LIEV SCHREIBER HAS SEEMINGLY FIGURED OUT THE MEANING OF LIFE, FREEDOM, AND THE WHOLE DAMN THING AS HE TAKES BROADWAY BY STORM ONCE AGAIN IN DOUBT: A PARABLE .

SHIRT: Dolce & Gabbana SUIT: Ralph Lauren COAT: Lemaire, available at Saks Fifth Avenue

BY LAURA SCHREFFLER

iev Schreiber is a big proponent of reading reviews the good, the bad, and the ugly. Rather, I should say he was… until now.

His hesitation has nothing to do with the fact that his current project, the Broadway revival of Doubt: A Parable, lost its leading lady, Tyne Daly — hospitalized with a medical condition less than a month before opening night — or that he had to find immediate chemistry with her replacement, Amy Ryan. No, it was one, small but mighty word that set him back from seeing the predominantly glowing appraisals of his turn as Father Flynn in John Patrick Shanley’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award Best Play winner.

“I got scared off by one [review in particular], which said that I was old,” the 56-year-old Tony winner confesses. “I didn’t want to read any further than that because I could immediately feel that [comment] hurting my feelings. But also, I think that they were right — not that I was too old in life, but that I was too old for the role, and in many respects, that made me feel old. When something gets inside my head, it doesn’t go away. It never bothered me when I was younger, but now is a different story.”

Not knowing how others assessed his performance was a departure from his typical M.O. “I usually do read the reviews,” he insists. “I’ve always been that kind of person, in fact. I always want to know everything. I’ll always go see every other production of the thing that I’m doing. I like to use the library at Lincoln Center because they have a video of every show that’s ever been done, so you can go and see what other actors did, and how other versions were directed. I believe in the idea that most art is theft, and it’s almost impossible to duplicate what someone else did, but if they have a good idea, I’m all for taking it.”

It’s funny: had Schreiber not been thwarted from his regularly scheduled programming, he might have seen just how effusive critical praise of his Roundabout Theatre Company production has been since its March 7 opening at the Todd Haimes Theatre.

Regardless, he is personally pleased with the performance, despite its rough beginning, saying, “I think it’s gone incredibly well, which is really a testament to Amy and how quickly she got up to speed.” It is not just Ryan, who plays Sister Aloysius to his Father Flynn, but their chemistry together that has been deemed “electric” and the Scott Ellis-directed revival “excellent,” among other positive appraisals of the play, which revolves around a no-nonsense nun (Ryan), who suspects a charming, charismatic priest (Schreiber) of having an inappropriate relationship with a student. Without evidence, she is forced to distinguish fact from fiction. Doubt, which is set in the 1960s, examines how people manage feelings of uncertainty a still-relevant topic in today’s political climate. Playwright John Patrick Shanley shows that things fall apart when people focus on being right instead of discovering the truth.

Father Flynn is a plumb part for any true thespian, which is why Schreiber ultimately signed on to play it despite knowing that, on paper, he was too “old” for the role. The character, after all, a man from a working-class family in the Northeast, is described as a man in his late thirties. But with Daly, together, they had written a new narrative, one where his character, in his 56-year-old body, represented a new idea, while Daly, at 78, symbolized outdated, old-school thinking. But in playing opposite Ryan, who is one year his junior, they had to develop a new way of thinking. Father Flynn became the patriarchy, and Sister Aloysius, a woman confronted with a patriarchal system.

“I just felt that, 20 years later, with the hindsight of what happened in the Catholic Church, I needed to work extra hard to support the arguments of faith and innocence,” he explains, adding, “Because, of course, 20 years later, we know that there was a big problem within the church, which the ‘Spotlight’ team exposed.” [He’s referring to the Boston Globe’s “Spotlight” team, the oldest

continuously operating investigative journalism unit in America, which earned a 2003 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service after uncovering widespread child sex abuse by numerous Catholic priests in the Boston area. A 2016 film, in which Schreiber starred as Globe editor Marty Baron, and which won the 2016 Academy Award for Best Picture, also documented the team.] He warms to his theme, continuing, “Also, after spending seven years on Ray Donovan playing a guy who was a victim of a priest’s sexual abuse and then doing Spotlight, it occurred to me that it might be worth looking at the other side of that argument, that there had to be some validity to it given the millions and millions of faithful Catholics that are out there and who got lost in the mix of this massive litigious period in our history, the people who meant to do good. What happened to them in this process, and to their faith? It’s a great question. John Shanley has structured this incredible play that allows us to hold some doubt around our certitude, at least in that area.”

Schreiber wanted answers, so he made his way uptown to Mount Saint Vincent’s convent in the Bronx and met with 15 predominantly unemployed nuns. Those that do have jobs mostly work in palliative care, but they are no longer running Catholic schools, as they might have in the 1960s. “I was just asking them simple questions such as, ‘How did you become a nun?’” he recalls. “And I would listen to these girls from the Bronx who were saying, ‘Well, my friend Maureen had an interview, so I went with her. I don’t know why I became a nun — I just know that I always wanted to do good with my life.’ It really struck me: where is that generation?”

In playing Father Flynn, Schreiber accrued more questions than answers. After internalizing this inherent goodness, the sheer lack of it in today’s society struck him hard. “I immediately thought of my kids, and realized that this option of giving, this kind of spiritual generosity — where you would want to spend your life trying to do good for others, trying to make the world a better place, trying to bring peace and happiness and love to people — is almost unthinkable in our culture today. We’ve become so self-involved in our journey, and I think that social media has contributed to that by polarizing us and tribalizing us even further for the purposes of marketing. Meeting these 80-something-year-old men and women who just wanted to do good with their lives resonated with me in a very powerful way.”

As did his discussion with Doug Hughes, the director of the inaugural Doubt production, 20 years ago. “Doug said that, for him, the parable was the Iraq War, and our certainty that we were going into that as a response to September 11. It never occurred to me when I saw the play before, but then I thought, He’s right.”

Being that Schreiber is an intelligent, inquisitive, and highly analytical man, he naturally drew his own personal parables from his research. “Mine mostly have to do with the intense polarization that I’m feeling in this country and how we are unable to pass an aid bill for the Ukraine. I believe we are on the front line of a war on democracy right now, and that there will be repercussions of ignoring the struggles and the sufferings of those people. Not because I’m Ukrainian — I’m American but because it’s a terrible blow to democracy around the world. We’re no longer interested in progress: red and blue has become more important than red, white, and blue, and there are already tragic repercussions that will only continue to get worse if we continue in this direction. I’m worried about the environment we’re creating for our children and our children’s children.”

Schreiber, whose maternal grandfather was a Jewish immigrant from the Ukraine, recently wrote an article for Time magazine that vocalized all of these thoughts in a concise way. He speaks of this now, saying, “It was hard. I wanted to define and get clarity about the shared morality and values that are inherently American without going back generations, when there was a spirit of something in this country that propelled us through a couple of great wars and into a time of great prosperity. I was thinking about the value of democracy for me, and what it means to be American. It’s been a lot of things in the past couple hundred years, but what is it now? For me, it was about realizing that I have been put in a position to succeed, that my ancestors had to suffer so that I could be in this place — and that doesn’t have anything to do with Ukraine.”

It must be exhausting to carry such a terribly cumbersome weight every night for months — at the very least until the play wraps on April 21 — but it certainly seems to helps Schreiber. Yet, he is adamant that this is something he pulls out when absolutely necessary; only when it is imperative to do so will he use his pain as a weapon. “It motivates you when you need to be motivated and it makes you emotional when you need to be emotional,” he declares, before referencing a specific Hassidic quote that he cites as his favorite, which translates to this: There is nothing so whole as a broken heart.

