MANN ABOUT TOWN • NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026

one mann’s opinion Hello everyone, Normally, I don’t say this, but due to the tremendous demand and success of Mann About Town, more designers have been calling us. We’re getting an influx of brokers in the residential world, and philanthropy is emphasized more in our photo events—truly allowing us to showcase our motto of merging the worlds of fashion, art, real estate and philanthropy. Our magazine is the high-class coffee table piece raising eyebrows every time. Our sales team is carefully going through all our inquiries, and we believe our next issue will represent that. We’re getting more frequent international calls as well. Our events are continuously getting better, such as the HOW event, raising awareness and funds for ovarian cancer. We were lucky enough to get that event through The Colony Hotel and Ramy Brook and we are doing our part in getting the message across to those we can. We’re moving at such a pace that it’s hard for me to single out everything that’s going on in the world, but Penny and I work hard to ensure the best reads. On our cover, we have Randi Rahm, who has been my friend since the beginning of my adult life. I’ve seen her growth from how she began, and I remember her telling me how she would knit for her grandmother as a child. I don’t know many people who have worked as hard, and the respect she has gained in her craft is well earned. Our cover is magnificent. The story is unbelievable.

“You are the one that possesses the keys to your being. You carry the passport to your own happiness.” ― Diane von Furstenberg

I’m so proud, and I cannot put the extent of it into words. The rest of the magazine includes travel, art and all the in-between. And I can confidently tell you that teamwork does make the dream work because our editorial could not happen without it. Happy holidays.

EDITOR’S LETTER We’ve reached the end of the year. I don’t know how it went for all of you but I hope it was pleasant and that this next year is even better. We’ve had a lot that has happened and we’ve provided what we and our consumers find to be excellent content. I expect nothing less and want this new year to be filled with even more amazing content for you to look forward to—with valuable insight, inspiring looks, destinations to visit and more. I strive to incorporate what is not really known to everybody, experiences that are unique and what simply has our readers coming back for more. Let’s take a look at our end-of-the-year issue as we look forward to what’s to come. In this magazine issue, our featured events include nutritionist, exercise physiologist and bestselling author Heidi Skolnik, who celebrated the publication of her new book, “Your GLP-1 Game Plan: What Your Doctor Didn’t Tell You About How to Eat, Move and Thrive on Weight Loss Medication” with a special reception at One Art Space in Tribeca. There was The Denyce Graves Foundation (DGF) which honored ballerina Misty Copeland, Metropolitan Opera Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin and Metropolitan Opera board chairman Ann Ziff at its annual Harvest Moon Gala, emceed by Emmy Award-winning journalist and 20/20 co-anchor Deborah Roberts. The black-tie evening, held at Guastavino’s, benefited the foundation’s mission of supporting emerging singers and honoring artists overlooked by American history. There was the HOW, which celebrated “A Butterfly Affair: A Night of Fashion, Shopping and Home” at The Colony Hotel, Palm Beach, where Ramy Brook, the internationally recognized designer and our last issue’s cover star, had her collection featured at the event. Proceeds from the event benefited HOW’s Glenda M. Wright Angel Fund, which provides financial aid to Florida women battling

ovarian cancer. We also show Karina Lumière’s solo art exhibition penthouse soirée and The Mann Charitable Foundation’s not-so-golf outing—where weather dampered the golf, but our honorees were still celebrated with cocktails, dinner, music and a good time. On our cover we have Randi Rahm, the talented fashion designer who has dressed a multitude of celebrities and stays ahead uf the curve—the designs, the styles, the transformation. We know we’re still in our winter season, but that does not mean preparation for vacation and warm weather has to stop—so we show the Spring/Summer collections of some designers, including bridal. We put some emphasis on travel trends with lovely examples from enticing locations to modes of transportation. And trends just don’t end with travel, there’s the westerninspired fashion and new form of dental care taking over. Enjoy wellness relaxation with Korakia Pensione, a hidden oasis of secret gardens, pools, lounges and fountains; and our featured doctors who work with your needs. There’s so much to explore, so enjoy our gift to you, and happy holidays!

Mann Charitable Foundation Hosts Annual ‘Golf Outing’ The remnants of an early season Nor’easter may have kept guests off the golf course, but more than 100 luminaires of real estate, fashion and more gathered at the Fresh Meadow Country club to raise money for the Mann Charitable Foundation (MCF). The Mann Charitable Foundation was founded 20 years ago in memory of Marion and Irving Mann. Its mission is to fund research for geriatric diseases, Crohn’s and colitis, breast cancer, lymphoma, macular degeneration and liver diseases, and to ultimately find a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. The foundation also aids areas of New York City and Long Island that require assistance, including the Bronx Historical Society, Community Mainstreaming, the Jewish Children’s Museum, the Jewish National Fund, the Catholic Faith Network, and Nassau County Law Enforcement Exploring. This year’s event honored Brian R. Steinwurtzel of GFP Real Estate LLC and Jason M. Goldberg of CIT Commercial Services and presented Aaron Boyajian of Goetz Platzer LLP with its Humanitarian Award. “Not even the greatest businesspeople in New York can defeat Mother Nature, but we were thrilled that so many came to dine, talk and support MCF, founded in memory of my parents,” said Jeffrey Mann, president and CEO of Mann Publications and president of MCF. “Huge thanks to everyone who made this day possible. And we know that next year, we’ll all be back on the links!”

THE ART OF LIVING WELL

Heidi Skolnik Launches

‘Your GLP-1 Game Plan’ Nutritionist, exercise physiologist and bestselling author Heidi Skolnik—who holds a Master of Science, is a certified dietitian-nutritionist and a fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine—celebrated the publication of her new book, “Your GLP-1 Game Plan: What Your Doctor Didn’t Tell You About How to Eat, Move, and Thrive on Weight Loss Medication,” with a special reception at One Art Space in Tribeca. Hosted by Michael Glantz, the evening brought guests together for bubbles, bites, an author talk and book signing inside the Warren Street gallery, where the final night of celebrated artist Hunt Slonem’s “Through the Looking Glass” provided a colorful and unexpected backdrop for a conversation about health, nutrition and navigating life on GLP-1 medications. Published by Little, Brown Spark—and released Sept. 22, 2026—“Your GLP-1 Game Plan” is designed as a practical, evidence-based guide for people who are considering or already taking GLP-1 medications. Rather than focusing solely on the medication, Skolnik examines what happens beyond the prescription, including nutrition, exercise, side effects, emotional wellbeing, maintaining muscle and energy, and developing sustainable habits. The new book “Your GLP-1 Game Plan” made the New York Times Best-Seller list as No.1 in the Advice, How-to & Miscellaneous category. For more details, visit nyti.ms/4hrWV9V

The 304-page book translates the science surrounding GLP-1 use into practical strategies for everyday life. Among its subjects are meal timing, building what Skolnik calls a “Balanced GLP-1 Plate,” mitigating common side effects, supplements, changing relationships with food and body image, movement and fitness. It also includes 50 recipes designed to help readers meet nutritional needs even when appetite is reduced. The subject arrives at a time when GLP1 medications have moved rapidly into the mainstream. Skolnik argues that the prescription itself is only part of the equation and that users often receive limited accompanying guidance about diet, fitness and mental health. Her book seeks to fill that gap with actionable information intended to support adequate nutrition, strength, stamina, energy and long-term health. The evening offered a fitting intersection of two seemingly different worlds: the science of living well and the imagination of contemporary art. Surrounding guests was the Hunt Slonem’s “Through the Looking Glass,” curated by One Art Space co-owner MaryAnn Giella McCulloh. The exhibition filled the gallery with Slonem’s signature rabbits, butterflies and birds. Notable attendees included: Heidi Skolnik, Michael Glantz, Brad Skolnik, Wolf Blitzer, Lynn Blitzer, Eric Hall, Sam Brock, Savanah Sellers, Joy Bauer, MaryAnn Giella McCulloh, Hunt Slonem, Dr. Marci Goolsby, Dr. Ashley Austin and Dr. Ellen Casey, Dr. Jordan Metzel and Esther Newberg.

The Denyce Graves Foundation’s

Annual Harvest Moon Gala The Denyce Graves Foundation (DGF) hosted their annual Harvest Moon Gala, honoring Misty Copeland, Yannick Nézet-Séguin and Ann Ziff. Chaired by Barbara Tober and Ann Gottlieb, the black-tie evening at Guastavino’s was emceed by Emmy Award-winning 20/20 co-anchor Deborah Roberts and featured a surprise performance by Paul Simon. Denyce Graves, a mezzo-soprano and founder of the Denyce Graves Foundation, said, “At DGF, our work is about opening doors, discovering extraordinary artists, nurturing their gifts, preserving the stories that belong to all of us and making sure that the richness of the American musical experience is fully seen and remembered because voice does more than make music. A voice carries history. It carries possibility. And when we make room for more voices, we change the sound of the future.” The foundation supports emerging singers, bringing stories of underrepresented musicians into the historical record. Misty Copeland received the inaugural Mary Cardwell Dawson Humanitarian Award, named for the pioneering Black opera impresario who founded the National Negro Opera Company. “I kept thinking about what discovering someone who could have helped you feel less alone along the way would feel like,” said Copeland. “For me, that person was Raven Wilkinson, the first Black woman to dance with the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo. Denyce finding Mary, me finding Raven brought us to a similar place: wanting the next generation to know these women sooner than we did and to understand that they are part of history too.” Award-winning Broadway director Kenny Leon presented Copeland with her award, saying “Misty didn’t walk through the door and simply celebrate being first. She turned around and held that door open and began asking ‘Who else needs to come through?’” American Ballet Theatre principal Calvin Royal III added, “She didn’t simply help more people see themselves in ballet. She helped ballet see us more fully—our artistry, our individuality, our humanity. Misty understood that visibility carries responsibility. Her achievements became advocacy. She used her extraordinary reach to make the path wider.” Yannick Nézet-Séguin, recipient of the Game Changer Award, said, “Music for me is about expressing love. It’s about expressing what we have in common, not what we have that appears to be different. I have the honor of conducting, bringing whatever I can so that everybody feels heard, welcome and understood. This award goes to these institutions and musicians believing together that the voices of Margaret Bonds, Marian Anderson and Florence Price can resonate alongside the composers of today. I feel like I’m only at the beginning of what I want to change in that game.” Ann Ziff, recipient of the Living Legend Award, said, “I’ve been very lucky in my life to be fortunate enough to be able to help people who are not as fortunate as I have been, and to

