O

ffered at $68 million, a new home at 1859 Bel Air Road, in the iconic Bel Air enclave of Los Angeles, offers 20,000 square feet of luxury living that’s hard to compete with. The 1.6 acre property features an outdoor lanai, infinity pool and spa and lush landscaping. An eco-green living wall and a manicured pathway above a striking water feature encompass the 350-foot width of frontage and lead to a moment of arrival, peering above the clouds and extending to the views of the ocean, Catalina Island and the canyons from Bel Air. Designed by architectural firm Tag Front and interior designer César Giraldo, the house, developed by Sean Balakhani, itself boasts clean lines, geometric shapes and a contemporary design that exudes sophistication and elegance over its nine bedrooms, 10 baths and three powder rooms. Aside from top-of-the line materials and finishings, the home features state-of-the-art amenities, a playroom, theater, gym with TechnoGym equipment and a wine cellar for over 1,150 bottles. belair1859.com

e’re very excited to share our spring print issue starring Christina Ricci.

The second season of the hit Showtime series Yellowjackets returns March 24. In it, Ricci steals the show playing the adult Misty Quigley, a sociopathic nurse you oddly root for.

Also in the issue, we profile another wonderful actress, Connie Britton, who stole our hearts as Tami Taylor in Friday Night Lights and keeps stealing the show in Nashville and The White Lotus.

Christina Ohly Evans wrote about two Habitas properties (one in upstate New York and the other in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico), while Marshall Heyman journeyed to Kenya for our travel section.

We are so fortunate to work with talented pros like Royal Gilbert, Victoria Stevens and Jeffrey Westbrook on photo shoots that yielded stunning original imagery for our issue.

We hope you enjoy reading this issue as much as we did producing it.

he Spring print issue of DuJour showcases actress Christina Ricci.

She’s currently starring in the Netflix series Wednesday and will return for the highly anticipated season 2 of Showtime’s Yellowjackets on March 24. If you’re wondering why you’ve seen Ricci everywhere, Wednesday, now Netflix’s second most popular English-language television series ever, has amassed more than 1 billion hours viewed since its November release. Yellowjackets marked the second-most streamed series in Showtime’s history, so there is a lot to be excited about this spring.

On location at a stunning new Bel Air residence in Los Angeles, Royal Gilbert shot stunning and sexy images of Ricci, styled by Juliana Schiavinatto in the best of spring’s fashion looks and over-the-top jewelry.

Other stories to earmark include a feature on French perfumer Henry Jacques’ new haute fragrance collaboration with tennis star Rafael Nadal and his wife, Maria Francisca Perello, and Weekend Max Mara’s collection in conjunction with model Lily Aldridge.

Whether you’re wintering in Palm Beach or Aspen, DuJour’s award-winning team will be there to serve as your lifestyle guide Jason Binn Founder and CEO for all things fabulous. Here’s to another 10 remarkable years. DuJour Media: where Twitter/Instagram: @jasonbinn luxury will always live.

THE MAKING OF

LILY in SPRING

American model and philanthropist Lily Aldridge has partnered with Weekend Max Mara on a new capsule collection From Lily With Love is a collaboration between Weekend Max Mara and model and philanthropist Lily Aldridge. Inspired by her father, the English illustrator Alan Aldridge, the summery, vibrant collection embodies the brand’s Italian heritage and spirited joie de vivre. Aldridge, who grew up in Los Angeles, imbues her casual California bohemian spirit in the cool, easy pieces (think linen pantsuits, embroidered denim, patterned pajamas, billowing blouses and gauzy eyelet dresses). “This quite eclectic mix of pieces with a certain timelessness is a lot like me,” says Aldridge. “I wanted the collection to feel very light, bright and fun, with timeless pieces to add to your collection. It was meant to feel very 1970s, a nod to my rock ‘n’ roll side with a touch of elegance.” weekendmaxmara.com —NATASHA WOLFF

n All Intimacy is a fragrance collection created by bespoke French boutique perfumer Henry Jacques in collaboration with tennis star Rafael Nadal and his wife, Maria Francisca Perello, a first for both the brand and Nadal. The Mallorca-born couple, who have been together since they were teenagers, now share a six-monthold son. The three-scent collection—Maria Perello, Rafael Nadal No. 1 and Rafael Nadal No. 2—embodies the couple’s personalities and the fragrance house’s ethos.

“For me, it is important for my perfume to become part of my identity, to be recognizable and to perfectly match my personality,” says Perello. “I envisioned this fragrance as a sense of security, self-confidence, uniqueness, strength and completeness. I really wanted it to smell like elegance and, more importantly, happiness.”

For Perello’s soft, silky scent, she chose notes of violet, orange blossom, bergamot and jasmine, enhanced by sandalwood and white musk. For Rafael Nadal No. 1, coriander, thyme, violet, lavender, lemon and artemisia—a plant from the Mediterranean—are complemented by cedar, leather and sandalwood. “It is difficult to imagine my life without the Mediterranean Sea,” says Nadal. “I love its scent: the citrus, the freshness.” No. 2 features bergamot, jasmine, lilac, rose and white musk with notes of citrus, freesia and sandalwood.

“Meeting and spending time with Maria and Rafael to create their perfumes was a true pleasure and the beginning of a new chapter that the three of us wish to last,” says Henry Jacques CEO Anne-Lise Cremona. “Our encounter was about sharing emotions with great mutual trust, and above all a desire to share a beautiful story and ref lection of life that could be inspiring for many. That is what perfume is all about.” parfumshenryjacques.com ■

ew York City–based design studio D’Aquino Monaco (founded by Carl D’Aquino and Francine Monaco) was tapped for a full renovation of a duplex apartment in a 1920s building on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. The client is a frequent collaborator with the firm (they’re on their fourth project together).