“That’s how I feel about what’s happening in Gaza and Israel, and I think that this is an inherent part of Jewish thinking — that we live with the complexity of something before we commit to the right course of action — and I think that was in place for me before we began this play,” he noets. “This conflict has been front of mind for me a lot recently, the loss of life, the pain, and the suffering that those people are going through, figuring out how to move forward from that. I think that I’ve been able to harness a lot of those emotions and things in this production. Those feelings are there, they’re present for me.”

It was just as important to do this play, he says, because — much like Spotlight it felt like a discovery, an excavation of the truth. The heart of Doubt is not about a sex scandal, per se, but what we do when we’re confused, when we feel too much, and are too close to an issue to really be objective. “When we’re not sure, we commit to an idea,” he says. “We don’t investigate. We don’t live in doubt. We don’t try to figure out the truth. That, for me, is the resonance of the play right now. In exploring, becoming, and playing, it opens your mind to that possibility of having doubt, of not sticking to one idea.”

He then references Doubt’s opening sermon. “The last thing Father Flynn says is, ‘I know there are a bunch of people in church today who are having this crisis of faith, and I just want to say to you, doubt can be a bond as powerful and sustaining as certainty. When you are lost, you are not alone.’ And that idea — that doubt is a unifying concept and that what we share as human beings is our doubt — is so fantastic. What it says to me is that we are a community of lost, confused souls who need to rely on each other. We’ve all got issues, but the thing that binds us together is that we’re unsure — and that gives us confidence. I personally love the idea that doubt is a unifying concept. It’s a powerful tool in our society, and one that we need now perhaps more than ever.”

expect Liev Schreiber to be stern and extremely serious when I meet him over Zoom on a Thursday morning. I am pleasantly surprised when the conversation immediately turns to... raccoons. Yes, you read that right.

He tells me that he’s a little wobbly because Wednesday was a two-show day, and that he hasn’t had coffee yet. It is 11 a.m. I am aghast, and equally impressed that he’s actually functioning. How can one do this?

“It’s the phone,” he moans. “The phone is ruining my life. I lie in bed on the fucking phone for four hours and I write emails. I look at stupid videos. It’s just a total waste of my life. But there it is, I’m mostly looking at animal videos, and they mostly involve raccoons.”

Admittedly, it’s surprising to me. But his reason for said copious raccoon viewing is extremely logical, and very much part of his personality. “When you’re trying to figure this world out, when you’re looking at the horrors of Ukraine and Gaza, when you’re dealing with kids and schedules, and all of the things one has to do when one is older than 15, sometimes it helps to look at a raccoon,” he admits.

Schreiber undoubtedly has a lot on his plate. There’s the show; parenting (he has children Sasha and Kai with ex-girlfriend Naomi Watts, and fivemonth-old daughter Hazel with wife Taylor Neisen); a slew of upcoming projects; his production company, Illuminated Content; his liquor label, Sláinte Irish Whiskey; and his latest effort, BlueCheck, a collective of humanitarian crisis experts, entrepreneurs, academics, and filmmakers working to help Ukrainians where and when they need it.

This is an important piece to the puzzle of Liev Schreiber in that it hits close to home; he himself is part Ukrainian. When he realized that international

organizations were not able to provide rapid on-site assistance in times of crisis and were reluctant to enter war zones, he decided to do something about it, and opted to help local organizations receive funding. With BlueCheck, he can provide medical care and distribution, food and relief, emergency evacuation, mental health services, shelter rehabilitation and construction, and cash assistance to internally displaced people and refugees, among other things.

“All you ever want in life is to just feel connected and like your life’s not a waste of time; I certainly felt that way after coming off of seven years of [his hit Showtime series] Ray Donovan [which wrapped in 2022]. I’m not dismissive of Ray, but playing such a dark character over and over again was difficult. Ray was a guy who was abused as a kid and has these pretty violent reactions to the world as a result; his is not a nice story. And playing Ray — becoming Ray — was dark for me for a long time,” he admits, noting, “Which is probably why I got involved in the Ukraine. I started BlueCheck because I wanted to feel more engaged, and I wanted this for myself, but also for my kids — I wanted them to know what it was like to care and to not be apathetic, which is something that happens to us relatively easily.”

When the war in the Ukraine first started, he recalls watching the news with his children and realizing that he had never properly given them a sense of their Ukrainian heritage. “They didn’t care or know where I was from or who I was or any of those things, and pretty much, I didn’t either. I think that’s why I became an actor, honestly, to try to figure those things out.”

Maybe he didn’t give his kids a sense of their ancestry, but he certainly has always taught them to give back. Every year, they head to the Bowery Mission on Thanksgiving Day to feed the homeless. And now, they’ll have this. “For me, initially, BlueCheck Ukraine was really about that — for my kids to say, ‘Look, these people are suffering. We watched them on the news, and we couldn’t just go back to our lives without doing something about it.’”

Schreiber’s philanthropic nature even extends to things that bring him pleasure, like Sláinte. His Irish whiskey label (whose name means “good health”) began in an auspicious way. He was hosting a charity gala in Washington, D.C., which was attended by Richard Davies, a man who donated a $350,000 cask of 18-year-old Irish whiskey as an auction lot. Each $500 bottle — initially aged in bourbon oak barrels, and finished in sherry casks — benefitted BlueCheck’s relief efforts. But it was to be a one-time only thing, or so Schreiber thought.

“Richard said, ‘I want to keep doing this.’ I was thinking, I don’t want to sell liquor, but mostly it was because I’ve got enough to do; I didn’t want another job. It’s hard work and I don’t know that I’m very good at it,” he admits, though with a smile. It’s very clear that he loves this unexpected venture.

When I protest that this couldn’t possibly be true, he says, “Well, I’m not a great actor in real life. I don’t like saying, Hey, listen to me — I know about Irish whiskey. But the truth is I do know a little bit about Irish whiskey. That’s one of the few things I can say that I know, so I had to say yes. But promotion is hard; selling things really is uncomfortable, and it’s especially hard for me because I’m such a cynic.” Even, as it turns out, when it comes to things he actually believes in. “Even then, it depends on me being confident about me, which I’m not nearly as much as people think I am — that’s why I’m an actor. I’m only truly confident with characters.”

But for Sláinte, his now award-winning whiskey, he’ll give it his best shot. Or, at least, he’ll try. “I’ve gotten over it. Well, I’m trying to get over it. I think it’s been an ongoing process for me because I really do believe in what I’m doing. I love Irish whiskey. This is the best Irish whiskey on the market right now in my opinion. It’s incredibly evocative.”

And he does love his tipple, but what he loves most is that it has personal significance. “I didn’t grow up with my father, but I spent some really good time with him in college, and that was initiated by him coming over to my ‘dorm,’ — a pod, really — with a bottle of Irish whiskey. That was the most time we ever spent together talking. And so, that drink is imbued with that experience. It’s got a richness to it, and a specificity of flavor for me that is very deep and very emotional. Plus, the guy who made the blend with us, Brian Watts, was the master distiller at [Ireland’s Great Northern Distillery], and this was the last thing he ever did. That holds a lot of meaning for me, as it does being

SOMETHING GETS INSIDE MY HEAD, IT DOESN’T GO AWAY.”

able to support the Ukraine through our brand, that we’re able to give a dollar for every bottle we sell to BlueCheck. That feels good; it feels purposeful.”

