L andmark The Watermill Center has played host to summer programs for 20 years.
Melting Pot Under the guidance of Robert Wilson, a diverse group of artists gather at the Watermill Center every year for a summer of creative expression. by roger ferris

or the past 20 years at the beginning of every summer, the Byrd Hoffman Water Mill Foundation erects tent studios in preparation for the start of The Watermill Center’s International Summer Program (since 2008 the foundation has also provided tuition for each participant). Located in the vast western courtyard, the tents serve as iconic harbingers of the arrival of some 60 to 80 artists from around the world. And while they may arrive without a common language, they share the purpose of immersing themselves in an interdisciplinary exploration of art under the direction of Robert Wilson, Watermill’s founder and artistic director. The artists are chosen from hundreds of applicants of diverse age groups, nationalities, and artistic disciplines that include dancers, sculptors, actors, musicians, writers, visual artists, technicians, carpenters, and architects. They become part of a virtual artistic commune—they live and work together and share the responsibilities of daily life. Indeed, the daily chores serve to facilitate the bonding process. The days are spent in workshops with Wilson and his collaborators, and the nights are filled with guest lecturers and various symposia. The Watermill Center welcomes year-round visitors and artists who come to witness the rigor and vitality of a thriving collective consciousness. 39 Water Mill Towd Road, Water Mill, 726-4628; watermillcenter.org H
L andmark Roseann Bucking has run this traditional Sag Harbor “five-and-dime” since 1970.
Treasure Hunt In a place as glamorous as the East End, aN OLD-FASHIONED, small-town experience is very much cherished. by michelle mccool

I
first visited Sag Harbor 20 years ago. As a young fashion journalist, I was focused on the newness of life—the latest trends, parties, and restaurants. To happen upon a store that was so perfectly traditional was in itself inspiring. The Sag Harbor Variety Store carries everything from crafts and kitchen supplies to tourist T-shirts. First opened in 1922 by Edward Hansen as a Main Street five-and-dime, it was bought by Philip and Roseann Bucking in 1970, and after Philip’s death in 2008, it continues to be run by Roseann and their daughter, Lisa Field. Walking through its selection of everyday items is like a treasure hunt. Over the years, I’ve made countless dinner party centerpieces from aluminum tins, flowerpots, small American flags, and yards of fabric. The store carries the best ticking-stripe fabric on the East End. My children, Carolina and Michael, enjoy the hunt as much as I do. They scour the aisles spotting materials for rainy-day projects. We’ve made elaborate Halloween masks, firefly homes, and homemade tattoos. One stone in the right shade of turquoise can inspire costumes for a complete production of Frozen. No trip to the Sag Harbor Variety Store would be complete without a pony ride. Guarding the storefront like a centurion is a 25-cent mechanical pony. Soon Carolina and Michael will outgrow the pony. But rest assured, it will be there for the next generation of explorers. 45 Main St., Sag Harbor, 725-9706; sagharborvariety.com H

I cannot help but think about what a wonderful summer it has been. Hamptons magazine partnered with Guild Hall, the Parrish Art Museum, and The Watermill Center, to name just a few, on programs that have raised awareness and, most recently, funds for Southampton Hospital through our artist-designed surfboard program. On page 94, Coppy Holzman of Charitybuzz, the engine that powered our online auction, talks about what he has created with this platform for philanthropy and how he has forever changed the process of online bidding. This issue is also representative of how we are able to bring together the greats in all fields. A power panel of the always perfectly turned out—Alina Cho, Anne Keating, Andrew Saffir, and Lizzie Tisch—amassed this season’s best-dressed list. Our cover stars, PGA ambassador and former NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani and Raymond Floyd, vice captain of the 2014 Ryder Cup, discuss their history with the sport (including Floyd’s 1986 US Open win here at Shinnecock) and this month’s upcoming Ryder Cup. The two also work tirelessly to raise awareness for the PGA Foundation, which helps give children in need access to the game of golf. Also in this issue are a number of Follow me on Twitter at collaborations in food and fashion. Chefs @samanthayanks and on Marc Murphy, Scott Conant, and hamptons-magazine.com Geoffrey Zakarian have a boys’ day on the beach, sharing recipes, creating new ones, and enjoying a fine cigar, while Andrew Steinthal and Chris Stang have come together to form the powerful restaurant review duo The Infatuation. And Fox 5 News anchor Rosanna Scotto and her family create a Parmigiana-centric menu for a family dinner in their Southampton home that speaks to another trend we saw this summer—compound living, where families like the Scottos share not only each other’s company but also a roof over their heads. Meanwhile, Jennifer Creel and Christine Mack created the aptly named accessories line Creel-Mack, available at their friend Jackie Astier’s concept shop in Southampton. And actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler joined forces with Holly Freeman for their chic, ethical jewelry line, CJ Free. Thank you for allowing us to tell your stories this summer and a special gratitude to our readers for their support over Hamptons magazine’s past 36 years.

Labor Day weekend marks the official end of the summer season. It’s hard to believe that it has gone so fast. We have enjoyed so many wonderful and memorable times here on the East End. With Tumbleweed Tuesday upon us, we know that the beautiful month of September is our special secret and that Indian summer will continue to grant us wonderful weather and a quieter vibe. With this letter I’d like to thank the extended team that puts out our weekly magazine with the breadth and magnitude that is accomplished with professional journalism, the quality of the photography, the incredible and hardworking events marketing team, the sales team, and our invaluable dedicated interns. To our clients and partners, a huge Follow me on Twitter at thank you for continuing to support @debrahalpert and on this magazine and our mission to hamptons-magazine.com connect, capture, and celebrate our community with consciousness. To our readers, we are always striving to be better, giving you a great summer read, but also one that makes you think, aims to inspire, and challenges you to have the very best and richest experience in our community. This summer alone with our “Summer of Giving” campaign, we have raised money and awareness for more than 50 charities throughout the Hamptons, making a great impact here at home. Through the creation of nine artist-designed surfboards auctioned on the philanthropic website Charitybuzz, we raised more than $47,500 for Southampton Hospital alone. Now we take a break for a while and will return with our holiday issue, just in time for the Thanksg iving festivities. Enjoy the beautiful fall season ahead, the slower pace out here, and I’ll see you in town.

legend like Mayor Giuliani. It was fun watching him take chip shots with Ray Floyd looking on. Where is your favorite spot to shoot in the Hamptons? If I could take pictures
anywhere out East, it would be Montauk. I love that it’s still a little on the raw side.

tennis, and then I head to Gleneagles in Scotland to cover the Ryder Cup. What is your favorite place in the Hamptons?

Golf packages in the Hamptons are especially popular as well as meet-and-greets with business leaders—more so than encounters with celebrities. “Warren Buffett will get more than Reese Witherspoon; former Mayor Bloomberg went for more than George Clooney,” says Holzman, whose site has helped raise funds for Hamptons-based philanthropies including Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation, The Ellen Hermanson Foundation, Ross School’s Live @Club Starlight, and Southampton Hospital. “One of the benefits of Charitybuzz is that prior to us getting started, if you did an auction it was confined to just the people in that room. What we do is expand it to a global audience.” Some items auctioned off on Charitybuzz for various nonprofits include a private audience with the Pope, having an exclusive song written for you by Emmy Award-winning composer Michael John LaChiusa, and tickets to a Weinsteinsponsored Oscar party. “We haven’t had anything with Brad FROM TOP TO BOTTOM: Chevy Chase, Coppy Holzman, [Pitt] and Angelina [ Jolie] yet—that would be great,” says and Ted Danson at Christie’s Holzman of Charitybuzz, which broke its milestone of raising in NYC.

DYNAMIC DUO
Andrew Steinthal and Chris Stang tout the lobster rolls at Lunch as the East End’s best.
Eating Well After departing from their music-industry day jobs, the restaurant reviewers behind The Infatuation are eating their way to the top of the charts. by rachel felder
A
s cofounders of the restaurant review website The Infatuation, Andrew Steinthal and Chris Stang eat out every day when they’re in Manhattan. However, on weekends in East Hampton, they do the exact opposite. “The point is getting away from all that and just chilling out, relaxing, and cooking,” Stang explains. “It’s nice to not go out and just barbecue. Cooking really is a luxury sometimes.” Having the time to relax is a luxury as well for the pair, who have been working virtually nonstop since launching the site in 2009. Until this past April, they kept their music industry day jobs—Steinthal as a publicist at Warner Bros. Records, Stang handling marketing at Atlantic—and wrote the restaurant reviews during evenings and weekends. The Infatuation stands out Best lobster roll: Lunch in from other food websites, with an unpretentious, conversaAmagansett. “I’m a tional tone that feels like a chat about a new restaurant with a sucker for both the foodie friend as opposed to a name-dropping culinary essay. hot and cold ones. “We’re just trying to write the way we talk and tell a story, as Each hits the opposed to writing a restaurant review,” Steinthal explains. perfect balance for me,” says Steinthal. Offering an accessible guide for restaurant lovers was the goal from the start for the duo, who met 14 years ago as colPost-beach drink: The Living Room lege radio station directors while on a trip to NYC for a music at c/o The convention. (Andrew was at WICB/Ithaca College and Chris Maidstone is at KCSU/Colorado State University.) “There’s certainly a “funky, fun, and place for high-end, elite food journalism, but the majority different than of people we knew just didn’t connect to it,” Stang explains. most places—it appeals to the art “It’s always been for us about not being a resource for the crowd,” he says. elite, very culinary educated audience—it’s more of a resource for everybody.” On the weekends, Steinthal goes to his spacious, modern home in Northwest Woods, which he shares with his wife, Shoshana, a special education teacher, and their baby daughter, Lily. Stang visits frequently, with his girlfriend, Tamar Kaprelian, a musician and student. Grilling on the deck is a priority, typically including marinated skirt steaks from East Hampton Market and Pat La Frieda Meat Purveyors burgers, with takeout items like edamame dumplings on the side, always purchased from Round Swamp Farm. “It’s the best prepared food place out here,” Steinthal says. “Every single thing in that place is amazing.” Beyond cooking, the agenda also includes a trip to the beach (either Georgica or Two Mile Hollow), a morning run, and, inevitably, some review writing for the site. When they do go out, the pair usually stays away from anything too formal or trendy. “I’d rather stick to the beach vibe, places you can’t necessarily get back in the city,” Steinthal says. “You can always do better with the formal restaurants in Manhattan, but you can’t really beat the clam shacks and lobster roll type of things that come in fresh out east.” theinfatuation.com H

children to spell, but its meaning is really quite basic: the love of humanity and caring about promoting the welfare of others. My message is that philanthropy is the spirit of giving and can be a lifestyle choice without much extra effort. When I launched my jewelry line at Bergdorf Goodman in 2003, I introduced a unique approach. I let every customer who bought my jewelry choose which charity would receive 100 percent of the profits. Some women don’t care about jewelry or don’t care for my pieces, but I have yet to come across someone who isn’t interested in my “giving back” concept. I have donated a significant amount of money to more than 800 different nonprofits around the world that make a difference in the lives of others, all selected by my customers. But it’s not just the dollars that matter: Almost every customer who comes by my case and learns of its mission asks themselves: Where would I want to direct a donation? It is a catalyst for thinking of others. My hope is that it continues and gets shared. And while I’m sad that the summer is ending, the JALC concert on August 29 is not a swan song. We see it as a prelude to the next season of giving and just the beginning of a groundswell of others joining in by giving to make a difference. Wynton at Water Mill takes place Friday, August 29 at 675 Flying Point Road, Water Mill; wyntonmarsalis.org. Proceeds will benefit Jazz at Lincoln Center. jalc.org H

