EDITOR’S LETTER

That face. It’s impossible to talk about Candice Bergen without talking about her staggering beauty—the sapphire eyes, the nose that launched countless cosmetic surgery requests, her glacial Nordic looks and deep whiskey voice… Yet Bergen’s most intoxicating feature may be her intransigent honesty. As Elizabeth Quinn Brown notes in her account of the 72-year-old “Living Legend,”she is Candid Bergen. “I see how important my looks have been to people. I had no idea how much they mattered,” Bergen writes in her memoir, A Fine Romance. Beauty is “an all-access pass,” she says. It opens doors and elicits job offers, sometimes long before they’re deserved (her early acting reviews were savage). The noted ventriloquist Edgar Bergen cautioned his daughter: “You know, Candy, it’s the beautiful women who commit suicide. It’s the beautiful women who struggle in life.” Thanks, Dad. But Bergen understood that he spoke from experience: “I mean, he dated Ava Gardner.”

“It’s harsh,” Bergen concedes. “But I did exactly what he told me. I pursued my other interests, I wrote and I photographed.”

Life for Bergen has always been in widescreen: A child of Hollywood, she attended Elizabeth Taylor’s Easter egg hunts as a little girl. At 20 years old, she danced at Truman Capote’s legendary Black and White Ball, while living in the Beverly Hills house that would later become infamous as “the Sharon Tate house.” As a young activist, Bergen palled around with Huey Newton and Abbie Hoffman, and once accepted a date with Henry Kissinger.

A frequent host on Saturday Night Live starting in 1975, Bergen was the first woman to host the show and the first host to do a second show. She was also the first woman to join the Five-Timers Club, when she hosted for the fifth time in 1990. However, it was her turn as Murphy Brown for which she is most famous. I remember watching Murphy Brown as a little girl growing up in New York City—at least five of my fourth-grade classmates at Brearley, an all-girls private day school, wanted to be the eponymous heroine: a headstrong, take-no-prisoners Washington investigative reporter. The character became a feminist icon in the post-Reagan era—a trailblazer in the days of faxes and beepers. “Mike Wallace in a dress,” as the producers put it.

Quest and Q’s treasured editor-in-chief, David Patrick Columbia, addresses the media melee that emerged upon Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex’s recent trip to New York City. Watching the storybook duchess move from limousine to entrance (and exit), Columbia imagines how much she looked like the movie star she might have been if she hadn’t eighty-sixed her career to marry everyone’s favorite royal prince. Is Meghan Markle her generation’s Grace Kelly? Perhaps that could have been her story.

However, different times may promise better outcomes for the duchess and her prince. The world wants the best for Diana’s youngest boy, and hopes that will materialize into a long and bright future for him.

Ewa Aulin, a former Swedish actress who appeared in several Italian and some American films in the 1960s and ’70s, can be remembered for playing the title character in the cult film Candy. In the film, she appeared with John Huston, Ringo Starr, Walter Matthau, James Coburn, Richard Burton, and Marlon Brando—quite a lineup of shining stars. This season, be inspired by Aulin and work on accumulating a lineup of equally impressive stars—or candy—of your own, in the form of baubles fit for a queen. From floral rings to luminous swimming turtles, the treasures here will brighten your wardrobe.

Here, a model sporting over-the-knee boots and a plaid coat is seen in one of Irving Pennâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s captivating shots from the 1960s.

Stepping Into Spring Mary Quant, a London-based fashion designer famed for creating the miniskirt and defining the Chelsea Look, strongly believed that good style had to be affordable; as a young designer during the 1960s, Quant assured her collections were appealing to youthful clients, and incorporated lively elements into her ensembles and accessories. For example, she’d often add white plastic collars onto plain black dresses and bursts of bright colors onto shoes. In this photo, fashion model Ika poses with Mary Quant’s new footwear collection, which features playful bows, ties, and stripes, on April 6, 1972.

This page: Candice Bergen with the cast of the original Murphy Brown, which aired from 1988 to 1998. > Opposite page: the actress in 1967.

