COVER STORY

he name “Vanessa” means “butterfly” in Greek and in Latin, “of Venus.” Vanessa Hudgens is living up to both definitions as she bids farewell to her second decade and emerges from a cocoon of uncertainty to embrace a new era of career clarity and self-love.

When we first chat, her 30th birthday is still a month away. Most women—especially in fickle, flighty Hollywood—would be stressing (and fearfully Botox-ing). But not Hudgens. Her 20s were both the best of times and the worst of times, and she’s truly ready to put them behind her.

“At 25, I felt like I had life figured out. Like, ‘I’ve got this, I’m great at life; I understand how to do it.’ And then, at 27, I woke up on my birthday and felt like I had no idea who I was, what I stood for, what I was doing with my life. I felt kind of lost,” she admits.

A further epiphany: Adulting is legit hard business. “I realized, ‘I am not a child anymore. I am not a teen. I am fully an adult, and there are so many responsibilities that come with that.’ I felt extremely overwhelmed,” she adds.

And then, in 2016, she lost her father to cancer… just a day before one of the biggest and most stressful moments of her career, performing as Pink Ladies leader Rizzo in Fox’s Grease Live. “My 20s were such a roller coaster,” she sighs. “I had so many high moments, but I lost my dad. My [boyfriend of seven years, actor Austin Butler] also lost his mom. We dealt with a lot of death.”

But instead of plummeting into a dark hole of despair, Hudgens embraced the power of being powerless and walked away feeling stronger and more resilient. “I felt like [the death of my father] really pushed me to expand and grow as a person, whether I liked it or not,” she says, noting that as time passes, so has her perspective. “I [now] feel like those moments are really great to have because they force you to reassess your life, what you believe in, what you stand for, who you want to be.”

In a word, she’s been “found.” She has no doubts as to the woman she hopes to be. “The last year of my 20s was very informative as to the woman I am becoming,” she notes. “I feel very empowered and very scared because I know there are big things ahead of me. [On the flip side], I feel like I’m grounded, I’ve gotten rid of my baggage, so to speak,

and have made way for myself to go into my 30s just a bit more streamlined, leading with love and light.”

Make that love, light and J. Lo. Superstar Jennifer Lopez has been an instrumental force in Hudgens’ professional road to rediscovery, taking on the role of mama bear and pseudo occupational advisor. Since the two hit it off while filming the romantic comedy Second Act this year, the multitalented superstar took Hudgens under her wing to dispense some motherly and mentor-ly advice.

“We’d be between sets, and we’d just talk. I’d tell her about my career and where I think I’m lacking, and she’d tell me what she thinks the right steps are to get to where I want to be,” Hudgens confides.

Specifically, “She told me, ‘If you aren’t happy in a certain aspect of your career, look at who is doing what you want to be doing, and mimic it,’” Hudgens recalls. “[Jennifer] was great at being like, ‘In order to do that, you’ve got to do this,’ and she spells it out in the most simplistic way possible. And I’d be like, ‘Oh yeah, of course, I’ll do that, and I’m going to conquer the world just like you!’”

Though Second Act revolves around Lopez’s character—an underachieving 40-year-old mother who scores a second chance at the corporate career she’s always dreamed of—it also fueled Hudgens’ determination for an equally epic second try.

In addition to the bonus of some wise career advice and a premiere date of December 21 for their film—one week after Hudgens’ 30th birthday—working with Lopez was legitimately a gift. “[Jennifer] is the queen,” Hudgens enthuses. “She’s the O.G. of rom-com; she starred in my favorite [films] growing up. When I came in to do camera tests with her, I immediately felt this insane connection. She’s so real and honest. It was something magical that happened then; that continued to happen as we were filming. I felt like we got to a point where we could be in a scene, and we were talking telepathically, where she’d be trying to tell me something, and I’d just go with it. I’d be like, ‘Are you trying to tell me this because I feel like you are?’ And she’d say, ‘Yes, baby.’ I’d be like, ‘Oh my God, I totally read your mind!’” she giggles.

But seriously, “Not only was it a fun, exciting, iconic experience, but I also got to connect with someone that I admire in a real and deep way.

[Jennifer] ‘mama’-ed me. She embraced me; whenever she sees me, she gives me the biggest, warmest hug. She always checks in on me and sees how I’m doing,” she says.

What Lopez will find, time and time again, is that she’s had a serious impact on Hudgens’ professional path. “I feel like I do take my career more seriously now,” she confides. “I grew up in this industry. I grew up onstage—I’ve been doing professional theater since I was 8 years old—and have been acting for so, so long. It never came from a place of ‘This is my career, and I’m going to do this forever.’ It was ‘This is fun. I enjoy this and want to do this.’”

Her early career moves were pure, unadulterated Disney (which is synonymous with fun, really)–she skyrocketed to fame in 2006 as one of the shiniest stars of the network’s High School Musical franchise. But since graduating HSM’s Gabriella Montez, Hudgens has had to work harder than most to gain street cred and lose the perceived bubblegum @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 17

image. She’s done so with diverse and distinctly non-Disney roles such as an exotic dancer in Zack Snyder’s pulpy Sucker Punch; a brothel worker in Robert Rodriguez’s Machete Kills; a party girl in Harmony Korine’s risqué Spring Breakers; and a runway pregnant teen in Ronald Krauss’ Gimme Shelter, among others. What these films have in common is that they have nothing in common with High School Musical.

While her career perspective has shifted, personally, she maintains that she’s still the same girl she always was, with the same sense of fun.

She may be an adult, but she’ll always have that part of her that’s still a kid, too (kind of like Britney Spears’ “I’m Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman”).

“I feel like the way that I live my life has remained the same,” she declares. “If anything, I’ve come out of my shell more, and I feel more comfortable with myself, my voice and my choices. Even though I am [now 30] and turning into a woman, I still always have a childlike wonder. I love that about myself, seeing the world through my eyes.

There’s always a sense of playfulness that I have. I don’t think I will [ever lose it]; if I’ve come this far, and it hasn’t gone away, I think it’s going to be here forever. Life’s hard, and the world’s a crazy place, but you’ve got to be able to see magic in it somehow.”

Signing on to star in Fox’s live version of Rent is, without a doubt, both a strategic and a personal choice. Hudgens, who earned rave reviews for her performance in Fox’s 2016 Grease Live, was asked by producer Marc Platt to play bisexual performance artist and activist Maureen Johnson in Fox’s January 27 live reimagining. While this isn’t her first time appearing in Rent, it is her first time playing Johnson: She played HIV-positive erotic dancer Mimi Marquez at the Hollywood Bowl back in 2010. R&B singer Tinashe will play that part on Fox. Other co-stars include Dancing with the Stars winner Jordan Fisher, R&B singer Mario, Tony nominee Brandon Victor Dixon and The X Factor competitor Brennin Hunt. Plus, The Greatest Showman show-stopper Keala Settle will join in on “Seasons of Love,” arguably the musical’s most famous tune, and one that’s performed by the entire cast.