I wonder if it’s fair to say that everything he does in life is with purpose, and he cautions me not to assume so. Anything to feed his soul, definitely. Everything else? Not so much. “It would not be fair to say it’s true,” he says. “I work for hire, as they say, and like to make money. I have a growing family. The older I get, the more I think I want it to matter when I work. Of course, it doesn’t always — in fact, it rarely does — but it’s nice when it does, when one of your jobs means something to people. That feels good, like the job does what it was supposed to do in the beginning, which is to connect you to people. When you’re young, you think that’s what being famous will do, make you happy, make you desired. And then you realize that’s not the case.”

Job-wise, Schreiber certainly has more experience than most. In addition to his copious, Tony-winning turns on Broadway in plays like A View from the Bridge, Glengarry Glen Ross, Macbeth, and Talk Radio, his film credits include Asteroid City, Golda, The Butler, Salt, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Defiance, The Manchurian Candidate, Taking Woodstock, Kate & Leopold, Hamlet, and the Scream trilogy. On the television side, there were his seven seasons of Ray Donovan, as well as his portrayal of Orson Welles in RKO 281, which earned him both Emmy and Golden Globe Award nominations. He also made his directorial debut in 2005 with Everything Is Illuminated.

Surely, some of these efforts made him happy, though the character he plays in his upcoming project certainly did not. Yet, that was kind of the point: playing someone he truly didn’t like was both a test and true testament to his acting skills. Schreiber will star in Netflix’s new limited series The Perfect Couple, based on Elin Hilderbrand’s New York Times best-selling novel of the same name, opposite Nicole Kidman later this year. It revolves around the secrets that are spilled when a young bride’s maid of honor turns up dead during the morning of her Nantucket wedding to a wealthy heir.

“It was bizarre,” he declares of filming the series. “I play a character that I would never, ever have wanted to play. But this is the thing: actors — for the most part — must find a way to not only like the person they’re playing but to love them. That may not be true for everybody, but that’s what I believe. They are more than family — they are you — and so, unless you’re suicidal, you’ve got to figure out how to connect with them. This was probably one of the hardest exercises for me in that I honestly didn’t like [my character, Tag Winbury, the groom’s father]; he was one of the worst people I’d ever read. I didn’t want to do it (but the director, Susanne Bier) just said, ‘You have to jump, you have to just leap off of it and do it.’ I said, ‘No, I don’t want to do it’ and ‘I don’t have to do anything,’ but I did decide to jump with her, and with Nicole. It was a leap of faith. And it’s good to do something where you’re thinking, It might not work out; this might not be good. And someone says, ‘Go anyway, take a risk’ and you do. There’s something about that that feels good.”

Schreiber says that feeling good was a major part of the reason he signed on for Doubt, as well. “I didn’t have a great experience on the last play I did [2016’s Les Liaisons Dangereuses]. It came right at a really hard time in my life. I had just gotten separated. I was living alone with my kids in the Financial District, and I wanted to be close to Nay [his ex-partner, Naomi Watts]. I was doing a play

Top

that I couldn’t relate to, about sexual carnivores. It was not a good time in my life, and I was just really lost. I think the choice to do a play again was partially about that; partially about getting back on the horse and not worrying about it: like: If you suck, you suck.”

He shakes his head. “So much of my own personal journey has been getting over that attachment to not sucking, not being bad at something. Which is funny, because the whole principle of acting is that to be good at it, you have to be willing to make a fool of yourself. You have to be willing to be a jackass. You forget that sometimes, because when you do something for a while, people think you’re good or attractive — something you want to be in real life — but it was just a character that you created. I think that’s the problem with fame; you start to believe your own press. A real career in the arts is about trying to figure out identity. My consistent hang up has been this thing about not wanting to suck, about trying to be smart and elevated, so it was an exciting thing to do the play because it felt like a risk, just like The Perfect Couple did.”

It is quite clear that Schreiber, though he may refer to himself as a work-forhire, blatantly is not. He has choice, and the ability to take risks. He has the freedom to spend 20 minutes doing his favorite thing — noodling on the piano — even if he can’t sit there for three hours as he wishes, looking up random Stevie Wonder songs on the internet and attempting to learn them. He also has freedom itself — and that is not lost on him.

“I’m just so desperate for everyone to recognize the value of it and the existence of it in their own lives. What happens if we lose it, when freedom starts to get wheeled away, when those liberties start to get taken away from us?”

Yet, recognizing and appreciating what he has hasn’t always been easy for him, either. “Reminding myself how lucky I am to have the freedom that I do is something that I’ve always personally struggled with. My whole life, people have spoken about gratitude. I still struggle with it, that feeling, that happiness that comes from being grateful. Maybe I’m doing it wrong,” he muses.

I doubt it, but as he himself said, one should always have doubt. And if that doesn’t work, well, there’s always raccoon videos.

IN HONOR OF EARTH DAY (APRIL 22) WE SAT DOWN WITH LIVIA FIRTH, MBE, THE founder of the Green Carpet Fashion Awards, a sustainable ceremony uniting the power of fashion and entertainment for positive transformation, which returned for its second annual event during Oscar week. Championing interconnected cultural change and the most inspiring efforts that drive it, the GCFA, and its recent initiative, the Green Carpet Challenge, celebrates people and organizations that are crucial to collective transformation. This year’s event was co-chaired by some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Cate Blanchett, Julianne Moore, Zendaya, Annie Lennox, and Helen Hunt, as well as Quannah Chasinghorse, Minister of Indigenous People of Brazil Sônia Guajajara, and Ugandan climate justice activist Vanessa Nakate. We sat down with Firth to discuss how she’s making the world a better place, one fashionable footstep at a time.

What made you start the Green Carpet Challenge and how has it evolved? When I started it in 2010, it was out of the coming together of different factors: an opportunity — [estranged husband Colin Firth] being nominated for Tom Ford’s A Single Man movie and knowing that, throughout awards season, people would start focusing on what I was wearing; a realization — fashion has one of the biggest environmental and social impacts, and yet, no one thinks about that when they get dressed in the morning; and a fact — there is no bigger communication platform than the red carpet. The evolution has been almost directly proportionate with the amplification it wanted to have — from being just me, to challenging the designers, to involving the celebrities and the stylists, to getting the sustainable fashion conversation mainstream. From Green Carpet Challenge, we went into Green Carpet Fashion Awards and 14 years later, it is one of the biggest platforms to promote transformation in a positive way.

What is the overlying purpose of the challenge and awards? How do you specifically give back to the environment?

It’s about all of us understanding the connection that fashion has. As Dan McDougall (Amnesty Award-winning journalist and filmmaker) says, ‘“fashion is the only red line that runs through all our lives.” It represents one of the biggest connection points for hundreds of millions of people across our world. It’s like a chain reaction of individuals colliding with others and influencing their lives without realizing it. The GCFA puts together all these dots, it joins them, and hopefully, makes you look at the bigger picture and makes you want to participate in the change.

How did the Green Carpet Fashion Awards come to be, and how did you come up with the archetypes? Which women embodies each of these archetypes?

We needed to highlight archetypes that are needed in our society and with whom people can identify. It is not just about one kind of person, or one kind of job, or one kind of activist. We need healers, sages, rebels, and so on. In this

spirit, I don’t think anyone represents all of them; you can be a healer without being a rebel or a visionary, you know? And some days, you can feel like a rebel and others, you can feel like a messenger. I think I am an agitator (my title at work is even chief agitator officer). There is no archetype for that, but you just gave me the idea of creating that for next year’s edition!