MANN ABOUT TOWN • NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026

help organizations that I love and cherish—none more than my beloved Metropolitan Opera. It means so much to me to be honored by Denyce Graves and her foundation. She, who is a pillar of the operatic community, and has helped so many singers, supported them and furthered their careers. It means the world to be honored by this organization. I accept this honor with great pride, not to celebrate my accomplishments but to promise that I will continue to strive and support the organizations and causes that I love.” Peter Gelb, general manager of The Metropolitan Opera, paid tribute to Ziff, having said, “There is no one I know with a more nurturing and loving attitude towards singers than Ann. From her warm and intimate cast parties on her magnificent terrace on Fifth Avenue to her thoughtful production-themed wrapped chocolate bars, Ann is the soothing matriarch of The Met. In the sometimes rough-and-tumble world of grand opera, some might say that Ann is the antidote to me. I wouldn’t disagree.” “Art is not something to be set aside at a time like this,” said author Marianne Williamson. “When the old way says we need more bombs, let us say no, we need more ballet. When the old ways say we need more brute force, let us say no, we need more music. When the old ways say we need to keep doing it the way we have, let us say no, we will do things that are eternally true.” The evening’s musical program included performances from Susan Graham, John Holiday and Joshua Bell, alongside young artists in foundation’s programs. The evening concluded with Leonard Bernstein’s “Make Our Garden Grow” with Brandon Jovanovich and members of DGF joining the performers on stage for the finale. Guests received gift bags containing commemorative gifts, including two custom nail polishes, titled “Rose in Cavalier” and “Rhapsody in Lilac,” created in honor of Nézet-Séguin, as well as a perfume for Misty, and a succulent for Ann. The evening included DGF board members Marc Chazaud, Aaron Urbanek, Clyde Jones, Robert Montgomery and James Muhammad as well as Adrienne Arsht, Jason Robert Brown, Anthony Roth Costanzo, Michele Oka Doner and Fred Doner, Olivia Flatto, Susan Gutfreund, John Holiday, Ann Kline, Karen Slack, B. Michael, Constantine Orbelian, Ailyn Perez and Andrew Martin Weber. The Denyce Graves Foundation is a nonprofit organization at the intersection of social justice, American history and the arts. Founded by opera singer Denyce Graves-Montgomery, DGF brings the stories of overlooked musical figures to light, supports emerging artists, preserves and reimagines overlooked histories and creates opportunities for the next generation of artists. Through partnerships with cultural institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, conservatories, and schools of music, DGF works to expand who is heard, whose stories are remembered and whose voices shape the cultural landscape.

‘A Butterﬂy Aﬀair’

Hearing the Ovarian Cancer Whisper (HOW) celebrated “A Butterfly Affair: A Night of Fashion, Shopping & Home” at The Colony Hotel, Palm Beach, on Oct.15, 2026. Ramy Brook, internationally recognized designer, had her collection featured at the event. Proceeds from the event benefited HOW’s Glenda M. Wright Angel Fund, which provides financial aid to Florida women battling ovarian cancer. The evening was chaired by Louise Altese-Isidori, Tiffany Cloutier and Lori Hines, whose efforts helped bring the celebration together. This year’s featured designer was Ramy Brook, American fashion designer and founder of her contemporary women’s apparel brand, sold at over 400 global retail locations, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s. Her designs are made with a “sexy, sophisticated, timeless” philosophy and have been worn by celebrities like Cindy Crawford, Kate Beckinsale and Julianna Marguiles. The event included an exclusive showcase of Ramy Brook’s collection, along with other selected vendors showcasing beauty, jewelry, hats, handbags, accessories and more. Guests enjoyed a selection of complimentary champagne, cocktails and delicious bites while they listened to specialty music. During the evening, guests enjoyed a silent auction with luxury surprises as well as a raffle prize drawing for a beautiful Van Cleef & Arpels Sweet Butterflies bracelet (retail $1,630). The bracelet, adorned with precious and ornamental materials, embodies the lightness, elegance and delicacy of a butterfly. The evening was made possible through the generous support of Shopping Sponsor, Mr. Kerry Humphreys; Hope Sponsor, Genevieve Murphy; and Angel Sponsors, Palm Beach S o c i e t y M a g a z i n e, Ke r r y D i a z , M a r y Castronuovo, Debra Rales and Diane Donald. Special appreciation was extended to Adrien Arpel, Lori Gilman and Colleen Sages. The event highlights the importance of the ongoing fight against ovarian cancer, which affects more than 22,000 women each year in the United States. Every dollar raised benefits the Glenda M. Wright Angel Fund, which provides financial assistance to women in the state of Florida who 24

have ovarian cancer. Since 2004, the fund has helped hundreds of women with ovarian cancer and the grants continue to grow each year. Angel Fund recipient Samantha A. shared how HOW’s support helped her navigate the financial challenges of her cancer journey. “It’s help like HOW’s that makes a difference in the lives of cancer patients like me. You’ve already helped to pay my rent and car payment. In the coming days, I’ll have more chemo and within nine more weeks, I may qualify for surgery to remove my cancer’s mass in my abdomen. Thank you for the work you do and how you are impacting people like me through unimaginable challenges. I am humbled and grateful for all you do to make life better for cancer patients like me. May God continue to richly bless you in all things and ways,” Samantha shared in a testimonial featured on HOW’s website. The Butterfly Affair evening celebrated fashion, friendship and philanthropy, highlighting HOW’s mission that “together, we can make a difference —one woman at a time.” Participating vendors included Ramy Brook, 121 Further, Arthur & Sons, CALdesign Vintage, CanastaSets.com, Logan Tay, Marina St. Barth, Miami Buy the Bag, Mrs. Giftie, Pepa London, Project Coffee Clutch, Road Trips, Susan Andreasen, Tori Brown the Label and Tijon Fragrance Lab West Palm Beach.

Bogner Unveils 'Chalet Icons' Collection for Winter in the Mountains German brand Bogner has presented “Chalet Icons,” a collection designed for luxury weekends in the mountains. The line combines alpine comfort with modern sophistication and is meant to take its wearers from mountain activities to relaxed moments in the chalet. According to the brand, the collection bridges its two worlds: fashion and an active lifestyle. Bogner describes the result as a balance between comfort, performance and design, rooted in its focus on functionality, craftsmanship and contemporary elegance. The material palette centers on premium lambswool, fine knitwear qualities and performance satin. Intarsia designs and intricate embroidery serve as the seasonal highlights, linking sportswear and fashion. Shearling, Knitwear and Down for Women The womenswear offer pairs shearling with knitwear in varying weights and down-filled satin. Key pieces include knitwear sets with shearling accents, reworked shirt silhouettes with a cape-inspired character and coats with softshell inserts, hoods and zip closures. A shearling coat with multicoloured intarsia, integrated softshell panels and embroidered details reflects the artisanal craftsmanship in the collection. Outerwear Focus for Men For men, the focus lies on outerwear. Highlights include a short jacket in functional flannel with a shirt-like appearance and a parka in ripstop and shearling with leather shoulder yoke details. A shearling coat with a sleek leather exterior and four-way stretch completes the outerwear offer. Fine knitwear and relaxed-fit trousers in woven double-weave fabric round off the menswear range.

Karl Lagerfeld Teams Up With G.H. Bass on Penny Loafer Capsule Paris-based fashion house Karl Lagerfeld has partnered with American footwear brand G.H. Bass on a footwear capsule for Fall/Winter 2026. The collaboration centers on the penny loafer and coincides with two milestones for G.H. Bass: the brand’s 150th anniversary and the 90th anniversary of its Weejuns penny loafer. Founded in Maine in 1876, G.H. Bass introduced the Weejuns in 1936, a style the company describes as the first penny loafer. For the capsule, Karl Lagerfeld has reworked the silhouette with its own design codes. Seven Styles for Men and Women The collection comprises seven styles across menswear and womenswear. Each design features a silver K/Autograph coin set in the traditional penny keeper, a nod to the loafer’s signature detail.

Polished and clean

The loafer comes in three versions: polished black, a black and white contrast design and a black edition embossed with toneon-tone Karl Lagerfeld Icon motifs. According to Karl Lagerfeld, the capsule is designed to complement its Fall/Winter 2026 ready-to-wear collections for women and men, to be worn with tailoring as well as everyday pieces. The Karl Lagerfeld x G.H. Bass collection is available from October 2026 in Karl Lagerfeld stores, on the websites of both brands and through selected wholesale partners.