She’s candid, that Candice Bergen. The ice-blonde star could, perhaps, have coasted on her debutante-like looks. But, she has more character than that. She selects “real” roles (such as feminist icon Murphy Brown)—and she’s “real” in person, too. This is especially evident in her two memoirs, Knock Wood (1984) and Fine Romance (2016). Candice professed to The Washington Post (April 8, 2015): “If you’re going to make the commitment to do a memoir, which is only narcissistic, you have to really commit to the honesty of it.”

Candice Patricia Bergen was born in Beverly Hills, California, on May 9, 1946. Her parents, Edgar and Frances Bergen, were of German and Swedish descent (“Bergen” came from the Swedish “Berggren,” which means “mountain branch”).

Edgar was famous for his ventriloquist act, which featured his character: Charlie McCarthy. Edgar (and Charlie) starred in films and TV shows, including CBS’s The Charlie

McCarthy Show. Candice recollects to VanityFair.com (February 4, 2016): “My father was a ventriloquist—on the radio— and the dummy he created was a cocky, charming character who went on to become an icon in ’40s and ’50s America.

While technically an only child, I was always known—as a kid, at least—as ‘Charlie’s sister.’ Now I want your pity. Is it any wonder my early performances in film were referred to as ‘wooden’?” Frances was also in show business: She had a career as an actress and as a model for brands like Chesterfield (cigarettes) and Ipana (toothpaste).

Candice studied at the Westlake School for Girls (now the Harvard-Westlake School) in Los Angeles, California, before she transferred to the Montesano “finishing” school

Living Legend Candice Bergen

in Switzerland. There, she became fluent in French while she embraced the Swiss-French brand of chic. In one of her memoirs, Bergen reminisces: “‘Candy, is that all you’ve learned here in three months?’ my mother asked. ‘Smoking and drinking and bleaching your hair?’ It was, basically, all I’d learned, but I took great pride in having acquired these suave and sophisticated skills, as essential to Alpine survival as a Swiss army knife.”

The fair-haired teen was introduced to her (non-wooden) brother on October 12, 1961, when Edgar and Frances welcomed their son, Kris Bergen (Candice was 16). The Bergen children shared the house for a short time before Candice enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania. There, she socialized more than she studied. This included a date with Donald Trump (who was also a student at the time). She shared on CBS’s The Late Show With Stephen Colbert: “I was home very early.”

Candice was crowned Homecoming Queen and Miss University—but she failed some of her arts classes. And so she relocated to New York City. Her film debut was as Lakey Eastlake (the lesbian character) in The Group (1966). She was soon cast in The Sand Pebbles (1966), which starred Richard Attenborough and Steve McQueen. The films that followed included Carnal Knowledge (1971), which starred Art Garfunkel and Jack Nicholson, and The Wind and the Lion (1975), which starred Sean Connery.

Candice was now an actress. And she was a model (she was featured on the cover of Vogue’s May 1967 issue). And she was a photographer. From 1971 to 1976, Bergen contributed to publications like Esquire, LIFE, New York magazine,

and Playboy. Her pictures included celebrities (like Charlie Chaplin and Paul Newman), as well as culture icons (like Muhammad Ali and the Black Panthers’ Huey P. Newton).

During this time, she remained grounded as she cultivated her different interests—which was, in part, per the advice of her father, Edgar, who had advised, “You know, Candy, it’s the beautiful women who commit suicide. It’s the beautiful women who struggle in life.” Candice remembered to The Washington Post (April 8, 2015): “I pursued my other interests, I wrote and I photographed. I never asked for a mirror on the set. Ever. I’m the only female or male that I’ve seen who didn’t care. I mean, once your makeup is done, that’s it.

I don’t have much vanity, though more as I get older.”

Candice married Louis Malle (the French film director) in her 30s, on September 27, 1980. It was a romance that started with a first date at the Russian Tea Room. She described on NPR’s Weekend Edition Sunday: “When you’re advanced in life, you— your antennae go up very quickly when you think you have met someone where there will be a deep connection. And that happened with both of us. He was a very brilliant man. He could be incredibly charming, as only a Frenchman can be. I was just fascinated by him and trusted him.”