y friend James Lipton uses a famous series of psychological test questions at the end of each of his Inside the Actors Studio shows. Among them are: What is your favorite word? What is your favorite sound? I suspect, like me, viewers are providing their own answers. But the test omits one more critical question: What’s the best gift you have ever given? Every one of us can answer this question in our own way. We all have something to give regardless of our circumstances. That is what I try to illustrate through my Joan Hornig Jewelry (joanhornig.com) model of giving back, through speaking engagements on the topic of social entrepreneurship, and by hosting fundraising and awareness events in the Hamptons and NYC. This summer my husband, George, and I used our Water Mill property to attempt to bring this focus on giving back into the fabric of our social life and also engage others in our passion for charity. For four Saturdays in August, we hosted fundraisers for several organizations close to our hearts, including the upcoming August 29 concert with Wynton Marsalis and his quartet to raise money for Jazz at Lincoln Center ( JALC). We’ve been fortunate to help Artists for Justice and Peace in Haiti (introduced to us through the artist Chuck Close) with a private dinner to support the organization, which provides free college education to students in Haiti. We raised funds for the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation’s powerful global work and helped raise awareness about the difficulties of the family court system for the Children’s Justice Campaign initiative begun by Kelly Rutherford and Patrice Lenowitz. We are looking forward to closing the last weekend of the summer with a crescendo of joy: the Wynton Marsalis performance at a cocktail reception and dinner party for 300 guests. Music is universal, and jazz is our country’s own language. Wynton and JALC embody my philosophy of philanthropy—individuals working together to make something good and lasting happen. My jewelry brand’s tag line is “Philanthropy is Beautiful.” Philanthropy is a funny word—it sounds pretentious and it’s hard for

New York City Mission Society funds programs, such as after-school dance classes, for the city’s underprivileged children.

Mission Accomplished
Cochair of the NYC MISSION SOCIETY’s summer party, Jean Shafiroff discusses participating in helping better the lives of NYC Youth.
E
ach year, New York City Mission Society works with over 9,000 of the most underserved children in the city. For over 200 years, this nonprofit organization has helped to shape a better future for our city’s children through a variety of programs, which are designed to promote healthy family relationships, strengthen community ties, and provide a great environment to enjoy neighborhood events and share holidays. NYC Mission Society helps children develop the confidence and tools to move forward in life. It’s a great privilege to be involved with this organization, and I am happy to serve as a cochair of the NYC Mission Society’s An Evening in the Hamptons summer party on August 30, along with Stan Rumbough. This event will take place at the beautiful East Hampton waterfront home of Ted and Dina Merrill Hartley, and will feature performances by Grammy Award-winning jazz pianist Arturo O’Farrill and singer Cole Rumbough. What I love most about NYC Mission Society is that all of us involved work together as a family

with one strong common mission. We all truly care about the future of the children. And that is the premise on which this organization was founded and why I choose to participate. I have very fond memories of a warm sunny day in August 2012, when I was invited to visit the Minisink Townhouse in Central Harlem. Upon entering the townhouse, I was greeted by a group of cheerful staff members and students. Several of the adolescents in the summer program served as ambassadors and led me on a group tour of the facility. I saw children playing soccer, tap dancing, and actively engaged in a variety of educational classes; all the children and teenagers were friendly, respectful, and well-mannered. After that visit, I was compelled to get involved with this wonderful nonprofit. In December 2012, I cochaired the NYC Mission Society’s Bicentennial Gala, which honored Kathryn Chenault and Cicely Tyson. And on March 12, 2014, at NYC Mission Society’s The Champions for Children Gala, I was privileged to be presented with the Dina Merrill
Hartley Public Service Award. The NYC Mission Society has a successful group of alumni, including William Allen, a Democratic district leader in Harlem and professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, who continues to devote time each week to NYC Mission Society. Allen is vocal about how instrumental the organization was in changing the direction of his life, and he always encourages the alumni to share their experiences so that they can serve as role models and help to shape future generations with success stories. I see a similar passion in NYC Mission Society’s new president, Elsie McCabe Thompson. She is surrounded by a team of people all working hard to accomplish the same goal. The NYC Mission Society helps to create better opportunities for the population of children it serves. Its programs keep the children off the streets and provide a “home away from home.” It helps to shape a brighter future and empower the children with life-changing experiences and classes. Please help make a difference by getting involved with this wonderful organization. H

Standing Up for a Cause I
n February 2007, Caroline Hirsch—founder of New York City’s famed comedy club Carolines on Broadway and a frequent visitor to the Hamptons since the 1970s—sat with rapt attention in front of her TV. To Iraq and Back: Bob Woodruff Reports told the story of the ABC News anchor’s recovery from traumatic brain injury. While embedded with infantry in Iraq, shrapnel from a roadside bomb struck Woodruff in the head. Hirsch’s sharp instincts, responsible for launching the careers of countless top-tier comics, detected an opportunity: Using her connections to some of entertainment’s biggest names, she could create a star-studded night in support of the Bob Woodruff Foundation,
112 hamptons-magazine.com
which Woodruff and his wife, Lee, created to help injured veterans return to their post-service lives—and thrive. On Wednesday, November 5, the eighth annual Stand Up for Heroes—the culmination of Hirsch’s initiative—will take place at the Theater at Madison Square Garden for the second year in a row; all proceeds will benefit the Bob Woodruff Foundation. “I was so moved about what happened to [Bob] and how he came back, got well, and wanted to raise funds to take care of other wounded soldiers,” says Hirsch. “We decided early on we should step in and help.” This year’s Stand Up for Heroes event also jump-starts a week of stellar stand-up appearances
in the New York Comedy Festival, produced by Carolines on Broadway. To date, Stand Up for Heroes has raised more than $20 million and, fueled by Hirsch’s and Woodruff’s clout, has booked the most talented comedy and musical performances on stage today. In 2013 Bruce Springsteen, Jon Stewart, Bill Cosby, Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters, among others entertained a sold-out crowd of 5,700 that included hundreds of veterans (some wounded) and their caretakers. More than $5 million was raised. This year’s lineup will be kept hush-hush until September but, according to Hirsch, the night has meant so much to past performers continued on page 114

continued from page 112 that they often return. “Bruce Springsteen will be back,” she confirms. “That’s the one performer we talk about.” After Woodruff’s documentary aired in 2007, Hirsch used her Rolodex to connect with Woodruff’s wife, Lee. “[Fellow producer] Andrew Fox and I sat down with Lee and, by May, we had a benefit coming,” recalls Hirsch. That first year, their efforts won sponsorships from the country’s largest media companies, including ABC, NBC, CBS, Time Warner, and Viacom. Conan O’Brien hosted the night at Town Hall. Talent like thenunknown Brian Regan performed alongside established names like Lewis Black, and the late Robin Williams. Nearly $3 million was raised. While Hirsch doesn’t have family members who have been injured in war, she has always had a soft spot for servicemen and servicewomen who have sacrificed so much. “When I was

growing up, I felt so bad for a lot of young men who didn’t go to college and went to Vietnam, and I remember how they were treated when they came home,” Hirsch says. “It just pulled at my heart strings.” She continues, “These soldiers went in, were brave, and protected us, and we have a duty to do something for them.” Tickets for Stand Up for Heroes range from the very expensive to the very affordable, says Hirsch, but regardless of seat location, the show— for patrons, and above all for servicemen, servicewomen, and their caretakers—is worth it. Performers shower praise on veterans who sit in the front row. “I was wheeling a young man down the aisle [during a past show], and he said, ‘We so look forward to coming to this every year,’” Hirsch recalls, adding, “People have told me that it is one of the most moving nights you can ever have.” When you’re talking about a sports stadium filled with New Yorkers, that is saying quite a lot. The Bob Woodruff Foundation and the New York Comedy Festival’s Eighth Annual Stand Up for Heroes takes place on Wednesday, November 5 at the Theater at Madison Square Garden in NYC.

Private Collector’s Tour Eric Firestone Gallery and The Hole take viewers behind the scenes with “Storage Wars.” by erin riley
“A
s gallerists, we are constantly crating and uncrating works between artists’ studios, storage spaces, and exhibition spaces; so we decided it would be fun to open up this dialogue,” explains Eric Firestone, who cocurates “Storage Wars” with gallerist Kathy Grayson of NYC’s The Hole. Poking fun at the reality TV show, the installation plays with the idea that the majority of an artwork’s life is spent in a crate. “Since seeing Kathy Grayson exhibit at an art fair booth in New York last spring, where she used solely crates and containers, I wanted to see something similar on a larger scale,” says Firestone, who was attracted to the materiality of the artist-art interaction—in that the pieces were given
a level of accessibility when displayed this way. Archived pieces by artists like Raymond Pettibon, Eric Freeman, Sanford Biggers, and Max Snow are seen among or within their original packaging. “They take on the identity of a forgotten or uncovered object, rather than a neatly hung piece of art,” explains Sagaponack-based artist Freeman, whose collection of dry pigment paintings diverge from his signature sleek-andiridescent style. “The texture created from dry pigment adds an element of decay to my new work, which adds an interesting layer to the exhibit’s theme.” “Storage Wars” is on display through September 7 at Eric Firestone Gallery, 4 Newtown Lane, East Hampton, 604-2386; ericfirestonegallery.com H Holton Rower, Stable Disfunction, 2012.

Palate Cleanser Tutto Il Giorno’s Southampton outpost is the toughest table to score and the most quintessential Italian meal to be had in the Hamptons. by gary walther photography by eric striffler
T
he walls are a cream and gray melody, the bar ceiling is pressed tin; the chandelier is a contemporary wagon wheel, and the strip of window along Nugent Street is mullioned. Like a good term paper, contemporary restaurant décor is often about citations, and the latest Hamptons edition of Tutto Il Giorno in Southampton cites with panache. (The brand opened in Sag Harbor seven years ago.) It’s not that Gabby Karan DeFelice, the cocreator and public face of the East End consortium behind the budding Tutto Il Giorno empire (Tribeca opens in September, and Miami is on the drawing boards), is cutting and pasting from décors past in this dog-leg dining room, but that she’s done what good decorators always do: cherry-pick to conjure ambience. Here, her canny calculus of past and present equals convivial. The banquettes along the Nugent Street side have a generous scatter of overstuffed
pillows; communal tables, one in the middle and another in an alcove at the back of the room, form the ribcage of the space; and the table density— this is the larger of the Tutto Il Giorno Hamptons siblings and, granted, you are pretty much elbow to elbow—seems to square the conviviality product. The room is a piazza, and at dinner, its pleasing dusk, a light stole descending, encourages the vivace. As Karan DeFelice says, “I’m very into making beautiful environments.” Tutto Il Giorno is the brainchild of a coalition of East End cognoscenti: Karan DeFelice and her husband, Gianpaolo; Larry and Maria Baum; David and Gally Mayer; and Maurizio and Holly Zierk Marfoglia. Karan DeFelice is the daughter of fashion designer Donna Karan, and she has inherited a talent for tailoring (space, not cloth) from her mother. Gally Mayer, a former continued on page 126