“When Marc approached me to play Maureen, I thought, ‘This is interesting, granted that I did this show almost 10 years ago, and I’m at a different place now that I was then,’ and ‘It’s exciting to learn the show through a different character’s eyes,’” Hudgens recalls. “I loved playing Mimi—it’s such a fun character—but it almost felt too easy to do Mimi again. I thought it would be a fun challenge to play Maureen, and one that I hadn’t done yet.”

If she’s being honest, Hudgens—who has been acting since she was 8 years old, appearing in local productions of Cinderella, The Wizard of Oz and The King and I in her hometown of Salinas, Calif.—has always preferred the unknown to playing it safe. “I feel like I wouldn’t have the career that I’ve had if I only wanted to do the same thing,” she says. “I’m always pushing myself and challenging myself because that’s the only way you grow, and if you’re not growing, you’re dying.”

She’s certainly big on keeping things fresh. From a rom-com to a live musical to her upcoming Netflix action-noir-comic adaptation Polar with Mads Mikkelsen, no two projects are even slightly in the same wheelhouse.

“That’s what I try to incorporate into my work ethic,” she maintains.

“I try to push myself, to work on new things and to be working on new accents [as she did recently for Netflix’s 2018 Christmas rom-com The Princess Switch]. I allow myself to feel like I can’t be held back by any limitations, to kind of lean in to everything I’m interested in, so that when the time comes, I’ll be prepared.”

In addition to film and TV work, she’s dabbled in other fields, making her Broadway debut in 2015 with the musical Gigi; released two albums—V and Identified—through Hollywood Records; and designed her first clothing line, Suistudio, a collaboration with Suitsupply, this year. Eventually, she hopes to include all of her passions in her life plan: She’s seriously considering starting her own events company (prompted by gleefully planning her annual over-the-top Halloween bash) and, at one point, toyed with the idea of becoming a makeup artist.

That said, Hudgens is all about acting, as much to honor the legacy of a father who gave his all for her career—moving her entire family south to Los Angeles—specifically for her talent. “My dad sacrificed so much of his time and money in order to get me to the place I am now…

He gave so much for me. I think I will continue to always honor him in everything that I do,” she admits.

Her resolve to become a serious actress is as much for herself as it is her father, though. With her newfound clarity, she can make no mistake—this is what she wants, too. “I’m at a place where this isn’t just fun or a hobby, this is my career, part of my livelihood, and I need to nurture and take care of it with kindness and grace. I need to be a little more strategic and have more of a plan [for my future],” she notes.

Right now, she’s focused as hell. “It’s incredible how you can manifest things for yourself,” she marvels. “Manifestation is a real thing.

If you’re really, really specific and have your mind set on something and are doing the work, you get there. [Right now I’m doing a lot of] selfreflection, cleaning up in all different areas of my life and getting myself to a place where I feel very confident in all the decisions I’m making, and that they’re aligned with who I am.”

Who she is—or “what,” rather—is an anomaly. She’s confident, secure and likes herself, which is a rarity for any young woman in Hollywood. She loves life, loves her life, and has no qualms about admitting it.

“I’ve always been able to look in the mirror and think, ‘I feel great.

Thank you, God, for making me the way I am,’” she maintains. “That’s always been something that’s rooted in my DNA. It’s carried me quite far and I’m very, very grateful for it.”

She trusts her gut implicitly. Despite getting some solid career advice from Jennifer Lopez, it’s the advice she gave herself at age 8 that’s really shaped the person she’s become. “[The best advice I know is to] trust your intuition, especially as a woman,” she says. “Whether that’s in life, whether that’s with people, whether that’s with career choices, to really

listen. I feel like a lot of the times, we know the answers but we get too busy and the noise becomes too loud and we can’t hear it. Listen to what your gut and your heart is telling you because your gut and your heart have the answers.”

When we express surprise that she was so enlightened and yet so little, she laughs. ”I was always a wise little kid. Starting off in this industry, you have to be a little more tapped in and tuned in than the average 8-year-old. When I was going to auditions, I’d tell myself, ‘No matter what happens, it’s okay because the next thing that comes along will be bigger and better.’ That kept me going. It carried me through, and it still carries me through to this day.”

Hudgens reminds us of the butterfly she’s named for when she says, “There’s something empowering about pushing through something extremely uncomfortable and surviving it. I love getting into my beast mode. For me, that’s the moment when you’re working out and you feel like you’re going to collapse. But then you open up that secret, special compartment that holds your reserve energy. Whenever I tap into that, I feel like I can conquer the world.” @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 21

MADDOX GALLERY HAS BECOME ONE

ART

of the rising stars in the art world within the past three years. The cutting-edge, London-based group now has a total of six galleries, and has debuted its first U.S. location in none other than sunny Los Angeles. Petra Ecclestone currently serves at the helm of Maddox Gallery Los Angeles as Creative Director, using her vast expertise and artistic touch to curate the space, transferring Maddox Gallery Group’s Jay Rutland’s passion and vision into the brandnew gallery. Here, Haute Living sits down with the entrepreneur to discuss the exciting new opening and what we can expect to see.

HL: Why did you choose Los Angeles to open your first North American gallery space?

PE: Since Maddox Gallery opened in 2015, the response to the group of galleries in the U.K. and Switzerland has been overwhelmingly positive, so the natural next step was to establish our British brand in North America. I relocated to L.A. earlier this year, and its vibrant art scene is the perfect setting for our young, up-and-coming brand.

Our ethos is to break down the barriers within the art world and share our passion for art with people everywhere. We have a loyal client base in Los Angeles, so it made sense to bring the brand stateside.

HL: Tell us about the “Best of British” exhibition. Why did you choose to launch with this?

PE: As a quintessentially British brand, it was important for us to open with an exhibition dedicated to some of the finest British artists dominating the modern and contemporary art scene today as well as give a platform to talent who we believe are rising stars. Maddox Gallery is dedicated to showcasing the most exciting artists, and we have a keen interest in helping firsttime collectors enter the market, as well as sourcing works for our longtime collectors.

HL: How was it curated?

PE: It was important to honor our British roots for our inaugural show. I have been an art lover since my early teens, and my passion has never dwindled. I pursued

a degree in art and was accepted at the world-renowned arts and design college Central Saint Martins. I am a longtime art collector, but as Creative Director of Maddox Gallery Los Angeles, this is my debut as a curator. My goal was to showcase distinctive new voices alongside established names. The exhibition will display works

by Brit blue-chip and established artists including Damien Hirst, Banksy, Grayson Perry, David Yarrow and Marc Quinn as well as tomorrow’s trailblazers such as Harland Miller, The Connor Brothers, Dan Baldwin and Mark Evans.