“First and foremost, we need to understand who our client is,” says the firm’s design director, Dane Pressner. “Over the years, a trust has been built between us which allows us to continue to work together. The dialogue we have is particularly special, and there is so much respect for one another, which makes working together and the design process all the more fun.” This client and his grown children (when they’re in town) love to entertain, and this modern space is tailor-made for lively parties. He is an avid collector of contemporary art (David Salle, Richard Prince, Francesco Clemente and Raymond Pettibon, to name a few). Since hanging art on the walls and not having it compete with the interior designs was crucial here, the team used a variety of materials (plaster, lacquer, stucco, stone and grasscloth) on the walls to create tonal texture. “Some of the colors are bold, but there is an

overall serenity to the apartment which was important to achieve,” says Pressner. “As a firm, we love color, but that doesn’t always mean using bright, bold colors. For us, color needs to be used in a manner to evoke a feeling and lead one through the space, so here, color is used to punctuate space.”

The team didn’t want the apartment to feel like a stuffy uptown classic six apartment. Instead, they played around with scale and made it more loft-like. “Our client has spoken about bringing downtown uptown,” says Pressner. “There is a formality in its casualness. The furniture layout couldn’t be typical, and the collection of furniture and objects had to be exciting. There is always a nod to history in our work, and we love blending that with a more contemporary approach,” as in the Gio Ponti chairs juxtaposed with a Poltrona Frau sofa in the living room. ■

SPRING 2023

BY JEREMY KINSER PHOTOGRAPHY BY MONIK A LIS STYLED BY K ALLIE BIERSACH

f any young actor has cornered the market on bringing historic Black icons to cinematic life, it’s surely Kelvin Harrison Jr. Barely a decade into his professional acting career, the 28-year-old has already vividly portrayed blues great B.B. King in Baz Luhrmann’s Oscar-nominated fantasia Elvis and legendary activist Fred Hampton in Aaron Sorkin’s acclaimed The Trial of the Chicago 7, and will soon march across television screens as Martin Luther King Jr. in the forthcoming Disney +/National Geographic anthology series Genius: MLK/X. Next year, he’ll provide the voice for pre-villainous Taka (who later becomes the villain Scar) in Barry Jenkins’ highly anticipated prequel Mufasa: The Lion King. Later this year, he’ll offer his take on the short, tempestuous life of brilliant artist Jean-Michel Basquiat in a new film biopic titled Samo Lives.

“I don’t think about them as icons at all,” he says, seemingly taking these rare multidimensional characters he’s been assigned in

his stride. “Because at the end of the day, I still see them eat lunch and pick shit out of their teeth and they just seem like dudes.”

He insists he doesn’t feel the responsibility when portraying real men that he did with some of his earlier fictional roles in films, such as Luce and Waves, which first garnered him attention for his intense screen magnetism and versatility.

“I think the common denominator is the fact that they believed in themselves and they weren’t afraid of opposition,” he offers.

“They learned that adversity ultimately makes them stronger and more interesting and, ultimately, the individual always wins over conformity.”

As impressive as his résumé is (his debut was in the Oscarwinning 12 Years a Slave), consider his newest film, Chevalier (in theaters in April), in which he plays another real-life trailblazer. It’s a lush, sweeping historical epic in which Harrison delivers a captivating performance as Joseph Bologne, the 18th-century musical prodigy known as Chevalier de Saint-Georges but more commonly

referred to as the Black Mozart. The character offers a coveted role that required the actor to not only showcase his prowess with the violin but demonstrate precision fencing skills.

Fortunately for Harrison, he had previous experience with both the art and the sport that allowed him to nail the character. In director Joe Wright’s 2021 adaptation of Cyrano, he learned to wield a sword with expertise, although he shares that his grand fencing scene didn’t make the final cut. The romantic film also showcased his richly expressive singing voice.

“The first instrument I ever played was the violin, and I was pretty good when I was a kid,” Harrison recalls. “When Hurricane Katrina hit, the program that I was a part of was no longer there, so I stopped.”

His relationship with music didn’t end there, however; it’s in his blood, or at least absorbed through the walls of his childhood home. Born and raised in New Orleans, Harrison grew up in a musical household. His father was a popular music teacher who was close pals with Harry Connick Jr. and Wynton Marsalis.

Still, he decided to read everything he could find on Bologne to make his performance as credible as possible. He even showed up on set with binders filled with facts about the musician.

“Those details all matter when you’re trying to justify choices,” he says. “I made these big poster boards in the timeline so I would know what was happening when, but then I had to throw it out the window and just start to create a person, because, ultimately, it is not really active to act history.”

After considering several promising young actors for the film, director Stephen Williams was confident Harrison was the ideal choice.

“Once Kelvin had a sense of how he wanted to tackle the role, he dedicated himself tirelessly to peeling back the layers of the character in a uniquely compelling way,” Williams recalls. “I truly believe that he is the only actor who could have pulled off all that we asked of him for this film.”

It’s as if his previous roles have led to this pivotal film, particularly his brief but dazzling turn as King in Elvis, Luhrmann’s

flamboyant take on the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. It’s a film that he was thrilled to be a part of. “Baz is a firecracker,” Harrison shares. “When he speaks, pretty colors come out and you just get moved by anything that’s happening on that set.”

Many actors would be intimidated by playing Martin Luther King Jr., but Harrison says he wasn’t interested in playing the late activist as the iconic figure he’s become. He prefers to convey the man before the heroic character history has made him.

“I can’t play the Time magazine covers or the Nobel Peace Prize,” he says. “All I can do is breathe and go, ‘Well, how do I take care of my kids? How do I make sure my wife feels safe? How do I make sure my people feel seen?’ and make sure they have a sense of somebodiness.”

Still, the gravitas required to play such a mythic man must weigh on an actor.

“The biggest thing that I’ve learned from all of these men is being reminded to never try to fit into a mold, but always do something because it’s coming from the purest place of my heart,” he says. “I’m genuinely interested in sharing that and not trying to preach to the public.”