Maria Baum is a wired-in East End socialite, and a driving force behind Hamptons Paddle & Party for Pink, a breast-cancer charity that raised $1.2 million at its 2013 fête. (Edie Falco, Matt Lauer, Martha Stewart, and Aerin and William Lauder were among the guests.) Maurizio Marfoglia, formerly of Coco Pazzo, Le Madri, and Barolo, is the watch-cap-wearing executive chef and managing partner of the Tutto brand, and is now often on the floor of this Tutto, parenting his Southampton bambino. (The head chef at this Tutto is Alex Aparu.) With such a force field, one might expect Tutto to come with a halo of leading-lady dressing-room bulbs. But, no. The idea is: If you know us, you will come. Says Karan DeFelice, “None of our restaurants is on a main street,” and indeed the Nugent Street location, a block down from the shopping center at Main and Nugent, is on the down-low. (Up until recently, it had no website, but has launched one, tuttoilgiorno.com, to coincide with the Tribeca launch.) But then Tutto Il Giorno Southampton turns the world upside down by not taking reservations—an instance of bicep flexing or table democracy? The brown-paper menus, a nice la povera touch, seem to say the latter. And don’t try to get tough with Marfoglia. Confronted with the central-casting line, “Do you continued on page 128

continued from page 126 know who I am?” he is apt to respond, “No, do you know who I am?” Followed up with a deft left jab: “See. This is why you’re waiting for a table.” When Karan DeFelice says, “We brought Italy to the Hamptons,” she has a pretty good case. Marfoglia is from Milan, so a good part of the menu is Northern Italian. His signature dish is the ravioli with lamb ragú, but he’s also behind the wild mushroom risotto—deep, earthy, and creamy (a mortal sin of a dish)—and the lighter-than-air frying, a classic Milanese skill. The fritto, the must-have dish, is a coral reef of calamari and leeks, with the crust of the calamari taking on the texture of a light paper wrapper. “We dip it in milk,” Marfoglia tells me when I ask how he achieves this. Then comes the quintessential Italian line: “It’s something my grandmother told me.” The other side of the menu is Southern Italian, and here, too, there’s another woman, Gianpaolo’s mother. The penne melanzane, with the flavors like a trumpet, flourishes—that’s her recipe. There’s also paccheri, a sort of Neapolitan ravioli (the name is Italian for “a slap in the face”), here filled with a slowly cooked beef ragú, and cioppino, the classic Southern Italian seafood stew, which almost overflows the bowl and is lapped in a gossamer tomato sauce. Grandmother or mother-in-law? Tutto Il Giorno presents the ultimate Italian menu dilemma. You decide. 56 Nugent St., Southampton, 377-3611; tuttoilgiorno.com H

Bridgehampton’s Almond already had six beers and four wines served on tap. So owner Eric Lemonides figured, why not serve cocktails on tap, too? And just like that, he tapped into one of the hottest trends in the cocktail world right now: pre-batched cocktails, decanted into frosty bottles or pulled straight from the tap. Adding pre-batched drinks also solves one of his thorniest problems. “In July and August, we are battling the so-busy-youcan’t-keep-up kind of volume,” Lemonides confides. “You can’t do a 10-minute stirred drink à la minute.” But pre-batching drinks can mean speedy service, as quick as popping a bottle top. “It’s almost like cooking: We spend two hours every afternoon making the cocktails,” he explains. “We can now afford to have this amazing five-, six-, seven-step cocktail. When the customer opens the bottle, they can smell and taste apples, smoked cherries, molasses, and lemongrass puree cooked on the stove.” The top sellers include the bottled Lemongrass Cosmopolitan, a riff on the classic, sweetened with house-made lemongrass syrup, and the honey negroni, made with Barr Hill, a Vermont gin distilled from honey. Other bottled offerings include the lavender pear, made with lavender-infused gin, Channing Daughters Winery dry vermouth, pear liqueur, and amaro, and a rye Manhattan variation punched up with apricot and ancho chile liqueur. Meanwhile, margaritas and mojitos can be pulled straight from the tap. “It was a hard sell at the beginning,” Lemonides recalls. “But once customers realized that the drinks used local and quality ingredients, the orders started pouring in.” It doesn’t hurt to have customers witness others swigging from cute little bottles, either. “If people are at a table, we’ll ask if they want their negroni on the rocks or up. It’s served club style: We give them the bottle, the glass, the ice if they’re drinking on the rocks, and they pour it themselves.” Meanwhile, those at the bar are more likely to swig from the bottle. Cracking open a cold one just got a whole lot cooler. 1 Ocean Road, Bridgehampton, 537-5665; almondnyc.com

The Boys of Summer
three legendary NYC chefs venture out east for a beach day in montauk filled with food, friends, wine, and cigars. by scott feldman photography by ken goodman
S
ummers on the East End have always been an ideal backdrop for the ultimate dinner parties and A-list gatherings featuring a pictureperfect table, flowers, place cards, and appropriate place settings. But I thought, why not turn the tables and create a unique experience to celebrate the season and enjoy the last days of summer with the boys. I envisioned old-school Hamptons photos, when Montauk was still “the end of the island” and far enough out that most didn’t venture there. Even rock royalty like the Rolling Stones headed out East to get away from the craziness of the city in the mid-’70s. They secluded themselves with icons like Andy Warhol and Peter Beard, with Montauk eventually becoming their hideaway, where they created “Black and Blue.” This is the spot that set the stage for a modern-day “boys night out,” so to speak. It was nothing fancy, just a few guys cooking on the beach, drinking some great wine, and enjoying the surroundings. It is the Hamptons, and

we needed to at least hold up to standards. I invited three of the bad boys of culinary (as in “badass” at what they do) to join me. It didn’t take much getting this group together for some fun, conversation, and great food overlooking Gardiners Bay. It’s always hard to maneuver schedules, but not much arm-twisting was necessary. “Boys night out at the beach, us three? I’ll move around my schedule to be there,” said Geoffrey Zakarian. So the renowned chef and TV personality was the first in. It was sort of the ideal juxtaposition to the day, as he is known for his perfectly tailored appearance and upscale fare at his restaurants: the Lambs Club, The National, and the upcoming relaunch of food at The Plaza Hotel. Then it was our resident “guys’ guy”; spending as much time at Ditch Plains surfing as he does running his restaurant empire of Landmarc and continued on page 134

continued from page 132 Ditch Plains in Manhattan—Marc Murphy was a natural fit. Last to join was Scott Conant, an old friend and incredible chef, who bridges the “bad boy” image with the elegance and grace of his food at Scarpetta and his own sense of style. The table was set: We would each do a course, and, in the process, I would get some free cooking lessons from some masters. These days I seldom get nervous anymore, having been around so many of the world’s best in the kitchen. And then it hit me: These guys are all judges on Chopped for the Food Network. What have I done? Will they judge me? Will I get “chopped”? After some thought, I figured for a boys’ night, we need something more than just great chefs, incredible food, and wine, so, as a distraction from my lack of cooking prowess, I brought cigars. It had been a thought all along to pair each dish with the appropriate smoke to enhance the experience, so I invited the only one fit for the task: Michael Herklots. A good friend and great colleague of all the chefs, Herklots is the “chef” of sorts at Nat Sherman Cigars and Cigarettes in NYC, steering the brand and curating its premium selections. Everyone arrived around noon, and after getting somewhat settled (groceries and bags everywhere), it all started. “Do we have a bottle of rosé ready?” yelled Conant. It seemed all of them were ready for an extended day of camaraderie, cooking, and drinking. So we cracked a magnum of Wölffer rosé and, yes, lit our first cigar. Herklots had primed us for a smoke-filled afternoon, but he wanted to get our mouths warmed up as he lit each of us a Joel Sherman, 75th Celebration. As the day progressed, each chef prepared his dish, but not before
134 hamptons-magazine.com
Geoffrey Zakarian showed us how basic ingredients plus technique can create a rich, complex dish. Zakarian, famous for his cocktails, burst out, “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere,” as he always states on The Kitchen, the daytime show he cohosts on the Food Network. The first step in crafting his concoction was pitting cherries to soak in brandy to garnish the Lillet Rosé Sunset. After adding some other ingredients, we all grabbed glasses and toasted one another. It was time to get the fire going for Murphy’s Beach Shack beer can chicken. “It’s the perfect beach day thing to do,” says Murphy in his board shorts and T-shirt. “Let’s get this on the grill so we can get out on the water for a paddle.” Next, it was my turn to prep the chicken for the heat. I thought I should first take a sip of the Montauk Brewing Company’s Driftwood Ale—except I did not realize that, per the recipe, Murphy had stuffed two cloves of garlic into the can to season the chicken. Yikes, did that taste bad! After seasoning it, the cans went into the chicken, and it was on the grill for two hours. Adding a little smoke seemed like a fun impromptu addition, so after some puffs of our Nat Sherman Timeless Especiales, onto the coals went the remaining nubs. Next up was Conant with his shrimp and bottarga risotto with arugula. This seemed to be one of the more technical and preparation-heavy dishes of the three, but he made it a fun, interactive experience. While the flow of the day was progressing, it seemed we were waiting quite a bit for Conant’s components to get to temperature. However, it finally all came together, and he had me add the homemade shellfish stock and fresh shrimp from continued on page 136

continued from page 134 The Seafood Shop in Wainscott to make this luscious dish complete. After some more rosé, more cigars, and some time out on the water paddling, we reassembled at the table to prep Zakarian’s vibrant heirloom tomato, lobster with peaches, and burrata dish. While it was seemingly simple, Zakarian showed us how basic ingredients plus technique can create a rich, complex dish. After stuffing the lobster cavity with herbs and arugula, Zakarian placed the crustaceans from Citarella on the grill and cut the skin off the tomatoes and peaches, professing that no skin and no lobster claw tips in the dish make it perfect. At this point, it was my turn to go solo. After some gestures from the professionals, they let me do my thing. Charred shishito peppers and radishes from Balsam Farms are go-to summer starters for me. So simple, and, frankly, the key is a hot pan and letting them get perfectly charred. As the sun started to set, we made our way down to the beach, each with dishes in hand. Through the sea grass and onto the beach overlooking Gardiners Island, it seemed like a perfect setting for a boys’ night, as the island itself is known for its history of bad boys, including bootleggers, rum runners, pirates, and even Captain Kidd. Keeping it casual, we set our platters onto makeshift tables using our paddleboards and started an epic meal, laughing uncontrollably; the comical fodder that happens when this group gets together—unfiltered! Before we got into the food, Herklots paired each dish with a cigar, gave us a lesson on what we were smoking and explained the technical precision that goes into making a cigar and how it is like creating a perfectly balanced dish. As dusk set in, we toasted with some Averna Amaro and a 1930 Super Lancero to good friends and great times. It was like we had ended the summer on a perfect note from one of the East End’s legendary bad boys, Billy Joel: “We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday / And left this morning from the bell in Gardiners Bay.” For the full day’s menu, along with cigar pairings, visit hamptonsmagazine.com.