HL: Tell us about the space. Why did you choose it for the gallery?

PE: We wanted somewhere situated in the Design District that befits our luxury brand.

The unit we found, located at 8811 Beverly Blvd. in West Hollywood, couldn’t be more perfect. It is an achromatic blank canvas which boasts just over 3,000 square feet of bright, spacious and airy floor space and striking vaulted ceilings, all of which create a sophisticated home for our art. I love this part of Los Angeles, and I’m delighted we were able to find the right location for our gallery. There is always something happening on Beverly Boulevard, and I especially love discovering its pop-up art installations.

HL: What was the most challenging aspect of designing the space?

PE: It was important to respect the space itself from an architectural point of view yet still adding our own personal touch to the design aesthetic. My vision for the gallery space is to offer a refined and sophisticated haven for the finest modern and contemporary art in the heart of West Hollywood. I hope it will become a destination where art lovers—and those who are simply curious about learning

more—can gather to peruse some of the finest artworks available today.

HL: What are you most excited to debut with the gallery’s opening?

PE: Our love and passion for art! I am delighted to showcase an array of stunning artwork by some of the hugely talented artists we represent such as fine-art photographer David Yarrow and rising stars The Connor Brothers and Dan Baldwin.

HL: What do you think has been Maddox Gallery’s key factor in how it’s been able to successfully expand so rapidly in the market over the past three years?

PE: The Maddox Gallery brand has built a reputation for exhibiting cutting-edge work from internationally acclaimed and emerging artists, and we are renowned for our irreverent attitude to tradition.

We aim to break down the barriers and democratize art as well as nurture the careers of artists we believe in. Ultimately, we have sought to be inclusive and to share our passion with all people, everywhere. I believe this has been the key to our success thus far.

R e vo l u t i o n

HL: Do you see Maddox expanding to open additional galleries in North America?

PE: Maddox Gallery is a young and dynamic brand with big dreams and ambitions, so who knows? We would love to open more galleries, not only in North America but across the globe. Our first three years have been phenomenally successful; however, we are measured in our plans for growth, and our focus at the moment is on establishing our brand stateside, growing our market share as well as focusing on our artists and on continuing to offer our clients the experience of art in a luxury environment. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 23

+Roger Dubuis VELVET Roger Dubuis Velvet: Haute Horlogerie with a feminine touch

BY MARTIN GREEN

the best is good enough. This becomes clear when you look at the “Velvet,” its collection of ladies’ watches. Each is as rich as the fabric that inspired its name, combining exquisite craftsmanship, eye for detail as well as a superb movement, all in an original design.

Roger Dubuis let the design take the lead with this watch. This is not something every manufacture has the luxury of doing, since complex designs also require the craftsmanship, expertise and machines to make them a reality. With its unusually shaped case, full of intricate details, the Velvet is not easy to craft, but it’s certainly worth the effort as it results in one of the most original ladies’ watches currently available.

While the watches all share the same basic shape of the case, Roger Dubuis made subtle differences that give each member of the Velvet collection its own personality. The Blossom Velvet Pink features a mother-of-pearl dial in which petals are linked to each other by gold branches and highlighted by diamond-set flowers. In addition, the rose gold case is set with brilliant-cut flowers, serving as the perfect frame of this piece of horological art.

The Velvet by Massaro takes a completely different approach, by putting an emphasis on the unique shape of the watch case. Crafted from white gold, it is set with brilliant-cut diamonds, which we also find on the dial. Roman numerals add a bit of classic style to this watch, while the extraordinary pleated Haute Couture strap made from leather give this Velvet loads of character.

At first glance, the Secret Heart looks like the most “ordinary” member of the Velvet collection, if there is such a thing. However, it is fitted with a unique bi-retrograde jumping date complication.

This raises the center of the dial slightly, adding even more depth to the design. With this watch, Roger Dubuis shows that beauty and practicality can be merged together in a single creation.

Beauty is also something that goes deeper than just the outside. All watches in the Velvet collection are fitted with automatic movements that are crafted in the brand’s manufacture in Geneva. Each one wears the Geneva Seal, which is evidence of the extremely high finishing of the movements. For Roger Dubuis, it is a way of life, with no detail too small to work tirelessly to make sure it is the best it possibly can be.

Hublot and Richard Orlinski join forces again to launch Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski México To celebrate Mexico, luxury Swiss watch manufacturer Hublot has joined forces again with famed French sculptor, Richard Orlinski, to create a green-hued Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski México. The green coloring symbolizes hope and independence and is also a tribute to the beautiful country, as it is one of the main colors in its flag.

“It’s an honor for Hublot, as we love Mexico so much, to share with friends the work of Richard Orlinski,” began Ricardo Guadalupe, Global CEO of Hublot. “[He is] an artist whose bestiary of sculptures already features the emblems marking the power of the Mexican flag—the snake and the eagle. Is this chance or fate?”

The timepiece is distinctly Orlinski, with its rocky, beveled exterior and edges that reflect the light. Limited to only 30 pieces, one of the main attributes of the watch is the 12-faceted case in green ceramic. Orlinski used a three-dimensional cambering technique to achieve this aesthetic. The green, as mentioned, is one of the key colors in the Mexican flag, while other flag components are also prominently included on the timepiece. For instance, the second-hand on the dial is colored red, while the HUB1155 skeleton self-winding chronograph movement has the symbolic eagle and snake—symbolizing Earth and Heaven—as imagined by Orlinski. He also revealed a gorgeous statue, bearing the two animals, at SIAR in Mexico.

“I’m delighted to have designed the new Classic Fusion Orlinski Mexico with the Hublot teams,” began the Hublot ambassador. “For me, this colorful land was a real source of inspiration and made me want to create a collection of sculptures celebrating Mexico.”

+the big reveal A Look at Moran Yacht & Ship’s Illustrious 95m KISMET

BY DELLVIN ROSHON WILLIAMS

more specifically his boat, is immediately evident as you step onboard KISMET,” says Christopher Callahan, Broker and Marketing Director at Moran Yacht & Ship Inc., world-class leader in the sale, construction and charter of luxury superyachts.

Having set the standard for with the first KISMET (now renamed Global), billionaire Jacksonville Jaguars and Fulham Football Club owner Shahid Khan’s second KISMET is no less unforgettable.

Delivered by Lürssen in 2014 and designed by Espen Oeino, KISMET remains one of the world’s most iconic superyachts and is still very much ahead of its time. Available for charter and sale for the first time with Moran Yacht & Ship, the 95.2m (13.8m beam) KISMET is a custom motor yacht outfitted to accommodate 12 guests in seven cabins (including two VIP suites), has three outdoor lounges spaces, a pool and hot tub complex that is every bit as opulent as its extravagant, highprofile passengers—Jay-Z and Beyoncé among them.