It isn’t easy being green... or is it? How do you implement being ecofriendly into your everyday routine at home?

What if we substituted the word “eco-friendly” with “respect”? This is what it is about — having respect for “other” — whether it is the planet or the people around you or who make things for you, produce your food, your clothes, your car, and so on. How difficult it is to have respect?

Why is giving back so important to you?

It is about what I receive every day, not what I give every day. When you have a relationship of co-dependence, or the famous “I am because you are,” then my health, my wealth, and my well-being depend on what I give back. It’s this symbiotic relationship, or solidarity, that makes a difference.

What is the greatest luxury in life and why?

Time. We do not have it anymore. We need to use it wisely if we want to save humanity. Earth will totally survive without us, and sometimes, I think may be even better.

Looking ahead, Haute Living gives an exclusive glimpse into the Dior Fall 2024 collection, where Maria Grazia Chiuri finds a keen sense of inspiration in New York. With the collection, Chiuri initiates a conversation between Paris and New York, spotlighting a dialogue with two emblematic prints: the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower, which adorn numerous styles and silhouettes.

HERMÈS

In March, Los Angeles welcomed the Hermès Parade, an immersive live performance that highlighted the importance of storytelling, a fundamental value that lies at the heart of the Hermès brand. Directed by acclaimed choreographer Philippe Decouflé and curated by the artistic directors of the Hermès home universe, Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry, the event spotlighted the brand’s home collection in a narrative that bridged form, material, and functionality. The performance featured 56 dancers who, through a series of 70 non-linear acts, brought over 400 objects to life, ranging from furniture and lighting to textiles and tableware.

UNBOUNDED EXPLOrATION

For the Women’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection, Nicolas Ghesquière explored the meaning of travel that is innately woven into the Louis Vuitton DNA. For the designer, “Vuitton is a luxury brand, but it’s about function; it provides a service: to travel better. Mobility is important in clothes.”

DISCOVER LOUIS VUITTON’S FORAY INTO TABLEWARE, MASTERING DINING IN STYLE.

If you’ve had the chance to dine at one of Louis Vuitton’s cafés, such as the one in Saint-Tropez last summer at the White 1921 hotel with Michelin-starred chefs Arnaud Donckele and Maxime Frédéric, chances are you’ve dined with the Maison’s bespoke tableware. Last November, Louis Vuitton made its grand entry into the world of fine dining as it presented its first tableware collection.

Now a permanent addition to the brand’s repertoire, its dinnerware is divided into three distinct lines that celebrate the Maison’s Monogram flower: the Monogram Flower Tile tableware, the Twist Glass series, and the Flower Carafes. Each collection further establishes Louis Vuitton’s commitment to redefining the idea of “art de vivre,” introducing a Louis Vuitton feel to dining settings.

Crafted from Limoges porcelain, the Monogram Flower Tile tableware range features a minimalist white-and-blue color scheme, and for the summer 2024 season, the Maison is introducing the set in a beige colorway. Each piece showcases the graphic elaboration of the Louis Vuitton’s emblematic Monogram flower, adorned with subtle watercolor effects set against an ultra-white backdrop. From dainty plates to ample bowls, the collection ensures that a touch of luxury graces every table.

Complementing the porcelain line, the Twist Glass series is designed in crystal clear and shades of sapphire blue, amber, emerald, and Venetian ruby. The series of glasses adds an artistic flair to the table with a dynamic design featuring a swirling shape that ascends from the Monogram flower at the base. In addition to the Twist Glass line, the Flower Carafes echo the glasses’ color palette and delicate transparency. These decanters are a nod to the revered Murano glass-making tradition, crafted with the expertise of Simone Cenedese to ensure each piece carries a unique character.

In the Objets Nomades realm is the Blossom Vase By Tokujin Yoshioka. Hand-crafted by master glassblowers in Murano, Italy, each vase features a thick, smooth swirl of glass in various versions — clear, eye-catching black, or colored — serving as either a practical vessel for a bouwquet or a stunning decorative piece on its own.

Pairing perfectly with the Summer 2024 tableware collection, Louis Vuitton is unveiling Objets Nomades like the Diamond Vase by Marcel Wonders, the Lantern PM by Zanellato and Bortotto, the Bell Lamp by Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby alongside porcelain pieces like the Petite Malle Porcelain Vase, the Porcelain Vase Petite Boîte Chapeau and the Malle Fleurs.

Louis Vuitton has indeed perfected the art of dining, demonstrating that there is nothing beyond the Maison’s design reach.

This summer, Dior transforms its iconic Lady Dior handbag once again with the unveiling of the Lady D-Sire as its latest iteration. Following the debut of the Lady 95.22 last year, the Lady D-Sire explores the architectural lines that have defined the Lady Dior bag, introducing a new contemporary silhouette for the bag. Ahead, Haute Living offers an exclusive look into the impeccable savoir-faire behind the Lady D-Sire at Dior ateliers.

As its name suggests, the Lady D-Sire is crafted as a true object of desire. Perhaps the most notable aspect of the bag is its shape, skewing a bit more rectangular than the Lady Dior, ultimately creating a more elegant, ladylike look. The handbag is meticulously designed in two fabrications at the ateliers: luxurious crumpled leather on the signature graphics of the Macrocannage in black, as well as grained Taurillon leather in a neutral color palette.

Similar in style to the Lady Dior, each handbag is adorned with “D, I, O, R” charms in a lustrous gold hue;the sizes of the Lady D-Sire range from small to extra-large. Designed with versatility in mind, it has folding handles and adjustable straps. Both sophisticated and cool, consider the Lady D-Sire a new Dior classic.

HOUSE CODES

Chanel’s Fine Jewelry collections extend beyond beautiful pieces of jewelry;they serve as reminders of the inspiration that once led Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel to create the House’s signature design motifs. From the N°5 Fine Jewelry collection paying tribute to her lucky number (five) and the Première Edition Originale watch, originally designed in 1987 with the octagonal shape of the stopper of the N°5 Perfume bottle, to the Coco Crush collection that gives a nod to the House’s quilted motif, these pieces carry a part of Coco Chanel in them.

SETTING A NEW STANDARD

Discover the 2024 Louis Vuitton high watchmaking novelties.

BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE

IN EARLY MARCH, MAJOR NEWS CAME OUT OF LA FABRIQUE DU Temps Louis Vuitton as the Maison revealed the 2024 High Watchmaking Novelties. With seven new timepieces making their debut, one common theme is woven throughout the collection: the art of watchmaking. From the exquisite range of Métiers d’art on the dials to new techniques and artist collaborations, the artistry of La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton has set a new precedent in the horological world.

TAMBOUR MOON FLYING TOURBILLON “POINÇON DE GENÈVE” SAPPHIRE FRANK GEHRY

Louis Vuitton has always been a major proponent of the arts, so it comes as no surprise that La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton and renowned architect Frank Gehry have furthered their longstanding collaboration with a timepiece. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris and the Louis Vuitton store in Seoul — two of Gehry’s most celebrated projects — this timepiece stands as a testament to unparalleled architectural beauty. Crafted with complete transparency, the watch offers a clear view of the sophisticated flying tourbillon movement, meticulously produced, and assembled by La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton and distinguished by the prestigious “Poinçon de Genève” seal.

LOUIS VUITTON ESCALE CABINET OF WONDERS

Echoing the same dedication to the arts as the Tambour Moon Flying Tourbillon “Poinçon de Genève” Sapphire Frank Gehry, the new trilogy of Louis Vuitton Escale watches charts the brand’s voyage through artisan craftsmanship, with each piece serving as a horological work of art on the dial. This trio of limited-edition timepieces — Dragon’s Cloud, Koï’s Garden, and Snake’s Jungle — draws inspiration from Gaston-Louis Vuitton’s private collections of rare objects, including antique tsubas (highly decorated Japanese katana sword guards).