As for his own private life, it surely can’t be all work and zero play for this busiest of young actors. In 2020, while promoting the guiltiest pleasure on his CV, The High Note, Harrison told an interviewer that he wanted “to explore sexuality and sensuality.” Asked about his current relationship status, he laughs and offers a vague response.

“Oh, you’re getting to the juicy stuff,” at which point his publicist asks him to skip this question. The guy is always moving on to the next subject, even in real life.

It’s intriguing to wonder where Harrison will go from here, having already portrayed many of the most dynamic characters any actor could hope for. Harrison longs for a rest.

“I’m well beyond what I could have dreamt of, and so now I’m just trying to work on sleeping more so I can dream more stuff and have something new to bring to the table before I burn out,” he says. “I’m already doing stuff that I just couldn’t believe I’d get the chance to do, and I’m blown away by the experiences. I’m just going to ride that wave.” ■

Pablo Picasso’s relationship with his adopted homeland of France wasn’t always so picture-perfect

Picasso in Place Ravignan in Montmartre, 1904

the poet. “The day after I saw you and we spent the evening together, my creditor told me I could have some more money [ . . . ] I’m in Paris, with 2 silver francs in my pocket. I’ve been here for two days.

I’m starving and homeless. I don’t even have a shirt anymore, because all my luggage has been held back at the Hôtel Terminus in Nice, where I wasn’t able to pay for my room.”

On April 7, 1907, in another letter to Apollinaire, the rogue continued his wheedling. “My dear friend, Amazing news: I will be married at the end of this month,” he lied. “My fiancée is a tobacco dealer, and I met her barely three weeks ago [...]. I sacrificed myself on the altar of her charms, putting my life in the balance. But this is why I am writing to you: Annette asked me for her engagement present and, for the moment, I barely have two louis to rub together—and I need those for clothes. I wanted you to ask dear Piccasso [sic] to quickly paint me something good so you could send it to me before October 25. You can tell Piccasso that I’ll pay him 175 francs for his painting in May. I plan to spend my honeymoon in Paris. I also firmly intend to spend one night in the rats’ asylum to taste the horror one last time.” This was how “Piccasso,” in his obsessive quest for powerful objects from other places, unwittingly became a fence for stolen goods. Needless to say, he did not produce the requested painting, but he did buy those two Iberian statues from Piéret (who remained very discreet about their provenance) for 50 francs. Not only did those statues

A

t the time, Picasso was working to develop his own voice, exploring all avenues of possibility. In March 1907, at the Salon des Indépendants, he stopped in front of Matisse’s “Blue Nude (Souvenir de Biskra)” with its crosshatching, its powerful, distorted thighs; he carefully examined Derain’s “Bathers” with its three sculptural, mysterious, geometric bodies against a blue background. During the same period, following letter after letter filled with reproaches, anger, sadness, frustration, and demands, María Picasso y Lopez suddenly changed her tone: “My dear son Pablo: I’ve just received your letter and I am thrilled to the bottom of my heart that you are well and that you are planning to paint a large canvas . . .” Even though all he mentioned was the extraordinary size of the painting (which would become “Les Demoiselles d’Avignon”), it is interesting that Picasso should tell his family about this colossal new project. “Even if I know what I’m saying is a little exaggerated, I know that you are the best,” his mother would write adoringly a few months later.

To support the monumental undertaking of this “large canvas,” Apollinaire too would become involved, feeding Picasso’s passion for primitive art by helping him to acquire “two stone sculptures from the Hispano-Roman period, a man’s head with short strands of hair, and a woman’s head with a veil, her ears covered with circular tresses”; two “Iberian heads” very similar to the ones Picasso had admired in Room 7 of the Louvre. This was how the two friends became caught up in a fantastical, compromising episode that could also have been highly dangerous in such difficult times for foreigners. It was the introduction of a third person—Géry Piéret, a schemer and criminal whom Apollinaire had hired out of kindness not long before as his “secretary and factotum”—that led them into this situation. It is hard to imagine a more bizarre scenario: Picasso, obsessed by his quest for a new form of art; Apollinaire, naively employing a “secretary” he doesn’t dare fire, who turns out to be a crook prepared to do anything to pay back his gambling debts, including hoodwinking these two creative types. “My poor Kostro, I’m in the most awful situation imaginable,” the conman wrote to

Now celebrated as one of France’s leading figures, Picasso faced a triple stigma when he first arrived in the country from Spain as an unknown artist: Placed under police surveillance as a foreigner, he was soon labeled a political radical and, as a leader of the avantgarde, excluded from the French cultural establishment. In this excerpt, Picasso and his friend, the poet Guillaume Apollinaire, are unwittingly ensnared in a situation that could prove catastrophic for two foreigners on French soil: a case of art theft.

influence what André Malraux later called his “exorcism painting,” but he would keep them with him for the next four years.

It was during the summer of 1911 that the case took a critical turn. To be more precise, it was on August 28, when the theft of the “Mona Lisa,” the Louvre’s most famous artwork, sent the Sureté Générale and the whole of official France into turmoil—from police chiefs to gendarmes to customs officers. That same day, Paris-Journal offered a reward to anyone who returned the “Mona Lisa.” At that point, Apollinaire’s former “secretary” resurfaced, drawn by the lure of money. He brought the newspaper’s editors some sculptures that he had stolen from the Louvre four years earlier. The news made headlines. When Apollinaire saw Piéret’s name in the papers, along with the crime he’d committed, he realized the danger they were in and wrote to Picasso, urging him to return from Céret, where he was painting at the time. Picasso hastily rejoined his friend in Paris.

“They went out to try and drown those compromising statues in the Seine,” Fernande Olivier recounted, “but their nerve failed.