Beach Shack Beer Can Chicken Recipe courtesy of Marc Murphy SERVES 4 2 cans of beer 4 cloves garlic (peeled and halved) 2 chickens (whole, rinsed, and patted dry) 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil 4 tbsp. kosher salt 1 tbsp. ground black pepper 1 tbsp. chili flakes 1 ⁄2 cup herbs de Provence Get a good fire going on a charcoal grill (the coals will need to remain hot for about 2 hours). If you have any cigar nubs around, add those to the burning charcoal for a nice smoky flavor. Spill (or drink) about half the beer from each can. Place two cloves of garlic in each can. Oil the chickens with extra-virgin olive oil. In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, chili flakes, and herbs de Provence. Season chickens inside and out with the spice mixture. Place the beer cans into the chicken’s cavity. Place the chickens on a baking sheet, and set on the grill. Cover and cook on the grill for approximately 1 1⁄2 to 2 hours, depending on the size of the chickens, until the juices run clear. Remove from the grill and carefully lift the chickens off the beer cans. (Caution: The metal cans will be very hot!) Discard the cans, carve the chickens, and serve immediately.

Mangia! comfort food receiveS a Mediterranean spin as the East End celebrates Italy’s gastronomic delights and the close of the summer season. by matthew wexler
T
he last vestiges of summer are finding their way onto Tom Colicchio’s menu at Topping Rose House (One BridgehamptonSag Harbor Tpke., Bridgehampton, 537-0870; toppingrosehouse.com). Saffron garganelli pairs lobster and corn with a touch of Fresno and jalapeño chiles for a kick. Fresh mint, micro basil, and a drizzle of lemon olive oil complete the dish. Chef de Cuisine Kyle Koenig says the pasta’s shape is as integral to a successful dish as the sauce. Paccheri—a short-cut, widetube pasta—is an ideal vehicle for arugula pesto, fava beans, and walnuts, which snuggle into the crevices for a flavor-packed bite every time. Patience is a virtue for dishes like the risotto ai frutti di mare at Sant Ambroeus (30 Main St., Southampton, 283-1233; santambroeus.com). Technically not pasta, Arborio rice is cooked with the slow addition of fish stock enriched with white wine and shallots. Calamari, clams, king crab meat, scallops, mussels, and shrimp are added at the end, along with a vibrant drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Housemade pastas are prepared daily and include ravioli di spinaci e ricotta, filled with fresh spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, and fresh herbs, and a simple sage and brown butter sauce is a delicious reminder that fall is around the corner. It is said that a restaurant’s gnocchi is the barometer by which all other pasta dishes can be measured. Light-as-air dumplings are the result of expertise in the kitchen, and Nick & Toni’s (136 N. Main St., East Hampton, 324-3550; nickandtonis.com) has it mastered. “There is no potato in them, and we use only enough flour to hold them together,” says Chef de Cuisine John Baron. The delicate dumplings forgo a heavy sauce and, instead, are
combined with diced prosciutto, locally sourced broccoli rabe, butter, and a generous sprinkle of Gorgonzola cheese, which melts into the dish. Doppio (126 Main St., Sag Harbor, 808-3444; doppiorestaurants.com) brings the flavors of southern Italy to Sag Harbor under the watchful eye of Executive Chef Louis Barresi. Capellini with cockles, leeks, lemon, and white wine captures the simple flavors of the sea while the dramatic presentation of squid ink tagliolini with Portuguese octopus, saffron, and uni cream (sea urchin) is a bolder take. Both dishes feature Calabrian chiles, which originate from Italy’s “boot” and pack a wallop of balanced heat, smokiness, and fruity notes without overpowering the pasta. Executive Chef Pietro Bottero from The Patio at 54 Main (54 Main St., Westhampton Beach, 288-0100; thepatiowhb.com) incorporates culinary influences from throughout Italy, years working at Mario Batali’s Babbo, as well as his first-generation Italian-American father. The home-style cacao é pepe is a traditional Tuscan-style dish—a simple combination of pecorino cheese, black pepper, and rigatoni pasta. Bottero elevates it based on an experience he had in Rome with the addition of black truffle purée. The restaurant’s unofficial signature dish is the house-made pappardelle with braised steak ragu and parmigiana sauce. Slowly braised skirt steak, which simmers away with red wine and aromatic vegetables until stewlike, clings to the wide noodles. “For me, it’s all about fresh pasta,” says Bottero. “Lots of people don’t take the time to make it by hand.

dd layers of melted mozzarella, sweet Italian sauce, olive oil, and basil to chicken, eggplant, meatballs, or polenta, and you have “parmapalooza.” I don’t know who invented the Parmigiana idea, but both the Northern and Southern Italians claim it as theirs. Some historians insist the dish originates in Parma in Northern Italy, because either Parmigiana refers to the city of Parma or because the Parmigiana cheese is from Parma. Wherever it comes from,

one thing is for sure, it is a crowd pleaser! We grew up with making chicken or veal Parmigiana. It was a quick recipe. My mom, Marion, always says, “I can make it with my eyes closed.” When we opened the Fresco by Scotto restaurant, Mom and my siblings, Anthony and Elaina, and I discussed if we should include it on our menu. After much soul searching, several bottles of wine, and lots of cheesy dishes, we decided it wasn’t glamorous enough for our menu.
However, we continued to make it in our home in Southampton for our friends. They gobbled it up. Diets went out the window and some even asked for seconds. My kids begged Grandma to make “chicken pajamas.” Even though they couldn’t pronounce it properly, Grandma knew exactly what would make them happy. Then, Parmigiana went mainstream. And we had a “come to Parmigiana moment.” Anthony continued on page 142

Bring on the breadcrumbs and olive oil.” Now we have embraced Parmigiana with all our hearts and soul; Friday and Saturday nights, we serve it at Fresco by Scotto in Manhattan. And while we are sharing our delicious recipes with you, if you don’t feel like making it yourself, our Fresco on the Go can cater it for you. In fact, Elaina caters backstage at some musical venues and was astounded by how “the boys from One Direction devoured it.” Even Sir Paul McCartney and his wife, Nancy, who are famous vegetarians, fell head over heels in love with our eggplant Parmigiana—it is like a lasagna. Even carnivores crave this dish because it is so hearty. We have to credit Kathie Lee Gifford, who encouraged us to put zucchini in it. She was right. It added more flavor and texture to this decadent dish. Parmigiana is the ultimate comfort food. You can have it as an appetizer, entree or even sandwiched in between crusty Italian bread. Experiment with it. Try it on eggs for breakfast. The possibilities are endless. From our family to yours—enjoy. For more recipes from Fresco by Scotto Restaurant, visit hamptons-magazine.com. H

Eggplant and Zucchini Parmigiana Recipe courtesy of Fresco by Scotto restaurant SERVES 6 2 eggplants and 4 zucchini, peeled 4 cups all-purpose flour 10 eggs 4 cups seasoned Italian breadcrumbs 1 ½ cups grated Parmigiana ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley Salt and pepper 2 quarts extra-virgin olive oil 5 cups tomato sauce Cheese mixture (see recipe online) Slice eggplants and zucchini into ¼-inch-thick slices. Soak eggplant in lightly salted water for 1 ½ to 2 hours. Place flour in a shallow bowl. In a second bowl, beat eggs. In a third bowl, mix breadcrumbs, cheese,
parsley, salt, and pepper. One at a time, dip eggplant and zucchini slices into flour, then into egg mixture, and finally into breadcrumbs. Coat both sides very well and gently tap off any excess coating. Season with salt and pepper. In a large, heavy skillet over medium flame, heat the olive oil. Add the zucchini and eggplant and sauté on both sides until golden brown (about 3 minutes). Place the cooked eggplant and zucchini on paper towels to drain excess oil. Preheat the oven to 350°. In a large 9-by-13-inch baking pan, add 1 cup of tomato sauce, a layer of ¼ of the eggplant and zucchini, and top with a layer of ¼ of the cheese mixture. Repeat the process three more times. Top with a layer of tomato sauce, and sprinkle with ½ cup of Parmigiana cheese. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with tomato basil sauce and grated Parmigiana cheese.

Social Butterflies Jennifer Creel and Chris Mack designed a new unisex line of slippers that are well suited to the hamptons set. by adrienne gaffney
“O
photography by Megan mack
ur whole concept is buying into a jet-set lifestyle with really cool accessories that are not going to be expensive,” explains designer Chris Mack of the accessories line she created with designer and actress Jennifer Creel. Featuring jewelry, shawls, and jodhpurs, Creel-Mack has now expanded into the footwear market with a collection of classically timeless slippers handmade in England and sold out East at Concept in Southampton. For the pair, it was necessity that inspired the designs. “We’re very tall, and it’s hard to find good flats. I’ve always loved velvet slippers and so has Jennifer, so we wanted to create them for ourselves,” Mack says. “You can dress them up or dress them down, but no matter how you wear them, you always look chic.” As Mack explains, the shoes fit into a style that’s as much a way of life as an aesthetic choice. “We love the unisex look. You can feel very elegant, sexy, and feminine in jeans, a white shirt, and the slippers, which are actually unisex,” she says. “It’s a lifestyle look.” Offered in men’s and women’s sizes and in seasonal fabrics (velvet for
the cooler months and Ultrasuede for spring and summer), the flats feature either an embroidered butterfly or a Maltese cross, two symbols with deep significance to the designers. Creel grew up admiring a Maltese medallion her grandmother wore on a chain around her neck, but eventually realized that, given the size of her family, her chances of inheriting the piece were slim. “I wanted to be able to have it, so I decided to make my own,” she explains. Mack, a trained graphic designer who has worked with Nicole Miller and Calypso, fashioned the cross into a logo for the company, and it seemed a fitting icon to feature on the shoes. “It’s for everybody, it’s a fun symbol, and it’s pretty,” Creel says. Mack sees the butterfly-slipper option as being particularly well suited to the Hamptons. “For us, it resembles the lifestyle here. You’re in and out everywhere,” she says. “It’s a casual, chic look for the Hamptons in general, where you never feel like you have to dress up to be formal.” Concept, 42A Jobs Lane, Southampton, 204-5966; conceptsouthampton.com; creel-mack.com H

Back-to- M School Beauty About to embark on her college career, The Carrie Diaries star AnnaSophia Robb talks to Dior Beauty’s Dianne Vavra about acting, beauty, and summer fun.
152 hamptons-magazine.com
y dear friend AnnaSophia Robb’s sunny charm has made her a box-office draw since the tender age of 12. The petite stunner’s roles have ranged from an alienated teen experiencing romance for the first time in The Way Way Back to the very bossy Violet Beauregarde in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and a young Carrie Bradshaw in The CW’s Sex and the City prequel, The Carrie Diaries. This month, the 20-year-old star will take on a very different role: that of college freshman, beginning her first term at New York University. AnnaSophia and I met two years ago, when she attended a New York party that I hosted for Natalie Portman. At the time she was filming The Carrie Diaries, and I was so taken by her beautiful face for makeup that I immediately sent her some Dior products. She’s been a loyal fan and a true
friend ever since. In a recent catch-up session, we talked about her role in the upcoming film Jack of the Red Hearts, her beloved new pet, and her love of the Hamptons. We recently spent a fun day together with your new puppy, Sir Fergusson, who is adorable—and quite photogenic! Ferg loves to get his picture taken. He loves attention. My boyfriend and I named him after one of our mentors. I added the “sir” for a laugh. We both love dogs. We also thought that Fergusson would help us with time management, patience, and that he’d force us outside in the winter even when it is freezing. Recently in Colorado, I took him swimming in a couple of creeks. He loved it! continued on page 154