LOUIS VUITTON TAMBOUR SLIM VIVIENNE JUMPING HOURS SAKURA AND ASTRONAUT

Taking inspiration from the Vivienne, a motif created in 2017 and derived from the signature Monogram Flower, the two new jumping hour watches — Sakura Vivienne and Astronaut Vivienne — are a testament to the Maison’s skill in combining the inventive jumping hour mechanism with the intricate art of advanced watchmaking. The Tambour Slim Vivienne Jumping Hours Astronaut is equipped with the LV 180 Caliber, an automatic mechanical movement with a unique double aperture jumping hour complication, meticulously developed, and assembled by La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton. Encased in 18K white gold and adorned with brilliant and rosecut diamonds, this exquisite timepiece boasts an aventurine dial that is complemented by a blue Taurillon leather strap.

VOYAGER FLYING TOURBILLON “POINÇON DE GENÈVE” PLIQUE-À-JOUR

Perhaps the more futuristic of all the novelties, the Voyager Flying Tourbillon “Poinçon de Genève” Plique-À-Jour is a contemporary stained-glass masterpiece that showcases the flawless flying tourbillon movement crafted at La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton, and is adorned with the esteemed “Poinçon de Genève” seal. As Louis Vuitton often does to create something modern, it looks back. Louis Vuitton revives the intricate “plique-à-jour” technique, a method without backing that dates back to Byzantine artisans, choosing the exceptionally difficult Western “percé” method for its Voyager watch dial, transforming it into a miniature, modern stained-glass artwork through meticulous enamel application. The result is a technical marvel that offers unparalleled clarity and luminosity, featuring a white gold dial adorned with interlocking Vs and a captivating gradient of blues, and showcasing a fresh and luminous reinterpretation of this ancient craft.

A NEW SONG

Audemars Piguet taps watch aficionado John Mayer to design a new Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar.

BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE

“MY FAVORITE WATCHES HAVE DIALS THAT YOU CAN ENDLESSLY stare at. A great watch dial feels like a picture window — you look into it, not at it. In the case of this QP, it’s like looking up at a moonless sky. There is a true sense of nature in it. And when you couple that sense of depth and vastness with the complication of a perpetual calendar, it is a very powerful combination of technical prowess and esthetic design,” notes John Mayer on his new creation with Audemars Piguet. As I was poking through the release of the new timepiece, one thing remained clear to me: Mayer’s deep connection to timepieces and their intricacies almost mirror his deep connection to the lyrics in his [many] acclaimed songs. Mayer’s passions run deep, and it couldn’t be clearer in his collaboration design of the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar equipped with the AP self-winding Caliber 5134.

As a long-time friend of AP, a watch enthusiast, and now the “Creative Conduit” for the brand, Mayer has combined his knack and fascination for timepieces with the esteemed heritage of AP to partner on the new Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar “John Mayer” Limited Edition, produced in only 200 copies.

At the surface, the watch is simply stunning with a dynamic dial that echoes Mayer’s sentiment on the dial becoming a “picture window,” combining 18K white gold with a new “Crystal Sky” dial in a range of blue hues. Mayer closely collaborated with the AP design teams to craft this dial, and through meticulous craftsmanship, the intricate pattern was formed atom by atom via electroforming. In this exclusive edition, the motif is presented in a rich blue hue using Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD), enhancing its depth and luminosity, while subdials and calendar indications offer functional elegance against the textured backdrop.

To improve the overall legibility, Mayer also introduced subtle modifications to the perpetual calendar display. For example, the “31”

of the date subdial is usually red on modern Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar models, but this time, it is printed in white. Also, the two numerals of the “31” are now smaller in size and slightly stepped to distinguish them from the adjacent “1.” He also selected a lighter blue shade for the week indicator that “could fall back into the dial when simply reading the time but could easily be found when looking to read the week complication,” as he explains. And for the first time, the “Swiss Made” inscription is printed in white at the bottom of the moon phase subdial rather than on the dial’s outer edge at six o’clock.

The Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar “John Mayer” Limited Edition will also be the last limited edition equipped with the brand’s self-winding perpetual calendar movement, Caliber 5134, marking the end to a legendary history that began over 45 years ago. Today, Caliber 5134 ensures accurate date tracking, accommodating leap years and requiring manual correction only once in 2100, while boasting a frequency of 2.75 Hz and a 40-hour power reserve. The caliber is shown through the sapphire caseback, revealing intricate decorations such as Côtes de Genève and a rhodium-toned 22-carat pink gold openworked oscillating weight adorned with Audemars Piguet’s signature Tapisserie motif.

For Mayer, there is no higher complication: “For me, the perpetual calendar is the ultimate complication, the benchmark for high horology, and though there are complications that are more complex, the historical footing of the QP in the history of watchmaking is what makes it stand out. Caliber 5134 will go down in history as one that defined an era of watch collecting — and public enthusiasm at large — for a complication that had not enjoyed that kind of attention and desire before,” he notes.

Heuer partners with Malbon Golf for an exclusive connected watch.

BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE

This collaboration marks a significant moment in the world of golfing timepieces, blending TAG Heuer’s pioneering spirit in luxury connected watches with Malbon Golf’s innovative approach to golf fashion.

Since its foray into the connected watch space in 2015, TAG Heuer has established itself as a frontrunner, particularly with the golfing community, thanks to the Connected Calibre E4 Golf Edition launched in 2022. The partnership with Malbon Golf, a brand that has quickly become synonymous with a creative and lifestyle-oriented approach to golf since its inception in 2017, heralds a fresh perspective on golfing apparel and accessories.

Redefining golf culture (and style, for that matter), the watch is equipped with the TAG Heuer Golf application, serving as a wrist-worn caddie that tracks shots, recommends clubs, and provides distance information — all without interrupting the game. With over 650,000 users, the application embodies a new era of golfing, where technology enhances the experience without overshadowing the essence of the game.

The design of the TAG Heuer Connected Calibre E4 45mm x Malbon Golf Edition speaks volumes about its golfing pedigree. It features a bezel marked with 18 points, representing each hole of a golf course, and showcases a vibrant mix of colors inspired by Malbon Golf’s branding. The lightweight Titan Grade II case with DLC coating, alongside the rubber and calfskin strap, underscores the watch’s readiness on and off the course.

This limited-edition watch introduces two unique watch faces, bringing the collaboration to life right on the wrist. The primary face displays the co-branded logo and an animated design, while the second draws inspiration from the iconic Heuer 02 design. The packaging further celebrates the partnership, with vibrant colors and co-branded logos adorning the box, complemented by additional straps and golf balls featuring the collaboration’s logo.

Expanding beyond the watch itself, TAG Heuer and Malbon have also collaborated on a capsule collection of golf-inspired merchandise, from performancefocused apparel to club covers, ultimately perfecting the ideal golf look.

2024 Aston Martin DB12

007 Never Had It So Good.

BY TIM LAPPEN

YOU LIKELY NOTICED THAT ASTON MARTIN HAS HAD A LONG RUN of cars starting with “DB.” That designation came from David Brown, the owner of the company from 1947. The company’s lineup has included a “DB”-branded car for more than 75 years.