This season, Litkovska presents “Stricha”—a collection about encounter, transformation and what remains when we are simply seen. A meeting. A glance. A connection. In one of Ukraine’s dialects, stricha means “an encounter”—a word that became the starting point for Liliia Litkovska’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection. An encounter often begins with a surface—a glance, a gesture, a first impression—before revealing something deeper. The show takes place at Café Beaubourg, facing the Centre Pompidou—long known as a meeting point for the city’s artists and writers—recreating the atmosphere of a casual encounter over morning coffee. For Litkovska, an encounter is never simply about two people occupying the same space. It is a moment that can strip away what is constructed—the roles we perform, the identities we present, the surfaces we use to navigate the world and reveal what remains underneath. “This is a show about encounters. We have thousands in a lifetime, but there is one that matters most—the encounter with yourself,” said Liliia Litkovska. The collection draws on Borys Kosarev, one of the founding figures of the Ukrainian avant-garde, and in particular, his series of collage portraits and masks—faces and forms shattered into geometric planes. Rather than illustrating Kosarev’s work, Liliia Litkovska builds his method directly into the construction of the garments, translating his fragmented faces into appliqué, collage and prints. Through the “Stricha” show, Litkovska brings Kosarev’s vision to Paris, creating the encounter between his work and the city that never took place in his lifetime. The same language of fragmentation runs through the clothes. Construction is deliberately left visible, with seams highlighted rather than hidden, while familiar forms are transformed: A voluminous blouse unfolds into a long dress, a cape becomes a coat and traditional Ukrainian homespun weave is turned inside out, bringing its inner side to the surface. It continues one of the house’s founding ideas: “There is no wrong side.” The act of turning things inside out becomes a way of turning inward—towards what lies beneath the surface. That search for what lies beneath takes on a particular clarity in nowadays Ukraine. War has a way of stripping away the unnecessary, making clearer what is essential—what belongs to you, what you believe in and what is worth carrying forward. For Litkovska, remaining open in such circumstances—to love, to create, to meet new people—becomes a conscious choice. The message “Set Missing. Destroyed by Missle” remains a reminder of the reality from which the collection emerges and of the decision to continue creating despite it. Photos courtesy of Litkovska

READY-TO-WEAR SPRING/SUMMER 2027 ‘THE GARDEN AFTER RAIN’

For Spring/Summer 2027, Rami Al Ali turns his gaze towards a garden transformed by rain. Titled “The Garden After Rain,” the new ready-to-wear collection captures the fleeting stillness that follows a summer storm; when petals have fallen against darkened stone, stems bend beneath the weight of water and the landscape emerges softened, saturated and quietly renewed. Rather than depicting nature literally, Rami Al Ali explores the subtle ways water alters what surrounds it: its weight, color, movement and structure. The result is a collection defined by fluidity, transformation and a heightened attention to the details revealed only in moments of stillness. Fluid fabrics descend in elongated lines, evoking garments still carrying the weight of moisture, while lighter layers create an impression of mist, evaporation and air. Silhouettes move between softness and structure, allowing the fabric itself to become an expression of movement—falling, gathering and releasing across the body. Embroidery follows the same organic language. Instead of traditional floral arrangements, embellishment develops intuitively across the silhouette, gathering and dispersing like petals and water carried by the rain. The effect is delicate yet deliberate, creating moments of texture that appear to emerge naturally from the fabric. The collection’s palette mirrors the garden’s transformation after the storm. Chalk and rinsed ivory provide a quiet foundation, contrasted with bruised blushes, softened celadon, saturated greens and rainwashed blues. Touches of muted metallic light introduce the reflective quality of water catching the first light as the clouds begin to clear. At its heart, the SS27 collection is organized around four evolving states: rinsed neutral, bruised bloom, saturated stem and cleared air. Together, they create a visual journey from the weight and intensity of the storm towards the clarity that follows. With “The Garden After Rain,” Rami Al Ali continues his exploration of femininity through a language of refined craftsmanship, movement and emotion. Nature is not reproduced but distilled; its fleeting transformations translated into fluid silhouettes, intricate embroidery and a palette that recalls a landscape moment after the rain has passed.

HELI KALKSTEIN ‘SOLARIS’ FW27 BRIDAL COLLECTION Solaris by Heli Kalkstein is a celebration of light and modern femininity. Inspired by the quiet beauty of the desert, this collection explores the striking contrast between a place that is at once soft and untamed. Delicate fabrics stand out against vast landscapes, sheer layers move in the wind. Intricate floral textures take in light and change quality with the warmth of the sun. Ethereal tulles, fluid silhouettes and subtle transparencies come together to create a sense of effortless, fresh romance. Each gown is light and instinctive, designed to move naturally with the body and reveal beauty through texture and transparency. Solaris captures a moment suspended between earth and light: wild, feminine and timeless.

JULIE VINO COUTURE ‘L’AURA’ FW27 BRIDAL COLLECTION L’Aura is inspired by the intangible presence a woman carries with her. Before she speaks, as she enters the room, there is already an energy surrounding her. An aura. L’Aura by Julie Vino Couture explores that presence through shifts and play in transparency and structure, softness and strength. Delicate lace appears almost suspended over the body. Hand-applied pearls and crystals add definition to sheer tulle foundations. Sculpted corsetry exposes construction with intention, while dramatic volume creates a powerful sense of movement. Rather than presenting one interpretation of femininity, L’Aura explores its contrasts. She can be romantic. She can be sensual. She can be restrained. She can be dramatic. She can be powerful. And sometimes she can be all at once. NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026 • MANN ABOUT TOWN

NICHE TRENDS

Dominating Outdoor Travel

Forget generic resort buffets and crowded tour buses. Adventure travel has officially entered its custom, microniche era. According to recent trade data from the Adventure Travel Trade Association (ATTA), demand for customized, soft-adventure itineraries is soaring, with travelers seeking out physical skill-building, hyperimmersive local cultures and eco-conscious escapes. Here are five travel trends taking over the outdoors right now—and the exact spots where people are doing them. Photo courtesy of Gondwana Ecotours Photo courtesy of French Waterways

‘Coolcations’ and High-Latitude Escapes Sweltering on a Mediterranean beach in 100-degree heat is officially out. Crisp mountain air and temperate climates are in. Recent industry metrics show extreme surge interest in cold-weather and high-latitude destinations. Travelers are booking northern wildlife treks like Gondwana Ecotours’ northern lights and glacier trips in Alaska, heading deep into high-altitude cloud forests at Ecuador’s Scalesia Lodge in the Galápagos highlands, and finding alpine escapes on the edge of Yellowstone from The Wilson Hotel in Big Sky, Montana. The goal? Sweatshirt weather, breathtaking landscapes and zero risk of melting into the pavement.

Multi-Modal ‘Slow Travel’ (Bike, Boat and Hike) T he ATTA re ports that custom, multi-activity itineraries—especially those pairing cycling, hiking and cruising—are among the fastest-growing trip types. Modern travelers want to move through a region slowly rather than rushing through airports. Companies like Boat Bike Tours are seeing massive demand for cruise-andcycle journeys, while French Waterways charters barges that glide along tranquil canals, and Eurohike caters to self-guided trekkers who want their luggage transferred between Alpine accommodations each night.

Hyper-Tactile ‘Sight-Doing’ Passively staring at monuments from a tour window is dead. Today’s travelers want to return home with a new skill or a genuine sense of accomplishment. “Sight-doing” has taken over, with visitors opting for hands-on, high-energy activities. Think paddling through roaring river rapids with Flying Pig Rafting near Yellowstone or booking technical backcountry mountain biking trips across the American Southwest with Escape Adventures. If you didn’t break a sweat or learn a tactical skill, did you even leave the house?

Raw ‘Lore Chasing’ and Deep Amazonian Isolation Travelers are increasingly ditching polished luxury for deepimmersion “lore chasing,” seeking out remote corners of the planet that feel untouched by the modern internet. Eco-lodges nestled deep in biodiversity hotspots, such as Sacha Lodge in the Ecuadorian Amazon, offer canopy walkways, nightkayaking through blackwater lagoons, and pure wilderness immersion that yields dinner-party stories you couldn’t make up if you tried.

Heritage Re-Wilding and ‘Cowboy Core’ Driven by pop-culture Westerns and a desire for digital detoxes, heritage ranch travel is having a massive moment. Travelers are trading high-tech hubs for wide-open spaces and horseback riding. Properties under the True Ranch Collection umbrella allow guests to step back in time on historic dude ranches across the American West, blending cowboy culture, genuine hospitality and star-filled night skies.

Karina Lumière After Dark A private vernissage, a penthouse soirée and an ambitious next chapter for Luxury Atelier BY AVALON ASHLEY BELLOS

Karina Lumière gave Tribeca something worth dressing for. On Oct. 22, her solo exhibition, “The Colorful Language of Becoming,” brought its particular brand of chromatic seduction to emcee, 401 Broadway, where a private vernissage unfolded into a penthouse soirée. Presented by Luxury Atelier by Avalon Ashley Bellos, the occasion allowed painting and pleasure to keep rather good company. Still, beneath the social sparkle was something more consequential: an artist making her presence felt, and an Atelier increasingly intent on enlarging the conversation. Lumière’s abstractions reward a certain willingness to surrender. Lavender slips into violet; pink meets green; pearly white gives the eye somewhere to pause before another passage draws it away. The forms remain deliciously elusive. One might find a suggestion of flesh, a botanical encounter, perhaps the residue of a dream that refuses to explain itself over breakfast. Such associations belong to the viewer, although the invitation is unmistakable. These canvases encourage intimacy, asking for the kind of attention that becomes more absorbing the longer one gives it. There is, however, considerable feeling beneath their allure. The Ukrainian-born, Tel Aviv-based painter developed her New York series during a period of profound uncertainty, with concern for her son accompanying a studio practice sometimes interrupted by the need to seek safety. Her response was a 48

conscious commitment to what she could offer through the work. “I consciously wanted to create something full of light,” she explained. Read against those circumstances, the radiance acquires emotional weight. There is courage in making room for tenderness when the conditions around you offer so little reassurance. Perhaps that is why the exhibition’s title feels so apt. Becoming is an unfinished condition, as anyone who has attempted to reinvent a life, build a business or love another human being can attest. Lumière approaches the canvas without a predetermined image, allowing gesture and instinct to guide its emergence. Exuberance shares space with stillness; vulnerability remains visible within the exuberant palette. For all their immediate appeal, the paintings leave room for ambiguity, and consequently for return. The company gathered for the opening reflected the different worlds such an encounter can bring together. Flying Whale Wine founder Maba Ba joined fashion icon Tinu Naija; New York real estate mover and shaker Linette Semino; veteran journalist Tom Murro; art dealer Gene Lunz; and artist Robin Cofer. Across those disciplines runs a shared understanding of presence: how something catches the eye, establishes its character and, with a little substance behind it, earns a lasting place in the imagination.