Candice and Louis welcomed their daughter, Chloe Françoise Malle, on November 8, 1985 (Chloe is now a contributing editor at Vogue and a freelance writer). But it wasn’t until 1988 that Candice—at the age of 41—would secure her most famous role: the title role on CBS’s Murphy Brown. Murphy Brown was a journalist who worked for the fictional FYI magazine and, later, for the fictional Murphy in the Morning TV show. The character became a feminist icon in the show’s 10 seasons, first as a career woman (and a recovering alcoholic) and then as a single mother. Candice received five Emmy awards and two Golden Globe awards for the role.

CBS’s Murphy Brown contributed to the nation’s culture with its feminist themes. Its influence was furthered when Dan Quayle (then President George H.W. Bush’s V.P.) delivered a speech that included: “It doesn’t help matters when

prime-time TV has Murphy Brown, a character who supposedly epitomizes today’s intelligent, highly paid professional woman, mocking the importance of fathers by bearing a child alone and calling it just another lifestyle choice.” Diane English, the show’s creator, responded with a statement: “If the Vice President thinks it’s disgraceful for an unmarried woman to bear a child, and if he believes that a woman cannot adequately raise a child without a father, then he’d better make sure abortion remains safe and legal.” The conversation was sparked—and it would continue to be so.

Louis died in 1995 and Candice was single until she met her second husband, Marshall Rose (the real-estate developer), whom she married in 2000. Candice and Marshall reside in East Hampton, New York; in Los Angeles, California; and in New York City (in a Fifth Avenue home that was once owned

by Jackie Kennedy). Recently, Candice has starred in romantic comedies like Miss Congeniality (2000) with Sandra Bullock; Sweet Home Alabama (2002) with Reese Witherspoon; and The Romantics (2010) with Katie Holmes. She has also played fictional Vogue editor Enid Frick on HBO’s Sex and the City. In 2018, Candice returned for the reboot of CBS’s Murphy Brown series (which was canceled after one season).

Through it all, she has remained relevant. It must be because of her candid interviews (which are all a pleasure to read), as well as her countless contributions to the zeitgeist. Who wouldn’t want to watch the beloved and glamorous—not to mention successful—model, actress and mother who intimated in one of her memoirs: “At a recent dinner party I shared bread and olive oil, followed by chocolate ice cream, with my husband. A woman near me looked at me, appalled, and I thought, ‘I don’t care.’” u

In addition to American Express being the only credit card accepted at the restaurant, card members enjoy a host of travel benefits from the entity as well, and the St. Regis as a destination itself. Located at the base of Aspen Mountain, the resort features discerningly appointed suites, and access to skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, Krabloonik dogsledding tours, apres ski cocktails and conversation, and the Remède Spa, which houses an oxygen room that is much appreciated in Aspen’s high altitudes. “Aspen is such a beautiful, enjoyable destination, and following East Hampton, we wanted to make sure we found a place equally special,” says Guidara. “Going into the St. Regis, specifically with Chefs Club, was an easy decision after meeting with their team because they understood exactly what we wanted to do—create a unique experience, something not found in Aspen, and done so with our food and hospitality standards. It also needed to be a lot of fun!”

Filled with vintage ski and snow gear, the yurts reflect Aspen while transporting guests to other cold-weather destinations like St. Moritz and Chamonix (they can warm up with yak, camel, and cashmere throws from Hangai Mountain Textiles in Basalt, Colorado, and Mongolia).

“With EMP Summer House, we had the backyard where guests could play games, order large-format lobster boils or tacos spreads, and just spend hours of the time reveling in the experience,” Guidara says. “We had to have something like that in Aspen, but of course there are some limitations with the weather.

Yurt Village helped us achieve that experiential element and flex some of our creativity. It’s also a ton of fun, light hearted, and it’s a magical place to spend an evening with friends and family around the table.” u For more information about EMP Winter House in partnership with American Express, visit empwinterhouse.com.

Patti Hansen: The Lens’s Muse by

Daniel Cappello

Some models sit for the photographer, while for others, the photographer seems to sit for them. In the case of Patti Hansen, it’s as if the camera always trained on her, not vice versa.

Looking back at her legacy, it’s clear that some women are just born with “it”—that elusive quality that no hair stylist, makeup artist, or seasoned photographer can improve upon. Hansen broke onto the scene at the age of 16 to begin her modeling career; with a freckled face, full lips, and strawberry hair, her youth was fresh and innocent, yet highly adaptable. The Staten Island–born model was perfect for the ever-shifting decade she came to represent, the 1970s.