The one-off, so to speak, in the run of numbers was the DB10 which, as it turns out, was made in very limited production (only ten units) for use in the 2014 James Bond film Spectre. That was quite the homage to a fifty-year collaboration between the James Bond films and the storied car manufacturer (the first such alliance being the DB5 in the 1964 film Goldfinger). Not long thereafter, the DB11 was announced, and it was a stunner. Large clamshell hood (all one piece with upper fenders attached, opening forward), as svelte as it was fast. So how to improve on that, which surprisingly has been around for over ten years? Behold the DB12.

This newest iteration of the Aston road kings dubbed by them as the “World’s First Super Tourer” is even more sculptural than its

predecessor. It’s a gorgeous machine but, even more surprisingly, it’s quicker, quieter, and even more comfortable than the DB11 that it replaces. It even was named car of the year by a prestigious car magazine, beating out the McLaren Artura and the Bentley Flying Spur Speed.

So, what does it take to create such a winner? Starting with the V8 motor, the DB12 has over 670 horsepower with 590 pound feet of torque, potent enough to motivate this big touring machine (weighing about two tons) from zero to 60 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds. The twin-turbo engine is mated to a very slick eight-speed transmission an automatic trans which can be driven in manual mode with the paddle shifters. Thoughtfully, there’s even an exhaust-sound adjustment button and several driving modes GT, Sport, Sport+, Individual, and Wet. Needless to say, my normal start-up sequence includes the loud button, choosing the Sport+ mode, selecting the manual transmission and reducing (or completely turning off) the traction-control switch.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF ASTON MARTIN

As a long-time devotee of the brand, I can say that Astons present several delights, including their sinuous lines and sleek, sumptuous curves. When opening the door, you get to experience the wafting sweet fragrance of premium leather and marvel at the beautiful tooling that presents interesting designs. Sliding into the driver’s seat, you feel coddled, almost like wearing a custom suit that’s well-made and fitted. And when firing up the motor, you can’t wait to drive off, at one with the machine, loving the ergonomics, sound, and speed.

While this two-plus-two (which, as usual, has a small back seat) coupe is heavier than many sports cars, the performance is impressive. With an impressive a top speed just north of 200 miles per hour, what struck me most was the way the car rode so smoothly, especially on uneven surfaces, and then handled through the corners like a slot car. No doubt, the 22-inch wheels help, but the new adaptive dampers and first-of-its-kind Aston e-differential get most of the credit. When added to the new Michelin Pilot Sport 5 S tires (developed specifically for the DB12) that include what’s become de rigueur — noise-cancelling foam inserts inside each tire — the DB12’s road-going manners are awesome. Often, power and performance are the enemy of calm and comfort, and vice versa, but this latest Aston does both so well that it truly is a grand tourer.

Another major improvement over the DB11 is that this newer model has its own switchgear, rather than having it come from the MercedesBenz parts bin, as Aston had done for many years. The result is that everything each driver touches is metal or leather-wrapped and feels substantial and luxurious. The new transmission seems slicker and smoother-shifting than the earlier version and the lower rear-end gearing makes for a quicker response time when accelerating. “My” DB12 had the optional Bowers & Wilkins 15-speaker 1,170-watt sound system, which added to the aural delights, especially as the car can be quiet enough to really enjoy the music, be it Billy Joel, Aaron Copland, Robbie Williams, The Fugs, or Blodwyn Pig (now that’s a playlist!)

As a side note, at press time for this story, I also was able to enjoy the drop-top version of this fine machine, the DB12 Volante, but that’s a tale for another time since the information embargo imposed on the Volante extends until after this article goes to press. Stay tuned, though, as it’s a real stunner.

I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so you may not agree with my raves about the design of the DB12, but when coupled with exemplary performance, comfort, world-class handling, and more, the DB12 coupe is one of the top grand touring cars made today — a Super Tourer indeed.

THE FORMULA 1 EXPERIENCE

Where to stay in the lap of luxury as F1 races around the globe.

BY LAURA SCHREFFLER

THE MIAMI GRAND PRIX, MAY 3-5

STAY AT: THE SETAI, MIAMI BEACH

For the three-year anniversary of Formula One’s arrival in Miami, simultaneously celebrate another milestone as the iconic, super-private property The Setai celebrates its 20th birthday. This ultra-luxe oceanfront escape on the fringes of South Beach is an Art Deco paradise, surrounded by palm trees, with three pools set to different temperatures; a private beach club; an award-winning spa in partnership with luxe skincare line Valmont; and a Clefs d’Or concierge team who can (appropriately) make magic happen in the Magic City. Just in time for the anniversary, the hotel has opened JAPÓN, a 1,000-square foot Japanese restaurant overlooking The Setai courtyard. 2001 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139

STAY AT: THE PENINSULA SHANGHAI

One of the most elevated places to stay while in Shanghai for the Grand Prix is the Peninsula Shanghai, located on the riverside Bund, with views of the Huangpu River and Pudong. This art deco masterpiece pays homage to the city’s past, specifically the 1920s and 1930s. It is an ideal place to stay at to watch all the action, in part because of its upscale offerings, which include an exquisitely appointed Azimut Verve 47 private yacht for breakfast or sunset cruises and chauffeured guided tours in one of the property’s fleets of Rolls-Royce Extended Wheelbase Phantoms, Peninsula Edition 7-series BMW cars, and bespoke MINI Cooper S Clubmans. There’s also Michelin starred dining at Cantonese eatery Yi Long Court and luxury shopping from brands such as Chanel, Harry Winston, and Brioni at the Peninsula Arcade. China, Shang Hai Shi, Huangpu, Waitan, 中山东一路32号 邮政编码: 200002

THE GRAN PREMIO DELL’EMILIAROMAGNA “IMOLA” GRAND PRIX, BOLOGNA, MAY 17-19

STAY AT: GRAND HOTEL MAJESTIC GIÀ BAGLIONI

Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region is one of the go-to destinations for motorsport enthusiasts given that it is home to the Motor Valley as well as the Scuderia Ferrari and Visa Cash App RB Formula One Team. That said, absolutely go for the race, but make sure to enjoy the glorious beaches and haute cuisine that are at your disposal as well. The former can be found in spades at Bologna’s most prestigious hotel, the Grand Hotel Majestic già Baglioni, located in the heart of the city on Via dell’Indipendenza within walking distance of the famous Due Torri and Piazza Maggiore. This haute hotel was originally built as an archdiocesan seminary in the 18th century by order of Cardinal Prospero Lambertini, who later became Pope. It is an epic place to understand the past — whose story is told through the frescoed ceilings by Agostino, Annibale, and Ludovico Carracci at I Carracci restaurant — while enjoying the present with its modern amenities and stylish suites. Via dell’Indipendenza, 8, 40121 Bologna BO, Italy

MONACO GRAND PRIX, MONTE CARLO, MAY 23-26

STAY AT: HOTEL METROPOLE MONTE CARLO

With its location in the Carré d’Or, a few steps from the Casino and the Hercules port, right on the actual racetrack, Hotel Metropole Monte Carlo is the most exciting place to stay for Formula One’s most glamorous race. The prestigious hotel affords views of the cars — best seen from the terrace of Les Ambassadeurs by Christophe Cussac — as they exit Casino Square, race directly past the terrace, and brake hard to tackle the Mirabeau corner before disappearing into the Fairmont hairpin curve. But this elegant property offers so, so much more to affluent guests, inclusive of world-class cuisine from chef Christophe Cussac as well as the only Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant in Monaco at Yoshi; a spa by Givenchy; the stunning Odyssey pool designed by the late Karl Lagerfeld; as well as bespoke amenities like a Berluti shoeshine service. Check into the Azur suite during this year’s race for spectacular views of the track from the comfort of your room.