ARTS & AFFAIRS With support from sponsors GENart and Flying Whale Wine, the celebration continued upstairs, where DJ Dayah Modo supplied the music for the penthouse soirée. The progression from exhibition to after-party was entirely in keeping with the spirit of the presentation. A painting deserves sustained consideration, certainly; the conversations it begins can also benefit from an evening with room to unfold. Scholarship has never required an early bedtime. For me, that relationship between cultural seriousness and social possibility sits at the heart of the Atelier. An exhibition creates an introduction. What follows requires care: helping someone understand a practice, encouraging a collector to look more closely, developing the circumstances in which an artist’s work can be encountered again. The most compelling rooms allow curiosity to become personal. From there, meaningful relationships have somewhere to begin. Lumière’s continuing development also carries the contribution of Alina Bairamova, founder of Human Creative Services, who introduced her to United States audiences through her 2025 New York debut and provided strategic artist support for this presentation. That continuity matters. A career takes shape through successive encounters, with each project creating further possibilities for the work and the people committed to its future.

For Lumière, the New York presentation opens onto an exciting new chapter, with news of her forthcoming projects to be shared as those plans take shape. Her practice continues to unfold with the same emotional curiosity that animates these canvases, offering ample reason to keep watching. The introduction has been made; there is considerably more to discover. Luxury Atelier, meanwhile, is pursuing its own ambitious expansion. Through exhibitions, private salons and cultural partnerships, we are building a broader platform for the artists we champion and the collectors we engage. Our growing foothold in the art world comes with an appetite for more substantial programming, unexpected encounters and relationships that endure well beyond an opening night. Further announcements will reveal where that ambition takes us next. For one October evening, those trajectories met in Tribeca, with paintings downstairs and music above. What follows will give each its own stage. I have every intention of making the Atelier’s next entrance worth dressing for. Yours in art.

At the 25th anniversary of Sept. 11, the Tribute in Light pierces a cloud-heavy sky over Lower Manhattan, its twin beams standing in for towers no longer there. Crowds gather at the Oculus beneath One World Trade Center, police holding the line as onlookers look skyward. A trio sounds the shofar before a mural-wrapped fence, an Israeli flag and American flag draped alongside. Nearby, bagpipers in kilts and dress uniforms march past Port Authority Police vehicles bearing the names of the fallen, a lone officer standing sentry as the procession recedes toward the towers. A quarter-century later, light, sound and silence gather once more in remembrance. @michael_liman_photography | Michael.liman.photo@gmail.com

Mention recipient at the B&W International Photography Awards (2026) for “Space Man” and “Girl on Orchard,” Liman explores what he calls “settings within settings,” moments where people, architecture and time converge to reveal the quiet rhythms and hidden narratives of the city. Born in Brooklyn and raised on Long Island, he works in both film and digital, in color and black-and-white, with a focus on place, memory and the passage of time. His first project, “The Sands of Summer,” documents the vibrant yet fleeting life of Atlantic Beach, New York, capturing the warmth, nostalgia and human rituals of the summer season. This early work laid the foundation for Liman’s enduring interest in place, memory and the passage of time. His acclaimed book, “NYC Streets,” is a portrait of Manhattan as a living, breathing organism always changing yet timeless, filled with countless untold stories. From crowded intersections to forgotten corners, Liman’s photographs highlight the interplay between presence and memory, documenting how the smallest gestures and interactions shape the city’s collective identity.

Liman contributes monthly to Mann About Town, a leading lifestyle magazine where he presents ongoing visual narratives of New York City. He is also developing additional long-term projects: one centered on Coney Island, exploring themes of transformation and continuity within Brooklyn’s iconic seaside landscape; another set in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, where Liman turns his lens toward the vast American landscape, examining the relationship between natural beauty, solitude and the human impulse to explore and preserve. With more than 45 years in the television and motion picture industry, Liman brings a cinematic sensibility to his still photography, combining narrative insight with technical precision. Beyond his work behind the camera, he is an avid collector of Leica cameras and lenses, as well as Hasselblad and Rolleiflex systems, drawing inspiration from the enduring craftsmanship and history of photographic design.

Randi Rahm

The Art of Seeing What Isn’t There Music, dance, couture, philanthropy. Diﬀerent stages, one premise: Spot the potential, then do the work.

MANN ABOUT TOWN • NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026

COVER FEATURE

andi Rahm sees it first. The dress, yes, but also the woman in it—the way she moves, the room she enters, the impression she leaves once she’s gone. Most people with that kind of eye are content to admire it privately. Rahm is not most people. She wears her creative instinct on her sleeve. Plenty of people have vision. Rahm has follow-through, which is rarer. She spots the potential early. Then she stays, sweating the details and trusting an instinct that keeps her a few steps ahead, until everyone else can see it too.

It started long before there was a label. Rahm’s fashion sense came from her grandmother, in a family that treated getting dressed as an art form in and of itself. She learned how pieces come together, how proportion rewrites a silhouette, how a person can announce herself b e fo re o p e n i n g h e r mouth. Getting dressed was never just getting dressed. It was a series of decisions, each one a small act of selfdisclosure. Rahm was reading them before she knew she was reading anything at all. Making things came instinctively. Music, dance, drawing, d e s ign —each w as a different door to the same place. Looking back, Rahm sees little difference between the child who gravitated toward making things and the designer she became. The medium changed; the inclination did not. Her training as a pianist and conductor gave those instincts discipline and taught her how a hundred small choices add up to one composition. She has always cared about the whole picture. She also knows it can hinge on one very small detail. Couture was not the plan. By her own account, the business found her, beginning with a quilt she made for her newborn son that caught people’s attention and led, in time, to children’s clothing and then couture. Then came the part nobody puts on a mood board: learning to build the infrastructure around an instinct that had

always been there. It was an education of its own, acquired through experience, mistakes and the daily demands of keeping a creative livelihood alive. Behind the Madison Avenue showroom, in the back of the atelier, lies the heart of the house. There, a devoted team of seamstresses, patternmakers, cutters and beaders brings each design to life. This is the living work of couture: skilled people responding to one garment and the one person who will wear it. Every piece is built one stitch, one bead, one seam at a time. Everything is made in-house. Everything passes through human hands, which makes the atelier one of the few places where couture is still made the way couture is supposed to be made. A fitting reveals what the drawing couldn’t, and it is here, in the hands of her artisans, that a sketch stops being an idea and becomes a one-of-akind heirloom. There is nothing accidental about something that looks effortless. Preserving that legacy of technique and precision has never meant standing still. The atelier is the foundation; the future is where her curiosity keeps wandering. Randi Rahm is, by most measures, early. Her designs have a way of arriving two or three years before the rest of the industry catches up. The clearest proof is the convertible bridal gown, which she traces to 1989. By adding or removing sections, such as a detachable skirt, train or overlay, a single gown could transform into an entirely different look. For mal and grand for the ceremony, something else entirely for the reception, and never dull about it. The ceremony and the reception are two very different events, and the dress need not pretend otherwise. It combined the things Rahm cares about most: elegance, usefulness, drama and the freedom to have options. It was practical and theatrical, which is to say very Randi. Her curiosity extends to technology, too. Rahm was among the first designers to bring artificial intelligence into her campaigns, creating futuristic AI-generated landscapes and placing her models, dressed in her real gowns, within them. The result

COVER FEATURE STORY

Billy Porter’s 2019 Golden Globes suit displayed at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum, designed by Randi Rahm

merges the handmade and the imagined: couture constructed stitch by stitch in a New York atelier, presented in worlds that exist nowhere else.

Not every milestone was the product of pursuit. For years, the “Bachelor” franchise offered a different kind of endorsement. Before each rose ceremony on “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette,” the women would enter a warehouse lined with thousands of gowns from designers of every stripe, free to choose whatever they wished. Season after season, they kept reaching for Rahm’s. No campaign could have arranged it. The dresses simply had to earn their place on the rack, and on the women who wore them.To this day, many of those women remain part of Rahm’s life. What began with a dress became a friendship.

That instinct to go first is also how she built her name. With no conglomerate behind the label, every bit of its visibility had to be won. Rahm has been at the helm from the start, conducting every part of it herself, from photoshoots and social media to the red carpet. She never waited to be discovered; she made sure she was seen. Few moments Rahm has never treated presentation as an were as dazzling as the 2004 Academy Awards, afterthought. For Billy Porter’s 2019 Golden when Maria Menounos walked the red carpet in Globes appearance, she designed an embroidered Rahm’s $2.5 million diamond gown, a dress that suit and a pink-lined cape that made movement turned couture into headline news. It was far from the point. The look took six months to prepare. It the last. Beyoncé wore Randi Rahm to perform at gave a performer something to perform in, and its the White House. Sally Field chose her to present detail and scale became part of the statement he at the Academy Awards. Carrie Underwood took made. It was fashion that understood its audience, the stage in Randi Rahm at the Country Music its setting and the person at its center. Awards, Miranda Lambert at the American Music Awards and Jennifer Hudson wore her for a 2011 T h e l o o k ’s f i n a l s e t t i n g w a s eve n m o re feature in Ebony. In 2005, Mariah Carey wore commanding. The ensemble was chosen for Randi Rahm in not one but two music videos: Rachel Lyndsay wearing “Fashioning Masculinities: The Art of Menswear” a custom gown in “It’s Like That,” and Randi Randi Rahm at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum. Rahm Rahm’s Twisty gown in “We Belong Together.” found her creation in its own glass case, among Her designs also graced the holiday windows of Bergdorf Goodman and Saks Fifth Avenue. Add the countless stars work by masters she had long admired. She describes the experience who have worn her at the Tonys, and the list grows almost too long to as surreal: her own work, standing in the company of the artists who count.