They had the feeling that the policemen patrolling the riverbanks were eyeing them suspiciously.” Olivier went on to describe that terrifying night that the two friends spent under the same roof. “In the end, unsure how to fill the long hours of the night that they’d decided to spend together for safety, they began playing cards, the pair of them looking like fugitives and talking about the tragic possibility of being expelled from France as undesirables,” she remembered. Because that was precisely the risk they ran as foreigners—a Russian citizen and a Spanish citizen—whose presence was only “tolerated” in France. “I can still see them now: two contrite, frightened children, thinking about fleeing abroad.”

The investigation continued and, on September 7, the police searched Apollinaire’s home. They came with an arrest warrant for his complicity in the theft; they suspected that he was the leader of a gang of international thieves. Incarcerated in the Prison de la Santé, where he was kept in isolation, Apollinaire sent a telegram to his lawyer, José Théry: “Very serious case—Come—Ask for Judge Drioux—Have named you my lawyer.” Despite all the precautions taken by Apollinaire and Picasso, the press soon sensed a scoop.

“In the evening, it was stated that the foreigner was none other than Mr. Guillaume Krostrowisky [sic], secretary to Mr. Guillaume Apollinaire, man of letters, both of whom reside at 37 Rue Gros,” wrote the reporter from the Petit Journal. “Since the Sureté Générale and the public prosecutor’s department refused to provide any information on the case, we asked a high-ranking figure at the police headquarters if the arrested Russian subject was indeed Mr. Guillaume Kostrowisky, and our informant replied in the affirmative.” The next day, another article in the same newspaper declared: “The judges [suspected] an international crime gang that had come to France to steal from museums. The Russian was placed under arrest and, after a preliminary interrogation, was sent to the Prison de la Santé under a committal order [...]. In fact, Mr. Guillaume Kostrowisky, known in the world of arts and letters under the pseudonym Apollinaire, is not Russian but Polish.”

Russian? Polish? Who cares! He was a foreigner, a fact that immediately led to the suspicion of “an international crime gang that had come to France to rob from museums,” and that transformed an embarrassing situation—two friends manipulated by a con man—into a potentially dangerous situation. The poet and the artist would emerge from this event terrified, and would act in an increasingly cautious manner thereafter. “For a long time, Picasso and Apollinaire thought they were being followed,” recalled Fernande Olivier. “Picasso would only go out at night in a taxi, and he would change taxis several times to throw his ‘pursuers’ off the scent.” The artist would return the statues, and from that day on Apollinaire did all he could to be naturalized as a Frenchman. As for the Picasso police file, it contains the following handwritten note: “In September 1911, Picasso, Pablo Ruiz was interviewed on the subject of the statuettes that were in his possession and that had been stolen from the Louvre by a third party.” Apollinaire was apparently exonerated for his involvement in the case. And strangely, even if Picasso too was interviewed by the police, the incident was never referred to again in his file. In any case, he had already discovered the best way to protect himself: he worked. ■

n this day and age, it’s so rare to have a personal touch in anything, and that’s especially true in the world of travel.

We mostly just ask our friends of friends for lists of places to go at a specific destination, and then we’re off. But that’s not always so easy when you’re going some place far flung, like Kenya, a location that’s easier to visit from the East Coast thanks to direct f lights from JFK to Nairobi on Kenya Airways.

To organize an itinerary in Kenya, we used Extraordinary Journeys (extraordinaryjourneys.com), founded by mother-and-daughter team Marcia and Elizabeth Gordon. They prepare you for anything and everything you need based on your interests—with that very specific attention that means there’s always someone on the other end of the line. One of the amazing things about Extraordinary Journeys is that they make travel a little bit analog in this speedy digital age. Even though they’ve already sent you your itinerary via PDF, they’ll send you a personalized travel pamphlet to accompany you on your trip.

Extraordinary Journeys first sent us to Hemingways Eden (hemingways-collection.com), a stunning hotel in the Karen area of Nairobi that was once the home of Anna Trzebinski, a fashion designer and tastemaker based in Kenya. The private and public spaces here are especially impressive thanks to Trzebinski’s

amazing eye for detail—including a pond lit with Christmas lights that makes you feel you’re in a magical land.

Before leaving Nairobi, we had amazing farm-to-table food at Cultiva, an all-day restaurant opened by owner Ariel Moscardi that has only grown since the pandemic. The pizza—yes, African pizza— is especially delicious—and Moscardi, who hails from Ecuador, has big plans to diversify the property, so follow him on Instagram.

We were then sent to Ol Lentille (ol-lentille.com), a luxury safari lodge a short plane ride away in Laikipia with four distinct villas that can accommodate different-sized parties. Ol Lentille isn’t necessarily a big game lodge, though you will see giraffes, elephants and other animals. Activities are the focus here: donkey rides, long hikes, quad bike driving. The place has a homey authenticity that makes you truly appreciate the environment.

Trzebinski has recently been focused on other far-flung Kenyan adventures, in particular a magical property she calls Jannah Lamu, with several beautifully equipped floor-through residences in Lamu, a small town on an island just off the northern coast of Kenya. Lamu is a special place—one better left experienced than written about.

your fellow guests. The benefit is the opportunity to share this bucket list experience not just with the nearest and dearest in your party, but also with all of the new friends you meet along the way.

Mahali Mzuri, which translates to “beautiful place” in Swahili, is the kind of magical environment where you inevitably make new friends. It’s inherent in the ethos of Branson’s camp, which emphasizes sustainability and conservation. Beyond working with Maasai communities to find employees and guides for the resort, Mahali Mzuri also supports the Maa Trust, a Kenyan organization that focuses on improving life in the area. For the last several years, a percentage of every guest’s stay has been donated to help build, fund and grow a nearby school for local children, the Enkenju Enkoirien Primary School, about 2.5 miles away from camp.

Of course, the main event at Mahali Mzuri is game viewing.