“ For fall, it’s all about the layers [and] investing in a quality leather jacket that fits.” —annasophia robb powder that brightens me up. And I love Dior Addict Lip Glow because it feels like a balm and provides just a hint of color. For hair, I don’t do much. Mostly, I put my hair in a topknot while it is damp and wrap a scrunchie around it so I don’t have an awkward bend. It’s starting to look a bit like fall. What are your must-have wardrobe items as the seasons change? What did you learn about fashion while playing Carrie Bradshaw? Flannels and scarves are my must-haves for fall, along with fun, cozy socks. It’s all about the layers, right? Also, you can’t go wrong investing in a quality leather jacket that fits. It’ll last forever. After all my fittings on The Carrie Diaries, I realized that for any item of clothing to look really sharp, it has to be tailored just right. If you don’t have expensive clothes but they fit your body perfectly, your outfit can still look like a million bucks. H

continued from page 152 Fall is just around the corner, and you’ll be starting at NYU. What will be the focus of your studies? I plan to study literature, religion, art history, theater, you name it—mostly liberal arts classes. Your apartment has a water view, but are you a beach girl? I do love the beach. I love most bodies of water because I love to swim. The water calms me; it is so tranquil. This is one of the reasons I love the Hamptons so much. Did you have a chance to get out to the Hamptons this summer? What are places out East that are on your must-visit list? I’ve been working nonstop all summer, and I haven’t had much downtime. But I love to chill on Shelter Island and spend time in Montauk. I had to learn to surf for a film I did called Soul Surfer, and I hear Montauk has some decent waves and isn’t too crowded. You just finished filming Jack of the Red Hearts with Famke Janssen in New York. What was that experience like? Jack of the Red Hearts is a beautiful story about a dysfunctional family and the unexpected role a young woman plays in the healing of her family. It centers on the young daughter, who is severely autistic, and my character is a con artist, who acts as her companion. It is sweet and also enlightening about the struggles of autism and how it affects a family. You’ve been working since a very young age. My kids and I have watched you over and over in Bridge to Terabithia, Because of Winn-Dixie, and Soul Surfer. What is one of your fondest memories from filming? Oh, that’s tough. I’ve had so many great memories. One day on Bridge to Terabithia we filmed in a very remote location in New Zealand. I was 12 at the time and could only work nine hours on set, so to make my turnaround they helicoptered me, my parents, my costar Josh Hutcherson, and his mother back home. We had the most spectacular view of the New Zealand countryside. You have such a fresh and original summer look. When it comes to beauty, what are your favorite products and your best tips? Dior is my favorite beauty brand, and I especially love DiorShow iconic mascara. Also, Rosy Glow is the best; it looks really pink, but when you put it on, it turns to this luminous, light-reflecting

The Greatest Gift C&W Mercantile anchors Bridgehampton with a shop of treasures curated for children and interiors. by carrie doyle Photography by eric striffleR
“I
never get tired of being here— ever. It’s always fun. There is never a day when I don’t want to go to work!” enthuses Barbara Dutton, the owner of C&W Mercantile in Bridgehampton. When you meet Dutton, you understand why C&W Mercantile has been a fixture in Bridgehampton for more than 30 years. The friendly Texas-bred blonde is gracious and warm and has impeccable taste. At her stunning store, which sells everything from gorgeous linens to elegant housewares to adorable children’s clothing, there is something for everyone. “People do need gifts all the time,” explains Dutton. “So we’re open every single day of the year, except Christmas and Thanksgiving. I think being open all week long is important if you want to be part of the community. And yes, in the winter it is very quiet. But we do business every day. Usually the people who come in during the dead of winter say, ‘I’m so happy you’re open.’ That makes us feel good.” continued on page 158

Barbara Dutton purchased her favorite store in the Hamptons, C&W Mercantile, and now she sells gifts, housewares, and classic toys from Schylling and soft stuffed toys from Jellycat and Blabla (below).
“ People do need gifts all the time. So we’re open every single day of the year.” —Barbara Dutton back office to showcase her bed linens and tableware. Best-selling brands include Yves Delorme, Haute Home, and Taylor Linens for the bed; Kissy Kissy, Siamomi, Pink Chicken, and Mimi and Maggie for children’s clothing; and Mariposa, Arte Italica, and Vietri for tableware and candles. “I like lines that are designed by individuals. I like that I can picture the person behind the brand,” she explains. “We sell lots of gifts: housewarming, hostess, wedding, and baby. I want them all to be special.” In addition to her local customer base, there are also a fair number of celebrities who shop at C&W. Last summer, one very famous (unnamed) A-lister arrived on a Monday and asked for some duvets. Dutton said she could order them, and the celebrity said she would check someplace else. Two hours later, she returned, having come up empty-handed, and proceeded to order duvets, down comforters, pillows, and two sets of sheets for six bedrooms. She needed them all by Friday. Dutton and her team sourced them from all over the country and had everything delivered and in place by Friday afternoon. The celebrity was most grateful and sent a gushing thank-you letter. It’s that touch of personal service that C&W Mercantile is known for. “I hate to see Bridgehampton not feel like a village anymore,” laments Dutton. “But over here, the Candy Kitchen is my kitchen and people come back and forth between the businesses. Waves, another local business, is a few doors down. We have our little local corner.” 2385 Montauk Hwy., Bridgehampton, 537-7914 H

continued from page 156 Founded in 1983 by a pair of owners whose last names began with C and W, the store was Dutton’s favorite place to shop on weekend visits to Bridgehampton. Originally working as an artist in NYC, Dutton was on her way back to her Lower East Side studio one Monday morning in May when she had a change of heart. “I thought, why am I going back to the city when it’s so beautiful out here. Within two weeks, I had sold my loft and moved out here,” Dutton recalls. Her goal was to paint full-time, but the cost of living demanded a job, so she worked in retail. She ultimately settled in Sag Harbor and then met and married her husband and started a family (although later moved to Water Mill to raise them). And when she heard her favorite store in the Hamptons was for sale, she jumped at the chance to purchase it. Dutton has expanded the business over the years, co-opting the neighboring real estate business to house her children’s clothing, and taking over a

FOR ARTIST STEPHANIE HIRSCH, SUNNY HAMPTONS DAYS INSPIRE MASTERPIECES.
S
tephanie Hirsch’s bold, message-driven works are as spirited as the artist herself. Utilizing a mix of graphics, embroidery, and beading, her thought-provoking canvases display sayings—both significant and cheeky—that convey a sense of depth. When the Bridgehampton local isn’t toiling away in her studio, she finds inspiration while surfing the neighborhood beaches and appreciating the natural beauty of the East End. For long days in the sunshine, Hirsch stocks her beach bag with these local favorites. H

Hometown Favorites W
hen design is both your occupation and your passion, it permeates every conceivable arena of life, from fashion to food. This is the plight of Steven Gambrel, a trained architect and interior designer, who has brought his elegant and thoughtful style to high-end homes around the globe. With his company, S.R. Gambrel Inc., he’s created a custom lighting line with Urban Electric Company, designed a line of custom accessories with the Lacquer Company, and launched Dering Hall (deringhall.com), a website featuring home furnishings and accessories designed by the industry’s top talents. This year (as well as in 2012), he was included on Architectural Digest’s “AD100” list of top talents in architecture and interior design. On summer days, Gambrel finds himself seeking out shops that emphasize the same values as his designs: a unique vision and a story to tell. Here are his best bets: The Hamptons are a wonderland of potential design inspirations for Gambrel. How does his own Sag Harbor home take inspiration from the region? “Well, entirely,” he
166 hamptons-magazine.com
explains. “Sandy, watery colors, driftwood textures, and nubby textiles.” One of his most treasured pieces is a custom lantern that he commissioned from Battle Iron & Bronze (112 Maple Lane, Bridgehampton, 537-2193), while Bloom (43 Madison St., Sag Harbor, 7255940) and MONC XIII (40 Madison St., Sag Harbor, 808-3333; monc13.com) are favorite stops for inspired home accessories. Gambrel stresses his love of the candles from MONC XIII. Other recommendations of his are for off-the-beaten path spots like Stellar Union (25 N. Sea Road, Southampton, 204-0315; stellarunion.com) and Croft Antiques (11 S. Main St., Southampton, 283-6445). When it comes to shopping for fashion, there’s nowhere for Gambrel but Brunello Cucinelli (39 Newtown Lane, East Hampton, 324-3400;
When shopping out East, Gambrel relishes the opportunity to seek out hidden gems.
brunellocucinelli.com), whose luxurious, Italian classics are a completely organic fit for Hamptons days. When outfitting himself for afternoons on the beach, Gambrel hits James Perse (56 Newtown Lane, East Hampton, 907-9270; james perse.com) for its top of the line swim trunks. But for Gambrel, shopping out East is not simply about the act of acquisition. Rather, he relishes the opportunity to seek out new hidden gems and to frequent the small shops that he’s loved and remained loyal to for years. “My nieces love Blooming Shells (11 Washington St., Sag Harbor, 725-9504; bloomingshells.com),” he says, and he often finds himself steering his friends toward the seashell emporium. He places his regular haunts like Ruby Beets (25 Washington St., Sag Harbor, 899-3275; ruby beets.com), R.E. Steele Antiques (74 Montauk Hwy., East Hampton, 324-7812), and Cavaniola’s Gourmet (89 Division St., Sag Harbor, 7250095; cavaniola.com) in a similar category: independent shops emphasizing fine design, handcraftsmanship, and fostering community.

nspiration—the single factor that grips a designer’s thoughts and sparks startling creativity—reveals itself in many modes. Contemporary watchmakers are looking to brand archives for artistic impressions that influence the designs of modern timepieces.

The unmistakable appearance of the new Montblanc Homage to Nicolas Rieussec Limited Edition ($11,500), named for the watchmaker who patented the chronograph in 1821, combines an off-center hour circle in the upper portion, and the chronograph’s elapsed-time displays in the lower portion of the dial features two enameled discs (one for 60 elapsed seconds at 8 o’clock, and a second for 30 elapsed minutes at 4 o’clock). Roosevelt Field, 630 Old Country Road, Garden City, 516-248-4810; montblanc.com Inspired by the record-breaking ultrathin watches of the 1950s, Piaget returned to the drawing board and took three years to build this revolutionary Altiplano 38mm 900P ($27,800). Made of 38mm white gold, it’s the thinnest mechanical watch—the movement parts are actually merged with the case in a record-breakingly 3.65mm slim design. London Jewelers, Americana Manhasset, 2060 Northern Blvd., 516-627-7475; piaget.com On its 175th anniversary, Patek Philippe recalls its illustrious past with new renditions of iconic timepieces. The first Calatrava was created in 1932 and showcased sleek lines and a hobnail bezel. The new Calatrava Ref. 5116R ($28,100) features the original bezel pattern and is crafted in 18k rose gold with an authentic enamel dial. It houses a mechanical manually wound movement.