Chita Rivera wearing Randi Rahm

Museums, it turns out, were becoming something of a habit. The late Joan Rivers was not only a close friend of Rahm’s but an avid wearer of her designs. When Madame Tussauds Hollywood created its wax figure of Rivers, it was Rahm who dressed her. The friendship came naturally. Rivers understood glamour as both pleasure and performance. She loved to look beautiful, and she loved the world to notice. Rahm’s designs gave her both. One dress in particular became such a favorite that, as Rahm tells it, the only way to get it back would have been to go to Joan’s house and take it off her back. Now Rivers’ likeness wears Rahm’s work for good. As Rahm puts it, the two of them are together in a museum for “eternity.” For a woman who made a career of judging what everyone else wore, there could hardly be a higher compliment. Rahm’s ties to the performing arts run deeper than who wears her clothes. She started in music and movement, and has spent years paying it forward, beginning with The Children’s Storefront, the Harlem school where she helped introduce children to the arts. The lesson reached beyond the disciplines. The children were also learning to communicate, build relationships and work through conflict. The arts, Rahm saw, could teach a person how to engage with the world. The same conviction drives her support of the NYC Dance Alliance Foundation, which champions dance education and helps young dancers afford NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026 • MANN ABOUT TOWN

serious training through high school and college scholarships. For Rahm, though, the scholarship is only the beginning. What matters just as much is what comes after: the moment a dancer steps out of the studio and has to build a working life. Talent may be developed alone but a career rarely is. Every artist needs people in their corner—those who share what they know, open a door or recognize an opportunity before it passes. Rahm has made a point of being one of them. Dance, for Rahm, was never only a cause. It had a face. Her friendship with the late Chita Rivera, the Broadway legend she dressed on many occasions, including the Tony Awards, drew her ever deeper into the world of dance. Chita was honest, humble and endlessly inclusive, and for Rahm, an enduring inspiration. Today, Rahm sits on the board of the NYC Dance Alliance Foundation, which keeps Chita’s legacy alive through its Triple Threat Award, a fitting tribute to a performer who could sing, dance and act like few others. Most designers present their work during Fashion Week. Rahm built her own. Couture for a Cause is her runway show, and it comes with a purpose the official calendar doesn’t require. Each presentation is tied to a charitable cause. The gowns get their moment on the runway, and so does the cause. The impulse is consistent. She notices something worth developing and gets involved in what it will take. Sometimes she offers a design, a place for people to gather or an introduction between two people who ought to know each other. Sometimes she offers the perspective of someone who has already been through the hard part. The form changes. The willingness doesn’t. Rahm has never learned to switch it off. The instinct that found her in music, couture and imagined landscapes keeps moving, and this time it has led her to jewelry. Resinate, her colorful new collection, is the next picture only she could see. The name is a fitting play on words: pieces crafted in resin, designed to resonate. It is what her instinct has been doing all along—finding what will strike a chord and staying with it until everyone else hears it too. So keep an eye on Resinate, and on whatever Randi Rahm dreams up next. The rest of the world tends to arrive late. By the time it does, she is usually already looking at something else.

Yume Ga Arukara Makes Its New York Debut

Yume Ga Arukara, meaning “Because I Have a Dream,” is a Japanese udon restaurant founded in 2017 by Juan Carlos Vidal and chef Tsuyoshi Nishioka. Longtime friends who had worked together for years at Japanese restaurants in Boston, the two shared a dream of opening a restaurant of their own. Together, they opened their first Yume Ga Arukara location in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which gained national attention in its first year after Bon Appétit magazine ranked it No. 8 on its “Hot 10 Restaurants” list in 2018. Since then, Yume Ga Arukara has developed a devoted following and is frequently cited as No. 1 of the top-rated udon restaurants in the United States, based on over 100 million ratings on Beli. The Fifth Avenue location brings the restaurant’s highly specialized udon approach to NoMad with its laborintensive, traditional preparation while staying true to the original recipe with everything from its chewy noodles to its 12-hour broth process. Owner Vidal, who trained with chef Nishioka until his departure from Yume Ga Arukara back to Japan in 2020, made himself closely involved in the day-to-day launch. Chef Tomo Shinoda, who was chef Nishioka’s protégé, also worked extensively for four years training the culinary team, chef Nery Lemus and chef Adolfo “Fito” Garcia. Both chefs have spent years learning and refining the techniques, recipes and standards that define the restaurant culinary identity. Their experience will be central to maintaining

consistency as the brand has expanded to New York City. Operations Director Jenry Garcia focused on the New York City launch, overseeing every detail of the front-ofhouse service and maintaining the consistency that defines the culture of Yume Ga Arukara. The open kitchen layout brings the noodle and broth making process directly into view and is designed to give guests a closer understanding of the time, technique and precision behind each bowl. A specialized noodle machine from Japan is used to make daily in-house udon fresh through a carefully timed process that creates its signature thickness, texture and chew. Wheat flour and water are mixed and formed into large blocks of dough, which are then rested in temperature-controlled refrigerators. This proofing period allows the dough to develop the ideal consistency before it is stretched, pressed and cut into the long individual strands that become the signature noodles. Just as much care goes into Yume’s broth, with each component prepared separately over many hours to allow layers of flavor to build gradually. The tare begins with seaweed and mushrooms, which are slowly heated in water to extract their natural depth and umami. Ager straining, seasoned with additional ingredients and Yume’s Secret Soy Sauce, their signature house blend gives the broth its distinctive flavor and makes it uniquely Yume Ga Arukara. The fish-based broth for the cold noodles feature mackerel, bonito and tiny pieces of dried shrimp, while hot noodles

ON THE TABLE typically use chicken broth, except for the Hot Udon, which combines both. The final preparation follows an assembly-line approach, with each member of the kitchen teamresponsible for a specific step, from plating the noodles to adding toppings and broth. Cold Udon options include the Signature Cold Niku Udon, served with a fish-based broth, beef, ginger, seaweed, crispy tempura batter, lemon, daikon and tare. It is also available as Cold Udon without beef. For a spicy option, guests can choose the Spicy Cold Niku Udon, served with beef, homemade chili paste and chili oil, or the Spicy Cold Udon without beef. Hot Udon options include the Hot Niku Udon, served with beef, chicken broth, crispy tempura batter, dried shrimp and Japanese pepper flakes. It is also available as Hot Udon without beef, featuring a combination of chicken and fish broth. Spicy options include the Spicy Hot Niku Udon, served with beef, and the Spicy Hot Udon without beef, both made with homemade chili paste. The interior design translates the spirit of the Yume Ga Arukara brand into a distinctly New York setting, combining elements of traditional Japanese craftsmanship with a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic. The multi-level space features sculptural wood ceilings, woven textures and elong ated, noodle-inspired lighting fixtures. The design is intentionally restrained, balancing Japanese-inspired craftsmanship with the clean, contemporary sensibility of NoMad to create an atmosphere that is comfortable, sophisticated and deliberately understated. The first floor centers around bar seating and an open kitchen, designed to make the preparation process an integral part of the dining experience. Upstairs, a sunlit main dining room overlooks Fifth Avenue and offers views toward the Norman Vincent Peale Church. An adjoining glass enclosed atrium garden provides an additional dining environment, bringing natural light and greenery into the space. Yume Ga Arukara currently operates two other locations: one in Cambridge’s Porter Square and another at Pier 4 in Boston’s Seaport.

ON THE TABLE Badshah Social, the newest concept from ChefOwner Abishek Sharma—of the acclaimed Swagat, Madam Ji and A13 Events—is a curated culinary journey inspired by the rich diversity of India’s regional street food culture. Named after the Hindi word Badshah, meaning “The King,” the restaurant brings bold energy, vibrant flavors and the sensory experience of India’s streets to life in an urban social dining destination. More than a restaurant, Badshah Social is designed as a place to gather, share plates, enjoy inventive cocktails and experience the stories behind every dish. Seeking inspiration, Sharma traveled back through his homeland to Delhi, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Gujarat, Punjab and Southern India, wandering through neighborhood markets and the bustling streets, collecting recipes and experiencing new techniques. It is these stories and memories that define the menu at Badshah Social, transforming familiar street food into a modern interpretation while remaining rooted in authenticity. For the next chapter of Badshah Social, Sharma has tapped Mumbai-born chef Dipesh Shinde to collaborate as research and development chef. Shinde brings a deep knowledge of India’s diverse regional cooking traditions along with experience in New York’s dynamic dining scene.

MANN OF THE HOUR

A New Chapter at

580 Park Dr. Bradley Glodny took over one of the Upper East Side’s longestrunning dermatology practices, doubled its size and rebuilt it around a new generation of physicians. Walk into Park Avenue Dermatology today and it is hard to picture what used to be there. The suite at 580 Park Avenue is bright and open, with clean lines and an art collection that makes the waiting room feel closer to a gallery than a doctor’s office. Not long ago it looked like a lot of Upper East Side medical offices: dark, a little dated and half the size. The transformation belongs to Dr. Bradley Glodny, the board-certified dermatologist who acquired the practice and set out to modernize it without losing the trust it had earned over decades. “Some of our patients have been coming here for 30 or 40 years,” Glodny said. “I never wanted to erase that. I wanted to give it a space and a team that matched the level of care.”