Peak viewing happens during migration season, which lasts from the middle of June until the end of October. This is when 1 million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebras, gazelles and other animals journey about 1,000 miles through Tanzania and Kenya and cross the Mara River. You can experience it on drives, of

That’s the aim of Mahali Mzuri, a simultaneously luxurious and rustic Kenyan safari camp owned by Sir Richard Branson situated within the 30,000-plus acres of Olare Motorogi Conservancy in the Maasai Mara ecosystem.

Located some 150 miles west of Nairobi and accessible via scheduled and charter planes out of Nairobi’s Wilson Airport or, even more conveniently, helicopter, Mahali Mzuri is intended to be intimate, familiar and familial. Twelve tents—all outfitted with more than the bare necessities, including Wi-Fi and a special Mahali Mzuri rubber ducky—can sleep a maximum of 24, and the staff, along with general manager Wilson Odhiambo, will certainly make you feel at home.

You will likely cross paths, eat a meal, watch the World Cup late at night at the bar, have a locally sourced cocktail or spot lions with

Some people make a habit of going on safari regularly, in the same way that others trek annually to Aspen to ski, Paris to shop or Miami or Austin to eat at Uchi. For many, though, an African safari is once-in-a-lifetime. Whenever you raise the possibility with friends, you’ll often hear that it’s a “bucket list trip.”

So, if you’re going to take a bucket list trip, you might as well go to a bucket list kind of place, right?

course, but also from the deck of your very own tent or sitting around a fire pit in one of the camp’s communal areas.

In less hectic times, you’ll still experience Kenyan nature at its most primal and awe-inspiring. On daily morning and afternoon drives with Mahali Mzuri guides in beautifully outfitted Toyota 4Runners, you’ll come across at least four of the Big Five game animals—namely lions, elephants, leopards and buffalo. (The fifth, the black rhinoceros, is critically endangered.) This is on top of giraffes, hyenas, hippos and any number of birds and other animals native to the area.

Encounters with wildlife don’t only come on these drives.

Sometimes, animals will visit your tent to say hello or walk alongside you to dinner. (Don’t worry, there is always a hotel staff member to accompany you back to your tent.) Some nights you might wake before sunrise to the surprisingly loud gossip of very chatty baboons.

But at that point, you can just lay in bed and listen until you fall asleep with the hot water bottle left for you under the covers each evening. If you bring any tradition of Mahali Mzuri back with you, it might just end up being that nightly hot water bottle. A bracelet made with local Maasai beads might remind you of your trip, but that hot water bottle will remind you of the homey comforts of this “beautiful place.” virginlimitededition.com ■

L’ O S C A R L O N D O N The name of this 39-room boutique hotel in Bloomsbury is an homage to the great Irish writer and dramatist Oscar Wilde. The Picture of Dorian Gray author would certainly approve of its elegant state with impeccable, personalized service. The building, built between 1901 and 1903, was originally the headquarters of the London Baptist Church. Its high plastered ceilings, carved fireplaces and oak paneling have been amplified by architect Jacques Garcia, the first time he has designed a hotel in the city. The emphasis is on comfortable decadence, no doubt a Wildean way of life. The rooms are all different, with a shared attention to extravagant detail, high ceilings and large windows. Wilde would have loved the irony of the location of the hotel’s main lounge, the purple-hued Baptist Bar—it was once the chapel of the Baptist Church. loscarlondon.com

H

aving worked as an actress since she was 8 years old, Christina Ricci has had her share of breakout moments.

Like as a tiny backup singer and dancer behind Cher in the music video of “The Shoop Shoop Song (It’s in His Kiss),” from the soundtrack of her film debut, the 1990 movie Mermaids. Or as disgruntled camper Wednesday Addams torturing camp counselor Christine Baranski in Addams Family Values—camp being the operative word here. As the steadfast lover to Charlize Theron’s serial killer Aileen Wuornos in the 2003 film Monster. As a nymphomaniac chained to a radiator in 2006’s controversial Black Snake Moan. As 19th-century ax murderer Lizzie Borden in The Lizzie Borden Chronicles, which earned her a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination in 2016.

And it just so happens that Ricci is breaking out again, this time in the hit series Yellowjackets, which returns to Showtime this spring. She plays Misty Quigley, a nurse whose behavior tends more sociopathic than empathetic. (She moonlights as an armchair internet sleuth.) Misty becomes caught up in a mystery related to her past, when her high school soccer team was involved in a deadly plane crash.

Critics have gone wild for Ricci’s performance. Just some of the headlines include “Misty Quigley Is Terrifying and Fascinating,”

“In Defense of Misty Quigley, Yellowjackets’ Unsung Heroine” and “How Misty Quigley Became Yellowjackets’ Best Character.”

The Yellowjackets producers “came to me with this part,” says Ricci, who didn’t know much about Misty except for a short, poppy scene in the pilot. “But I read it and was super, super excited.”

“We can’t imagine anyone else in this role,” say series creators Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson. “We always knew that Misty needed to be played by an actress with both amazing comedic timing and incredible depth and humanity. It would have been all too easy for her to become a caricature, as opposed to a flesh-and-blood human for whom we can feel empathy, even as she says and does wild, unthinkable things. Luckily, Christina has an incredible ability to find the truth in even the most heightened circumstances.”

Another actress might be insulted by being recruited to play a psychopath. Not Ricci.

“It’s f lattering. I’m very intrigued by people’s behavior who seem to be on the fringe, who don’t react like the norm,” Ricci says.

“When someone comes to you and says, ‘This is a really strange character. Nobody seems to get her. Can you use your insight and intelligence to figure her out?’ I think it means I have an understanding of humanity and an observational ability. I’m proud of that. I enjoy playing characters that if you didn’t have a sideways way into it, you wouldn’t be able to do it.”