4 Av. de la Madone, 98000 Monaco

SPANISH GRAND PRIX, BARCELONA, JUNE 21-23

STAY AT: MANDARIN ORIENTAL, BARCELONA

Barcelona, Spain, is the ultimate party place, and race weekend at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is no exception: if anything, there’s even more to celebrate! This is why we’ve chosen a hotel that’s the complete antithesis to the party scene, an oasis of quiet luxury in bustling Barça. The Catalan experience is still provided here at the Mandarin Oriental, Barcelona with its unbeatable location on the famous Passeig de Gràcia, close to Gaudí’s Casa Batlló, just a short stroll away from Las Ramblas, the Gothic Quarter, and the best fashion and design stores in the city. The hotel also boasts some sensational F&B outlets, inclusive of two Michelin starred eatery Moments from the multi-awarded chef Carme Ruscalleda and her son, Raül Balam; Banker’s Bar; Mimosa Garden; and rooftop terrace restaurant Terrat. Pg. de Gràcia, 38-40, L’Eixample, 08007 Barcelona, Spain

CANADIAN GRAND PRIX, MONTREAL, JUNE 7-9

STAY AT: FOUR SEASONS HOTEL MONTREAL

The Canadian Grand Prix takes place just across the St. Lawrence River from the Four Seasons Montreal at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, but trust us when we say it’s worth the trip around the city; this glittering new addition to Montreal’s Golden Square Mile is utterly gorgeous. Herringbone wood floors, huge marble bathrooms, and a surrealistic landscape of modern art are highlights of the property, which also features a Guerlain spa and the Marcus Restaurant + Terrace, an exciting play on the traditional brasserie concept from Miami-based chef Marcus Samuelsson. During the 2023 race, the hotel hosted some excellent F1-centric experiences, inclusive of an afternoon with Tiffany & Co., a Clase Azul tequila tasting, and a Holt Renfrew fashion presentation. The hotel even created its own custom race car-inspired pastry for the occasion. Top that. 1440 Rue de la Montagne, Montréal, QC H3G 1Z5, Canada

BRITISH GRAND PRIX, SILVERSTONE, JULY 4-7

STAY AT: CLIVEDEN HOUSE

The very first Formula One race in the world took place at Silverstone in 1950, and to this day, this particular track is still considered to be one of the very best. Take the word of Lewis Hamilton, who, in 2018, compared a flat-out lap here to flying a fighter jet. While the track is technically in Northamptonshire, for those who are used to a five-star experience, do make the hour-long trip to Berkshire’s Cliveden House (which is, in fact, an hour closer than London). It is a property with pedigree and history, and that’s keenly felt the moment upon arrival at this 376-acre National Trust site, where the first recital of “Rule, Britannia!” was played, and which has hosted every Royal monarch since George I. Come for the proximity to Silverstone, the historical significance — each of its 47 rooms as well as the main mansion is named for a past guest, such as George Bernard Shaw, the Duchess of Sutherland, Prince Albert, and Lord Astor — the boathouse and boats, the luxurious spa, and the over-the-top topiary displays. Taplow, Berkshire SL6 0JF, United Kingdom

HUNGARIAN GRAND PRIX, BUDAPEST, JULY 19-21

STAY AT: MATILD PALACE, A LUXURY COLLECTION HOTEL

Matild Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel, is a great, central place in Budapest to take part in all the F1 action that’s just 13 miles away on the deft Hungaroring circuit. The property, though modernized, offers a breathtaking glimpse into the city’s past as a Belle Epoque-era palace, named after Her Imperial and Royal Highness Maria Klotild of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. As such, it’s no surprise that the most luxe accommodation is named after her majesty, with decor to match: a blend of modern and historical furniture, elegant chandeliers dripping with crystals, handmade glass mosaics, Calacatta Oro marble tubs, and parquet floors, with spectacular views of the Danube River just outside the hotel. The Royal experience is rounded out by dynamic dining and drinking offerings including Spago by Wolfgang Puck and The Duchess, a glamorous rooftop bar originally conceived as a secret liquor library for Hungarian socialites. Budapest, Váci u 36, 1056 Hungary

ITALIAN GRAND PRIX, MONZA, AUGUST 30 – SEPTEMBER 1

STAY AT: BULGARI HOTEL MILANO

The Italian Grand Prix is a very big deal in the F1 world, and though the race itself takes place in Monza (which first hosted the Italian Grand Prix in 1922 and became part of the official F1 calendar in 1950), we recommend staying in nearby Milan, the country’s fashion capital, a mere 10 miles away. There truly isn’t a more fashionable place to stay than the Buglari Hotel Milano, a couture property steps away from the city’s shopping hub of “Quadrilatero della moda” on via Fratelli Gabba, located near significant local landmarks like the Teatro alla Scala, Via Montenapoleone, Via della Spiga, and the Academia di Brera, in a gorgeously renovated 18th-century Milanese palazzo. Stay in the Bulgari Suite, with its ethereal rooftop garden, Murano glass chandeliers, Brera stone soaking tub, library, and private kitchen, for the most extravagant stay possible while enjoying amenities such as a shoeshine by Berluti service, cuisine courtesy of three-star Michelin chef Niko Romito, and a swimming pool with pure gold tiles to drive home the opulent esthetic. Via Privata Fratelli Gabba, 7B, 20121 Milano MI, Italy

SINGAPORE GRAND PRIX, SINGAPORE, SEPTEMBER 20-22

STAY AT: MARINA BAY SANDS SINGAPORE

When it comes to images of Singapore, there are very few as recognizable as Marina Bay Sands’ three majestic, interconnected towers. This integrated waterfront resort — which includes a 1,850-room hotel, a 1,300,000 square-foot convention and exhibition center, the 800,000 square-foot The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, a museum, one of the world’s largest rooftop infinity pools, a floating crystal pavilion, and a plethora of celebrity chef-driven eateries courtesy of Daniel Boulud, Gordon Ramsay, Wolfgang Puck, Tetsuya Wakuda, and more — is hands-down the one to beat. The property is currently in the midst of a massive renovation, now showcasing an esthetic that pays homage to the country’s multicultural vibe through decor inspired by Chinese screens akin to those found in a Peranakan shophouse, wool carpets featuring motifs similar to textiles found along Arab Street, and The Armoire, a bespoke minibar illustrated with a muted-gold chinoiserie pattern on shiny black lacquer that serves as an interpretation of “East meets West.” Meanwhile, the new Paiza Collection and Royal Paiza Collection suites are reserved for the property’s top VIPs. The Horizon suite features a spa zone with a Himalayan salt wall, hammam shower, heated ceramic lounge chairs, and treatment room with massage tables, while the Presidential suite is fully equipped with a state-of-the-art full swing golf simulator. The Chairman Suite is our personal favorite though — it has its very own karaoke room! 10 Bayfront Ave, Singapore 018956

UNITED STATES GRAND PRIX, AUSTIN, OCTOBER 18-20

STAY AT: THE LOREN AT LADY BIRD LAKE

Head to Austin’s hottest hotel, The Loren at Lady Bird Lake, for a stay that feels like a much-needed respite from the hustle and bustle of action downtown, but in reality, is a mere footbridge jaunt away. (For those who truly value their peace and quiet during the understandably hectic race days, it is a simply unbeatable location.) This gorgeous property is a glorified greenhouse in the park, complete with an art collection curated by Penny Aaron, destination rooftop restaurant Nido, the milk + honey spa, a 24/7-access fitness center, and, best of all, an expansive terrace with an infinity pool that overlooks the heart of Austin. 1211 W Riverside Dr, Austin, TX 78704

