondent for Vanity Fair since 1993 and was a style editor for both House & Garden and Harper’s Bazaar. She is currently the editor-at-large of Air Mail magazine. A muse for much of the art and fashion world, Collins recently sat down with PBI to discuss the latest in Palm Beach style.

The didactic labels are fascinating, and it’s great to see all these characters come back to life. It’s something new for Palm Beach. I was happily surprised to see [the work of] one of my former protégés, Christian Francis Roth, in the exhibition.

DRESSED TO IMPRESS CONTINUED X

How is Palm Beach style different from everywhere else?

Everything gets more colorful. Patterns get brighter and busier. Lilly Pulitzer had a lot to do with that. Perversely, I do like to wear black in Palm Beach, and I’ve been gently mocked for that.

How would you describe your personal style?

Eccentric glamour. I’d also say graphic and severe.

What role does fashion play in your daily life?

Often, instead of counting sheep to fall asleep, I think about what I’m going to wear the next day, and it somehow soothes me. So, it’s omnipresent. Clothing is a way of communicating.

Fashion is a universal language, and it’s more vital that we speak to each other than ever. It’s the opposite of a Tower of Babel.

Where do you shop when you come to Palm Beach?

I go to Saks and Alice + Olivia. Thom Browne is here, too.

I wear the clothes of people whom I know and can have an ongoing conversation with. It’s more meaningful that way.

What are some of your personal favorite style tips?

Get a full-length mirror and a good tailor.

What is one item in your closet you can’t live without?

A caftan.

What’s currently in your online shopping cart?

A Thom Browne raffia bag with leather handles.

I have one similar to it, but I keep buying the same thing over and over.

Tell us about your connection to Palm Beach.

My connection to Palm Beach is actually through my husband. His family has been here for a few generations; my daughter, Flora, and I are currently staying at my mother-in-law’s house. I’ve been coming since I was married, so for the last 35 years.

Much like fashion in general, the International Best-Dressed List gives insight into the cultural zeitgeist of the times. What does the upcoming list say about our society right now?

It will reflect the change in the way we think about gender. Before, we had men and women categories, but we are going to merge them into simply “best dressed people.” You will see one influencer, people associated with important movies, and people who are relevant in the news.

and integration into the Rosewood portfolio.

Nowadays, the 66-room hotel—the island’s largest—is a highly evolved version of its former self, with its pastel Caribbean cottages completely refurbished and complemented by a surfeit of new amenities. This includes the Beach House St. Barth and its Mediterranean-tinged restaurant, the vibeforward Bar Mélangé, and a beachfront infinity pool with incomparable views over the aquamarine waters of Grand Cul-de-Sac. Also part of the property enrichment is a Rosewood Explorers kids’ club and a complex housing Rosewood’s signature Sense spa, inclusive of a state-of-the-art gym, an ice room, an adults-only 98

pool, and multiple treatment rooms intersected by reflecting ponds.

Executing Le Guanahani’s reboot involved a deep dive into the wants and needs of today’s travelers and how best to serve them within the 18-acre private peninsula. To maintain a true sense of place and keep one foot in the past, the property preserved its colorful Caribbean aesthetic. All the while, it delicately enhanced many of the gingerbread cottages with private pools. Inside, interior designer Luis Pons delivers a residential feel, where high design meets approachable, often underscored by the likes of four-poster beds, brightly painted wooden headboards, and cabinetry fashioned after vintage luggage.

Amenities and programming consider all trends and mainstays of modern travel—intergenerational, romance, wellness, epicurean— and foster a space that at once caters to the full spectrum of luxury travelers. Personal highlights from a recent stay at Rosewood Le Guanahani St. Barth included a candlelit barefoot dinner on the beach, memorable deep tissue massages at Sense, and lazy afternoons on my sundeck, sipping Champagne, ogling sea turtles emerging from the lapping waves, and fantasizing about relocating permanently to this impossibly perfect island. Knowing (and loving) the property in its former incarnation and revisiting it now is testament to a resort

where the good life just keeps getting better. (rosewoodhotels.com)

Hôtel Barrière Le Carl Gustaf St. Barth Another reimagination more than a halfdecade in the making, Hôtel Barrière Le Carl Gustaf St. Barth transforms one of the island’s oldest hotels (circa 1970s) into an impressive study in au courant coastal excellence. Etched into a hillside above the port of Gustavia, the property promises sweeping views of the yacht-studded capital, plus easy access (even by foot) to the island’s best restaurants, shops, and nightlife.

Celebrated French interior designers Gilles & Boissier (of Baccarat Hotel New York fame) craft a splendid vision of sophisticated retro chic across Le Carl Gustaf’s 21 bungalows and suites. Expect French Colonial decor of rich dark woods and marble countered with pops of color aplenty, from headboards and cushions draped in a lime-green palm print

to canary-yellow throw pillows, sandals, and towels that scream vintage glam.

Each unit boasts a sizable terrace for intimate moments with those postcard-perfect panoramas.

While the hotel doesn’t nestle the beach per se, Shell Beach is a three-minute walk downhill. Here, you’ll find Le Carl Gustaf’s lounger-lined private stretch of fine white sand and sapphire sea plus its gourmet venue, Shellona, where dishes commingle flavors of the Caribbean and the Mediterranean in the best ways imaginable. Think: fish carpaccio St. Barth style (dressed in a passion fruit and green chili sauce) and a tomato-laced local red snapper served with grilled eggplant à la Spetses. DJ-led sessions, a high-energy atmosphere, and Shellona’s proximity to the port make it a daytime hot spot for not only hotel guests but also transient yachties and downtown residents.

Come evening, dine alfresco at the property’s hilltop restaurant, Beefbar, the latest outpost of the popular European concept, largely focused on

high-quality cuts of meat as a blank canvas for decadence. The braised Wagyu beef quesadillas (with Oaxaca cheese and black truffle) and the miso black beef from the robata grill are two favorites among hard-core carnivores. Vegans can delight in the likes of bao buns made with plant-based meats and a flavorful white beet carpaccio with tomato and strawberry dashi. (hotelsbarriere.com)

Cheval Blanc St. Barth A love match between Caribbean natural beauty and St. Tropez sensibility dazzles at Cheval Blanc St. Barth, which now comprises 61 dreamy rooms, suites, and villas as well as the sublime Cheval Blanc Spa and big-deal restaurants, La Cabane and La Case. Expanding its footprint from the original Maison of the esteemed Cheval Blanc collection, the property added 19 hillside suites and a five-bedroom residence, integrating the new inventory into a comprehensive revamp by acclaimed French interior designer Jacques Granges.

If you ask Jason Arbuckle to send you a postcard, he’d likely oblige.

The creative director and founder of J. Falkner Cards, a Palm Beach– based stationery and greeting card company, has lived on the island since 2010. In recent years, as his brand’s European footprint has increased, Arbuckle’s travels have taken him to London. From quiet days strolling markets to splashy evenings on the town, Arbuckle knows how to live like a Londoner.

His best advice? “Enjoy getting lost!

As London has grown up from villages over the centuries, few of the streets obey any kind of grid, but there’s a charm to happening upon small shops and little bars you might not have otherwise discovered.” (jfalkner.com) —Abigail Duffy

WASHINGTON, D.C. PROVES THE ULTIMATE MASH-UP OF AMERICA’S PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE

STAY Backed by two of today’s most illustrious names in modern design, Herzog & de Meuron and Rottet Studio, the 11-story Conrad Washington, D.C. is a visual feast for the senses, centrally located at the intersection of New York Avenue and Tenth Street Northwest. Upon entering the glassheavy construct, ascend to the third-floor lobby—a skylit atrium veiled in contoured assemblies of steel mesh suspended from 100 feet above—where an illuminated circular pendant dangles at its core. A labyrinth of curvaceous corridors and hallways leads to myriad cozy lounge nooks and the start of 360 minimalist suites and guest rooms (which, at a minimum, measure an ample 416 square feet). Upgrade to a Sakura Club–level room on the tenth floor to gain access to a refined club lounge with panoramic city views, daily breakfast and dinner presentations (each showcasing

a different cuisine, from Greek to Mexican), nightly cocktail hours and whiskey tastings, and a fully stocked snack fridge, freezer, and pantry to satisfy cravings at all hours. (conradwashingtondc.com)

BRICKELL

THIS MIAMI NEIGHBORHOOD PUTS A SOUTH FLORIDA SPIN ON BIG-CITY LIVING

BY MARY MURRAY

Miami is a metropolis all its own, but Brickell offers a taste of Manhattan that consummate city dwellers will find hard to ignore.