A recent book, Patti Hansen: A Portrait (Abrams/Condé Nast Archive), tells the story of her astonishing career arc and continuing influence today. Hansen helped shape the times and was able to reflect them; to be sure, she is still considered one of the most iconic figures from that period, and the documentation

The girl who graced the cover of Vogue 12 times during that decade could play—convincingly—just about any part, from the sheepish ingénue to the stylish socialite, from the bathing-suit beauty to the jet-setting world traveler.

She would eventually leave the industry to pursue acting and then marry Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, but she returned to modeling in the 1990s and has been an inspiration to just about everyone who’s followed in her steps ever since. The impact of her influence is made clear in a personal and telling foreword by the model Karlie Kloss, who describes the early days of her own modeling career when Kloss would spend hours in lobby of Vogue magazine waiting for the booking editors to

For the anxious model looking to chart her own course, “Patti’s image in that lobby was an aspirational yet reassuring beacon.”

Over the years, Hansen would become a role model for Kloss. “From the seventies through the new millennium and beyond, there’s at least one photograph of Patti that symbolizes the culture, music, style, and fashion of each decade,” Kloss writes. As the book unfolds, Hansen’s memoir is told as a visual story, with each photo celebrating the strength and beauty of all women through the story of American’s ultimate fashion icon: Patti Hansen. u

Q69

The Duchess of Sussex,

As the world now knows, on a Friday late last month, the Duchess of Sussex, otherwise known as Meghan Markle, wife of Prince Harry, now the Duke, arrived in New York for a surprise private visit. This was unheralded in the local media.

I first learned all about it four days later on the following Tuesday from the British Daily Mail—the tabloid of tabloids in the whole world—splashed with lots of color photos of the beautiful, seven-months-pregnant mother-to-be—often with her hand on the top of her baby bump—arriving at her hotel.

The duchess was staying at The Mark—giving a five-star, million-dollar plug to the hotel, which is a favorite cocktails and dinner meeting place for residents of the Upper East Side. The duchess’s beloved, late mother-in-law used to stay a block away at The Carlyle.

Although I pass through that part of the neighborhood frequently, I was not in shouting distance or knowledge of the old-time media melee covering her walking in and out of cars and doors over that weekend in what otherwise had seemed like a very quiet metropolis.

That Tuesday night at Ralph Lauren’s Polo Bar, across from the St. Regis, the duchess, followed and surrounded by a band of paparazzi outside, attended a little dinner with friends. The first thing that came to my mind was: Ralph Lauren does it again! Watching the storybook duchess move from limousine to entrance (and exit), I could only think how much she looked like the movie star she might have been if she hadn’t ditched her career to marry everyone’s favorite royal prince.

Q70

/ WINTER 2019

Reading the article, taking in the photos, I found myself feeling nostalgic—tabloids, movie stars, royalty, lights, camera action—for another time in New York when the local tabloids— the News and the Mirror—were there to liven up the place on the cold, dull weather days of February. Meghan Markle is her generation’s Grace Kelly. They could’ve had the story. However, different times may promise better outcomes for the duchess and her prince. The world wants the best for Diana’s boy and his future.

The official, private reason for the visit was a “baby shower” held the following Wednesday at the hotel, attended by close friends and hosted by Amal Clooney and Serena Williams.

However, it is also true that the British royal family is “the firm.”

It’s quite likely there may be other, more far-seeing publicrelations reasons for this “surprise” visit, unattended by Prince Harry, such as the duchess’s “image.” There have been rumors that the royal couple might spend part of their year in this country. The Daily Mail had already grabbed millions of available eyeballs with their reports of Meghan and Kate’s cold shoulders (which one has it?). Whatever the objective, all of this “public” activity is good for keeping their names out there, and us public diverted from our realities. And it does do the trick many times, however briefly.

Speculation aside, the sudden, surprise trip to New York—where she was a frequent visitor during her acting career—provided a shot of good graces for Meghan Markle, all-American girl actress, now a member of another kind of movie. I like to imagine what the Queen thinks of Harry’s wife.

And vice versa. Whatever that is, it is entirely my imagination.