KISMET is the culmination of a six-year journey, one in which the expansion of Khan’s wealth and influence also coincided with a need to accommodate a growing, adrenaline-fueled constituency. Unlike the first KISMET, however, 68m wasn’t enough. According to the story, Khan’s design brief contained three words: “make it impressive.”

And impressive it is.

KISMET comes with its very own cinema, a full-service spa, indoor/outdoor dining spaces for 12 (bar included) and a formal interior dining room with a staircase that leads to the ballroom (as one would expect). There are also two helipads, 70 HAUTE LIVING hauteyachts.com

“I THINK THE OWNER’S PASSION FOR YACHTING, AND

Haute one on the foredeck, doubling as a basketball court; the other, an outdoor lounge. The upper foredeck also boasts a large mosaic-tiled pool with an inset Jacuzzi.

Vision is the key, as Callahan explains: “Owner requirements certainly dictate concepts and design. The majority of owners that we work with have either chartered or owned other vessels and base their requirements on previous experience. This is the main factor that drives their concept and design … The amount of detail and thought that went into building [KISMET] is honestly incredible.”

Spread out over five decks, the Reymond Langton-designed “Champagne & Caviar” interior concept features a doubleheight main salon spanning the main and upper deck aft via a sweeping staircase perfect for nightcaps, morning joe or corporate entertaining. Cruising at 14 knots and a maximum speed of 17 knots, KISMET can effortlessly reach 6,000 nautical miles from 220,000 fuel tanks.

KISMET’s availability comes at a time when yacht builders and brokers are riding the wave of increased sales. But in an industry that’s seen its share of challenges, Callahan is quick to point out that Moran Yacht & Ship’s approach to luxury shipping―making expertly crafted luxury experiences integral to its state-of-the-art attention to detail―is why the brand has loomed large in the minds of yachting enthusiasts for nearly three decades. “While there have been some market gyrations recently, we continue to be optimistic on all fronts [sales, charter, new construction],” he says.

“As a testament to this, we have recently signed a 116m new build project called Project TESTAROSSA.”

YACHTS

LIST

Furthermore, the trend toward eco-friendly technology onboard superyachts has not been lost. As the UConn School of Business grad proudly notes regarding the Ken Freivokhdesigned 106m Oceanco BLACK PEARL, “The concept was to create one of the world’s most technologically advanced superyachts offering true zero-emissions cruising— virtually unheard of, especially for a yacht of her size. I think we will continue to see more advancement on this front, since the environment and seeking its natural beauty is a cornerstone of yachting.”

Moran Yacht & Ship currently has eight projects in progress ranging from 64m to 142m. In 2018 alone, the firm signed 109m, 116m and 118m projects. Due for delivery next year is the 95m Lürssen Project FIJI. FIJI will be available for charter this summer in the Mediterranean and, according to Callahan, “will definitely be one of the highest-profile charter yachts afloat.”

With brand DNA like this, projects of such remarkable passion are no wonder why KISMET remains a true masterpiece. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 71

+Sky’s the limit Haute Living talks to Honda Aircraft Company President and CEO Michimasa Fujino

BY DELLVIN ROSHON WILLIAMS

PHOTOS COURTESY OF HONDA AIRCRAFT COMPANY

Haute

JETS

LIST

THERE ARE LESS-CREATIVE WAYS TO PRESS RESET THAN BY

staging pure aviation theater―for $5 million. But the new and improved HondaJet has done just that. Honda Aircraft Company’s launch of the HondaJet Elite has been extraordinary; the response, overwhelming. But there’s more to the Ferragamo stiletto-inspired HA-420 upgrade.

With a travel range of 1,437 nautical miles and a maximum speed of 485 mph, the HondaJet Elite reaches an altitude of 8,000 feet, maxing out at 43,000 feet. The seven-seater also incorporates efficient aerodynamic design with over-the-wing engine mounts, an all-glass touchscreen cockpit for two, a fully enclosed belted lavatory—unavailable on most light jets―and the Bongiovi Aviation system that converts interior panels into speakers.

Having achieved FAA certification and delivered 17 jets in the first half of 2018 alone, the HondaJet Elite is making headway among the world’s ever-expanding millionaire class. Michimasa Fujino, President and CEO of Honda Aircraft Company, talks exclusively to Haute Living about pioneering technological advancement, best-in-class performance and being the mostdelivered aircraft in its class.

Haute Living (HL): HondaJet Elite is the most-delivered luxury light jet in its class. Why? Michimasa Fujino (MF): When I set out to design a business jet, I wanted to create new value in the aviation industry by providing users with the most-advanced technologies such as state-of-the-art aerodynamics and composite structure. The HondaJet is a clean sheet design and the result of years of aeronautical research.

Our meticulous attention to detail, design and engineering offer customers the best performance, efficiency and comfort in its class. Also, dedication to bettering the industry and to improving the lives of our customers accounts for the HondaJet’s success.

HL: Are we seeing a transition from luxury large cabin jets to lighter luxury aircraft?

MF: There has been an increase in interest in more efficient business jet travel options. For example, the majority of business jet usage is less than 1,000 nautical miles. If you are traveling with a few passengers, it’s more practical and efficient to use a light jet rather than a large cabin jet. The HondaJet is as high performance and comfortable as a large cabin jet, but is also much more efficient and appealing to not only individual owners but also fleet and charter operators.

HL: How has HondaJet Elite’s success translated in the global market?

MF: Due to the innovation and technology implemented on the HondaJet, interest in the aircraft in the Middle East, which is not

generally a light jet market, is rapidly increasing. It is a more efficient option and is perfect for city pairs within GCC [Gulf Cooperation Council], has a sporty look and is attractive to the region.

In Asia, the Honda brand is very strong, which has created a lot of brand recognition across the region. Commitment to innovation and technology are all contributing factors to Asia’s interest for both individual and fleet sales.

The Middle East and Asia are both new areas of growth for the HondaJet. While sales in the U.S. remain strong, interest in these regions provides us with the opportunity to increase awareness of the benefits of light jets and to expand sales and service of the HondaJet. HL: What would be the key differences between HondaJet Elite buyers and large or mid-sized jet buyers?

MF: Buyers in the light-jet market are often owner-operators who are interested in personal and business use; those buying light jets are usually looking for a more efficient way of regional travel, including access to smaller airports. And purchasers of light jets may be looking to lessen their impact on the environment while also enjoying the benefits of private air travel.

HL: Are there any technological innovations that you would like to bring to the market?