Nestled between Downtown and Key Biscayne, Brickell is famous for its top financial firms, high-rise condos, upscale shopping, hip new restaurants, bayfront views, and walkability. This is a neighborhood where high-energy Miami vibes give way to luxe livability, and few hotels capture that quite like Hotel AKA Brickell (stayaka.com).

Known for hotels that bring top-notch lifestyle amenities to destination neighborhoods stateside and globally, the AKA brand purchased this spot at the Brickell Arch in 2021 and embarked on a $16 million reimagination

of the 201-key property. Lauded architecture firm Gabellini Sheppard Associates stepped in to elevate the aesthetic and guest arrival experience. This included moving the lobby from the twenty-fifth floor to the ground level, enabling visitors to disembark at a porte cochere—enhanced with greenery and water features—and enter a tranquil space that sets the tone for their entire stay.

That twenty-fifth floor is now home to a central lounge as well as Adrift Mare (adriftmare.com/ miami), a new restaurant by Michelin-starred chef David Myers. Situated within an 11-story atrium topped with a custom

installation of more than 100 lanterns, Adrift Mare fuses cosmopolitan style with a captivating menu of Mediterranean delights. Everything from the grilled king prawns finished with Fresno chili and lobster oil to the shish kebabs with pickled vegetables is thoughtfully conceived and layered with flavors sure to ignite every corner of your palate. Even simple side dishes—such as the crispy eggplant fried in an activated charcoal batter—are deceptively complex.

Hotel AKA Brickell also boasts a spa, fitness center, and rooftop pool. When you’re ready to explore elsewhere, however, take advantage of the myriad eateries and hot spots within walking distance, or hop onto the Metromover to discover other Downtown pockets.

A short stroll away is Brickell City Centre (brickellcitycentre.com), a massive indooroutdoor complex with dozens of big-name stores and such headline-grabbing culinary outposts as The Henry and Casa Tua. Augment your retail therapy with a stop at Marabú (maraburestaurant.com). Here, Miami meets Cuba across a menu of modern classics like truffle yuca fries, pan-seared salmon with sour orange, and a divine rendition of ropa vieja.

Walking back to the AKA, you might cross paths with a food-delivery robot, a young couple on their way to school pickup, or a barrage of bankers skirting the sidewalk in single file. They’re all a part of the fabric of this community and what make it one of Miami’s most exciting enclaves. «

TRIDENT MISSILE MASERATI’S MID-ENGINE MC20 SUPERCAR OFFERS 202-MPH DRIVING NIRVANA

BY HOWARD WALKER

Y

ou won’t find this feature listed in any owner’s manual. It’s not highlighted in the glossy brochures. But the steering wheel start button on Maserati’s new MC20 supercar comes neatly hardwired to every single one of those teeny hairs on the back of your neck. Just press the big blue button, hear the MC20’s 621-hp twin-turbo V6 explode to life with all the ferocity of Krakatoa, and you’ll instantly feel those follicles stand to attention like those fuzzy-hatted guards outside Buckingham Palace.

Maserati calls its new V6 technical masterpiece Nettuno, which translates to Neptune in Italian. The mythical sea god’s trident happens to be Maserati’s iconic logo.

Yet, this remarkable new power plant is simply the icing on the triple-layer chocolate cake that is the sensational MC20. Unveiled in 2020, this mid-engine super coupe is the poster child for Maserati’s return to relevance. Together with Maserati’s new Grecale compact SUV, GranTurismo two-door coupe, and clear focus on electrification with the upcoming Folgore EV models, the MC20 showcases a much brighter future for the Trident brand, now part of the burgeoning Stellantis group.

Just look at the thing. It’s one of the most stunning exotics money can buy, right up there with pricier rivals like Lamborghini’s Huracán, Ferrari’s 296 GTB, and McLaren’s Artura. The beauty here is a swimsuit catalog of toned curves and taut muscles, without the typical supercar plethora of fighter-jet wings and aero add-ons.

But its exotic style goes deeper than looks.

The car is built around a state-of-the-art, singlepiece, super-stiff carbon-fiber chassis. Flying down the road, the whole car tips the scales at a fighting-fit 3,300 pounds. That helps account for the car’s rock-out-of-a-catapult performance.

Dial up the most aggressive Corsa drive setting, engage launch control, hit it, and the Mazzer will slingshot from standstill to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. It won’t quit until the speedo is showing 202 mph. The way this new V6 screams to its 7,500-rpm red line is like having the Three Tenors sitting in the passenger seat, hitting the high notes in “Nessun Dorma.”

Climb aboard through that high-lifting butterfly door, settle into the well-bolstered bucket seat, and place your hands on the lovely wheel of carbon fiber and Alcantara. Aah. If there’s a criticism here, it’s the lack of a sense of occasion. The

But the twin 10.3-inch digital displays (one a configurable instrument cluster, the other a touchscreen mounted low above the center console) do away with traditional buttons and knobs. Here, there’s little to distract you from the main business of hard driving.

And drive it does. The steering is laser precise, with perfect weighting and telegraphic feedback. It just adds to the car’s sensational feeling of lightness and agility. Turn into a tight corner and the combination of that awesome steering, huge chunks of rubber at each corner, and adaptive suspension makes the MC hammer around as if it’s running on invisible rails.

Perhaps the best part of the driving experience is just how easy it is to drive fast. The car almost shrinks around you, making it feel way less intimidating than some supercars. There’s excellent visibility, courtesy of big door mirrors and a camera-fed digital rearview mirror.

Driving this Italian thoroughbred is like drinking a triple espresso after a lifetime of decaf.

CLASS ACT CHRIS-CRAFT’S BRAND-NEW CATALINA 28 CENTER CONSOLE IS A MARRIAGE OF FAMILY FUN AND STYLE

BY HOWARD WALKER

Is there such a thing as the ultimate Florida boat? It’s a tough category considering the sheer volume of contenders worthy of this nautical Oscar. I still have sore feet and worn Sebagos from three days of pounding the docks at last year’s Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show in search of an answer.

One true standout is the latest offering from Sarasota-based Chris-Craft, the Catalina 28, which made its red-carpet debut at the show. This addition to the Catalina center console lineup slots neatly between Chris-Craft’s popular 24 and 30 models, and it checks an Amazon fulfillment center’s worth of boxes.

I recently spent a morning piloting this 28-footer around Sarasota Bay, close to Chris-Craft HQ, where the company has opened a 70,000-square-foot factory to build it. What’s the appeal? For me, 28 feet is just about the perfect size for day-boaters looking for a fun time out on the water with friends and family. Even at this size, the Catalina offers comfy seating for at least 11, a wellequipped cockpit galley, an enclosed head, and a generous 9-foot beam for stability and easy walking around.

Plus, for those who adhere to the ethos that life’s too short to own an ugly boat, this new Catalina is the Christie Brinkley of center consoles—stylish, classy, athletic, and essentially ageless. Yes, it keeps the signature Chris-Craft design cues, including a gor-

The Catalina 28 impresses with its signature ChrisCraft design elements and exceptional craftsmanship.

geous Carolina Flare bow, an elegant reverse transom, and wood trimmings. But it features a new wide-body hull for a smoother ride and sportier handling.

It also has the power. The standard engine setup is a pair of Mercury Verado 225 V8s.

But you’d be foolish not to step up to the twin 300-hp Verados with their easy-docking joy-

stick control. Like to go fast? With the purring 300s, the Catalina 28 can fly at an eye-watering 60 mph.

Stepping aboard is a breeze, courtesy of the starboard-side “dive” door. I’ve taken to calling it the “Labrador” door as it makes life so much easier for a four-legged Fido to enter the cockpit from the dock.

As with any good center console, there’s a sizable hardtop over the helm, though ChrisCraft refers to it as a pilothouse on account of the three-piece tempered glass windshield that gives plenty of protection from the elements. Perched at the helm and gliding across Sarasota Bay at 50 mph, there was hardly a whistle of wind.