If you met her in real life, “you’d stay as far away from Misty as possible,” Ricci continues. She believes audiences have responded so positively to the character because “she’s so socially inept, and I think that’s funny to people.” Also, because she’s just a character in a television series, “we don’t really have to deal with her in person.”

Ricci also appears in the Netf lix hit Wednesday, a contemporary spin on the character she so memorably played in the early 1990s. Jenna Ortega now plays Wednesday, while Ricci stars as her “normie” teacher, Marilyn Thornhill, who may not be exactly who she claims to be.

Ricci joined the series when there were only four episodes left to shoot. “I wasn’t hesitant at all. It was fun to be a part of the next generation of Wednesday Addams,” she explains. “And I love Tim [Burton] so much.” (Burton is an executive producer on Wednesday and directed four of the episodes. He and Ricci worked together on the 1999 movie Sleepy Hollow.)

Ricci thinks that people respond to her and Ortega’s Wednesday because they both have “so much integrity and are unwilling to bend to societal pressures. That’s really wonderful, especially in a little girl.” Audiences can live vicariously, she says, “and truly be themselves.”

Playing Wednesday Addams in her childhood was particularly important for Ricci, she says. “It made me aware that I could play characters I wouldn’t have to sacrifice myself for. I never liked the typical family fare. I never liked the kid who had to smile constantly

“I’m glad I waited,” says Ricci of choosing to have a second child. “I would feel so much guilt if I wasn’t fully attentive to her.

When [Freddie] was younger, I gave him full attention. He got to have that special babyhood and childhood, and now he’s able to help with his sister. There’s not a lot of jealousy. He loves her.”

Freddie is now around the age Ricci was when her star began to rise, and he has a little bit of the acting bug. “Yes, he’s interested in acting, and I’m a believer that if a kid really wants to do it, and they’re being supported instead of being pushed, then they should be able to,” Ricci explains. “I see a lot of how I was in him. I know that he would be totally capable of being a child actor, but I’ve told him that there’s no one to take him. You have to take your child to auditions. You have to take them to set. I can’t do that.”

For now, Freddie has made due with watching his mom’s past performances, including as the original Wednesday and on Wednesday. “He loved it so much,” Ricci says. “He’s really proud of me. He always asks, ‘How did they do this scene?’ and ‘How did they do that sort of thing?’ I think it’s funny.”

The first time Freddie visited her on the Yellowjackets set, he wanted to watch the first season of the show, which has its share of gore and thrills. “I fast-forwarded through all the inappropriate parts,” Ricci laughs. “He has a lot of questions. He always needs me to tell him what happens, and he peppers me with nonstop—what do they call them?—fan theories.”

Most of the questions, of course, Ricci doesn’t know the answers to. “I suggested he go sit down with one of the writers and ask them,” she says.

The truth is, sometimes Ricci only reads the Yellowjackets scenes that involve the present-day characters and skims the rest.

She doesn’t get to see a lot of the show being shot, and she likes to watch the episodes and be surprised. “I do enjoy watching it as an audience member. It’s really fun,” Ricci says. “Though my son tells me not to skim.”

Ricci is not surprised that, after more than 30 years, she continues to work steadily in film and television. “There’s always work to be found,” she says. “It’s my job. I’ve always supported myself and my family, and it feels more like my job than ‘I get to do a special project and then go back to my life.’”

That said, the success of Yellowjackets and our cultural obsession with Misty wasn’t something she had in her sightlines.

“I never would have predicted this,” Ricci says. “But I also never try to guess.” ■

and be fake and phony. To know that there was an option for me filled me with hope. I think a lot of people have felt like they were outsiders in different parts of their lives. They’ve felt lonely, like nobody understands them.”

Now 43 and the mom of two kids, Ricci does admit, “I’m not a typical person.”

“I can’t join groups,” she says. “I never agree. I have specific interests and feelings. My take will always be different. I’m very comfortable with it. I don’t need people to agree with me to be friends with them.”

Ricci continues, “I’ll always be the one that doesn’t like the person everyone else likes.” People tend not to ask her feelings about new movies and television shows. “They know I won’t give my opinion, because it’s always the opposite. My tastes differ. Usually it’s me not liking other things that people like.”

It just so happens that Ricci, who has about an hour a day to watch television, is currently enjoying HBO’s The Last of Us, which most people do, generally, seem to like. “OK, sometimes I do love things that everybody else likes,” she says.

As for the group thing, Ricci says she’s more of a “one-on-one friend. Most of my friends don’t know each other.” When I ask if she’s in a book club—Ricci starred as Zelda Fitzgerald in Amazon Prime’s Z: The Beginning of Everything, which she also produced—she responds quickly, “God, no.” (Recent favorite reads, though, include Circe by Madeline Miller and a collection of Shirley Jackson stories.)

That said, R icci has found great camaraderie in her Yellowjackets cast, which also includes Hollywood lifers Juliette Lewis and Melanie Lynskey.

“This has been a great on-set experience. We all really, really love each other a lot,” Ricci says. “I’ve never been so close with people I’ve worked with. We’ve all been through similar things. We all share stories between set-ups. We bullshit. It’s great.”

Ricci thinks the closeness comes from being older “and not in our confusing, emotion-filled twenties. When you’re older, you settle a bit.”

“We’re all friends working on projects. We all support each other. We really want the best for the show,” she continues. “We’ve all been through similar things. A lot of us have kids.”

The support has been especially important because shooting season two in Vancouver, far from her family in Los Angeles, wasn’t the easiest. Ricci has an 8-year-old son, Freddie, from her first marriage, and a 14-month-old daughter, Cleopatra, from her second, to Los Angeles hairstylist Mark Hampton.