Beauty At his workshop in the South of France, Jean-Claude Ellena was inspired by the leather used to make classic bags like the Hermès Oxer duffel (far right) to create his Cuir d’Ange fragrance (right).
“ I realized that each leather had a different scent, and the most beautiful smelled of flowers.” —JEAN-CLAUDE ELLENA
A stunning new fragrance from Hermès takes its inspiration from iconic leather handbags—and sensual French literature. by mandi norwood
W
hen Jean-Claude Ellena became “the nose” of Hermès 10 years ago, his first port of call was the maison’s leather vault in Paris. Providing specialized storage for the skins that form the brand’s iconic luggage and handbags, “It was a marvelous treasure,” Ellena recalls, “an Ali Baba’s cave, where each piece of leather was arranged by characteristic and color. “There I saw and touched the most beautiful leather, even some that weighed only a few grams in my hand, so soft that I hardly dared to touch it,” he says. “I realized that each leather, tanned naturally, had a different scent, and the most beautiful and expensive pieces smelled of flowers…. I was seized by happiness and decided right then that I wanted to create a perfume inspired by leather.” This month, 67-year-old Ellena’s dream is realized in the form of Cuir

Tell us more about the connection you make between literature and fragrance. I am a writer of smells. For me, perfume is more a poetic creation than a concept. It touches us, moves us, fires our imagination. I have a writer’s approach. I tell stories with perfume. Perfumers all use the same ingredients and raw materials. It’s their writing talent that makes the difference. Why are you inspired by the author Jean Giono? I see literature—with a capital L—as significant. It has always fueled my imagination, but it’s true I have a special relationship with Jean Giono, which must derive from our Provençal origins and how we understand the world. Why did it take 10 years to create Cuir d’Ange? It’s a slow process—and very demanding. The hardest thing is [figuring out] how I am going to translate the concept into a physical presence. Until the moment comes that the product matches the idea in my head, I put it aside; I continued on page 172

Eau, My Word!
d’Ange (angel leather), a fragrance that’s both gentle and assertive, shifting between delicate heliotropes and woody hawthorn, bashful violets and narcissi, and unrestrained musk. As with all fragrances, there are layers of notes: the top notes that provide the first fragrant impression, the middle ones that form the heart of the scent seconds after application, and the base notes that linger long after the perfume has dried on the skin. With Cuir d’Ange, the first spray bursts into a generous—but not overly floral—bouquet that’s just sweet enough for a woman and yet robust enough for a man. Minutes later, it settles into a gorgeous veil of caramel, pipe tobacco, and a sprinkling of breezy wildflowers. It feels beautiful on the skin, too—like cool, expensive, powder-soft suede.... “Angel leather,” asserts Ellena, referencing the words of early-20th-century French author Jean Giono, who has been a source of inspiration for Ellena for more than three decades. In his autobiography, Jean le Blue (Blue Boy), Giono describes his father in his cobbler’s workshop, “busy making shoes in angel leather for some god with a thousand feet.” For Ellena, who compares his process of creating fragrances to that of writing a book, Giono’s phrase “angel leather,” combined with his own epiphany at the Hermès vault, provided the compelling concept Ellena needed for his next fragrance masterpiece.

Jean-Claude Ellena uses the simplest tools—pen, paper, smelling strips (left)—and his finely tuned nose to create fragrances for Hermès.
continued from page 170 come back to it later, I work on it. That’s why it can take 10 years. Cuir d’Ange is appealing for both women and men. How did you accomplish that? I don’t think smells have a gender any more than colors, sounds, or tastes do. Unfortunately, societies have created codes that we find difficult to break from. These codes are a framework that helps us live in an increasingly complex world, but one from which we sometimes want to be free. For me, perfumes are like works of art and, as such, aren’t intended for men or women, but for all mankind. In your book, The Diary of a Nose: A Year in the Life of a Parfumeur (Rizzoli, $25), you say there is a misconception that your perfumes only contain natural ingredients, nothing artificial. I see all ingredients as smells, whether they’re natural or artificial. I love them all. I don’t differentiate between them, so long as they serve my idea. The advent of chemical ingredients has given us a much broader olfactory palette. How lucky we are! What are your own personal favorite scents? The smell of human skin without perfume—my wife’s and my children’s. Tell us about your studio. Why did you choose to have it in Grasse? I live and work in the South of France near Grasse, the perfume capital. I was born there. It’s an incredible space, steeped in history, filled with light and smells. The workshop I come to every morning is a house designed in the ’60s and built into the side of a hill. The workshop is
172 hamptons-magazine.com
open; the doors are never closed. My work tools are sheets of paper, a pencil, a fountain pen, an eraser, smelling strips, and rotating smellingstrip holders. The laboratory is at the far end of the house, as far as possible from my office, so that I’m not distracted by the smell. I work exclusively from memory. You have created many iconic fragrances, including Van Cleef & Arpels’s First and Bulgari’s Eau Parfumée au Thé Vert. Do you consider Cuir d’Ange to be a new classic? I sincerely hope so—to have a perfume that stands outside of time, a perfume beyond fashions and trends. What’s the difference between French and American tastes in fragrance? For Americans, the notion of cleanliness dominates. Pleasure is allowed if it’s useful—for example, smelling clean and having good longevity—whereas French-style perfuming likes a bit of controversy and the body’s own smells. How did you finally realize your vision for Cuir d’Ange? Was it a “voilà!” moment? Suddenly, an instant will come when you say, “That’s it! That’s what I was looking for.” Creating a fragrance is a terrible and terrifying process because I’m the kind of person who is continually dissatisfied until that moment comes. And then the pleasure is very short. Like sex—Frenchstyle! Cuir d’Ange is number 12 in Hermès’s Hermessence collection of perfumes and is available exclusively in Hermès stores.

“We Still Do Business The Old Fashioned Way.” – Charlie Marder There was a time, remember, when you called and a real person answered the telephone. They showed up when they said they would and did the work on time (without you feeling you had to keep looking over their shoulder). And, the work was done for the promised price…no surprises when you got the final bill. Over the past 39 years, we have built an organization and a way of thinking that, first of all, assures that a real person will answer the telephone during business hours seven days a week. We have Marders-trained crews that enable us to guarantee your job will be done on time and within the budget. For example, our crews never leave your property while there is work to do…they will not be pulled off to work on some other job that has fallen behind schedule. We will be there when we said we would, do the job on time and within budget…guaranteed.

FORE midable Former NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani and Hall of Fame golfer Raymond Floyd discuss the game, the upcoming Ryder Cup, and how the links on the East End rival the best in the world.

T
he words “resolute,” “steadfast,” and “determined,” hardly do justice to describe Hall of Fame golfer Raymond Floyd and former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani individually. Put them together, and there aren’t enough adjectives to capture their iconic yet vastly different professional accomplishments. Floyd’s PGA career spanned five decades with 22 wins including four Major Championships. Giuliani tackled New York City crime and ultimately united a nation in the aftermath of September 11. Both men are formidable: Floyd known for his icy, blue-eyed stare as he fiercely battled competitors on the golf course, and Giuliani’s will compelled the city to regain its strength following our darkest moment in history. And yet the game of golf is common turf for the two men. Both will venture to Gleneagles in Scotland for the 2014 Ryder Cup, September 23-28. Floyd, 72, who retired from playing professionally in 2010, was appointed vice captain of the 2014 US Ryder Cup team by Captain Tom Watson; and Giuliani, chairman and CEO of Giuliani Partners LLC, will attend as strategic advisor to the PGA of America, a role that allows him to combine his passion for golf with the mission and work of the PGA. Both have homes out East and enjoy the many fine courses here, and both men credit the women in their lives for success and enjoyment of the game.

“The best tournament golf course in the world is Shinnecock. I don’t think any world-class player takes Shinnecock out of their top three.”—raymond floyd ANN LIGUORI: Raymond, you’ve done so much in the Ryder Cup world. You’ve played on eight Ryder Cup teams, captained the 1989 US team, and in 1993, you returned as a player at the age of 51, earning three points for the US. Raymond floyd: It’s such a difficult team to make. This year, you have nine players make the team off of sheer merit, and we get three captain’s picks. It’s a unique format that happens every other year, and everybody is trying to make this team. It’s so special to represent your country. It’s the ultimate! And it brings guys together; there are relationships and bonds and camaraderie that are melded at Ryder Cup that bonds friendships forever. We’re individual performers. We don’t affect anyone by what we shoot. But you go into Ryder Cup, and you’re playing not only with 11 other players, but you’ve got your country on your shoulders. That’s huge! It’s every player’s goal to make Ryder Cup teams. Tiger Woods called US Ryder Cup Captain Tom Watson to tell him not to consider him for one of the three captain’s picks due to his ailing back. It must have been a relief that Tiger initiated that call. RF: Yes, we had expected that. You definitely want a “healthy” Tiger on the team. You’ve got to be able to play 36 holes for two straight days. As Watson has said, Tiger will be honest; he knows we are playing for our country, and if he’s not healthy, he will say he’s not healthy like he did in 2008. [Tiger did not play in the 2008 Ryder Cup Competition at Valhalla due to a knee injury.] How did you react when Tom Watson asked you to be a vice captain for this upcoming Ryder Cup? RF: When Tom called me to ask me, it floored me. I was not prepared! Of course, I said yes, and here I am in the middle of it. You are only one of two players to win PGA Tour events in four different decades. With 22 PGA Tour wins, four Majors, all these Ryder Cups, what do you think has been the key to your longevity? RF: I had great support. Maria, my wife, was very special. She supported my golf. She was my partner. Looking back on your career and all of your accolades, would you say your Masters win was the best golf you ever played? RF: I have two Majors that really stand out: [In 1976] I won the Masters by 8 strokes so I played very, very well, and the PGA Championship in Tulsa [in 1982], where I shot 63 in the opening round and won by three strokes. To overwhelm the field was very special. Rudy, when you were mayor of New York City, you helped lower the crime rate and had to be so tough handling so many issues. How does that “tough” personality translate to golf, where being mellow and relaxed is really the key. RUDY GIULIANI: Yes, crime was down 58 percent and murder was down 65 percent [when I was mayor]. It wasn’t just toughness [that did it], it was strategy, and golf has a lot of strategy.
190 hamptons-magazine.com
What do you bring from your career to the game of golf? RG: Golf helps me in so many ways. First of all, it’s my relaxation. [My wife] Judith and I play a lot for that reason. Sometimes you can’t get everything off your mind; it intrudes in to your game. Most of the time, you can get all of the things you’re pondering, the decisions you’re making off your mind. You can just concentrate on hitting that ball, making a good score, winning a bet, just having fun. Sometimes just looking at the beautiful scenery puts everything in perspective. Tell us about Giuliani Partners being a strategic advisor for the PGA of America and your suggestions to the association about growing the game. RG: We have to make it simpler and easier. Let’s shorten the course and make playing 12 holes instead of 18 holes the norm. I’ve played tennis for 20 years, and I’ve never played five sets like the pros do; I’ll play three sets with my pals. So why play 18 holes [in golf]? That’s what pros do to win tournaments. Raymond, what do you like about spending time in the Hamptons? RF: We came in 1986 when I won the US Open at Shinnecock, and we fell in love with it. We came back in ’95, and decided we’d summer out here, so we bought the land and built the house. And the East End is really golf paradise in the US. RF: Oh absolutely! You can name courses that people don’t think about like Westhampton Country Club or Southampton Golf Club, both designed by Seth Raynor. Everyone knows Shinnecock and National, but think about Atlantic, Friar’s Head, Sebonack, and Maidstone. You’ve got such special golf out here. And the weather’s so good. The summer out East is a micro-climate. It’s 90 degrees in the city, and it will be 81 or 82 out here. It’s very special in the summertime. If you could pick a favorite course, what would it be? RF: The best tournament golf course in the world is Shinnecock. I don’t think any world-class player takes Shinnecock out of their top three. Rudy, I hear that Raymond was ribbing you that Judith is a better golfer than you. RG: I’m not in the least bit upset about that! She is two strokes better quite legitimately. I take great credit for this because I’m her teacher. I learned golf when I was about 57; baseball was my sport. I had to unlearn a lot of things from my baseball swing. I got all these books and videos, and I’d make little drawings and little lessons. Raymond, how’s your game these days? RF: I’m carrying a two or three handicap. I don’t even know what it is. I turn in all my scores. When I start playing more than I have, I can get down to a scratch. The thing that I’ve done for a lot of years is be able to shoot my age. In fact, last year on my birthday I shot 70 at Shinnecock on my 71st, so when I turn 72 in September, my goal will be to try to shoot my age again. H
score card Raymond Floyd has an impact on the links and beyond. on the record: With his round
of 62 in 1997, Floyd holds the course record at National Golf Links of America. He also held the course record at Shinnecock Hills for 17 years, until Adam Scott broke it in 2013.
MAJOR feat: Floyd won a PGA Tour event in four different decades (1960s-1990s), joining Sam Snead as the only player to accomplish this feat. Cause closest to his heart:
In honor of his wife, Maria, who died of bladder cancer, Floyd and his daughter, Christina Floyd Di Donna, work with Pin Down Bladder Cancer. The charity’s proceeds benefit Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center’s bladder cancer Translational Science Program. Floyd also gifted $1 million to the MD Anderson Cancer Center. pindownbladdercancer.org
At the US Open at Shinnecock Hills in 1986, Raymond Floyd celebrates putting the winner.