And because being shaded from the sun is becoming more and more important to us Florida boaters, I give full marks to the 28’s power-deploying SureShade bimini top and Mediterranean-style canvas shade over the foredeck, which essentially provide complete coverage for the entire boat.

What hasn’t changed with this new Catalina

JOURNEYS 28 is Chris-Craft’s single-minded focus on craftsmanship. This, to me, is what really sets it apart. It’s dressed in diamond-quilted upholstery, shiny stainless fittings, and mile-deep paintwork available in a choice of 12 colors. The wooden steering wheel wouldn’t look out of place in a vintage Jaguar.

Out on the water, the Catalina is a true joy to drive, and much of this comes down to the Seakeeper Ride active trim tabs on the lower transom. Acting like flaps on a Gulfstream jet, they can reduce roll by 42 percent and quell fore-aft pitch by 53 percent. Punch the throttles from rest and instead of the bow pointing up at Mars, the Seakeepers keep the nose down, reducing the drama while increasing forward visibility. Spin the wheel to go hard into a turn, and the flaps decrease the lean dramatically. They’re a revelation and completely automatic.

Naturally, this level of Bentley-like quality and painstaking attention to detail doesn’t come cheap. A base 28 is priced at around $340,000. However, if you want the beefier engines, a Seakeeper gyro for no-roll stability at anchor, the SureShade bimini, and engines painted to match the hull, you’re looking at closer to $400,000. Think of it as a small price to pay for the perfect Florida boat. «

P

hotography has been a lifelong constant for Judy Glickman Lauder. She is the daughter of noted Pictorialist photographer Irving Bennett Ellis, and while growing up in California, she viewed the world through her father’s camera lens, often accompanying him on photographic field trips, spending time with him in the darkroom, and meeting his friends and colleagues, including Ansel Adams and Edward Weston.

It was all but inevitable that Judy would pick up a camera and follow in her father’s footsteps. Like her father before her, Judy received the Fellowship distinction of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain, the highest honor the organization bestows. Judy has been exhibiting her work extensively since the 1970s, and her photographs are represented in many private collections and public institutions including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, Los Angeles’ J. Paul Getty Museum, and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. Although she does work with color digital photography, her preference is to photograph on film and in black and white.

“My own work is very personal,” she says. “I work alone and keep it simple, working with film, natural and available light, and one assistant who helps me in the dark room.”

Despite her artistic pursuits, Judy never thought she would become a collector. However, early on, she would often go to galleries, museums, and auctions to look at what was being shown and soon picked up pieces that interested her, especially portraits and black-and-white images. Now her collection amounts to more than 700 works and resides at the Portland Museum of Art in Maine, where she lived with her late husband of 54 years, Albert Glickman.

Judy now resides part-time on Palm Beach with her husband, Leonard Lauder, who is the chairman emeritus of The Estée Lauder Companies, and their dog, Kodak.

Through March 10, visitors to the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach can get a glimpse into her practice and collection in the exhibition “Presence: The Photography Collection of Judy Glickman Lauder.”

“I love to exhibit my collection, and I am very excited that it is at the Norton,” Judy says.

The Portland Museum of Art organized the exhibition, which features approximately 110 photographs by more than 50 artists, including some of the twentieth century’s most influential and revered practitioners, such as Berenice Abbott, Diane Arbus, Richard Avedon, Imogen Cunningham, Susan Meiselas, and Gordon Parks. Judy’s photographs are also represented in the show.

When Anjuli Lebowitz, the Judy Glickman Lauder Associate Curator of Photography at the Portland Museum of Art, joined the museum, plans were already in place to develop an exhibition of the works in the Judy Glickman Lauder Collection. She began the process by meeting with Judy to talk about what drew her to certain pictures, identify the photos that Judy felt were most important, and fill out certain sections that spoke to her.

“What she told me was that she collected what she was drawn to,” Lebowitz says of Judy. “She picks pictures based on how

they make her feel. They have to make her feel something. I really wanted to bring that out in the exhibition. I told her that I hoped that, even though [viewers] may not remember that it was her collection, they would feel like they’d had a cup of coffee with her at the end and got to explore all the different emotions and experiences from the pictures.”

Lebowitz notes that the exhibition is divided into four sections, each evoking a sense of “presence” in its own way. One such group is “Specters of History,” which primarily comprises Judy’s images of former Nazi labor and extermination camps. Through the powerful themes of her photography, Judy is an advocate for human rights and social justice, and the Holocaust is a subject that she has immersed herself in. She has done photographic work in Eastern Europe, where the Holocaust still haunts the towns and villages of Poland, Lithuania, and Ukraine. “I give talks to schools about the importance of educating young people on the Holocaust, especially at this time,” she adds.

Judy tells of one of her major projects that took her to Denmark to create an exhibition dealing with the Danish rescue of the country’s Jewish citizens during World War II. She was able to interview and photograph many survivors, rescuers, and members of the resistance. Aperture published a number of these photographs in a 2018 book titled Beyond the Shadows: The Holocaust and the Danish Exception. These photographs were also the subject of two traveling exhibitions, “Holocaust: The Presence of the Past and Resistance” and “Rescue: Denmark’s Response to the Holocaust,” which have been shown at more than 200 institutions around the world.

“Judy is such a treasure,” says Lebowitz. “Her work is so powerful

and important given our current world environment. Her artistic call to remember, honor, and think about how our past lives in our present is absolutely vital.”

Beyond her photography, Judy’s conscience and integrity are reflected in her and Leonard’s involvement in humanitarian and philanthropic causes. Leonard is known for his deep commitment to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, for which he serves as honorary chair. He is also the co-chairman and co-founder of the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation, and he is involved with a variety of New York cultural institutions. Judy has a personal connection to many art and Jewish-related causes as well as the Michael J. Fox Foundation and mental health advocacy; as part of that advocacy, she is involved with hospitals mostly in Maine, including Spring Harbor Hospital. Both Leonard and Judy are founders of the Glickman Lauder Center of Excellence in Autism and Developmental Disorders in Portland, Maine. “Giving in every way— not just writing checks but helping someone do something—makes us very grateful and really happy,” she says.

When asked if she still collects, Judy replies: “Oh yes, I bid for something today.”

She has long followed contemporary photographers—citing Danny Lyons and Sally Mann as two favorites—and she continues to watch out for emerging artists. “What attracts me is subjective,” she says. “My exhibition is called ‘Presence,’ and I find presence in the works of these photographers. The photographs in my collection were mostly created in the twentieth century, and prices are high now. About two years ago, a small Man Ray black-and-white photograph went for $12 million.”

As for budding collectors without $12 million to spare, Judy suggests looking at the work of young photographers who might still be in art school. “There is so much that’s affordable,” she says. “There’s an exciting treasure trove out there; poke about and see what you can find. I look forward to seeing where photography is going.” «

umidity hangs above still, dark water, where razor-edged grass sways beneath a relentless sun and ancient cypress with knobby knees reach toward a star-filled night. An insect’s buzz precedes its bite and the watery landscape hides creatures that slither, swim, flutter, and— most worrisome of all—chomp.

This mysterious scene feels far removed from the developed regions of Palm Beach County, with its sandy beaches, luxurious homes, and inviting shops, restaurants,

and other spots for vacationers. And yet, the solid ground of these contemporary places is lapped by an ancient swamp that has been forced to retreat for more than a hundred years.

It wasn’t malicious intent that diminished the footprint of Florida’s wetlands, says Mac Stone, a natural history photojournalist who counts publications such as National Geographic among his credits. Born in Gainesville and currently a South Carolina resident, Stone first discovered the Everglades on a family paddling trip as a teenager. He re-

turned 10 years later, working as a field biologist for the National Audubon Society.

Stone travels the United States and the globe covering conservation issues, particularly those regarding wetlands and swamps. He’s been photographing the Everglades for more than 10 years, creating images of unexpected importance. “Conventional wisdom was that wetlands were bad, or at least useless,” he says. “Now we are trying to undo that.”