Having said that, it wouldn’t surprise me if Her Majesty might just be fascinated by this beautiful new duchess who made her own way to the throne (room). Elizabeth R, they say, offcamera, off-mike, is a very serious lady who also likes a good laugh. Wouldn’t we all? u This page: The duchess wears a vintage Courrèges Haute Couture black trapeze coat (ca. 1965, sourced by William Vintage), a CH Carolina Herrera Matryoshka Locked L Shoulder Bag, and Le Specs sunglasses, February 19, 2019. > Opposite page, clockwise from top: The Polo Bar, a handsome American restaurant from designer Ralph Lauren; Meghan visited the New York hot spot wearing a navy Victoria Beckham double-breasted coat, black skinny jeans, and Tamara Mellon boots, and was accompanied out of the restaurant by close friend Marcus Anderson, the global membership director of the posh members club group Soho House; Jessica Mulroney (left) and actress Abigail Spencer leaving the party at The Polo Bar.

With just a quick three hours up and down on JetBlue, you can be transported to the most romantic escape fathomable: an island sanctuary that, although located in the nearby Caribbean, feels as though it is halfway across the world, given its rustic ambiance and unparalleled serenity. Throughout the snaking 45-minute drive from St. Lucia’s Hewanorra International Airport to the grounds of Sugar Beach, A Viceroy Resort, you will be treated to glimpses of the famous Gros Piton and Petit Piton mountains as they peak just above the lush St. Lucian countryside—but it is not until the mountains reveal themselves in their entirety and you feel as though you can reach out and grasp them, that you know you have truly arrived. As you approach the reception area, you will be greeted by smiling faces holding personalized refreshments, and a shuttle will be waiting to take you to your plantation-style villa or room to begin an unforgettable retreat at Sugar Beach.

The resort’s villas and rooms are uniquely located right in the heart of the land’s volcanic mountainous terrain—nestled directly on a steep hillside and situated at the base of both Gros Piton and Petit Piton. Whether in a Sugarmill room, cottage, or villa, all options provide a plunge pool, a four-poster bed, air-conditioning, spacious walk-in showers, and a claw-foot tub, and all offer unsurpassed views of the Piton Bay. Surrounded by only the sounds of birds chirping and the running water of the plunge pool, it is truly a feeling of delightful seclusion. You are, however, not at all isolated as each cluster of villas has on-call butlers nearby.

Attentive and impeccably groomed, these butlers seem to always be anxiously awaiting your beckoning call and will quickly

become more akin to a friend to you than a butler. And, if you are wondering how you get around on such steep terrain, cell phones are provided to each group upon check-in so that you can easily call your butler, who will, within minutes, have a shuttle waiting to take you to your next activity. Those who love relaxation and tranquility can find themselves a comfortable spot on the property’s beach or pool, where the sun is seemingly always shining and where there are countless local drinks to choose from. For the more energetic types, there are many activities available right on the property, including fitness classes, tennis, beach volleyball, ping pong, badminton, snorkeling on the main beach, water sports, and more. The resort also offers guided tours and adventures for an additional cost, like the popular Sunset Cruise, a two-hour boat ride featuring music, tropical cocktails, and passed hors d’oeuvres, all while taking in beautiful views. You are also likely to spot groups of dolphins leaping out of the sun-kissed water.

After a long day of activities, you can enjoy a meal and drinks at one of the resort’s six highly rated restaurants led by Chef Jacques Chretien, who has worked for several top Michelin-starred restaurants over the course of 30 years. All Sugar Beach options are wonderful, and the standout is the Great Room—a proven favorite among selective diners due to its elegant French dishes with unique St. Lucian flavors like the roasted New Zealand lamb loin, a dish so tender that a knife is truly optional. You can also wind down at the lavish Rainforest Spa at the base of Petit Piton. A dimly lighted path across from the hotel’s reception area will lead you to a collection of six treehouse cabanas suspended over running water, where you will experience natural spa treatments while immersed in what resembles an ancient, rustic village—a true feeling of tranquility and relaxation.