MF: We are always looking for ways to improve personal mobility through technological innovation. Our goal is to continue to create new value in the industry, and we are constantly working on new technologies such as advanced aerodynamics, new structural material, automation and advanced controls. We’re thankful that business aviation users continue to choose HondaJet. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 73

MCLAREN AUTOMOTIVE, THE BRITISH CREATOR OF LUXURY AND HIGH-PERFORMANCE sports

cars, has revealed its stunning Ultimate Series McLaren Speedtail. The new sports car will exceed the 243-mph peak speed of the legendary McLaren F1 and feature a central driving position plus two seats on either side. Only 106 Speedtails will be created and priced around $2 million.

One of the innovative ways McLaren is merging art with performance is by offering clients the opportunity to customize their Speedtail with a range of unique finishes for their car’s badge.

The well-known badge, which comes in a set of three, will feature the trademark McLaren “Speedmark” logo and will be recreated in hand-crafted 18-carat white-gold emblems and carbon-fiber inlays, utilizing the exclusive Thin Ply Technology (TPT). The emblems, which will be on the front and back of the car, are laser-etched with the McLaren hallmark, displaying where and when they were created.

Vaughtons, the manufacturer that is renowned for exceptional quality and craftsmanship in emblems, medals, and badges, has hand-crafted the emblems for the new limited-edition Speedtail. In 1993, authentic gold was used for the first time in its luxury cars with the legendary McLaren F1, which famously used gold foil as a heat shield in the engine compartment.

While this is the first of 18 supercars promised from the company’s master plan, the McLaren Speedtail combines the allure of elegance with an advanced sports car design. The automotive company is continuing to make insurmountable advancements in history in the luxury sports car markets.

Haute Residence Luxury Miami Real Estate Summit at THE Estates at Acqualina HAUTE RESIDENCE’S ANNUAL LUXURY MIAMI REAL ESTATE

Summit took place on November 13 at The Estates at Acqualina in Sunny Isles Beach joined by the top real estate tycoons of the Magic City. In partnership with The Estates at Acqualina and Mansions at Acqualina, on the eve of the summit, the top real estate brokers were treated to an exquisite private dinner by the Acqualina culinary team as they got a sneak peek into The Mansions at Acqualina’s sprawling 8,000-square-foot oceanfront $38 million penthouse, which includes a Lamborghini Aventador and Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

Haute Living CEO Kamal Hotchandani toasted to the celebratory evening kicking off the real estate summit. “It’s an honor to be amongst so many visionaries and pioneers from across the country,” he said.

“Thank you to our partners, The Estates at Acqualina for opening up your doors and making this incredible event happen in such an amazing space. We’re looking forward to a fantastic summit tomorrow.”

The elite networking summit event connected high-end buyers, sellers and industry peers with Haute Residence’s prestigious panels of “National Power Brokers,” “Miami Power Brokers” and the “Titans of Miami ‘East Coast Kings.’” After each panel discussion, Trump Group’s President of Sales Michael Goldstein gave a tour of the property’s sales gallery where guests watched a video of The Estates at Acqualina and Mansion at Acqualina’s sprawling, state-of-the-art amenities, finishes and services offered.

The summit kicked off with “Titans of Miami ‘East Coast Kings’” panel moderated by Fox News contributor Edward Woodson. Jules Trump, Louis Birdman, Ugo Colombo, Gil Dezer, Dan Kodsi and Carlos Rosso sounded off on the evolution of the Miami skyline, the future of the residential real estate market and why South Florida is pushing toward more vertical living.

While discussing the evolution of Miami’s skyline and cosmopolitan community and city, the visionary developers credited Art Basel as the event of the season that gave Miami an international stamp of approval.

Seth Gordon and Miami Power Brokers Panel

“After the first Basel, 16 years ago, Miami became respected as a world-class city. I think that’s been an amazing thing for all of us. It has attracted all the finest people … With the fine-art collectors, come people who are our buyers, your customers, who want to come to Miami to see the best of everything,” Stephanie Trump said.

The visionaries behind key residential developments like One Thousand Museum, The Estates at Acqualina, PARAMOUNT Miami, Residences by Armani/Casa and the Porsche Design Tower, gave insight into how they have revolutionized Miami’s residential vertical developments with state-of-the-art design and amenities.

For Gil Dezer, every building reflects the developer. “Yes, we have designers and a team, but at the end of the day we are instructing them on the way to go and what to do. [The building] reflects your own personality and what you are inspired by,” he said.

Next, the “National Power Brokers” included Dolly and Jenny Lenz, Olivia Hsu Decker, Gary Feldman, Richard Steinberg, Santiago Arana and President of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, Daniel de la Vega. Moderated by Strategist Seth Gordon, the top brokers from key national markets discussed the latest market trends, conditions and developments in the luxury real estate market and the advice they would give up-and-coming brokers.

“The key to success is knowing who you are and your vision, continuing to innovate and surrounding yourself with good people.

The new trend in the industry is teams,” Daniel de la Vega said.

“Make sure as you grow your team, you surround yourself with good people, people that know more than you, and this will allow you to grow successfully.”

National Power Brokers Panel

The panel focused on the current state of the market, with the fear of an upcoming dip in the market due to the oversaturation of product. While each panelist agreed that it is hard to generalize each market with a yes or no answer to that, most agreed it is how you handle and pitch the ups and downs of the market to your client. “It is not a buyer’s market or a seller’s market. It’s an opportunity market,” Olivia Hsu Decker said.

All power brokers agreed the importance of an honest and transparent communication with clients, no matter the state of the market.

“When you are discussing the market with your client, you need to turn all negatives into positives,” Richard Steinberg said. “Any agent who will tell you the market is robust and wonderful at all times, I find hard to believe.”

Finally, the third panel highlighted Dora Puig, Audrey Ross, Lourdes Alatriste, Jeff Miller, Jorge Uribe, Senada Adzem and Michael Goldstein as the “Miami Power Brokers.” Moderated

by Strategist Seth Gordon, the panel focused on the Magic City’s luxury real estate market trends. Highly renowned as Miami’s most powerful brokers, each panelist focused in on their respective markets as they discussed the luxury-buyer client relocating to South Florida. While the preference in property, whether a penthouse, waterfront home or a single-family home in Boca Raton differs from client to client, all panelists agreed the market has seen a shift from international buyers to more domestic buyers―something they credit to the relatively inexpensive taxes in Florida.

TO LAUNCH ITS LATEST COLLECTION—THE

CYBEX for Scuderia Ferrari collection— the high-end child safety and juvenile product company CYBEX hosted a swanky cocktail party together with Tot Living by Haute Living. Taking place in the Ferrari of Miami showroom, the intimate affair brought out Miami’s finest to check out the sporty and chic new collection of strollers and baby carriers, as well as to test-drive the latest and sexiest Ferraris on offer.

Social influencer Adamari Lopez, who frequently showcases her young daughter on her Instagram account @adamarilopez, had fun with the CYBEX for Scuderia Ferrari products, testing out the strollers and the baby carrier in both the black and the offwhite color versions.