By “we” Stone means the scientists, educators, and advocates who are striving to restore some of the natural flow of these living and

life-giving waters, a charge for the last 30 years of The Everglades Foundation. This nonprofit organization is planning to complete its $75 million endowment campaign, ForEverglades, by the end of 2024; it has already raised $60 million. The goal of the campaign is to ensure the future financial stability of the foundation, which is currently involved in 68 restoration projects including the building of the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA) Reservoir south of Lake Okeechobee. Upon completion, the EAA Reservoir and its stormwater treatment area will be larger than the island

of Manhattan at a combined 17,000 acres. In tandem with other restoration projects, the EAA Reservoir and the stormwater treatment area will reduce Lake Okeechobee’s polluted discharges into east and west coast estuaries by 55 percent and send 120 billion gallons of clean freshwater south every year.

For his part, Stone has provided 130 images to be published in a limited-edition book, titled ForEverglades, that will be presented to top benefactors of the campaign.

experts with National Geographic and other publications, Stone says his goal was to “take people to places they’ve never been.”

That sentiment is key to successful conservation efforts, notes Marshall Field V, chairman of the endowment campaign and immediate past chairman of The Everglades Foundation’s board of directors. “Picturing the earth without certain places in it is grim,” he says. “If [our unique places] go away, the planet may go away with it.”

Stone agreed to share select images from his 132

book with readers of Palm Beach Illustrated as an introduction of sorts to a part of their home that they haven’t met yet—or may never meet.

“You can come to love a place or an ecosystem or wildlife in many different ways,” Stone says. “I think the key is to rally everybody to say, ‘Look at this system. This is home.’”

In fact, the Everglades and its surrounding areas play an important role in South Florida.

Offering space for recreation such as fishing, hiking, biking, snorkeling, and boating, the Everglades is also the source of drinking

water for more than 8 million Floridians. It is home to flora and fauna found nowhere else on the planet.

“We think of ourselves as being connected to an ecosystem rather than part of it,” Stone says. He goes on to explain that conservation isn’t about stopping development but rather working with it to protect the elements that in turn make the area a desirable and sustainable place to live, as well as an economic boon to a state that heavily relies on and promotes tourism tied to its natural resources.

Shooting with a drone in Blue Cypress Lake, Stone caught this image of a SpaceX rocket launch.

Stone says his photographic endeavors have contributed to the scientific understanding of this area; as an example, he cites several summer months spent trying to photograph a giant sphinx moth, believed to be the sole pollinator of the endangered ghost orchid. Stone perched his camera 50 feet up a cypress tree to capture the precise moment of pollination. What did he find?

The moth appeared to be “robbing the nectar instead of providing any benefit to the flower,” Stone notes, clarifying that this hypothesis is still in need of more rigorous testing and evidence.

“This information was new to science, and, to me, the perfect embodiment of how the camera has become the vehicle [of discovery].”

His process, in most cases, is anything but a quick snapshot. In fact, Stone often invests weeks or more orchestrating the tools to create an image and then sitting in wait for the right opportunity. Sometimes that means standing waist- or neck-deep in swamp waters, operating a drone or angling a flashlight to illuminate a cypress tree against a night sky—only to be photobombed by a SpaceX rocket, in what seems to be the perfect juxtaposition of Mother Nature and human nature.

“All of a sudden on the horizon, this fireball is erupting, and it looks like a meteor,” Stone recalls. “My assistant was so freaked out—he thought the world was ending. But I’m just shooting through the entire thing asking myself, ‘God, what is this?’”

“Mac uses his photographs to connect people,” says Jodi Mailander Farrell, vice president of development for The Everglades Foundation. “It’s hard to appreciate the Everglades if you’ve never been there, and you don’t support what you don’t know. His photos help us create the connection.”

As for Stone, he says he wants people to look at his work and ask questions: What does this look like? What does this feel like?

“All people need is a handshake or an introduction to the Everglades,” he says. “It gives them permission to fall in love with it too.” « 134 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

une 14, 3 a.m. It’s a summer night but you wouldn’t know it sitting on this balcony, shivering inside a parka and trying to make sense of the vast frozen desert that stretches toward an indeterminate horizon. The Arctic fog has whited out the sun, which normally would be high and bright at this hour, and what remains is a strange light—Uranian, volatile, opaque. If Crayola made a crayon this color, its name would be Cold.

It seems like madness to sit out here, needled by a bitter chill, when two inches of down await on the other side of the sliding glass door. But there’s something bewitching about this icy wilderness off Greenland’s northeast coast, a part of our planet so remote that the only trace of human habitation is hundreds of miles away. To lay eyes on a place that so few have seen is a privilege I hesitate to squander by sleeping.

Near 74 degrees North, the pack ice forms a single white mass crisscrossed by pressure ridges formed when glacial ice floes collide. Everywhere there are hummocks, or ice mounds, that look like giant heaps of

shaving cream—perfect camouflage for polar bears on the hunt. I scan the terrain through binoculars, but I don’t know how to read the ice, especially in fog. The icescape is so unknowable that it might as well be on another planet.

I listen for movement—a crack in the ice, the beating of a wing—but there is nothing. This far above the Arctic Circle, the stillness is profound. It presses against you, makes you uncomfortable. The tendency is to want to do something—to look for a polar bear, say—but you quickly learn that you have no authority here. Nature makes the rules.

You trust. And when you do, this world opens up to you.

Three years ago, passenger travel to these icebound regions wasn’t even possible. The ice is too thick and complex to penetrate without a formidable icebreaking hull. Enter Le Commandant Charcot, an expedition ship launched in 2021 by French cruise company Ponant for travel deep into the polar regions, including to the geographical North Pole. Named after French explorer Jean-Baptiste Charcot, Ponant’s newest ship has a Polar Class 2 (PC2) ice rating, which means it is capable of routinely navigating through 10-foot-deep sea ice, though it packs PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2024

power far beyond that. (In sea trials it pushed through a nearly 50-foot-deep ice ridge in Greenland.) To put it into perspective, the only other PC2 vessels out there are used for research or military operations.

Because it sails into some of the most sensitive environments on the planet, Charcot was built as the first luxury icebreaker ship running on a mix of battery and liquefied natural gas (LNG) to minimize emissions and environmental impact. Electricity produced by the LNG-powered engines is stored in batteries whose use reduces fuel consumption and allows the ship to run, for almost an hour at a time, so quietly that even the bears don’t hear it coming.

The ship is the epitome of sustainability at sea. Ponant’s protocols for Charcot go beyond what is necessary, to include 100 percent elimination of singleuse plastic on board, 60 percent recycling rate (compared to an industry

standard of 20 percent), and chemical-free wastewater treatment to allow for clean discharges. The idea is to balance luxury travel with eco-responsibility, so you can feel good that your meal at the ship’s Alain Ducasse restaurant came from a short supply chain (one night we had musk ox meat sourced from Inuit hunters at the village of Ittoqqortoormiit), or that the water in your refillable bottle was produced through reverse osmosis of seawater and microfiltration.

Passing Scoresby Sound (below), Charcot lands on fast ice outside the Inuit village of Ittoqqortoormiit on its first stop en route to Greenland’s northeast coast. Here, dog sleds are the preferred mode of transportation.

of these fragile environments,” says Navin Sawhney, Ponant’s CEO Americas. “Combine [this] with luxurious style and the ever-present science facilitated onboard to carry out research and conservation, and there isn’t another ship like it in the whole world.”

Le Commandant Charcot is unique in that it’s a platform for the scientific community. Researchers specializing in the polar regions are granted access to the onboard lab and transportation to the field to facilitate their studies, and the resident science officer conducts ongoing testing for ice quality and the effects of climate change, for which the Arctic is ground zero. According to the journal Nature, climate models show the Arctic is warming at least twice as fast as the rest of the planet.

And the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s most recent Arctic Report Card asserts that Summer 2023 was the Arctic’s warmest on record and sea ice continues to decline.

“All of humanity is sensitive to how the climate is changing, and its impact is powerfully felt in the Arctic,” says Sawhney. “We can’t wait to conduct these experiments [until] the ice has diminished or disappeared altogether. [Research] is not a choice; it’s a mandate.”

The net-net of the conversation: the time is now to bear witness to these wild places.

y morning the fog has lifted and the ship is pursuing an ideal spot for an ice landing. Under the pressure of Charcot’s massive hull, blocks of ice the size of an SUV break and flip, revealing their aquamarine undersides.

The sea beneath is steel gray and, I imagine, spectacularly frigid. Still, a couple dozen passengers have signed up for the polar plunge and the bragging rights that come with a baptism into some of the coldest water on Earth.