Step inside
the classic shingle-style Sagaponack home that Karen Silverman shares with her husband, two young children, and five dogs, and chances are the first thing you’ll feel is an instant sense of serenity. “I like Zen-like, peaceful, clean spaces without a lot of tchotchkes,” says Silverman, who collaborated with New York-based interior designer Richard Mishaan to curate many of the home’s meticulously edited spaces. “ ‘Less is more’ has always been my philosophy.” Inside, you’re also likely to feel immediately comfortable, as the graciously proportioned rooms are furnished with a mix of easy-on-the-eye antiques and plush classic modern furnishings that seamlessly relate to the overall environs. “I also believe a home should feel like a home,” she adds. The Hamptons abode is the family’s second home, a respite away from their primary residence in Manhattan, where Silverman’s husband works in finance. The Sagaponack house was always intended as a family retreat—where all could enjoy some quality time apart from the hustle and bustle of the city, so a calm and welcoming family-friendly ambiance was one of the couple’s top objectives from the outset. Yet, on closer inspection, there’s also layer upon layer of subtle luxury, which elevates both the form and function of the home. “It’s like Italian menswear or an Hermès bag,” says Mishaan. “When you first see it, you recognize the quality, but you’re not assaulted by luxury and details. Instead, the more you look, the more they come to life.” The home’s character and substance as well as its flow weren’t always there from the start, however. Mishaan stepped in where previous designers had left off—keeping some pieces, but reworking them, starting fresh with new ones, and then reconfiguring the furniture layouts to genuinely support the way the family really lives. In the over-scale living room, for instance, a clutch of diverse seating groups now offer up gathering areas that serve different purposes on different occasions, while open circulation paths pull the large space together as a harmonious ensemble. “The original layout just didn’t work,” recalls Mishaan, adding that although he added several new pieces, the altered arrangement enables the many furnishings to aesthetically cohere as a whole. The two sofas in the room were placed back to back so that when people were gathered there, they felt they were either on one side of the room or the other. “Instead, I

broke up the furniture plan into conversation zones where people could interact comfortably, focus on one another, and feel a sense of warmth,” he explains. “I also added some new furnishings, so that now you can have four or five people gathered together to talk next to the fireplace, or you could pull up a couple stools and include a few more. You could also comfortably fill the room with eight, 10, or 14 people when there’s a larger party. Even the two high-back wing chairs are great for more intimate conversations with a business associate on a different occasion.”
T
he home’s subtle yet rich palette also contributes to the holistic sense of continuity. “It’s funny, in my mind, the palette is like a Japanese kimono or a Morandi painting, with lots of very complex, very subtle neutrals,” says Mishaan. Although colors are limited—mostly to brown, aubergine, and white—they’re present in an almost infinite array of shades and textures, which reflect or absorb light and inject the rooms with grace notes of nuance. The furnishings in the elegant yet cozy family room offer a case in point. Here, a huddle of ivory satin pillows shimmer against plush plum velvet cushions set atop the nubby espresso cotton-linen blend base of the amply scaled sectional. Two crisp white linen club chairs and a big white leather ottoman round out the furniture mix, which is accented with gourd urns—one 1960s French, the other vintage Japanese—plus a tabletop wishbone sculpture by Chuck Price and a 1950s fern plate by Guido Gambone, a contemporary of Gio Ponti. Working closely with the owners, Mishaan deftly mixed existing pieces with new ones to reshape and enhance the form and function of other rooms, too. In the kitchen, he introduced new wood counters and stained them to match the floors to bring in more warmth. “Stone counters in a home with children feel too cold,” he says. In the dining room, a pair of antique Chinese temple chairs were moved from the entry to add touches of “whimsical fun,” says the designer, while older dining chairs were “reinvented” with trim pleated slipcovers, and new aqua-colored plates and lavender vases introduce fresh notes of color. Bedrooms were also updated with a sense of tailored timelessness. In the son’s room, blue, purple, and white striped fabrics on pillows and ottomans bring youthful energy to new white classic furnishings that will grow as the boy matures. To brighten the tonal composition in the master bedroom, Mishaan also had the headboard and a Deco-inspired duo of swivel chairs reupholstered, and he brought in fresh energy with a lively mix of framed photographs. “The real-life scenes and mundane cityscapes offer a great juxtaposition to such an elegant room,” notes the designer. In fact, throughout the restrained and tailored home, a few bold photographs enliven the atmosphere with zesty punches of personality—some are vintage black-and-white images, others are colorful and sometimes kitschy. “We are big collectors of art,” says Silverman, “but in this house we’ve only included photographs.” Seen through divided-light windows, flowers from the gardens (which Silverman’s husband developed with landscape architect Edmund Hollander) bring additional pops of color into the rooms. Yet, outside, too, the palette is restrained with blooms in shades of mostly lavender and white that meld seamlessly with the hues inside. “It’s elegant and luxurious, and at the same time user-friendly,” says Mishaan, summing up the overall design. “And unlike many family homes, which have a lot of accessories and trinkets, here it’s the opposite. The family has a very restrained way of living, so that everything they have is in use.” Less, in this beautiful and comfortable home, is indeed more. H
Designer Richard Mishaan used a palette of brown, white, and aubergine, colors he calls “complex, subtle neutrals.”

Having lived through 9/11, I think people will be very interested to know that poaching has direct links to terrorism and Al Qaeda in North Africa. There’s irrefutable evidence that Al Qaeda in North Africa, the Lord’s Resistance Army in Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and the Janjaweed from Sudan who are coming into Uganda and the DRC are all engaged in poaching, because ivory is an easily accessible commodity to them. It’s become a lubricant that continually greases the wheels for the shipment of drugs, guns, and people. I don’t think many people realize the brutality involved when elephants are killed for ivory. One misconception is that taking off the tusk is like extracting a tooth. Elephants cannot live without their tusks; they are absolutely crucial to their survival. What happens with the ivory after the elephants are killed? Is there a black market? The tusks are removed and then trekked out to a port. In East Africa, a lot of ivory flows out of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania, and Mombasa, and [other parts] up and down the Kenya coast, and it largely goes to Asia. China, by far, is the biggest market; Vietnam and Thailand are also significant markets. The vast majority [of ivory] is transported in tusk form. When it gets to China, the tusks are then cut down and made into commodities and luxury goods— whether it be ivory Buddhas, chopsticks, hair clips, or the handles of a luxury handbag. Why the high demand for ivory in Asia? In China, historically, ivory has been synonymous with ascension into the middle class and prosperity. One of the challenges along the continuum with trying to stop the demand is to find replacement products—so that ivory is no longer synonymous with rising affluence, but that, say, a Louis Vuitton handbag could be. When you went to Africa last summer, what did you learn from being on the ground? We went where there are indigenous elephant populations—from Malawi up to Tanzania. In Tanzania, we were in Tarangire National Park; it was amazing not only to see the elephants in all of their magnificence but to see the families, to understand on a deeper level why it’s so important that the matriarchs—which are increasingly the ones that are killed because they’re the oldest and have the biggest tusks—not be slaughtered. Without the guidance of those older figures, it’s hard for younger families to survive. And the park rangers are in such peril protecting the older elephants. Yes. More than a thousand rangers have been killed over the last decade protecting elephants and other wildlife. They feel called to this work for the elephants’ sake, but also recognize this is important to their country’s future. Why do you think elephants mean so much to you and your mother? The first elephants that I saw were in the Little Rock Zoo when I was a little girl. What I felt then was just magnified profoundly when I went with my mom to Africa as a
teenager. It is this sense of a family, ultimately—the family unit of elephants and the affection, and the commitment to their families and to the other elephant families in the area. Also, elephants are so crucial to the ecosystem. They’re sort of the honeybees of the African savannah or their forest environment. It’s been a year since you and your mother announced CGI’s $80 million elephant poaching commitment. Can you share any progress reports? Judith McHale—who worked for my mom in the State Department, liaising on conservation efforts there—is chairing the [President’s Advisory Council on Wildlife Trafficking]. We fully support everything the Obama administration has done and strongly support an ivory ban here at home. We think that’s a critical move for the United States to make—not only for our own moral standing, but also because there is no argument for ivory being indispensable. There are very good substitute materials—whether it’s for a piano or a musical pick, or any of the utilitarian uses of ivory—so we have been deeply enthusiastic about the commission’s work. I understand you’re planning on doing something during New York Fashion Week in September? Most of the major luxury goods houses don’t use ivory. The challenge is: How do we help their products become substitutions for ivory, in East Asia in particular? Something like a Louis Vuitton bag or an Hermès scarf or a Donna Karan dress? How can those become the same types of status symbols that ivory historically has been? Also, how can we work with the fashion industry here in the US to raise awareness about this issue so that American consumers realize why you should never buy ivory? How can someone who is reading this help? One, don’t buy ivory, which sounds self-evident, but it isn’t. You’ll see stores that still sell ivory, because there is no carbon-dating equivalent for ivory. It’s impossible to assess its age, so a lot of new ivory gets laundered through antiques stores. The second thing is to support organizations that are really making a difference in this fight—whether that’s big organizations like the Wildlife Conservation Society, which has the most extensive efforts throughout Africa, or more localized organizations like the African Wildlife Foundation, which is helping to provide economic opportunities to many of the vulnerable communities around parks, often through eco-tourism programs. There’s such a range of organizations doing tremendous work that are part of our CGI commitment—yet even more work could be done if there were even more resources to do it. And also use your voice to help educate others about why this issue is so important, particularly given the number of misconceptions around ivory. I think that’s really where young people can help play a big role, using their voices offline and online, because a lot of people just don’t know what a tragedy elephant poaching really is, not just for the elephants but for the most affected communities. Ultimately, we all bear responsibility. H
Save the Elephants Be active in the battle to stop elephant poaching.
“Each day, it is estimated that 96 elephants are brutally killed in Africa for their ivory,” says Cristián Samper, president and CEO of the Wildlife Conservation Society. “Only a global movement will end the slaughter and help to ensure the survival of these magnificent animals. The Clinton Foundation is an important part of this movement. Secretary Clinton and Chelsea Clinton have used their leadership to bring attention to the threat facing Africa’s elephants and to help gather partners across the globe to join together in this fight. We are working on all fronts to stop the killing and to stop the trafficking and demand for ivory.” To learn more about this crisis and to make a donation, go to:

NATURE DOESN’T NEED PEOPLE. PEOPLE NEED NATURE. Human beings are part of nature. Nature is not dependent on human beings to exist. Human beings, on the other hand, are totally dependent on nature to exist. The growing number of people on the planet and how we live here is going to determine the future of nature. And the future of us. Nature will go on, no matter what. It will evolve. The question is will it be with us or without us. If nature could talk, it would probably say it doesn’t much matter either way. We must understand there are aspects of how our planet evolves that are totally out of our control.
© R OBIN B MO MOO O R E/ I LC P
But there are things that we can manage, control and do responsibly that will allow us and the planet to evolve together.
We are Conservation International and we need your help. Our movement is dedicated to managing those things we can control. Better. Country by country. Business by business. Human by human. We are not about us vs. them. It doesn’t matter if you’re an American, a Canadian, or a Papua New Guinean. You don’t even have to be particularly fond of the ocean or have a soft spot for elephants. This is simply about all of us coming together to do what needs to be done. Because if we don’t, nature will continue to evolve. Without us. Here’s to the future. With humans.