Sugar Beach offers wedding and honeymoon packages, and for those seeking a more permanent stay, the property also recently introduced its Beachfront Collection Residences. Michaelis Boyd Associates brilliantly designed the homes to blend with the bucolic surroundings, with contrasting sleek interiors and amenities, like floor-to-ceiling windows, open kitchens, contemporary infinity pools, terraces, rain showers, flat-screen TVs, and more. And when the owners are absent, the properties are rented out (starting at $6,300 a night), making them investment-worthy as well. No matter what your plans may be, one thing is for sure: Sugar Beach represents the ultimate in secluded style. u For information, visit viceroyhotelsandresorts/en/sugarbeach.

This page: The food was strategically chosen to pair with the wine at this winter’s black-tie dinner at Annabel’s, in London. > Opposite page: Guests moved from the Rose Room and were seated for dinner in the Garden Courtyard.

Annabel’s Offers A Fix For Winter January is a tough month. After the excess of the holidays, January is marked by temperance, fasting, and long, dark nights. This year, one cure for such malaise was the chance to partake in a wine dinner in London at Annabel’s, featuring vintages by Château d’Yquem and Château Cheval Blanc.

Annabel’s nightclub on Berkeley Square has always been synonymous with glamour and sophistication, and the new owner, Richard Caring, is committed to keeping those aspects of the club in place. But it hasn’t been an easy feat. London’s chattering classes were outraged a few years ago when Caring decided once and for all to shut the doors of Mark Birley’s famous basement.

The old Annabel’s, named after Birley’s then-wife, Lady Annabel Vane-Tempest-Stewart, was opened in 1963 in the basement of the Claremont Casino. Mark Birley, son of society portrait painter Sir Oswald Birley and brother of style icon Maxime de la Falaise, required exacting standards of service in his club as well as possessing indisputably sophisticated taste.

The club was legendary for its style and ambiance, and

for being an emblem of upper-class England. Everyone from Mick Jagger to the Queen went to Annabel’s. Princess Diana, Frank Sinatra, Michael Bloomberg, and Elle MacPherson could be spotted there. It was a place where aristocrats and well-connected people from every part of the planet would mingle with good food and wine, and enjoy a little sophisticated hedonism. Everyone had to obey the rules of the strictly enforced formal dress code and being well-mannered to the staff. (With one or two exceptions…Sir Mick Jagger was given special dispensation not to have to wear a tie.)

But that was a long time ago. When Richard Caring bought the Birley Club group in 2005, for a reported £90 million, he was made to feel that he had to keep Annabel’s frozen in amber in order to keep Mark Birley’s legacy alive. But time had marched on and the vibe of yesteryear was simply impossible to maintain.

Caring tried to jazz it up in its original form. There were dinners with Kate Moss and Harry Styles, and Mark Ronson was invited to spin. Lady Gaga appeared one evening. Overall,

the space just couldn’t catch up to contemporary culture. There was too much history to overcome.

According to an interview with the FT, the moment of truth finally arrived when Caring decided to pop down to the club for a drink after dinner and the first thing he saw was an elderly couple asleep at a table near the entrance.

Caring wondered what Mark Birley would have made of that. He decided that the time for change had come. Caring is not a man to do anything by halves, and the next few years were spent buying and renovating one of the buildings next to Annabel’s. The estimated and reported cost for his new multi-storied Annabel’s was a cool £65 million. And if you include the art (including a £20 million Picasso called Red Beret and Pompom, which Caring bought and renamed Annabel), a lot more.

The membership was revised, but those who were original founding members were kept on for the same rate of £5 a year.

Cleverly, Caring employed younger people to build and maintain membership. Astrid Harbord, a well-connected young woman about town, is membership director. Ali Spencer-Churchill, a descendent of the Duke of Marlborough, runs the Legacy membership program (a special-tier level costing £250,000).

The club was launched with a slew of parties (Lady Claudia Rothermere threw her husband, Jonathan, owner of the Daily Mail Group, a party there in December), and the place has been humming with activity ever since.

I had been to the new Annabel’s once before. As a member living in New York, I don’t have much opportunity to visit the club as I’d like, so it was with great excitement that I accepted the invitation for the mid-week black-tie wine dinner this winter.

Astrid Harbord said it was the second wine dinner the club had hosted. “We love creating special experiences for our members and thought that it was the perfect way for people to end their dry January,” she said with a laugh.