The rest of us are content to explore on dry land. When Charcot “docks,” it’s a surreal sight. The ship pushes into a slab of fast ice (solid PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2024

The menu of activities includes polar hiking into snow-covered mountains, cross-country skiing, or snowshoeing for a more intimate connection to the ice. When conditions are clear and we find a polynya (open water between ice floes), there is also kayaking and zodiac cruising among icebergs, in seal and walrus territory.

Today it’s snowshoes. We go out as a small group accompanied by a naturalist who’s also a gunner, because you never know. To keep us safe, there are lookouts from the ship and along a perimeter manned by other naturalists trained in reading the nuances of ice. So we trudge on through a pristine ice field, aiming for an iceberg that could be 100 feet or a mile away. On the ice, you lose any sense of distance. And time.

For an hour, or so it seems, we walk to a soundtrack of snow crunching beneath snowshoes and a chorus of labored breathing, transfixed by coins of light shimmering on the whiteness or by spots of melting ice like blue thumbprints.

By no means is this a leisurely sailing. “The intent is to engage you in every possible way,” says Sawhney. “Through native encounters, understanding the Inuits’ lifestyle or how they study and greet ice, scientific research, and wildlife and natural history encounters, you get trans-

formed. [The Arctic] becomes a part of you.”

Out here, wildlife encounters are indelible. As the flagship species of the Arctic, the polar bear creates a powerful impression on those lucky enough to see it. This most charismatic of bears is often objectified for its cuteness, but in reality, the massive carnivore is a lonesome and vicious predator forever prowling the icy wilds in search of food.

Which is why, when the naturalist’s radio crackles with the news of a sighting, we double-time it back to the ship. From the safety of the promenade deck, we wait. The juvenile male approaches, stopping in front of the starboard side. He sniffs some now-faded tracks and makes his way to the edge of the ice. He studies the water, slides in with barely

a splash. It’s going to be some seal’s unlucky day.

Before I set off on this journey, several people asked me “Why the Arctic?”, implying that there’s nothing there. But there is. At least a dozen polar bear encounters, a closeup with a walrus on the water, the gilded light of the midnight sun, citizen science, and ice fishing with Inuits are transformative experiences. Most important is the ice. To witness the living ice as it shifts, splinters, and breathes, and see firsthand how many species it supports, is to understand its importance to the health of our planet. If, according to the World Wildlife Fund, the Arctic could be icefree by 2040, one day I will describe the frozen North to my future grandchildren’s wide-eyed wonder. It’s bragging rights I never care to have. « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2024

If chef Fabio Trabocchi knows one thing to be true, it’s that happiness is a bowl of pasta. Such is the ethos at Fiolina Pasta House, his new chic yet family-friendly eatery in Midtown Boca Raton’s Restaurant Row. A native of Le Marche on Italy’s Adriatic Coast, Trabocchi is best known for Fiola, his Michelin-starred restaurant in Washington, D.C. Fiolina—which translates to “little sweetheart” in Trabocchi’s native dialect—is a spiritual successor to his more casual Sfoglina Pasta House concept, also in the D.C. area. Diners can expect a sultry space dotted with an exhibitionstyle kitchen and prep zones, including a pasta room where artisans whip up handcrafted spaghetti, linguine, gnocchi, and more. While the menu features a curated selection of insalate, antipasti, and shareable entrées, pasta is the true star of the Fiolina show. This section is divided into different regions and includes gems such as Bologna’s tortelloni EmiliaRomagna, with prosciutto, Parmigiano, and rosemary cream, and Le Marche’s ravioli San Leo, with goat cheese, herbs, and lemon zest.

Food for the SOUL

CHEF KAYLA CASALE WILL SHOWCASE HER CULINARY HERITAGE AND EXPERIENCE AT HER NEW RESTAURANT IN JUPITER

BY MARY MURRAY

PBI: What made you want to pursue cooking professionally?

Casale: I have these memories of preparing spaghetti and meatballs and homemade sausages, pickling and jarring peppers, green tomatoes.

I was so in awe around food, and I saw how it brought my family together. I took holidays as an opportunity to make a new plan and course out everything with my mom. Every year, it got more intricate, and we pushed ourselves to learn something new. I fell in love with it.

What has been one of your most influential professional experiences thus far?

My first job where I was like, “Wow, this is amazing,” was at Le Cirque. I had been hopping around kitchens in Las Vegas for a while and I wanted to push myself to the next level. That was an intense kitchen. It was in the Bellagio, and we did like 300 covers a night; there were only four line cooks and a plating chef at the pass. That was where I learned how to make risotto, which is now one of my signature dishes.

What did you take away from your time at the French Laundry?

I imagine working at the French Laundry is like training for a special ops SEAL team. The expectation was to be at least 1 percent better than you were yesterday—at least. It was about continual improvement. It was training me that no detail is insignificant. We learned that excellence in kitchen service and hospitality isn’t just

Kayla Casale is ready to leave her culinary mark on Palm Beach County. An alum of Le Cirque and Thomas Keller’s French Laundry, Casale will serve as executive chef at Ara, a new restaurant slated to open early this year in Jupiter. Working with restaurateur Steven Fondu, Casale has developed a menu that reflects her passion for cooking, a love that she traces back to her childhood in an Italian American household. PBI recently caught up with her to discuss her background and what to expect at Ara. (arajupiter.com) acting—it’s in the habits and the ritual and the repetition. It’s about being consistent, and I’ve carried that everywhere I go.

How would you describe your overall approach to the food you’ll be creating at Ara? We are going to be focusing on Southern Mediterranean cuisine. You’ll see Italian and some Spanish. Influences will be coming from Turkey and Greece, and we’ll be integrating our French techniques. [For example,] I have a braised lamb shank with a handkerchief pasta, which is really just one big, long lasagna noodle. You’ll have your whole braised leg of lamb with tzatziki sauce and then your pasta with lamb jus.

What are some of your culinary signatures?

I love to do like a warm risotto—super rich and buttery and decadent—and then put like a cold tartare on top and like a puree too. I like to put many components on a dish and make sure there’s something acidic, creamy, crunchy, bitter, sweet, even hot and cold.

INHOUSE CREATIVE

PERSONAL PIZZA

The longer the pizza has to ferment the better the flavor. Instead of commercial yeast, we use a sourdough starter to naturally leaven our dough and allow it to slowly cold ferment in the walk-in, building lots of flavor.

«

Less is more with the toppings. If you are anything like us, you spend days developing a flavorful dough—make that the star of the show. Don’t weigh it down with too many toppings.

«

For maximum oven spring (puff), make sure the oven is ripping hot. The hotter the oven, the more spring you will get in the crust.

« «

For the best puffy, airy crust, allow the dough to come to room temperature and also be very careful when stretching not to flatten the rim (or crust) of the pizza.

Celebrate National Pizza Day at home or with a specialty pie at Grato.

SALT of the Earth Given his background as a professional chef, Jonathan Richards understands the importance of salt. While on a sabbatical from restaurants, the Florida native had an aha moment after watching a documentary on Japanese salt-making techniques and smoking a brisket the following weekend: he would create a locally sourced finishing salt derived from the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

“From a chef’s perspective, everything starts with good ingredients,” says

Richards, who founded Palm Beach Salt Co. in May 2022.

“You need good water to make good salt.”

Richards tested eight locations across Palm Beach County looking for the ideal water, finally landing on a spot less than a mile from the Gulf Stream and with an offshore coral reef that helps to prefilter the water. Armed with buckets, Richards hand-harvests the water during the hour before peak high tide, when there is the greatest influx of fresh water, he explains.

Then, he embarks on a 400-hour natural process to turn that raw ingredient—water—into sea salt. Everything is done by hand and is free of chemicals, dyes, and anti-caking agents. Richards describes the taste of the final product as bright, briny, and oceanic. “My salt has a very round mouthfeel,” he notes. “You get a lot of different activations on your palate … a little bit of sour, sweet, bitter, but it always finishes very clean.”

Palm Beach Salt Co.’s bestsellers are the original flake salt, garlic salt, and lemon salt. Richards describes all the salts as finishing salts, though they can be used in a variety of applications. His favorite use? As the final seasoning for local fish. “You’re taking the fish out of the ocean and putting the ocean right back on the fish,” he says. “As a chef, that’s really full circle for me and the story I like to tell.” (palmbeachsaltcompany.com) —M.M.