Dr. Bradley Glodny

The long way to Park Avenue Glodny grew up on Long Island and studied at Emory University in Atlanta, graduating cum laude. He did not go straight into medicine. He spent several years in basic science research focused on immunotherapy before realizing he wanted more time with people than with the lab bench. He came home to New York for medical school at SUNY Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, where he graduated magna cum laude and was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha, the national medical honor society. For most of medical school he was certain he would become an orthopedic surgeon. Dermatology changed his mind in his final year. He completed his internship in internal medicine and his dermatology residency at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where he served as chief resident and ran the resident clinic. After residency, he practiced at several Manhattan offices, including Tribeca Park Dermatology, Mudgil Dermatology and Gendler Dermatology. He calls those years an education in running a practice as much as in medicine. “Every office taught me something,” he said. “I worked alongside some wonderful doctors, and I took something from each of them. By the time I had my own practice, I had a clear picture of the kind of place I wanted to build.” Inheriting a legacy Park Avenue Dermatology has deep roots. Dr. Robert L. Warner, who trained at Mount Sinai and spent years on its clinical faculty, entered private practice in 1981 and cared for Upper East Side families for more than four decades. Glodny acquired the practice from Warner and his partner, Dr. Jeff Roth. Roth retired as Glodny arrived, and for a stretch, the practice was the two of them: Warner, with a lifetime of patient relationships, and Glodny, with a plan for what came next. Warner has since retired, and Glodny is quick to give him credit. “Dr. Warner laid the blueprint for this practice,” he said. “His patients trusted him completely, and he trusted me with them. My job is to honor that and keep building on it.” 72

MANN OF THE HOUR Twice the space, a new identity The first big move was physical. Glodny doubled the practice’s footprint from roughly 1,500 square feet to 3,000 and had the entire office redesigned from the ground up. He brought in architect Hedieh Allameh—of Allameh Architecture—and Conrad Builders—led by Connor Cairns—handled construction. The idea behind the rebrand was simple: bring downtown dermatology uptown. Glodny wanted the relaxed, friendly energy of a downtown practice, paired with the clinical depth patients expect on Park Avenue. The old wood-and-shadow look gave way to light, modern rooms, cool decor and art that patients tend to notice before anything else. The practice got a fresh image to match and now goes simply by Park Ave Derm. “A doctor’s office doesn’t have to feel like a doctor’s office,” Glodny said. “I wanted people to walk in and relax. When you’re comfortable, you ask more questions, and that makes for better care.” What’s new in the treatment rooms The extra space made room for technology the old office could not hold. The practice now offers a deep bench of laser treatments, including picosecond lasers for pigmentation and tattoo removal, vascular lasers for redness and rosacea, CO2 resurfacing and AviClear for acne. Radiofrequency skin tightening, including eXperience Exponential radio frequency (XERF) and Morpheus8, addresses laxity on the face and body without surgery. Injectables remain central. Glodny’s approach to Botox and fillers is deliberately restrained. He often asks patients to bring in older photos of themselves as a reference, and his goal is for friends to say they look rested, not that they had something done. Hair restoration is one of the practice’s biggest additions. Patients can now get everything from medical treatment and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to surgical hair transplantation under one roof. None of this came at the expense of medical dermatology. Skin cancer screening, surgical excisions, acne, eczema and psoriasis are still the core of the practice, and Park Ave Derm accepts most insurance plans. The team Glodny’s other major project has been recruiting, and the roster he has built carries some of the strongest academic credentials in the city.

Dr. Tyler Andriano studied nutritional sciences at Cornell before earning his medical degree at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, where he graduated near the top of his class and was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha. He completed a transitional year at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and his dermatology residency at Montefiore Medical Center, where he was chief resident. His nutrition background shapes a wholepatient approach across medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology. “I wanted to work with doctors I would send my own family to,” Glodny said. “Each of them is excellent at something specific, and patients benefit from having all of that under one roof.” The physicians are only part of the picture. Glodny is quick to credit the staff who keep the practice running, led by office manager Scarlett Valdez, whose resourcefulness has carried the office through the expansion and everything since. The front desk team sets the tone the moment patients walk in, and the clinical staff keep every visit running smoothly behind the scenes. “Patients remember how they were treated at the front desk as much as in the exam room,” Glodny said. “Scarlett and our whole team are a big reason people keep coming back.” Beyond the practice Glodny also teaches. As voluntary faculty at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and NewYork-Presbyterian, he instructs dermatology residents in cosmetic procedures, and he is a frequent source for beauty and health editors. At home, his life is just as full. He and his husband are raising two children: a four-year-old daughter and a two-year-old son. “Being a dad changed how I think about time,” he said. “I want every hour at the office to count, for my patients and for my team, so I can be fully present when I get home.” More than four decades after Warner entered private practice, the practice at 580 Park Avenue is bigger, brighter and better equipped than ever, and Glodny is clear about what has not changed. “The building blocks are the same,” he said. “Listen to people, take your time and treat every patient like family. We just have a much better home to do it in now.” Park Avenue Dermatology is located at 580 Park Avenue, Suite 1, New York, NY 10065. For appointments, call (212) 752-3692 or visit parkderm.com.

Dr. Dawn Queen leads hair restoration. A Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Columbia University, she earned her medical degree at Columbia’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, where she was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha, and completed her dermatology residency at Columbia University Medical Center as chief resident. She is fellowship-trained in hair restoration and hair loss, performs the practice’s hair transplants, and has published on hair transplantation and hair loss treatment in the journal Dermatologic Surgery. Dr. Jesse Yoon is double board-certified in dermatology and internal medicine. A Brown University graduate, he earned his Doctor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, completed an internal medicine residency at Washington University in St. Louis and then returned to Mount Sinai for dermatology residency. He treats the full range of skin, hair and nail conditions and sees the skin as a window into overall health.

MANN OF THE HOUR For more than three decades, Dr. Michael J. Hall has worked at the intersection of medicine, longevity and human performance. The Miami-based, board-certified physician has built his practice around an elegant proposition: A longer life matters only when it is accompanied by clarity, strength, independence and the freedom to enjoy it. At Hall Longevity Clinic, Hall creates highly personalized programs for an international clientele spanning entertainment, business and professional athletics. His clients have included Drake, Sir Michael Caine, Ryan Seacrest, Kodak Black and former New York Giants linebacker Jonathan Beason. Their objectives may differ—from sharper cognition and sustained performance to greater resilience and vitality— but the ambition remains the same: more years at their best. EXTENDING THE PRIME OF LIFE Hall’s philosophy was shaped by his grandmother, who lived to 104 but experienced dementia during the final 15 years of her life. Her experience taught him that lifespan alone is an incomplete measure of success. The true objective is healthspan: remaining mentally present, physically capable and fully engaged in life. “It’s about staying healthy, energetic and independent for as long as you can,” Hall said.

metabolism and stress converge to influence the body’s adaptive reserve. As these pressures compound, the funnel narrows—and vitality, performance and independence may narrow with it. The Aging Funnel does not promise to eliminate aging. It offers something more credible: a way to understand, measure and meaningfully influence how we age. “The greatest misconception is that a supplement or medication is going to transform your life,” Hall said. “There is no magic pill.” THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF LONGEVITY Hall translates this science into his 10 commandments of longevity: protect sleep, move every day, preserve muscle, eat real food, manage stress, challenge the mind and invest in meaningful relationships. These principles are intentionally simple. Their sophistication lies in how they are personalized and practiced consistently. At Hall Longevity Clinic, Hall integrates medical history, advanced laboratory testing, physiology, lifestyle and individual goals into a precise longevity plan. When clinically appropriate, care may also include hormone optimization, peptides, regenerative medicine and other emerging therapies.

Rather than concentrating solely on visible signs of aging, his work examines what is happening beneath the surface: metabolism, inflammation, hormonal balance, muscle, cognition, sleep, stress and the body’s diminishing ability to recover. For Hall, youth is not simply an appearance. It is energy, resilience, performance and agency.

Yet technology and treatment remain supporting instruments. The foundation is still the disciplined practice of living well. In a field crowded with trends and shortcuts, Hall offers something rarer: clinical judgment, discretion and a coherent philosophy of care. His work is not about chasing youth. It is about preserving strength, clarity, independence and the capacity to live exceptionally.

The Best Road Trips Don’t Always End at a Campground

MANN ABOUT TOWN • NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026

ON THE UPSWING

There’s something freeing about traveling by RV. You can take the back roads instead of the interstate, linger in a town you love or change plans entirely because a scenic overlook, farm stand, winery or brewery caught your eye. But even the most spontaneous road trip comes down to one practical question by late afternoon: Where are we going to spend the night? For a growing number of RVers, the answer isn’t always a campground. It’s a vineyard at the peak of harvest, a working farm with a shop full of that morning’s produce, a brewery with a patch of gravel out back. RV travel has also shed its old image. It’s no longer just the domain of retirees or long-haul vacationers, it’s become a flexible way for families and younger travelers to see more of the places they pass through, one overnight at a time.That shift has created interest in less traditional overnight stops. Farms, wineries, breweries and other local businesses are becoming part of the RV travel landscape, giving travelers a chance to stay somewhere connected to the community they’re visiting rather than simply pulling into a campground for the night. RV Overnights is built around this idea. The founder-owned company connects RV travelers with thousands of participating locations across the U.S. and Canada, including farms, wineries, breweries and other businesses. Founders Rob Case and Kurt Nehlig are RVers themselves and longtime entrepreneurs, and their own experiences on the road helped shape the company. The concept is relatively simple: travelers request an overnight stay at a participating location and, instead of paying a camping fee, guests are encouraged to spend a little time and money at the business hosting them—a wine tasting, a few jars of honey, a package of local meat, maybe dinner at the on-site restaurant. The overnight stop becomes part of the visit, not just a place to park. It’s a model that suits the way a lot of RVers already like to travel, letting the season dictate the route rather than the other way around. Head to New England in the fall for colorful back roads and apple picking. In the winter, travelers turn south toward milder weather and coastal towns across the South and Southwest. Spring and summer open up the West and Northwest for desert landscapes and mountain drives. The RV doesn’t have to sit idle between trips, it just goes where the weather’s good.