Entering Annabel’s is like walking into a basket of flowers.

There is not one inch of the club that isn’t electrified with color. All of the staff have jackets covered in floral patterns, continuing the feeling of being in a greenhouse. It is a very Baroque experience.

The evening started in the Rose Room, so named because it is one giant slab of rose quartz lit up from behind. As Annabel’s is a club, the privacy of its members is paramount, but it was a good-looking international crew—diverse and attractive.

Perhaps to counter the winter blues, all the women wore jeweltone dresses, and, against the backdrop of the Rose Room, they seemed like pieces of brightly colored candy.

Waiters circled with hors d’oeuvres of slices of foie gras with small violet flowers on top and pouring the first wine of the night, Krug Grande Cuvée.

Astrid showed me, with obvious pride, to the Garden Courtyard, where we would be eating dinner. It is arguably the most beautiful aspect of Annabel’s. In summer, it’s an open-air space with a retractable roof (useful, given London’s WINTER 2019/

notoriously changeable weather). In winter, it’s transformed into a magnificent orangery and floral array, giving any grand wedding some stiff competition. Guests wandered in, stopping to say hi to this friend or that, and found their seats easily.

One familiar face was Lord Harry Dalmeny, Chairman of Sotheby’s UK, as known for his art-world knowledge as his cracking wit: “Lovely to be here, but as one grand old gentleman once noted to me, having a party on Wednesday spoils both weekends.”

That may be the case for some, but in my book, there is nothing wrong with being spoiled mid-week, and we certainly were.

Our first wine was a Château d’Yquem 2016, full-bodied and rich, accompanying a wild sea bass carpaccio and watercress starter. The dollop of added caviar brought out the fullness of taste. My dinner partner was the director of fine wines and private clients, Guillem Kerambrun, who oversees the wine lists for all of Caring’s iconic venues. He is a wine wunderkind and looks almost too young to drink, let alone be running one of the most important cellars in London. Guillem is one of those lucky people who found his passion early and pursued it determinedly.

He spent 13 years with Alain Ducasse, and then a few years at Caprice Holdings before Caring lured him to Annabel’s.

Guillem took to the stage to introduce the wine. The Château d’Yquem was very young, 2016, and they only make 10,000 bottles of it. Guillem explained, “The wine had just a touch of noble rot,” which is caused by overripe grapes and produces a sweeter taste associated with Sauternes.

For the next act, we were given three Château Cheval Blanc Saint-Émilion 1er Grand Cru Classé A wines. We started with a 2004 vintage, moved on to a 2006, and ended up with a 1995 bottle. The experience of the first two was obviously delicious and they were paired perfectly with blue lobster in a red wine– and–curry sauce. But sipping the 1995 brought a whole new layer of taste. It slid down like silk with the accompanying Beef Wellington and black truffles. The richness of the experience is not by accident.

As Cheval Blanc’s technical director, Pierre Olivier Clouet, commented, “We believe that the diversity of the vineyard builds the complexity of our wines. And the complexity comes from diversity of our soil, the diversity of grapes, and the diversity of age.”

Lastly, we had a class of Château d’Yquem 1er Cru Supérieur 1999, served in a magnum with an array of passion fruit and raspberry tartlets, blackcurrant Mont Blanc, and yuzu-andmiso puffs. Normally, I always decline dessert wine because the sweetness is too great at the end of a meal. Not this time.

There is a reason why the world goes nuts for Château d’Yquem wines; it’s like drinking liquid honey—full, nutty, and so rich.

Sufficiently sated, everyone peeled off into the cold January night knowing that, if there was ever a good reason to start drinking after a month off, the Annabel’s wine dinner was probably the most civilized—and certainly the most delicious— way to take up the habit again. u WINTER 2019/

The show concluded with eveningwear, which included pieces created for rising politicians and vacationers alike, including high-neck wrap gowns worn over trousers, and a white suit covered in crystals.

The Washington Winter Show was Washington, D.C.’s first social event of the new year. The Show, now in its 64th year, has always been a popular one with locals, in part because it benefits great local charities and because they always get a varied group of dealers. This year, the theme, “The Pleasure of Your Company: Elegant Entertaining with George and Martha Washington,” was accompanied by a loan exhibit of porcelain services, silver, and a harpsichord purchased by Washington in 1793 for his step-granddaughter Eleanor (Nelly) Parke Custis.