Raspberry Revelry

O

L EL VI CO A C FRANCES

THE SHORTEST MONTH OF THE YEAR OFFERS MANY REASONS TO CHEERS

BY JULES ARON

In the spirit of love and kindness, February’s cocktail spotlights the sweet raspberry. With strong ties to mythology and history, red berries are thought to symbolize life and the energy of blood. Raspberries, in particular, have long represented kindness and softness through their delicate drupelets, juicy pulp, and crimson color.

Ancient Romans and Greeks enjoyed raspberries, and the fourth-century Roman agriculturist Palladius regarded them as having one of the highest mineral and antioxidant densities of any fresh fruit. Native peoples of the Americas recognized raspberry’s powerful medicinal and protective properties as well and utilized the leaves in natural medicines and teas, especially surrounding fertility and women’s health. In astrology, raspberries are considered a feminine plant, making it the perfect ingredient for an elixir of love.

The Crimson Crush is a tangy bevvy loaded with fresh citrus, raspberries, tequila, and a splash of a bitter aperitif. This take on a traditional sour will allow you to express your love for margaritas too, just in time for National Margarita Day February 22.

X Crimson Crush Ingredients 5-7 raspberries, plus more for garnish 1/ 2 oz. fresh-squeezed lime juice 1/ 2 oz. fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice 1/ 2 oz. agave syrup 2 oz. blanco tequila 1/ 2 oz. Campari or Aperol

FROM CIT Y TO OCEAN, THE FINE ART OF PALM BEACH LIVING

DESIGN

ALL IN GOOD FUN Designer Erin Cantu of Erin A. Cantu Interiors envisioned this space in a young family’s new Boca Raton home to be a fun and relaxing destination for all ages. “Our main goal was to create a clubroom atmosphere that could be multiuse for entertaining,” she says.

“We were able to achieve this by breaking the room into three areas that can be used separately or all at once.”

The main area features a custom bar made of oak and brass. Nearby, an oversize leather sofa offers a spot for lounging and faces a viewing

wall outfitted with three screens. Finally, a game table is the perfect place for puzzles or family board game tournaments.

For the overall aesthetic, Cantu drew inspiration from vintage hues and interiors, incorporating playful materials to keep the space light yet durable. A custom neon light above the bar reads “It was all a dream,” a lyric that signifies the family’s love of hip-hop and the mantra for their dream home.

“The vibe is a mix of vintage and new, with warm textural finishes and custom features like the bar space,” Cantu explains. “We wanted this room to feel warm and inviting but also be easy to live in. Grass cloth on the walls, camel leather on the sofa, [and the] brass and white oak wood tones all play into the cozy palette.” Wellington (erinacantu.com) —Liza Grant Smith

HOME INSPIRED LIVING

OLD-SCHOOL APPROACH For those who love the idea of fresh florals for fragrance but desire something more permanent and less high-maintenance, consider planted options. Modern Sprout offers stylish grow lights (freestanding, countertop, or wall-mounted) that mimic the sun and come with an app for added support. Use them to nourish indoor plants that can impart both beauty and aroma. Try a classic like gardenias, something unexpected like nutmeg-scented geraniums, or herb varieties like lemon balm, rosemary, or basil for the kitchen. (modernsprout.com)

AWAKEN THE SENSES EASY TIPS FOR INCORPORATING SENSORY DESIGN INTO YOUR HOME

BY LIZA GRANT SMITH To create a truly soothing environment, it’s best to engage more than one sense. Begin by defining the mood you’d like to cultivate, then lean into design choices that evoke that emotion and reflect that intention. Here are a few tricks to stimulate your senses beyond sight.

SMELL A GREAT-SMELLING SPACE CAN BOOST YOUR MOOD, SO GO BEYOND THE SCENTED CANDLE WITH THESE COOL PRODUCTS

NEW-SCHOOL APPROACH With showrooms in Palm Beach and Boca Raton, Aroma 360 is focused on the science of aromachology (the study of how smell impacts human behavior). Whether it be in luxury hotels and spas or personal residences, the brand’s crafted fragrance oils can add depth and character to a space. Select one of the diffusers based on the square footage you are scenting and then pick out a transportive blend.

For example, Aroma 360’s best-selling Summer Breeze was inspired by The Ritz-Carlton hotel collection and boasts top notes of cucumber, melon, and violet. (aroma360.com)

HEAR DECIDE WHETHER YOU WANT A ROOM TO SPEAK VOLUMES OR BE A SILENT SANCTUARY

SPEAK UP Thanks to advanced sound technology, you can set up a multiroom sound system throughout your home. By pairing Sonos speakers and their accompanying app with a streaming service such as Spotify, you can create a soundtrack for each primary room. Keep it zen in rooms meant for relaxation and upbeat and engaging in convivial gathering areas. (sonos.com)

QUIET TIME Reducing noise can promote a sense of calm and focus. Sound bounces off hardwood and tile floors, so consider layering a plush carpet in areas meant for comfort, such as bedrooms. Another option is cork wallpaper. Designers like Candice Olson for York Wallcoverings have introduced gorgeous versions of this type of wallcovering, which, in addition to being eco-friendly, is an excellent sound absorber.

TASTE THE KEY TO ENGAGING THE SENSE OF TASTE IS TO CELEBRATE EPICUREAN EYE CANDY INSTEAD OF HIDING IT BEHIND CLOSED CABINET DOORS

ENTICING EATS An old favorite, the countertop fruit bowl can deliver a pop of color to any kitchen. Fill it with green apples or citrus fruits for an instant dose of cheer. Or purchase a cake stand and glass dome, like this one by William Yeoward Crystal, and make it a habit to pick up or prepare baked goods to display. Available at Hive Home, Gift & Garden, West Palm Beach (hivepalmbeach.com)

DRINK DISPLAYS Keep in mind that taste includes libations. Wine walls are a great way to aesthetically pique the sense of taste. That same effect, on a smaller scale, can be obtained through a bar cart adorned with liquor bottles, mixers, and glassware.

TOUCH IS ESSENTIAL TO THE EXPERIENTIAL NATURE OF A HOME, BECAUSE HOW WE TACTILELY INTERACT WITH A SPACE GREATLY INFLUENCES OUR IMPRESSION OF IT

MIX AND MATCH When it comes to textures, sometimes more is more. By mixing and layering various materials you avoid boredom—both from a visual perspective and a mental perspective. An easy way to achieve this is through pillows. Using pillows of different fabrics and feels creates a sense of depth and elicits intrigue.

TOUCH

CREATE A COCOON Establish one or more areas where you can retreat and find solace in soft fabrics and cushioning. While a weighted blanket can provide that, try building a comfort zone with a cozy couch and sumptuous accessories or installing a hanging chair with a cocoon-like shape, such as this option from Anthropologie.

BY LIZA GRANT SMITH

HEAD IN THE CLOUDS Hundreds of glass balls in various sizes are arranged to form a cloud-like orb and give rise to the nomenclature of Regina Andrew’s Nimbus chandelier (starting at $3,200). Clive Daniel Home, Boca Raton (clivedaniel.com)

SEA AND BE SEEN Bring a sense of seaside calm to your interiors with Palecek’s seaglass mirror ($1,636) encircled with recycled glass stones.

Luxe Furniture, West Palm Beach (luxefurniture.net)

SHAKE IT This hand-painted and hand-engraved crystal Fly Fusion ladybug salt and pepper set ($185) by Artel will introduce some refined playfulness to your table setting. Mary Mahoney, Palm Beach (marymahoney.com)

RUFFLE SOME FEATURES With its glass base and ruffled edges in either 24-karat gold or platinum, this buffet plate ($118) by Annieglass is the company’s best-selling plate year after year. The Regency Collection at Home, Boca Raton (regencycollectiongifts.com)

VERDANT BOUQUET Inspired by the wide-mouth jars commonly used in European villages to display the fruits of a summer harvest, EtúHome’s recycled glass mason jars ($135 for medium) feature a splash of high-gloss white paint to hide stem ends. Our Boathouse, Delray Beach (ourboathouse.com)

ENHANCE YOUR DINING DECOR WITH CHIC GLASS ACCENTS

WHITE OUT For this oceanfront villa, Annie Santulli of Annie Santulli Designs aimed to accentuate the view and create an illusion of grand space. The palette of white and pale blue glass brings attention to the exterior setting, while the commingling of various textures augments the luxurious aesthetic. The white glass light fixture is a whimsical counterpoint to the chrome and glass dining table and bold art.