Traditional campgrounds, of course, remain an important part of RV travel. They offer amenities that can be especially useful on longer trips, including hookups, showers, laundry and a flat pad to park on during a longer trip. But for travelers with selfcontained RVs, a quieter or more unusual setting can be appealing, particularly when it happens to be near somewhere they already wanted to explore. An overnight stop at a local BBQ joint is a chance to try a regional favorite, chat with the pitmaster and pick up locally made sauces, rubs and goods you won’t find on the interstate. Other hosts lean into the unexpected altogether. RV Overnights lets you explore and stay at offbeat, historic sites—like a former missile silo—each one still a small business counting on travelers who stop for the night. Staying at a host does take a bit of planning because they aren’t set up like a full-service campground. Travelers should check the details of any overnight location in advance like arrival times, vehicle size, pets and what hookups, if any, are available as they all vary by location. It’s also worth thinking about when you arrive. Getting there while a business is open makes it easier to meet the host, browse the farm shop or enjoy a tasting without feeling rushed. Also, leaving some flexibility in the itinerary can turn an overnight stop into an opportunity to explore a nearby trail, smalltown main street or local restaurant. For RV Overnights members, the company also offers a service called StayScout for travelers looking for a host in an area where one isn’t currently available. Members can submit a destination, travel dates and preferred type of host, giving the company an opportunity to reach out to local businesses about potential overnight stays. The company’s annual membership is currently $49.99 and includes access to participating locations, the RV Overnights app and additional RV-related resources and discounts. Stays must be requested and approved in advance, and individual hosts determine their own availability and requirements. The overnight stop doesn’t have to be an afterthought. For RVers willing to plan a little differently, it can shape the whole route and give a reason to slow down somewhere they might otherwise have just driven past.

MANN OF THE HOUR

CARL BOYANTON 40 Years Watching America’s

Food System Change By Jeremy Murphy

Carl Boyanton has spent 40 years close enough to America’s food supply to know that what ends up on a supermarket shelf is only the final chapter of a much bigger story. The self-made entrepreneur and agricultural pioneer has worked the warehouse floor, built produce businesses, imported and exported food, dealt with transportation and food safety, and watched entire agricultural movements rise from the margins. He was getting involved in organic produce in the 1980s, long before organic became a fixture in American supermarkets. Today, his attention is focused on what he believes could be the next major shift in agriculture: regenerative farming. “I believe that’s part of the future,” he said. Boyanton is featured in “Rejuvenation Nation,” a documentary project examining regenerative agriculture, soil health, nutrition and the future of how America grows its food. Unlike someone discovering the movement from the outside, Boyanton approaches it with decades of experience in the industry and a farm of his own where he is putting the ideas to the test.

MANN OF THE HOUR HE HAS SEEN AGRICULTURAL TRENDS COME AND GO Boyanton grew up in Picayune, Mississippi, and began his career as a warehouse laborer at Charlie’s Produce. He eventually moved into leadership and built businesses of his own, gaining experience across the produce industry. “My company was among the early companies getting into organic back in the 1980s, and it took about 15 years before it became mainstream,” he said. He sees regenerative agriculture facing a similar test, although he believes the transition could be even harder. Organic agriculture primarily changed what farmers produced and what consumers purchased. Regenerative agriculture requires farmers to change how they actually work the land. “Traditionally, you till the soil,” he

Carole Crist, Carl Boyanton and Jackie Siegel

said. “When you till the soil, carbon and nitrogen are released, and then you need fertilizer to replenish the soil.” Regenerative farming takes an entirely different approach, seeking to reduce soil disturbance and rebuild the health of the land. For someone who has spent decades thinking about agriculture commercially, that distinction is significant. THE SOIL IS THE STORY Boyanton uses romaine lettuce to explain why. He said, “Some farmers rotate crops like romaine with other tilled crops such as broccoli or cauliflower. This rotation prevents one crop from depleting all the soil’s nutrients. However, other farmers replant the same crop repeatedly, causing disease to show up and weakening the crop. A lot of the land used for lettuce and romaine has been used for the same crop for years or decades. Every growing area is also different; crops are grown all over the U.S. and Mexico. In Yuma, f o r e x a m p l e, t h e y alternate with wheat or soybeans.” He dives deeper into these key practices in “Rejuvenation Nation,” which examines the relationship between s o i l , f a r m i n g, fo o d and human health, following experts working to develop agricultural practices that can be productive without continually exhausting the resource at the foundation of the entire system. Fo r B oy a n t o n , t h e question was ultimately practical: Can it work? HE BOUGHT A FARM TO FIND OUT A few year s ago, Boyanton bought a farm in Mississippi and turned it into his own testing ground. “I want to determine what we can grow commercially in Mississippi,” he said. The property is less about producing a particular crop than figuring out what is

possible using regenerative methods, particularly crops that are heavily produced in other parts of the country. “We need to diversify where we grow our food,” he said. “California isn’t going to be able to supply everything forever.” He believes Mississippi has far more agricultural potential than it gets credit for. “We can grow just about anything here,” Boyanton said. “It’s a matter of figuring out the process.” He plans to give away the produce from the farm, allowing the property to function primarily as a research operation. FROM HEALTHY SOIL TO SAFER FOOD Boyanton’s interest doesn’t stop when a crop leaves the field. His background in produce has also drawn him toward food safety and shelf life. He is involved with a patented water-based technology intended to address pathogens including E. coli, salmonella and listeria while remaining food safe. He is also examining its potential to extend the shelf life of produce. One experiment involved zucchini. Boyanton treated the vegetable, placed it in a Ziploc bag and put it in his refrigerator. Then he forgot about it. “Forty-one days later, I took it out, cut it up and ate it,” he said. It is the kind of hands-on test that captures Boyanton’s approach. He wants to see what happens in the real world, not simply discuss what might happen in theory. His interest in food also extends to nutrition. Through a charitable organization, he has worked on providing healthy foods to people dealing with chronic diseases, including medically tailored boxes of fruits and vegetables designed around conditions such as diabetes and high cholesterol. For Boyanton, these subjects are connected. The health of the soil affects the crops. The crops become food. And food ultimately affects people. THE NEXT CHAPTER Boyanton knows that changing agriculture will not happen overnight. “I’ve been in produce for so long, though, I know this is a long process,” he said. But he also knows what it looks like when an idea that once seemed unconventional becomes part of the mainstream. That is what drives him to take a stand in “Rejuvenation Nation.” Boyanton’s dedication to regenerative agriculture goes beyond the screen. The Mississippian is taking his years of experience to a public-facing role, as he runs as an Independent to represent Mississippi’s 4th Congressional District this month and ensure that his fellow farmers’ voices are heard on Capitol Hill. carl4congress.com

BEHIND THE LENS By R. Couri Hay

The Opening of the NY Phil The opening night of the New York Philharmonic9 (NYP) featured an impromptu comedy act by Alec Baldwin, which had everybody flashing back to the days when he impersonated Trump. Baldwin leaned over the stage and asked a female concertgoer, “How much did you pay for your ticket?” The actor was so impressed with her answer that he said, “Come closer,” and gave her a kiss on the cheek, then he nodded toward a male patron and gave him a peck as the audience went wild. Then he was signaled it was time to introduce the Phil’s new conductor, Gustavo Dudamel, which he did to massive applause. The concert also included two songs by Tony Award-winner Brian Stokes Mitchell, famous for his role in “Man of La Mancha.” Toward the end of the evening, the maestro told a story about Steven Spielberg and the musical “West Side Story, ” then a spotlight hit the famous director, seated in a box. The “ET” legend waved to the adoring crowd, then the orchestra played the theme to his new hit “Disclosure Day,” a surprise addition to the program. The night’s standing ovation was led by designer Carolina Herrera, NYP President and CEO Matías Tarnopolsky, Prince Dimitri of Yugoslavia, composer Karen LeFrak, and her husband Richard LeFrak, Hilaria Baldwin, Kate Capshaw and Spielberg. The night raised $6.6 million. nyphil.org

Hearst Castle Comedian Chris Hardwick, who hosted “Talking Dead,” the show following the popular zombie series “The Walking Dead,” as well as “The Nerdist Podcast,” raised a tidy sum as the witty auctioneer at the Hearst Castle Preservation Foundation’s annual Benefit Weekend in San Simeon, California. Hardwick raised enough money to restore the 16th-century Venetian painting “Venus and Cupid” by Paris Bordone by selling items such as tickets to “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen,” dinner at iconic chef Eric Ripert’s Le Bernardin and a private swim in Hearst Castle’s famous Neptune Pool. Stars including Charlie Chaplin, Greta Garbo, Winston Churchill, Jean Harlow, Clark Gable and Howard Hughes once frolicked as guests of media baron William Randolph Hearst, who built the castle as a private residence starting in 1919 and was immortalized in the legendary Orson Welles movie “Citizen Kane.” His granddaughter Anne Hearst McInerney chaired the gala, which honored Joseph O. Tobin II, who has been chairman of the foundation for 25 years. Board members greeting the guests included Hardwick’s wife, actress and producer Lydia Hearst, and Paula and Randy Hearst Harris. Others at the festive weekend that had a “La Dolce Vita” theme included Katharina Otto and Nathan Bernstein, Dede Tobin, James Reginato, Katrina and Ben Berube, Justine and Robert Bloomingdale, Gregory Hampton, Naeem Delbridge, Scott Buchheit and luxury event planner Alison Mazzola, who orchestrated the fun three-day weekend.