Entrepreneur and television superstar Angela Simmons—also a young mother with a 2-year-old baby boy—took a test drive of the products as well and posed in front of various Ferrari models on the showroom floor.

Ian Llobregat of @thebillionairesclub also made an appearance to the event, as did Navin Chatani—hospitality entrepreneur—and real estate mogul Ugo Colombo and his wife, Sara.

As guests mingled and swayed to the sexy beats of influencer and DJ Willy Monfret (@ monfretwilly on Instagram), they enjoyed hors d’oeuvres, such as arancini, fig-and-brie flatbreads, smoked salmon and tuna canapés, as well as custom cocktails from the on-site bar made with Avion Reposado and Absolut Elyx, and complimentary CYBEX for Scuderia Ferrari diaper bags.

Later into the evening, Haute Living CEO Kamal Hotchandani addressed the crowd, thanking the CYBEX and Ferrari teams and beginning a Q&A session with CYBEX’s VP of International Sales, Ruben Baumann, and with Ferrari. Baumann touched on the core pillars of CYBEX—design, safety and functionality—as well as the importance of the Ferrari partnership, symbolizing the brand’s emphasis that life doesn’t stop after you have a child, and its “passion for excellence.”

As the night continued, guests basked in the ambiance of the perfect evening, sipping tasty cocktails and mingling with the who’s who of Miami, as they geared up for CYBEX and Tot Living by Haute Living’s next event on the following day, celebrating the second birthday of Asahd Khaled—Executive Producer and son of the iconic DJ Khaled— taking place at Miami’s Marlins Park.

The famed music producer and social media sensation DJ Khaled and Nicole Tuck threw their son, Asahd, an extravagant, circusthemed birthday bash at the gorgeous Marlins Park and decked the newly renovated baseball stadium out in carnival games and rides and provided entertainment with live performances, a fashion show, a handful of vendors and more to make the day one of the most memorable yet.

The highlight of the event occurred when a beautiful red Ferrari 488 GTB pulled into the stadium to deliver Asahd one of his most lustworthy birthday gifts—a red, mini LaFerrari children’s car provided by CYBEX, emblazoned with the company’s signature logo. Along with the car, CYBEX also gifted Asahd the first custom CYBEX for Scuderia Ferrari―Asahd Khaled stroller, which had his name embroidered on the basket of the lavish stroller. CYBEX celebrated the launch of the special luxury children’s line the night before at the brand-new Ferrari of Miami dealership where they presented guests with the gorgeous CYBEX for Scuderia Ferrari strollers, car seats and carriers.

Along with the tangible presents, CYBEX and Tot Living by Haute Living presented Asahd with a $10,000 check made out to We the Best Foundation for Asahd’s initiative, which supports the 501-C3 foundation in enriching the lives of children. The 92 HAUTE LIVING totliving.com

initiative, which launched that day, specifically supports programs that aid in the growth and advancement of a child’s life, with a special emphasis placed on programs that meet community needs and reinforce family values that promote youth entrepreneurship.

The mini mogul has had quite a year—he’s executive-produced hit singles like “Wild Thoughts,” which went four-times platinum, and “To the Max,” which earned a gold certification with his famous father, and attended red carpets of high-profile events throughout the country in the most dapper of children’s attire. But most importantly, he’s focusing on giving back to children just like himself with his family and the We the Best Foundation to inspire other children to achieve their own greatness.

To conclude, Derek Jeter took the stage to present $100,000 to the Foundation on behalf of the Miami Marlins along with a special customized Marlins jersey for Asahd.

With a celebratory “Happy Birthday” moment, Asahd and his family blew out the candles of his towering, circus-themed cake by The Ellinnet Cake Collection and enjoyed the rest of the afternoon’s festivities with friends and family.

The event was made possible by Marlins Stadium, Kathy Romero Events, Lyft, Tot Living

TOP SKI RESORTS +THE IN EUROPE Where to hit the slopes in style this winter

BY LAURA SCHREFFLER

WHETHER YOU’RE SEEKING

stellar backcountry, fresh powder or

gorgeous groomers, you’ll find what you’re looking for at these five-star European ski resorts this winter.

ZERMATT THE OMNIA

If you’ve ever fantasized about skiing the Matterhorn, make your

dreams a reality. Head to Zermatt, a small hamlet where the crown jewel of the Swiss Alps is visible at every turn, and, in turn, stay at one of the best resorts in Europe, The Omnia. Its location is quite unique: The hotel sits on a rock in the middle of the village of

Zermatt, but high above all other buildings in town, closer to the

sky with the Matterhorn itself as its neighbor. With just 30 rooms,

The Omnia is quite small compared to its competitors. It’s homey,

even, with the philosophy of offering guests everything they could

dream of (what’s in a name, you say? “Omnia” means “everything” in Latin). The Omnia is like a home away from home, but better.

It’s where you curl up with a high-end whisky and one of many art and design books in the library after a day on the slopes. It’s where you swim in the indoor/outdoor pool and gaze directly

at the Matterhorn and where you sit amid flickering firelight and sip grappa after dinner. It’s where you appreciate that the best moments in life happen in the smallest of ways.

Auf dem Fels, 3920 Zermatt, Switzerland

The Omnia is accented by a cool, minimalist design, which is best enjoyed from the Omnia Roof Suite, where guests will find epic views of the Matterhorn and the Zermatt valley, as well as a wood-burning stove and fireplace, a telescope, bathroom with a wooden bathtub (seen here) and a sauna with a relaxing room.

TRAVEL

GRAND RESORT BAD RAGAZ At the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz resort—which is cleverly situated in

between the Grisons, Glarus and St. Gallen skiing areas—guests are offered the best of health and wellness as well as a truly amazing place to ski.

The resort offers unique experiences that utilize healing Ragazer thermal water, which famously boosts metabolism and circulation, improves cardiac function and alleviates diseases. As one of 14 Swiss Olympic

medical centers, it allows both beginners and professional athletes to hone their skills and improve their technique and performance. Professional

and amateur skiers visiting the resort have access to a range of services,

including personal training, fitness coaching and performance diagnostics.

Additionally, all guests can soothe their bodies and souls after a day on the slopes in the 65,000-square-foot Thermal Spa, which offers gratis access to the restorative Tamina Therme; and enjoy dinner at the Michelin-starred IGNIV by Andreas Caminada. The resort will also celebrate its 150th

anniversary this year with a complete renovation of the Grand Hotel Quellenhof and a new restaurant, curated by chef Sven Wassmer.

Bernhard-Simonstrasse, 7310 Bad Ragaz, Switzerland Stay at the beautiful Badrutt’s Palace Hotel in St. Moritz to indulge in a plethora of finedining options, such as IGNIV from three Michelin-starred chef Andreas Caminada and Matsuhisa, as well as a wondrous heated outdoor pool, breathtaking indoor pool, solarium and gold-adorned King’s Club.