MEXICAN GRAND PRIX, MEXICO CITY, OCTOBER 25-27

STAY AT: ST. REGIS MEXICO CITY

Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, with its breathtaking views — named after Mexico’s most famous racing brothers, Ricardo and Pedro Rodriguez — is just east of the heart of Mexico City, but we recommend staying in CDMX’s most populous area, the tree-lined Paseo de la Reforma. Here lies the St. Regis Mexico City, elegant and imposing, soaring 31 stories high, offering up incredible views, creative cuisine, and some stellar experiences around Día de Muertos, which takes place just after F1 concludes. The property truly embraces Mexican culture, with a commitment to cuisine in the form of seven on-site outlets, inclusive of Diana Restaurant (named as such for its bird’s eye views of the nearby Diana the Huntress fountain), which typically offers an unmissable Day of the Dead brunch; King Cole Bar, which features a classic jazz night; and La Table Krug, an extraordinary eight-course experience that involves, of course, Krug champagne. Don’t miss the weekly sabrage ritual in the third floor atrium or, post-race, the property’s specialty “pan de muerto,” a traditional sweet bread with sugary orange glaze prepared specially for the Día de Muertos festivities. Av. P.º de la Reforma 439, Cuauhtémoc, 06500 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

BRAZILIAN GRAND PRIX, SÃO PAULO, NOVEMBER 1-3

STAY AT: ROSEWOOD SÃO PAULO

A Carnivale-like atmosphere seeps into the Formula One experience in Brazil at the Interlagos circuit, and that celebratory feel carries on at the Rosewood São Paulo, the hottest new hotel in the world’s fourth-largest city. This property — located at Cidade Matarazzo, a complex of elegantly preserved buildings from the early 20th century converted by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Jean Nouvel into a mixed-use destination — is highlighted by a beautiful garden tower and striking interiors by Philippe Starck. Get away from it all at this true urban oasis surrounded by beautiful gardens and greenery, while enjoying all that it has to offer. Make sure to hit Blaise, a restaurant inspired by the life of modern art world icon Blaise Cendrars; the Brazilian jazz club Rabo di Galo; and Asaya, its comprehensive well-being concept. R. Itapeva, 435 - Bela Vista, São Paulo - SP, 01332-000, Brazil

LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX, NOVEMBER 21-23

STAY AT: WYNN LAS VEGAS

In its inaugural F1 year, the Las Vegas Strip saw more action than ever before, and nowhere seemed busier than the supremely elegant Wynn Las Vegas. This was, in fact, the only property to offer an official allaccess experience — and one with a price tag to match. For a cool $1 million, the Wynn curated a weekend for six that included entrance to the opening ceremony, luxurious accommodations, special amenities, and access to exclusive resort and F1 events such as The Netflix Cup, RM Sotheby’s Official Auction, the Grand Prix welcome party, the premiere party for Michael Mann’s film Ferrari, the prestigious Las Vegas Concours at Wynn Las Vegas, and a luxe Louis XIII pop-up, among others. For its second iteration, come for the sublime five-star service, and experience what’s new and hot, including a fresh new look at Japanese eatery, Mizumi; Alon Shaya’s latest restaurant, Safta 1964;and Awakening, a spectacle experience narrated by Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins. 3131 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109

QATAR GRAND PRIX, DOHA, NOVEMBER 29 – DECEMBER 1

STAY AT: RAFFLES DOHA

Raffles Doha, Qatar’s only all-suite hotel, is a sublime place to stay during the Qatar race at Lusail, a circuit designed primarily with motorcycle racing in mind. Each of the suites at this luxe paradise, anchored between the desert and the sea, is enhanced with personalized butler service, as well as luxe amenities that include an exclusive scent from Frédéric Malle, a gallery wall with a collection of curated books, and an in-suite boutique. In 2023, the property offered a slew of F1 experiences at many of its seven dining outlets, including a McLaren Afternoon Tea experience at Malaki Lounge (complemented by a test drive); brunch at L’Artisan; an F1-themed dinner at three-star Michelin chef Enrico Crippa’s first overseas outpost, Alba; and an experience at Blue Cigar, a lounge which boasts 6,000 literary classics (including some first editions) alongside a bespoke cigar collection. The hotel also has advanced beauty and well-being offerings with nine spa and fitness suites, each equipped with their own state-of-the-art treatment rooms, some of which have private terraces and plunge pools. Marina District Lusail City, Doha, Qatar

ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX, YAS ISLAND, DECEMBER 5-8

STAY AT: W ABU DHABI - YAS ISLAND

Get ready for a thrilling, high-octane stay at the W - Yas Island, which is actually built above the racetrack of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, providing front row seats to this glitzy and glamorous race. Here, guests are greeted by Bedouin-inspired tents, seating inspired by local mangroves, custom-designed welcome desks meant to mimic oil droplets from racecars, and jewel-tone furnishings that convey the colors of liquid gold, a distinctive historic trade in Abu Dhabi. The hotel’s 499 guest rooms and suites offer plush amenities and floor-to-ceiling windows with spectacular views of the Grand Prix racetrack or the Yas Marina, though of course, the brand’s take on the presidential suite, the 1,342 square-foot Extreme Wow Suite, is the place to stay, with its own private lap pool and sauna. The auto theme even extends to the property’s eatery, Garage, and its health and wellness concept, FUEL. Yas IslandAbu Dhabi - United Arab Emirates

Its latest initiative was to create essential resource kits for children across the country; Bacon’s BKxKB program (or “Building Kits with Kevin Bacon”) aims to create at least 40,000 of these backpack kits, of which include snacks, books, writing tools, water, and more to those in need. Bacon engaged with guests during the special evening, and gave a speech about the mission and philanthropy strides of his non-profit. During the event, guests dined on a slew of delectable items such as filet mignon, NY strip loin, “chicken under a brick” with charred lemon and maître d’ butter, and seared salmon with minted red cabbage slaw and pine nut escabeche. Notable guests included Maye Musk, Stacy Huston, Gillian Parkinson, Bailee Dukes, Camilla Olsson, Alex and Keytt Lundqvist, Sonali and Madhav Pai, and more.

THE FIRST-EVER CHANEL WATCHES & FINE JEWELRY US BOUTIQUE HAS OFFICIALLY ARRIVED IN NEW YORK

ON FEBRUARY 7, CHANEL MADE HOROLOGICAL HISTORY AS THEY opened the first-ever standalone boutique in the United States dedicated exclusively to Chanel Watches and Fine Jewelry. Located on New York City’s iconic Fifth Avenue, the new boutique is a watch and jewelry paradise designed by Peter Marino. Drawing inspiration from the Maison’s famed address at 18 Place Vendôme in Paris and Gabrielle Chanel’s apartment at 31 Rue Cambon, the boutique fosters an intimate shopping experience. It is home to a curated collection of art and antiques, as well as the brand’s signature jewelry collections, such as Coco Crush and N°5. Exclusive to this location is the “Eternal N°5” High Jewelry collection, inspired by the N°5 perfume, and the Lion Solaire de Chanel collection, reflecting Gabrielle Chanel’s Leo zodiac sign. Also featured is the incredibly rare 55.55 necklace, commemorating the perfume’s 100th anniversary. This boutique diverges from Marino’s typical monochrome designs; the architect has opted for an opulent approach, creating a unique destination for Chanel’s most exquisite creations.