Palm Beach Gardens (anniesantullidesigns.com)

REVERSE COURSE The Currey and Company Arden pink chest ($4,650) is a nod to a 1970s reverse-painted glass antique discovered at the Paris Flea Market. Mecox, West Palm Beach (mecox.com)

AT FIRST BLUSH The sharp lines of these Karma wineglasses ($14 each) evoke a midcentury modern vibe, while the hue adds a touch of personality. Maison Curated, Boynton Beach (maison curated.com) 170 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Love of Landscape THESE PALM BEACH GARDENS SHOWCASE THE ISLAND’S NATURAL BEAUTY IN ALL ITS SPLENDOR

BY MARIE PENNY

1

X 1. MEMORIAL FOUNTAIN PARK, 1929 Addison Mizner’s Memorial Fountain included a formal public garden designed by Charles Perrochet, a landscape architect and member of Palm Beach’s Art Jury (the precursor to the town’s Architectural Commission Review, or ARCOM) who also worked for the Island Landscape Company. The pool is framed by hedges and palms in a lush celebration of color and texture.

In 1989, Earl E.T. Smith Park, commissioned by the Preservation Foundation and designed by Edward Durell Stone Jr., was established across the street from the Palm Beach Town Hall, continuing the tradition of outdoor spaces in midtown.

2

2. DAVIS GARDEN, 1937 Architect John Volk worked with the Boynton Landscape Com-

172

pany to design this parterre garden on South Lake Trail for Mr. and Mrs. Charles Davis. “Parterre” is French for “on the ground,” and these ornamental gardens are typically composed of boxed hedges planted close to the ground. The ordered design is anchored by Volk’s architecture and juxtaposed by the surrounding swaying palms indicative of the flora of South Florida.

COURTESY OF THE PRESERVATION FOUNDATION OF PALM BEACH

Great landscape and great architecture go hand in hand. Landscape architects shape natural forms into works of art and are tasked with designing spaces that communicate with the structures around them. Whether private or public, there is no shortage of captivating gardens in Palm Beach. Here are three historic gardens that have adapted and endured over the years.

3. FOUR ARTS GARDENS, 1956 Innocenti & Webel were best known for their work in Hobe Sound and Long Island’s Gold Coast when the Garden Club of Palm Beach commissioned them to restore the 1938-era Society of the Four Arts Gardens. Richard Webel redesigned the seven gardens into “small garden rooms” and focused on the garden’s architectural features. Webel stated that the “architectural elements are more efficient, particularly where space is limited.”

Marie Penny is the consulting director of archives for the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach.

ROOTS IN THE COMMUNITY Who better to improve the natural environment of communities than the community members themselves? That’s the concept behind Boca Raton–based Community Greening, an urban forestry nonprofit that founders Mark Cassini and Matt Shipley established in 2016 to address the loss of green space in South Florida. The organization is a collective effort to increase the region’s tree canopy—a vital contributor to such environmental factors as clean air, flood reduction, and food production. Trees can also decrease temperatures by up to 10 degrees, boost mental health, and increase property values, says Cassini. Community Greening accomplishes its mission by offering free residential tree giveaways, hosting volunteer-assisted tree plantings at public spaces, forming beneficial partnerships with municipalities and corporations, and creating neighborhood urban orchards on formerly neglected lots. But perhaps its most impactful initiative, according to Cassini, is its Youth Tree Team, which engages local high school students to improve their neighborhood while fostering environmental stewardship. “The importance of getting outside, connecting with nature, and investing in their neighborhoods is life-changing at that age,” he notes. (communitygreening.org) —Liza Grant Smith

Community Greening’s programs aim to increase the county’s tree canopy and foster a sense of environmental stewardship among residents.

Genetic CODE HOW ONE BOYNTON BEACHER IS HELPING OTHERS TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR HEALTH

BY VALERIE STAGGS

“

WE ARE THAT STATISTIC OF PEOPLE WHO ARE MISSED BY THE GUIDELINES. WE WOULD NEVER BE FLAGGED FOR TESTING IN TODAY’S HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.”

Dahlia Attia-King (standing), founder of Panacea, with her sister, Jasmin Attia

—DAHLIA ATTIA-KING

ELINA KRIVULETS/ELINA’S DREAM PHOTOGRAPHY

Dahlia Attia-King never suspected that the company she founded to save lives would save her own. The Boynton Beach resident, who started Panacea to make genetic testing more accessible to the public, was the first to be tested along with her sister, Jasmin. They were both surprised to find that, despite having no family history of ovarian cancer, they each had a genetic mutation that made them nine times more likely to develop the disease, Attia-King says.

Their story illustrates why Attia-King is so passionate about giving people more access to genetic testing. She explains that existing guidelines for genetic testing suggest testing only if the patient has a personal or family history of cancer or disease. “We are that statistic of people who are missed by the guidelines,” she adds. “We would never be flagged for testing in today’s health care system.”

Attia-King recognized the need for a better system while working in sales for a group of genetic laboratories in 2014. “Genetic testing had the potential to revolutionize how health

care is managed, especially preventative health care, yet … more than 80 percent of people could not get tested,” she says. This is largely because insurance companies do not offer wide coverage for genetic testing.

Panacea allows people to order a test kit to be shipped to their home. The kit contains a cheek swab that is then sent to a Panacea partner lab. Results take 14 to 21 business days to process, and Panacea’s partner genetic counselors meet with each person to review their results and what they mean for their health.

Attia-King explains that while there are other

genetic tests on the market, such as ancestry tests, Panacea promotes in-depth clinical testing, called whole exome sequencing, using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. As Attia-King notes, most direct-to-consumer genetic companies do not use NGS and, therefore, cannot provide clinical testing. Panacea’s tests can identify changes in genes related to various cancers as well as some cardiovascular conditions, neurological disorders, and rare diseases. “We’ve barely scratched the surface of how our genes play a role in our health,” she says.

FOUR SEASONS RESORT PALM BEACH The Very Suite Couples massage may make you reconsider alone time; choose between the Ocean Bliss, Deep Sea Intensive, Oceania Salt Stone, or Palm Beach Signature massages.

Should you still want a treatment all your own, the Gentleman’s Classic Facial will cleanse, exfoliate, and steam you into a fresh new face.

Or book a body treatment like a scrub or wrap on a Lemi aqua bed, a warm water mattress that suspends you in a glow of chromotherapy. (fourseasons.com/palmbeach/spa)

JUPITER BEACH RESORT & SPA For men, spa director Alyssa Durivou recommends a deep tissue massage or the Signature Bliss experience, which consists of an exfoliation, application of warm lavender body oil with heated stones, and a massage rounded out with foot and scalp treatments while wrapped in a warm lavender cocoon. The Deluxe HydraFacial is another solid choice: the cleanse-extract-infuse method combines LED therapy, a personalized mask, and customized nutrient boosters to reveal a radiance you didn’t know you had.

PROCEDURE PLAYS When products aren’t getting the job done, there are nonsurgical procedures offered by med spas like MD Beauty Labs in West Palm Beach and Palm Beach. Dermal fillers, such as Juvederm’s Voluma, are noninvasive and do not require any significant recovery time. Voluma is an injectable hyaluronic acid gel that can restore skin’s elasticity and volume, as well as stimulate collagen production.

Appointments for the Voluma hand treatment typically take half an hour or less, with results lasting anywhere from 18 months to 2 years. To address hyperpigmentation, sunspots, and age spots, patients can add on to their Voluma hand treatment with other nonsurgical options including chemical peels and laser treatments.