ST. MORITZ

BADRUTT’S PALACE HOTEL Thanks to its favorable location in the Engadine region of the Swiss Alps, St. Moritz enjoys over 300 days of sunshine a year, making it a dream destination for those who plan on hitting the slopes. It’s no wonder that this playground for the rich and famous has hosted two Winter Olympics as well

as, annually, the Snow Polo World Cup and “White Turf” horse race on the frozen Lake St. Moritz.

While there are several five-star properties in the area, we would be remiss not to mention the palatial Badrutt’s Palace Hotel, which actually resembles a castle. Badrutt’s Palace is home to IGNIV, a new restaurant courtesy of three Michelin-starred Swiss chef Andreas Caminada, as well as Matsuhisa,

one of Nobu Matsuhisa’s signature high-end Japanese eateries. At its breakfast restaurant, expect to be PHOTO COURTESY OF BADRUTT’S PALACE HOTEL

(which just completed a renovation that includes a new restaurant, King’s Social House, with Michelinstarred chef Jason Atherton at its helm for late-night) for après-ski shenanigans. And there’s more: a

heated outdoor pool; private hair spa; pedi spa; solarium, an ice room; aromatherapy room; salt steam

room; a fitness center with a private sun terrace and tennis courts; a natural outdoor ice rink; shopping courtesy of Bulgari, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Tom Ford, Giorgio Armani and Harry Winston, among others; and Rolls-Royce transfers. Sold—to the highest bidder!

GSTAAD

THE ALPINA GSTAAD Gstaad, a resort town in the southwestern Swiss Alps, is a famously popular destination for

the jet setters and high society alike. Although

two of its most famous events occur during the summer months—the Hublot Polo Cup and

the Swiss Open—it’s best known as a mountain town, and as such, the winter months are a

killer time to come and ski or snowboard in

style. Stay in style as well by booking a suite

at the Alpina Gstaad, which, when it opened

its doors in 2012, was the newest luxury hotel to open in that small Swiss Alpine village in

100 years. Even in this village of billionaires, it made a splash with its Six Senses Spa, its two

Michelin-starred eateries Sommet and Megu,

Havana-style cigar lounge, cinema where the Hollywood set screens films, a 1,000-bottle

wine room, Culinary Week takeover of the

storied Harry’s Bar and a stunning modern art

collection from the likes of Tracey Emin, Futura

and Roy Nachum. In addition to the permanent collection there, the hotel also features an artist

of the moment in order to provide a new, fresh and constantly rotating cultural exhibit.

VAL D’ISÈRE

HÔTEL LES BARMES DE L’OURS While many mountain towns offer a little something for

everyone, Val d’Isère is a spot that’s for dedicated skiers and snowboarders. In fact, this French mountain town in the

Savoie region (located just a stone’s throw from the Italian

border) regularly hosts Men’s World Cup Alpine events and also PHOTO COURTESY OF HÔTEL LES BARMES DE L’OURS

hosted the World Ski Championships in 2009. Come this winter for the World Cup Criterium December 7-16 and check in to

Hôtel les Barmes de l’Ours, a traditional, five-star Savoie-style residence that’s understated yet elegant. Each floor features a

different mountain journey: Scandinavian spirit, Lodge of the

American Great White North, Alpine chalet and contemporary mountain loft. Our favorite room is the “Ours” Bear Suite,

which plays up the Alpine aesthetic with wood-beamed ceilings, a wooden bar, sumptuous chimney and panoramic views of

Val d’Isère from a large picture window. There’s also a private Jacuzzi, hammam and sauna en-suite.

MEGÈVE

LE CHALET ZANNIER

Suite 2 at Chalet Zannier offers a unique king-size bed embedded in a vast open space. In addition to the walk-in wardrobe, it has a cozy dining corner looking out onto the breathtaking French Alps.

Megève, a commune in the Haute-Savoie area of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in

Southeastern France, was originally conceived in the early 20th century as the French alternative to Saint-Moritz by the wealthy Rothschild family. Originally designated as a prime destination

for the French aristocracy, today it remains one of the ritziest and most pedigreed resort towns in

Europe, known as much for its history as its proximity to Mont Blanc. Should you want a piece of

this thoroughbred pie, make your way to Megève and book Le Chalet Zannier, which is extremely

exclusive and very intimate, given that it has only 12 rooms. This mountainous cocoon has been

named the best boutique ski hotel in France for three years running thanks to its effortless Alpine

VAL THORENS ALTAPURA

Val Thorens is the highest station in Europe at over 10,500 feet above sea level, and also the most-visited international ski destination in

France. Because of its north and northwest-facing mountains, the area tends to receive less sunlight than many resorts, which means it is optimal for skiers interested in truly hitting the slopes and less interested in “terracing.” If you fit the bill,

immerse yourself in the experience off-slope at the tech-friendly Altapura as you might on-slope with the most technologically advanced ski equipment.

At this Nordic-chic resort, expect to step into a

world that’s operated by interactive touch screen, be it by iPhone, iPad or Mac mini. In addition to

on-demand videos and free-of-use Macs, the resort also features a ski shop by Goitschel, a family of famous Olympic medal-holding French skiers

who also launched the resort back in the 1970s.

How’s that for pedigree?

HOCHGURGL

TOP HOTEL HOCHGURGL The Austrian Alps can be overlooked in favor of its more

famous French and Swiss brethren, but Obergurgl-Hochgurgl

should not be missed. Its location on the sunny side of the Ötztal Valley’s 21 glaciated three-thousanders offers mountaingoers an optimal, joyful experience. In particular, the ski runs at in-out ski resort TOP Hotel Hochgurgl are prime for skiers. Where

other slopes end, this one is just beginning: Though the hotel

itself clocks in at 7,000 feet above sea level, its slopes stretch up to 10,000 feet, making this one of the highest-altitude resorts

in Europe. TOP creates a, well, top experience for the jet set as

well as any French or Swiss resort could, as well. The Relais & Châteaux hotel offers an on-piste champagne bar, an outdoor oyster bar, a 360-degree view 10,000 feet above sea level at

the TOP Mountain Star, an amazing spa offering everything from Reviderm skin needling to JetPeel hydroporation to

dermal contouring and even Europe’s highest-altitude classic

motorcycle museum. Plus, you can pre-order ski equipment to

be ready upon arrival with the click of a button from November through May—open earlier and closing later than most of its

other European competitors. In summary, this resort is unique in every way―and don’t you want to try something different?

sweet spot. As part of the 3 Vallées ski area, don’t doubt that the powder will be fresh and the groomers inviting. And amid

this truly beautiful area in the French Alps, there is one gem

that must be mentioned: La Bouitte. La Bouitte, a boutique hotel PHOTO COURTESY OF LA BOUITTE

with an in-house restaurant of the same name that has the distinct honor of holding three Michelin stars. Yet, it doesn’t have any of the pretentions that a traditional three Michelin star holder might have. Both the restaurant and hotel are truly authentic:

Guests might feel like they’re truly houseguests of chefs René and Maxime Meilleur (Meilleur, fittingly, means “the best” in French) in every way possible from the surprise greeting (we’ve been

sworn to secrecy) to Chef checking in to make sure you slept well.

