A
s we step into spring, it’s with the utmost pleasure that I look back on a successful season. Every winter marks another year in Miami for Art Basel, and DuJour’s signature kickoff event did not disappoint. In celebration of our November digital cover star Sofia Richie, we partnered with WellNEST to host guests including Scott Disick, Karolina Kurkova and Jermaine Dupri at The Confidante Miami Beach. Guests sipped on Whispering Angel and superfood elixir “Basel Fuel,” created by chef Tricia Williams, a founding WellNEST practitioner along with Peder Regan and Rachel Paletsky Ash. Winter also marked a celebratory event with Zenith Watches CEO Julien Tornare to mark the launch of the brand’s Defy Collection. Along with good friend Swizz Beatz (who unveiled his own limited edition piece, the Defy El Primero 21 Swizz Beatz Edition Unique) we marked the beginning of a buzzworthy season with a timely celebration. Although one friendly face we’ll miss dearly at our events, and in life, is Harvey R. Blau. Though 2018 brings many exciting things, we’ve lost a dear friend, husband and father in Harvey. Awards season also brings out the best-of-the-best, and I pride myself and DuJour on always staying ahead of the curve when it comes to predicting the winners. Our lovely Winter 2017 cover star Diane Kruger absolutely stunned on our cover and on the stage at the 2018 Golden Globes, where she and director Fatih Akin accepted the award for Best Foreign Language Film. I look forward to summer as we launch DuJour Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, an expansion of our presence in the jewel of the Cape with tailored content that reflects the lifestyles and passions of our most aff luent readers. Adding to our existing east-towest footprints in resort markets like Aspen, Palm Beach and the Hamptons, DuJour Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard widens our reach where the nation’s most influential consumers reside and relax. These summer towns, after all, are a celebration of leisure and nautical glamour set against a backdrop of the region’s most prominent and talkedabout demographic. I also celebrated a big birthday—at 50 years young, I can’t think of a better group to spend it with than Team DuJour. I look forward to the friendly (and new) faces I see around town each day and can’t Jason Binn Twitter/Instagram: @jasonbinn wait to see what this season holds in store for us all.