Ever wonder about how to get rid of those pesky crow’s feet starting to form around the corners of your eyes, but not sure what to do, where to go, or who to turn to for advice?

Tired of envying the wrinkle-free, immaculately contoured cheeks of “that girl” you often see, who always looks flawless and never seems to age? Curious about the prospect of freezing off burdensome fat (fat can be frozen away?!), but wary about whether the procedure might be right for you (or even safe)?

Look no further than Spotlyte at thespotlyte.com.

Owned and operated by Allergan (the maker of Botox Cosmetic) and launched in September 2018, Spotlyte is a new and innovative digital hub of expertly curated content that helps consumers discover how beauty and medical-

aesthetic treatments may fit into their routines. Spotlyte features thoughtfully researched editorial, product reviews, and insider profiles, coupled with the latest beauty news and trends.

The stars are telling you to be cold in a situation that involves a lover, and their reasoning for your iciness will be revealed once spring has sprung... > Clark Gable: February 1, 1901

You’re a predator, dear Leo, and you’ve marked your prey. Maybe you’ve been eyeing a mate, or maybe you’ve been hunting a job? Whatever you’re after, get ready to pounce. You’ve prepped the situation for success—it’s time to go in for the kill. May the odds be ever in your favor! > Mick Jagger: July 26, 1943

Pisces Feb. 19 to Mar. 20 You are ahead of the game. Rather than making resolutions to address in 2019, you resolved to prepare yourself for a new year—and a new you!—before January 1 so you could hit the ground running. Take advantage as others continue to catch their breath... > Elizabeth Taylor: February 27, 1932

Virgo Aug. 24 to Sept. 22 You committed to improving yourself as you made your resolutions for the new year, but you don’t know how to quit the old you. Perhaps the change you seek in yourself can be spurred by a change in environment. Join a new gym and go—if only to see who else is there. > Lauren Bacall: September 16, 1924

Aries Mar. 21 to Apr. 19 There was no place like home for the holidays, which means that leaving it behind doesn’t seem as merry or as bright. Stay connected, which means more than Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Call your parents or schedule a visit with a sibling. Trust us. > Doris Day: April 3, 1924

Libra Sept. 23 to Oct. 22 To everything there is a season (turn, turn, turn...) and, for you, this season isn’t a time to embrace, but a time to refrain from embracing.

Concentrate on yourself personally, like enhancing your career, and simply do you! You’ll reap the rewards for your focus in the spring. > Greer Garson: September 29, 1904

Taurus Apr. 20 to May 20 The market—well, the “meet” market—is bullish for you, dear Taurus. Now is not the time to cozy up in your apartment, whatever the weather. So march yourself to a bar with a buddy... Say hello to whomever catches your eye, and hello to a year of love! > Jack Nicholson: April 22, 1937

Scorpio Oct. 23 to Nov. 21 This is your year! You have some changes coming your way, and a number of well-deserved rewards.

New adventures yield exciting new opportunities so don’t overthink—act. Your partner in crime (a.k.a. your significant other) will teach you that there is a fun way to do everything. > Vivien Leigh: November 5, 1913

Gemini May 21 to June 20

Sagittarius Nov. 22 to Dec. 21

You have a problem with choosing, dear Gemini. Always have, always will. And you have made a couple of choices when it comes to love—choices that will prove to have been wrong. Your search for Mister or Miss Right?

Not even close to complete! > Marilyn Monroe: June 1, 1926

2019 is YOUR year in the biggest, boldest way imaginable. With your lucky ruler gracing your stars all year long, the sky is not even close to the limit. Dreams come true, opportunities flood your doorstep, and the blessings flow in faster than you can count them. Enjoy! > Frank Sinatra: December 12, 1915

/ WINTER 2019

Keep making plans for the weekend that you don’t intend to keep? Thought so. The stars are telling you to replace your flannel PJ wishes with caviar dreams in the hopes that you’ll meet someone while enjoying a night on the town.

And if not? Champers, baby. > Jerry Hall: July 2, 1956

When t he answer me ans t he world.