SLUGGING Hand slugging has been making the rounds on TikTok, and while versions of the hydrating technique vary in terms of products used and recommended duration, the basics (and its benefits) are the same. Essentially, slugging involves adding a layer of Vaseline or moisturizer to your hands and wrapping or covering them with gloves for several hours or even overnight. The moisturizer creates a barrier that helps restore skin’s natural balance. It can also soothe irritated or inflamed skin and help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Ready to try it yourself? Pair the Soft Services Theraplush Overnight Repair Treatment ($62) with a set of moisturizing gloves ($22) from Malcolm’s Miracle. (softservices.co, malcolmsmiracle.com)

NAILED IT As with most other beauty sectors, nails are not immune to trends, particularly when it comes to polish colors and manicure designs. While blueberry milk nails were last summer’s coveted craze, the popularity crown has now been bestowed upon a new beverageinspired look. Apropos for winter, hot chocolate nails are having their day thanks to such trendsetters as Hailey Bieber and Kim Kardashian.

Join in on the trend by asking your manicurist for a dark brown polish that mimics the popular libation. Or, select an array of hues from mocha to dark chocolate and color each nail a different shade to evoke the paint chip nail trend.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE Extend your daily skin care routine to include your hands. Many leading companies are leaning into the hand care trend with product lines devoted to palms, digits, cuticles, and the like. Paume, for example, specializes in dedicated skin care for the hands, complete with clean formulas and a Plastic Neutral Certification, meaning that every one of its products carries a net-zero plastic footprint. Get started with the Paume Age Defying Trio ($94), which comes with the Probiotic Hand Balm, Renewing Hand Serum, and All-in-One Cuticle and Nail Cream. (mypaume.com) 212

SEASONAL CITRUS OFFERS MYRIAD WELLNESS BENEFITS

It smells like heaven this time of year, as the buds open on grapefruit and lemon trees. The intoxicating scent transports me back to my childhood in Florida, surrounded by the sweet fragrance of orange and tangerine groves. Memories of picking fruit and sipping juice from roadside stands flood my mind, evoking a sense of nostalgia for the simplicity of those times. As the bees in my garden go wild enjoying every bit of nectar, I’m also reminded that spring—and the appearance of orange blossom honey at local farmers markets—is not far behind.

DON’T PANIC SELL IN 2024 FOR DECADES, INDEX FUNDS HAVE PROVEN TO OUTPERFORM THE MARKET. WHILE THERE’S A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY RIGHT NOW, ECONOMISTS RECOMMEND HOLDING ONTO STOCK INVESTMENTS DESPITE WHAT THE HEADLINES AND YOUR BANK STATEMENTS MAY SAY.

BY JOE PYE

I

nflation, rising interest rates, and slow economic growth made 2023 a volatile year in the stock market. In January 2023—in an act that typified this volatility and sent many into a frenzy—multimillionaire investor Michael Burry cryptically tweeted, “sell.”

It’s easy to ignore a single-word Tweet from some guy. But when that guy is known for single-handedly predicting the secondlargest economic crisis in U.S. history, people listen. However, those who reacted kicked themselves two months later when he tweeted, “I was wrong to say sell.”

Emotional responses can lead to major losses in the long-term. Furthermore, panic always leads to regret, explains Jay Ritter, an economics professor at the University of Florida (UF).

“Occasionally, Michael Burry or a Jim Cramer has insight—but that’s like once every 10

216

years,” Ritter says. “In the meantime, they’re giving out lots of different advice every day.

The best strategy for most people would be to completely ignore what they’re saying.”

Here’s what you should do this year instead.

Buy and Hold The alleged “investing gurus” may have the capital and insight to risk timing the market.

But Ritter recommends a more passive investment strategy, one that accrues more value in the long run.

Index funds are low-fee portfolios sold through investment management companies like Vanguard, Fidelity, or Charles Schwab.

The strategy is always the same: you purchase a small piece of 500 of the country’s largest companies. This group represents diverse industries, from Apple and Tesla to Chevron and Exxon Mobil.

It’s a smart strategy because it’s a numbers game. Since your ownership is spread out among 500 companies, if one’s having a bad day, there are 499 others making up the difference. The market naturally goes up and down. However, historic trends prove that the return on investment (ROI) exceeds inflation in the long-term.

“I’m old enough to remember the 1987 stock market crash,” says Ritter. “I got calls from several people that night, the next day, [asking,] ‘What should I do?’ And I said, with complete confidence, ‘You should do absolutely nothing. The stock market might go down further; it might stage a massive recovery.’ As it turned out, it did go down a little bit further before staging a massive recovery. But I had no doubt in my mind that the right thing to do for almost everybody was nothing—just buy and hold.”

Diversify The beauty of an index fund portfolio is its diversity. But your overall investment portfolio should be diverse outside of equity stocks, says Rebel Cole, a finance professor at Florida Atlantic University (FAU).

With asset allocation, the goal is to build a portfolio made up of a wide variety of wealth.

Index fund portfolios can be more than equity stocks; you can also buy real estate and bond portfolios.

Cole, who is a former staff economist with the Federal Reserve and has been at FAU since 2016, teaches graduate-level courses in corporate finance and financial institutions.

He recommends this asset allocation formula: subtract your age from 100; take that result and put it in stocks; put the remaining balance in low-risk savings bonds.

For example, if you’re 30, your portfolio should be made up of 70 percent equity stocks and 30 percent low-risk savings

bonds. When you’re 60—and closer to retirement age—keep 40 percent in equity stocks and 60 percent in low-risk bonds or even short-term certificates of deposits or money market funds. The idea is to take on more risk while you are young and lower that risk as you age. But regardless of age, remember to not attempt to time the market and do not panic sell.

Your best investment strategy this year really is the easiest one: buy low-fee index funds and hold onto them. Ignore the experts and “doom and gloom” headlines when the market goes through its natural ebbs and flows.

“With index funds, you don’t have to wor-

ry—you’re on autopilot,” Cole says. “You’re not trying to pick sectors, winners, and losers when you don’t have any expertise. That’s exactly what I would recommend to most of my students, or their parents. Index funds— that’s the way to go.” «

DIVINE DEBUT Rosenbaum Contemporary’s Palm Beach gallery will set the scene for artist Danielle Kosann’s first solo exhibition, “A Divine Comedy,” on view February 8-29. With artistic foundations in photography and new media, Kosann expresses her visions in vibrant, textural oil and acrylic paintings that whisk viewers away to both familiar and fantastical destinations.

As whimsical as they are humorous, Kosann’s largescale paintings draw on social media imagery, film, literature, and art history to convey the human desire to escape—whether to faraway lands or into an afternoon spent scrolling—and comment on Western society’s proclivities toward technology and excess.

LAST WORD You’ve launched made-to-measure, ready-to-wear, sunglasses, shoes, handbags, perfume, swimwear, and a lingerie collection.

What’s next?

We have a few cards still up our sleeves. More store locations and a full line of shapewear are in the works. This upcoming spring, we will be in a handful of exclusive boutiques including Net-a-Porter with Alvin Valley Jeans.

What’s your dream collaboration?

I would love to collaborate with photographer Nathan Coe. His work is innately tied to Palm Beach and its culture. I’d like to explore my inner Palm Beacher.

I think we could come up with some amazing images of my product and his vision.

What was your first foray into fashion?

At age 13, I had a patternmaker teach me how to sew and make patterns. [After that,] I made my sister’s clothes; she was my first muse. At 21, I opened my first atelier in Coconut Grove. Some of my first walk-ins were Kate Moss, Neve Campbell (who commissioned me for a dress for the MTV awards), and Denise Richards.

You have a special relationship with your clientele. How does that influence your designs?

My clients are everything. When you’re designing for runway, the priority is very different than when you’re designing for clients. Runway, you’re thinking of the editors, press, influencers, really people who don’t open their wallets, so I can come up with crazy and over-the-top designs.

When you work with a real client, the process is very different. My design comes alive only when I put it on one of my doyennes. It is about fitting it on them live. That flow of creative energy is beyond!

And that’s also why we end up friends for life.

REAL TALK WITH...

Alvin Valley

The Palm Beach–based designer and reigning “King of Pants” reflects on where he’s been and where he’s going

BY KATHERINE LANDE

How does Palm Beach inspire your collections?

Moving to Palm Beach reawakened my love for pattern and color. Beyond the pastels, there is a vibrancy here. It is one of the last places in America where women dress up daily to go to lunch or even to shop. It attracts very elegant people. The architecture is like nowhere else in the United States. I have always dressed the chicest women from Palm Beach … [and] now there’s a new crop of ladies ordering made-to-measure. They inspire me beyond!

The Alvin Valley collection includes readyto-wear, handbags, shoes, and more.