Magical Music at Vaux-le-Vicomte BY MICHÈLE GERBER KLEIN Built between 1658 and 1661 for 24-year-old Nicolas Fouquet, viscount of Melun and Vaux, and superintendent of finances for Louis XIV, Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is a seminal work of architecture because it was here that architect Louis Le Vau, landscape architect André Le Nôtre and painter-decorator Charles Le Brun worked together for the first time. This innovative collaboration marked the beginning of the Louis XIV style. Although the king was so jealous when he saw the resulting residence that he imprisoned Fouquet for the rest of his life, the enchantment of Vaux has endured through the centuries. Today it is owned by the de Vogüé family, who host a small dinner every two years to raise money to keep its fabulous grounds intact.

New York Is Ground Zero for a Seismic Shift in Dental Care From AI-powered diagnostics and pain-free cleanings to preventionﬁrst memberships, a new model taking hold in New York City is challenging the traditional dental care paradigm BY MERILEE KERN, MBA

For generations, routine dental care in New York has followed a familiar rhythm. You squeeze an appointment into an already packed schedule, get the cleaning and X-rays, hear what needs attention and hope the bill is manageable. If nothing hurts, it can be tempting to put off the visit altogether. But a different approach to dental care is emerging in New York City, and it could change how residents think about everything from cleanings and cavities to cost and convenience. A prevention-first model built around more frequent access, advanced diagnostics and a direct membership price instead of traditional dental insurance is gaining traction. Wally Health, a New York-based oral care company, is pushing that model aggressively. The company recently raised $25 million in Series A funding led by Maveron, with participation from Bling Capital and angel investors—including Hims cofounder Jack Abraham. Wally also announced a strategic partnership with EMS Dental, maker of the Airflow cleaning technology used in its clinics. The funding is significant because Wally is no longer testing a niche concept with a small group of early adopters. The company says it has surpassed 50,000 members, who visit an average of three times per year and give the platform a 4.9-star rating. Wally reports a 97% hygienist retention rate and plans to grow from 15 locations to 100 by the end of 2027. Its current footprint includes New York City—as well as Philadelphia, Jersey City and Chicago— with expansion planned into additional major metropolitan markets. Why Prevention Could Resonate With New Yorkers For New Yorkers, convenience is not a minor consideration. A dental appointment competes with work, commuting, family responsibilities and virtually everything else packed into city life. Wally’s model attempts to remove some of that friction by placing locations in co-working spaces, using an app for scheduling and records, and eliminating insurance from the basic membership transaction. 90

The broader need for preventive dental care is substantial. The American Dental Association Health Policy Institute reports that only 40% of working-age adults ages 19 to 64 had a dental visit in 2022, with affordability, fear and difficulty finding a convenient location or appointment among the leading reasons adults avoid dental care. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 21% of adults ages 20 to 64 have at least one untreated cavity. Wally’s bet is that people will use preventive care more often when the experience becomes easier, more comfortable and financially predictable. Its membership costs $249 per year and, according to the company, includes unlimited preventive cleanings and whitening, exams and diagnostics without dental insurance. Members can also access other treatments at separate member pricing. That potentially changes the calculation for a New Yorker deciding whether another cleaning is worth the time and expense. A cleaning no longer has to feel like a scarce benefit rationed around an insurance schedule. If a clinician believes another hygiene visit would be beneficial, the membership model removes the per-cleaning charge within Wally’s program. The company says its members already average three visits annually, a behavioral detail that may ultimately prove more consequential than the subscription price itself. Tyler Burnett, Wally’s co-founder and CEO, puts the critique more sharply. “For 50 years, dentistry has run on simple math: Get someone in the chair, find something to fix, bill the insurance, repeat,” he said. “Private equityrun dentistry perfected it. It works. Just not for people. The future is not more dentistry. We’re rebuilding oral healthcare from the ground up by taking insurance out of the equation and focusing entirely on proactive, technologydriven care.” What the Technology Actually Changes Wally combines that membership structure with technology designed to give patients a more detailed view of what is happening in their

MANN ABOUT TOWN • NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2026

mouths. The company uses digital X-rays, 3D intraoral scans, saliva testing and AI-assisted detection. Members can view diagnostic results and clinical recommendations through Wally’s app, which also handles appointment booking. The cleaning experience is different, too. Wally uses EMS Dental’s Airflow system and Guided Biofilm Therapy rather than relying exclusively on traditional metal scraping. Wally and EMS Dental say the technology removes biofilm and stain-causing bacteria using a controlled stream of air, warm water and fine powder. For New Yorkers who postpone appointments because they dislike traditional cleanings, comfort could have practical consequences. Making an appointment easier to tolerate may make people more willing to return, particularly when they are not restricted to the conventional twice-a-year schedule. Jason Stoffer, partner at Maveron, sees the combination of clinical hardware and software as central to the model. “Wally does something no one else in dental has pulled off: pain-free cleanings in half the time, on a single AI-driven platform that runs scheduling, operations and guides clinicians through every appointment,” Stoffer said. “Dentistry hasn’t had a consumer brand people actually like. We think Wally is that brand, and the hardware, diagnostics and AI behind it are what make it durable.” A Wally customer, Natasha S., describes the appeal in more personal terms. “Wally is the best dental experience I’ve ever had. They really go above and beyond to understand your dental history, how you feel, what your worries are. They’re wonderful at explaining the how’s and why’s of what they’re doing. I tell everyone I know to go there.” One of the Biggest Promises Requires Some Precision Wally also offers what it calls non-invasive cavity reversal for appropriate early-stage decay. That phrase deserves context. A fully developed cavity is not something a consumer should expect to erase with an app, cleaning or whitening treatment. Early enamel demineralization is different. The CDC notes that dentists may recommend fluoride or other products to stop small cavities, which is why identifying decay early can materially change the treatment conversation. For consumers, this is where more frequent monitoring can have practical value. Ask to see the images. Ask whether a suspicious area represents an early non-cavitated lesion or established decay. Ask what evidence supports monitoring or remineralization instead of

ON THE UPSWING drilling and what would trigger a change in treatment. If a provider says a lesion can be watched, you should also know when it will be checked again. The same scrutiny should apply to AI. AIassisted dental diagnostics can help clinicians identify and display areas that warrant attention, but software does not replace a clinical examination or professional judgment. The useful consumer question is not simply whether a New York dental office “uses AI.” Ask what the system analyzes, how the clinician verifies its findings and whether you can see the underlying X-ray or scan yourself. Wally also offers custom nightguards and clear aligner orthodontic treatment, which it says can cost about half the price of brand-name competitors. Consumers comparing those services should look beyond the headline price. Ask who supervises treatment, what records and imaging are included, how refinements are handled and what happens if your case becomes more complex than expected. In an Expensive City, Price Tansparency Matters Dental spending in the United States reached $189 billion in 2024, according to the ADA Health Policy Institute’s analysis of federal expenditure data. Out-of-pocket dental spending increased 3.3% from 2023 to 2024. Against that backdrop, a flat annual membership price is straightforward, particularly for consumers without useful dental coverage. Still, a membership is not the same thing as comprehensive dental insurance. New Yorkers considering the model should compare exactly what the annual fee covers, what costs extra, whether restorative or specialty care is provided on site and what happens if they need a root canal, crown, oral surgery or another treatment outside the membership. A $249 preventive-care membership is most meaningful when consumers understand those boundaries before they need more complicated care. That is also where Wally’s model becomes an interesting test of consumer behavior. Its combination of city locations, app-based scheduling and records, technology-driven diagnostics and a direct membership model removes several traditional points of friction surrounding dental visits. None of that makes brushing, flossing, fluoride or appropriate clinical treatment obsolete. It potentially makes prevention easier to access and easier to repeat.

New York as a Proving Ground for a Broader Dental Shift New York is particularly relevant to what happens next. Wally is based here and has already established a presence in the city while preparing for a much larger national expansion. The company’s $25 million financing will help fund its planned growth toward 100 locations and hiring across clinical and operational teams. Scale will test whether the experience that attracted its first 50,000 members can hold as the footprint grows. But New York provides an early look at the larger proposition Wally is testing: whether consumers will treat oral care more like an ongoing health routine when appointments become easier to access, pricing becomes more predictable and preventive visits are not limited by a traditional insurance schedule. An EMS Dental representative described the behavioral goal this way in materials supplied for the announcement: “For decades, dental visit frequency has remained completely flat because people dreaded traditional, painful appointments. Wally has achieved what the industry thought was impossible: getting patients to visit more than twice per year. That massive shift in patient behavior is enabled by our Airflow technology, which turns uncomfortable scraping into a fast, painless, spa-like experience. We are proud to partner with and invest in a team that is setting a new standard for preventative care.” For New Yorkers, the smartest response to this shift is neither blind enthusiasm nor automatic loyalty to the old model. Compare. Look at what you actually spent on preventive dental care last year. Check what your insurance covered and what you paid yourself. Consider how often you went, whether discomfort, cost or scheduling kept you away and whether your provider gives you diagnostic information you can understand. Then compare the alternatives based on the care itself, not simply the membership fee. The strongest idea behind preventionfirst dentistry is remarkably practical: Find problems earlier, make routine care easier to repeat and give patients enough information to participate in decisions about their own mouths. With New York serving as one of its earliest proving grounds, Wally now has $25 million riding on the proposition that consumers are ready to behave differently when dental care is built around that premise.