GREAT BRITTON THE EMMY-NOMINATED ACTRESS RETURNS WITH DEAR EDWARD, BASED ON THE BESTSELLING BOOK, NOW STREAMING ON APPLE TV+ BY

CHRISTINA OHLY EVANS PHOTOGR APHY BY

VICTORIA STEVENS ST YLING BY

JEANANN WILLIAMS

STAR OF FILM AND TELEVISION—NOT TO MENTION

five-time Emmy nominee—Connie Britton is back with the dramatic Apple TV+ series Dear Edward. The 10-episode drama based on the bestselling novel by Ann Napolitano reunites Britton with her Friday Night Lights showrunner and friend, Jason Katims. It tells the story of a horrific plane crash and its lone 12-year-old survivor, Edward Adler, who is deftly played by newcomer Colin O’Brien.

Best known for her leading roles on Nashville, American Horror Story, The White Lotus and, of course, her portrayal of Tami Taylor, the small-town Texas football coach’s wife in Friday Night Lights, Britton’s latest turn is part wealthy New Jersey suburbanite and part compassionate mother figure. Katims knew right away he wanted Britton to play the widowed Dee Dee, an affluent housewife afflicted by tragedy and family secrets. “I couldn’t imagine any other actress in the role,” says Katims. “She can make you laugh and cry at the same moment. I so admire her ability to be out-of-her-mind funny and the next second fighting tears—and we’re fighting tears with her.” And the tears are in plentiful supply here.

“Connie has this way of transforming into a role, and from the minute we rolled, my jaw dropped,” says Katims. “She was 1000% Dee Dee, and Dee Dee is nothing like Tami. She has created a character that is so unique and just delightful. It’s a beautiful thing to watch.” DuJour talked with Britton about the new drama series.

THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF GRIEF IN THE WORLD,

PARTICULARLY IN THE PAST FEW

YEARS, AND I HOPE THIS SHOW SPARKS MANY CONVERSATIONS

ABOUT DEALING WITH IT.

The ensemble cast of Dear Edward feels like a family. Were lasting relationships formed during filming?

I had met Taylor Schilling a few times [before], but we had never worked together before and I didn’t know the others. Interestingly, the way we shot the different storylines meant that we would shoot our parts separately, and then come together only for the group scenes, such as the grief therapy sessions. It was so fun to get to know each other and compare notes during those scenes. This feeling of cohesiveness is a real testament to editors, because it feels like we are all so close, but I didn’t get to see a lot of these onscreen relationships until I actually watched the show!

What’s next for you?

I have a production company, and so we are always busy with projects in development and trying to create shows that I would like to put out into the world. I just finished shooting a movie called Winner, which is the incredible story of Reality Winner, a decorated member of the Air Force and former intelligence contractor.

She received the longest sentence in history of anyone [convicted] under the Espionage Act. I play her mother, Billie, who was her greatest advocate. I also create space between projects to be a mom. I’m really selective about when I travel now, as I like to be hands-on. ■

SPRING 2023

When and where did you film?

We shot in late March through July 2022 in New York City and upstate in Nyack. I love the city, personally, but I also think it’s a wonderful setting for this story. The shooting schedule was the hardest part for me, because I live in L.A. and my son, Eyob, just turned 12. He was entrenched in school and so I couldn’t leave for long, extended chunks of time. This character was such a joy to play that the whole shoot was a very specific and wonderful experience.

What specifically do you hope the audience takes away from Dear Edward?

I have found that in our culture, and having gone through grief myself, people just don’t know what to say. We don’t have a cultural language that helps to support us when we’re dealing with grief. I hope people can find the commonality of our shared experiences with grief. We can support each other and lift each other up through it if we are given the tools. It’s an important time for this conversation. In addition to sadness, there is also such an uplifting and hopeful piece of this show. It’s about resilience and the will to keep going, which is a fundamental human spirit. We have such a great opportunity as storytellers to show all of these different aspects of what it is to be human.

125

Were you familiar with the story?

The character I play—Dee Dee—wasn’t in the original book by Ann Napolitano. She was Jason’s brainchild, and it was exciting to be a part of creating this new character from the ground up. The subject matter is just so heart-wrenching—how do you make it dramatic yet relatable to audiences, versus making them suffer through? The audience becomes a part of the story and gets invested in seeing these characters work through tragedy.

How do you feel about binge-watching a series versus spreading it out?

I am old-school, so I like the idea of something coming out once a week and having appointment television, something to look forward to. I love the serialized aspect and watching these characters grow over time. If you spread out the storytelling, it enhances that.

It creates space for conversation from one week to the next. I hope that Dear Edward helps to give people language around grief.

There has been a lot of grief in the world, particularly in the past few years, and I hope this show sparks many conversations about dealing with it.

DUJOUR.COM

What drew you to this latest project?

It was completely Jason Katims. I am at a point in my life where I just want to work with people that I like and trust. I am so fortunate that I have developed these wonderful relationships with various people that I love to collaborate with, so when they call, I answer the phone. It has to be the right time to work together again, and this was just the perfect moment.

IN VINO VERITAS

Transformed by Studio Heimat (former alums of notable San Francisco designer Ken Fulk), the newly opened Eco Terreno Wines & Vineyards Urban Tasting Room in North Beach’s Jackson Square features three stories including an underground supper club, Lyon & Swan. “Our inspiration for the space originated from the biodynamic land and farming practices of Eco Terreno Wines and Vineyards in Sonoma,” says Heimat principal designer Eva Bradley. “After seeing the farm for ourselves, we knew it was important to take that raw beauty and manifest the soul of the land into an elevated space for the city that still related back to the vineyards.”

With large windows overlooking busy Columbus Avenue, the green-and-burgundy-hued tasting room is serene and sophisticated with wood floors and accents. “Even though Sonoma is close to San Francisco, a trip to the wine country requires a lot of time,” says Mark Lyon, founder and owner of Eco Terreno Wines and Vineyards. “That’s why we decided to bring the essence of our Alexander Valley farm to the city.” ecoterreno.com — JENNIE NUNN PHOTOGRAPHY BY FRANK FRANCES

DISAPPEARING ACTS On view through June 12 at The Art Institute of Chicago is an exhibition of Spanish artist Salvador Dalí entitled Salvador Dalí: The Image Disappears.