There is more that makes this homespun hotel unique, however: Its spa has created its own range of products and cosmetics,

Meilleur Nature, created from natural local ingredients including

milk and epilobe (mountain flowers); a growing partnership with Tissus Arpin, the last wool-spinning factory in the Savoy; and a

worthy collection of Savoyard artisan art. A visit here is a once-ina-lifetime experience. Savor it wisely.

HÔTEL LE K2 PALACE

Courchevel is one of the ritziest ski resort areas in the French Alps, a

11 stars total) and luxury shopping via Louis Vuitton, Valentino, Prada, Cartier, Fendi, Dior and Chanel—as they do for the skiing. Come in December for the Ladies’ Alpine World Cup giant slalom and book a stay at the grand and glorious Hôtel Le K2 Palace. This Leading

level of privacy and having ski-in ski-out access (which was actually PHOTOS COURTESY OF HÔTEL LE K2 PALACE

comprised of a main building and its adjoining chalets, nestled into

the mountainside, integrating seamlessly into the landscape. Book the Suite-Chalet Muztagh, a four-level, five-bedroom chalet with its own large indoor pool, hammam and ski room as well as a dedicated in-

suite chef, waiter and manager. One of the aforementioned Michelinstarred eateries is located here (Le Kintessence, awarded with two

Michelin stars), as is the spirits and cigar bar, Winston Klub, and the award-winning Goji Spa by Valmont.

+Tastes of Fall

The beloved Los Angeles dining destination A.O.C. reopens with new look and menu this fall.

FOLLOWING A SMALL BUT SADDENING

kitchen fire that caused the iconic Californiainspired Los Angeles eatery A.O.C. to temporarily close down, it has finally opened its doors after about two months of restoring the beloved destination. Now, A.O.C. is back, better than ever, and debuting a new look and feel to its loyal customers, as well as a fresh, fall-inspired menu.

During the closure, owners Suzanne Goin and Caroline Styne used the unfortunate opportunity to bring about something positive by taking advantage of the unplanned closure to refresh the restaurant.

Exciting additions include an abundance of greenery with new trees, new flooring and refinished tables and bars—revitalizing the cozy atmosphere to maintain the restaurant’s identity but welcome some new-andimproved modern touches.

The James Beard Award-winning restaurant has developed a prestigious reputation among Los Angelinos’ most critical palettes, most notably for the eatery’s constantly evolving, seasonally inspired menu and extensive wine list. With the upgraded look of the restaurant also comes a brand-new, fall-inspired menu rolled out by power duo Goin and Styne.

Seasonal dishes making their way to the menu include a Spicy Soppressata Focaccia 116 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com

with tomato confit, mozzarella and jalapeños; Escarole salad with little gems, anchovy, celery and grapes; Wylie’s Kampachi dressed with cucumber, crème fraiche and green harissa; a wood oven-roasted Swordfish with spinach, lemon and bottarga breadcrumbs; a rich Pappardelle with chanterelles, roasted kabocha and a savory uni butter; Za’atar Lamb Chops complemented by sunchokes, chestnuts, dates and sherry; and a comforting roasted butternut squash with guajillo, piquillo and pomegranate and more. If you’re dining in a large group, a must-try is the Grilled Whole Sea Bream platter, paired with sweet coconut rice, lemongrass sambal and peanuts.

Bartender Christiaan Rollich has also rolled out a new cocktail menu with a long list of decadent libations, ranging from the “Three Amigos”—tequila, piloncillo, sarsaparilla, kola nut and sassafras root; to the “Green Goddess”—green tea-infused vodka with cucumber, arugula, jalapeño and absinthe; or the “Little Lion” with bourbon, passion fruit, sarsaparilla and vanilla.

And of course, longtime lovers of the Lucques Group eatery can still find their favorite classic hits on the menu like the bacon-wrapped dates, the Farmer ’s Plate, Chicken & Waffles and so much more.

Bon appétit!

How I pick my haute holiday presents

+THE GIFT OF GIVING

Haute

AMBASSADOR

“I TRULY LOVE THIS TIME OF THE YEAR BEST OF ALL, BUT I KNOW I’LL SOON BE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. WISHING YOU A HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON, WHEREVER YOUR TRAVELS MAY TAKE YOU!” – Maria Sharapova

HERE ARE A FEW OF MY THOUGHTS ON SELECTING THE BEST HOLIDAY GIFTS: 1. MAKE A PLAN AND STICK TO IT. I start thinking about the holidays way too far in advance but ultimately don’t get everything done until the very last day. Do your best to plot and plan out your list of whom you’re buying for as early as you can.

MY CHILDHOOD YEARS WERE SPENT IN RUSSIA, AND NEW YEAR’S EVE

was the crowning moment of the holiday season that we celebrated. Gifts were placed in a large red velvet bag, and as the new year approached us, someone from the family would dress as Santa Claus and put the red bag under the tree for us all to open.

As an adult, the holidays have taken a bit of a different shape, but they are still very much centered on family and giving.

What I love most is seeing most of my friends and family together in one space. We all live very fast-paced lives, and slowing down with all of them is pretty much a gift in itself.

Speaking of gifts, it is such a pleasure for me to select the perfect ones for my loved ones. I adore the entire process, from planning and picking them out to wrapping―even if it means I’m on the floor of my living room covered in tape and shiny ribbon bits at the 11th hour!

2. COLLECT TREASURES AS YOU TRAVEL. I don’t think it’s ever too early to get a gift for someone you know will appreciate it, especially if you find it on your travels. On a tropical vacation in July and spot something that your best friend will just adore? Pick it up from now and hold it until the holidays. (Just don’t forget what closet of your house you stored it in!)

3. TAKE NOTE. Handwritten notes will never go out of style―which is why stationery is high on my list for the perfect holiday gift. I especially love personalized notecards made of unique or handmade papers from around the world.

4. BE SWEET. Fill an elegant clear glass or crystal vessel with beautifully wrapped, high-quality candies, like Sugarpova Dark Chocolate Raspberry Truffles.

5. GIVE YOURSELF THE GIFT OF TIME. Allow yourself a few moments to soak in the season. I enjoy waking up extra early and having my first cup of coffee close to the tree with the fireplace on―no lists, no wrapping… just peace. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 119