Featuring icons of the Art Institute’s surrealism collection—including “Inventions of the Monsters” (1937), “Venus de Milo with Drawers” (1936) and “Mae West’s Face Which May be Used as a Surrealist Apartment” (1934–35)— the exhibition of 24 paintings, drawings and objects explores a series of “disappearing acts” undertaken by the artist at the height of his fame in the 1930s. Dalí cultivated these notions in a variety of ways: in path-breaking experiments with materials and palette, in depictions of exotic and mundane edible items, in surrealist fashions and sculptures with spaces for hiding and in optically dynamic visual illusions or “double images.” artic.edu

ith properties in Namibia, Saudi Arabia and Mexico, sustainability-focused hospitality brand Habitas has chosen the bucolic Hudson Valley for its first North American hotel project.

With a loyal clientele in search of a “luxury for the soul” approach to leisure, Habitas has established itself as the arbiter of laid-back luxe (think natural wood, breezy linen curtains and yoga classes galore). Its new Rhinebeck location promises to be a great addition to the portfolio. The group is sticking with a home-away-from-home vibe for Habitas on Hudson, a boutique bolthole that’s set in a neo-baroque manor house and the adjacent Lodge and Stonehouse, with 30 accommodations ranging from rooms to spacious suites with expansive outdoor terraces. The palette is neutral, with blond wood, greige throws, stone accents and Akari lanterns contrasted with brilliant pops of color such as fuchsia curtains that only enhance the chic-simple atmosphere. With a great center hall and a convivial dining area, the restaurant promises to be a local gathering spot with a fully stocked, help-yourself SMEG refrigerator and a casual center aisle and bar that’s perfect for morning cappuccino or an aprés-ski snack.

A limited-yet-delicious menu offers hipster favorites such as a vegan poke bowl and a perfect burger on brioche. Best of all, however, is the cozy red bar, The Pub at Social, that highlights local makers and serious craft cocktails. Just two hours from New York City by car or train, Habitas on Hudson is a serene escape that’s well suited to house parties, foodies and lovers of upstate New York and hiking in general. It is not, however, well suited to kids, so best to leave the little ones at home. ourhabitas.com

One exciting recent development is the reopening of the Breakers Rees Jones Course after an extensive renovation. Located at Breakers West Country Club, this championship course has been artfully remodeled to offer improved playability for golfers of all skill levels. This namesake course was originally built in 1968 and was previously updated by Jones in 2004, who also redesigned the resort’s sister course, the Breakers Ocean Course, in 2018. The Breakers is also home to the John Webster Golf Academy, which provides year-round, player-centered golf instruction, state-ofthe-art learning centers, personalized fitness evaluations and custom club fittings.

French beauty brand Guerlain has reopened its boutique at the Shops at the Breakers, which now showcases the Maison’s exclusive Haute Parfumerie.

Skincare entrepreneur April Gargiulo proves that slow and steady wins the race

A

April Gargiulo in the vineyards

pril Gargiulo, founder of Vintner’s Daughter, struggled with her skin her entire life. Acne, discoloration, you name it—and she tried all the luxury products she read about in glossy magazines. She was alarmed to learn that these products had very little active ingredients and a lot of filler. “This was the genesis of Vintner’s Daughter,” explains the Napa Valley native, whose family founded Gargiulo Vineyards in Oakville in 1992. “I wanted to build a true luxury skincare company that made products from the finest ingredients in the world, using time-honored techniques. I wanted to build a skincare company on the very same philosophical foundations and principles as fine winemaking.” She was and remains passionate about marrying her passion for winemaking with her desire to create the finest skincare products. Their signature Phyto Radiance Infusion of nutrient-dense botanicals (including nettle, alfalfa, calendula, dandelion and lavender) is present in the brand’s two hero products: Active Botanical Serum and Active Treatment Essence.

The brand’s third product, Active Renewal Cleanser, has just debuted after three years of development. In a sea of brands that release a new product every month and expand into new categories annually, Vintner’s Daughter has been methodical and slow about how it launches these game-changing products. “Of course, creating product after product increases your sales, but we are not driven by revenue; we are driven by integrity and skin health,” says Gargiulo. vintnersdaughter.com

t’s been 70 years since we’ve witnessed the coronation of a British royal. In 1953, Queen Elizabeth II set out to modernize the historic ritual and bring it into the 20th century by inviting the world into Westminster Abbey via their televisions.

The ceremony is full of symbolism and relics, including St. Edward’s Crown, made in 1661 for King Charles II. For King Charles III’s coronation this May, the ceremony will again be updated.

During the coronation, a hollow golden orb is placed in the right hand of the new monarch. A type of globus cruciger, the Sovereign’s Orb represents the sovereign’s power and is meant to remind the monarch that their power is derived from God. It is topped with a cross set with pearls, diamonds, a sapphire and an emerald. Bands of diamonds, sapphires, rubies and pearls divide the globe into three sections to represent the three known continents at the time it was designed by Sir Robert Vyner, the royal goldsmith, in 1661.

The Sovereign’s Sceptre with cross is one of the scepters used during the ceremony, and it symbolizes the king’s temporal power and good governance. Made in 1661 by Vyner, it was later modified to include the Cullinan I diamond, also known as the Great Star of Africa. The diamond is the largest cut colorless diamond in the world, weighing in at 530.2 carats. The rest of the scepter contains dozens of diamonds, emeralds, amethysts, rubies and spinels all set on a glittering gold rod.

The code name for King Charles III’s coronation is Operation Golden Orb. It is said the future monarch wants the event to represent a “modern 21st-century monarchy.” We will have to wait and see what changes will be made to the traditions of the nearly 1,000-year-old ceremony.