Haute Property news, stars, and trends in real estate
One of Strongheart’s most unique spots is a tea house that perches in the middle of a man-made pond next to the bay’s edge.
On the Gold Coast of North Haven A piece of the East End’s pre-Hollywood past can be yours on noted Actors Colony Road. by mike olson

T
he reviews were unanimous in their praise. “[It] will probably prove the real dramatic treat of the season,” said the Cornell Daily Sun. “Robert Edeson has risen to the plane of popularity in the theatrical world of which many an older star might well be proud,” said the Cambridge Chronicle of the play’s star, later adding that his character “stands out like a bas-relief among the original and unique creations of the decade.” No wonder that when it came time to christen his new manor house on the eastern shore of North Haven in 1902, noted actor Robert Edeson named it for the play and role that made him famous: Strongheart. Edeson’s career would transform over the years, as he would be among the first stage actors to embrace the moving-picture era by starring in Cecil B.
DeMille’s 1914 film The Call of the North. And the spot he chose overlooking Peconic Bay would change as well, becoming so popular among visiting actors from the city in the pre-Hollywood era (Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Mary Pickford, and Ethel Barrymore, to name a few), that Edeson’s quiet street would earn the name Actors Colony Road. Today, this spot on North Haven’s Gold Coast is still a magnet for celebrities, and the one who bought and restored Strongheart to its former glory has put it back on the market. Richard Gere may be the current owner of Strongheart Manor, but it’s the breathtaking property itself that steals the spotlight. Spanning 6.3 acres including 300 feet of bay frontage, the $47.5 million compound is comprised contined on page 236

you can just sit on chairs and overlook the water.” From this spot, she says, the boat traffic moves silently off in the distance, creating the feeling of a beautiful moving canvas. Those views are even more magnified at one of Strongheart’s most unique spots—a tea house accessed by a wooden bridge and perched in the middle of a man-made pond (put in by Edeson) that sits right next to the bay’s edge. “It’s amazing,” says Keszler. “It has screens, and you can just sit in the middle of this pond looking at the main house and out to the open water.” Here, the morning sun shimmers on the water as well as the protected Mashomack Preserve on Shelter Island off in the distance. Even the portions of these 6.3 acres that don’t sit by the water offer their own escape, with flowering gardens, rolling lawns the size of a football field, and specimen oak trees. And then there are the more modern pleasures, including a gym, a basketball court, an open-air fireplace pavilion, a 60-foot pool, and several garages. Flanking it all are the two renovated guesthouses (acquired by Gere in 2007 and 2008) that boost the bedroom tally of this compound to a full dozen. Not only are permits in place to install a 100foot dock on the property, but that construction is already underway, meaning the future owner of Strongheart will likely be someone who is lured here by this part of the East End’s beloved waterways. “We all know that in a certain profile of people they are all boaters, and that gives you a great boat size,” says Keszler, who also points to the marinas of Sag Harbor—just a five-minute drive away—that are perfect for someone who
wants to keep their boat off premises. With its sprawling property, breathtaking views, and modern amenities, Keszler sees Strongheart speaking to a number of buyers. “Nowadays, everybody is looking for bigger properties and for privacy,” she explains. “You’re really protected there. This location connects you, but it also gives you a certain peace.” Robert Edeson would no doubt agree. 70 Jobs Lane, Southampton, 204-2743; elliman.com H
Insight Nature lover: Richard Gere has outfitted Strongheart with a number of modern-day, energy-efficient options, including geothermal heating and coils in the kitchen’s copper roof that warm the pool. Celeb sightings: This area of North Haven has welcomed such high-profile summer residents as Frank Case (the owner of the Algonquin Hotel) and Irving Berlin. Today, Jimmy Buffett’s compound sits right next door to Strongheart. Land preserved: Mashomack Preserve encompasses nearly 2,100 acres—a third of all of Shelter Island. Acquired by the Nature Conservancy in 1980, the habitat is made up of interlacing tidal creeks, woodlands, fields, and coastline. (Hiking on marked trails is allowed.)

contined from page 235 of three single and separate lots, with the restored manor house anchoring the property. “It’s rare that an old house gets such a pristine renovation,” says Douglas Elliman associate real estate broker Michaela Keszler. “A lot of times you see them dead renovated; there’s nothing left. With this house, there’s so much charm. They kept it simple; it’s just elegant and beautiful.” The majestic home boasts mesmerizing views from nearly every room, including the formal living room (with grand piano), a less-formal den with an original stone fireplace, an adjoining family room, a gourmet chef’s kitchen, and numerous sitting and entertaining areas, highlighted by a screened-in porch that spans nearly the entire length of the house. It is this porch—and the breathtaking water views it affords—that Keszler counts among her favorite elements of the house. “It nearly wraps around the whole back of the house, and it’s like another room,” she explains. “You can lunch there, you can have dinner, and

Make It Unique Michael Braverman: What are some of the outdoor amenities that you’ve seen that are unusual or different? Christine Curiale: I’m seeing quite a few people make a change from chlorine to saltwater pools. I’m also seeing—which I didn’t really expect— in the last three big multimillion dollar purchases that we’ve had, everyone wanted to add televisions outside. Deborah Srb: I’ve seen a lot of rooftop living spaces that take advantage of the views. Claudia LaMere: I also think another trend is the outdoor shower. It used to be that a hose was hooked up to cold water, but now they’re very elaborate. It’s even nicer sometimes to take a shower outside than it is inside! Mala Sander: Outdoor spaces are truly fantastic, with curtains and televisions—everything you would have in the indoor space, I’m seeing people bring outdoors. I’m seeing Turkish rugs being placed directly on the lawn, coffee tables, and chandeliers hanging from trees—really beautiful spaces that are almost magical.

MB: Let’s elaborate from what’s happening to why it’s happening… DS: Palm Beach and certain parts of California have weather that’s conducive to year-round outdoor lifestyles; in the Hamptons, for the most part, people were living indoors, but the trend lately is living outdoors. The weather hasn’t changed, but our lifestyles have, [and there’s a] need to create these sanctuaries. MS: In that vein of people investing in themselves, I’m also seeing meditation gardens. Even on a half an acre, there are so many ways to implement all the good energy of the Hamptons. Mark Eickelbeck: The outdoors has a calming effect on the soul. We’re living in such a tech-inundated world, so the ability to go home and sit in your tent or gazebo grounds us and has a calming effect. Matthew Stengel: To add to that, we’re finding more that privacy is a huge continued on page 240

—Mala Sander continued from page 238 factor in the outdoors. Everyone wants screening, and for their vegetable gardens, their secret gardens, where they can go to picnic and retreat from their everyday lives. MB: Lets move on to architecture. What are the trends? CL: In my neighborhood alone, four new houses went up in the last six months, and all of them are Shingle Style. From what I see, Hamptons Shingle Style is still very popular. DS: There is a trend toward modernism, but it’s more inside. People are collectively relating to the open space, the high ceilings, the light, and the big windows. ME: Personally, I’d love to build more modernist homes, but as a developer, you’re going to go where the largest market is calling. The modern home is not a mass-market home; you usually see a modern design on higher-end homes—it’s a much smaller market that you’re going after. M. Sander: My experience has been quite the contrary; I’m seeing, almost overwhelmingly, a trend toward modern. I’m seeing everything from a 3,000-square-foot cube with three bedrooms plus a den that is convertible to a master suite if you have a guest—on half an acre to 10,000-square-feet on a much larger space. And the smaller homes are spectacular because a 3,000-square-foot traditional house doesn’t have a continued on page 242

MB: Talking about sanctuaries, do you see any trends in bathrooms? DS: I don’t think they’ve ever been more luxurious. [At one time], a sufficient master bath would be a sink, a toilet, and a showerhead, but today, you find natural stones, wild grasses, and a steam shower. ME: There’s no doubt there’s a lot more focus on the bathroom, but what I’m curious about is how much people are actually using these luxuries. To me, a bathroom is a practical room… [Laughs] CC: It really depends on whom you’re talking to. As a woman, I look forward to having a glass of wine in the bath, whereas my husband would ask why we need such a big bathroom. M. Sander: Relaxation spaces are as varied as the people who come out here. There are people who will want a studio because they paint, or people who want a music room, or a yoga room, or that big bath to unwind in. It’s so personal. H

or me, the Hamptons is all about living in an effortless yet chic way, and it was a natural process for me to find vintage pieces in the local stores that I could mix in with my custom designs,” says internationally acclaimed designer Sofia Joelsson about the Hamptons home she recently completed—an endeavor that involved Joelsson personally house hunting for her client. At 7,500 square feet, with seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms, Casa Cashmina merges old-world sensibilities with modern amenities. The interiors feature vintage items from Mecox and MONC XIII, furniture from Rumrunner Home, accessories from Fishers Home Furnishings, and lighting from Ruby Beets, combined with pieces from Joelsson’s own furniture collection, like a restored vintage chandelier and a custom, one-of-a-kind stainless steel pool table. “Since the outdoors plays such a big part in Hamptons entertaining, I designed several outdoor areas where the family could gather with friends to relax or entertain, such as the sunken fire pit, the bocce ball court, and a custom Calacatta gold marble hand-carved dining table for 20 under the trellis of wisteria,” the designer explains. sojodesign.com H

“The materials we use are the same as those that have been used for centuries, but every craftsman’s technique differs slightly according to his own instincts and experience,” says The Lacquer Company founder James Lowther. “This means that each piece we produce is truly unique.” Lowther bought his first piece of lacquer—a century-old betel box in burnt orange—while traveling in Burma 15 years ago. While working in interior design in New York, he began sourcing these pieces from Asia before collaborating with friends and fellow designers Rita Konig, Martin Brudnizki, and Steven Gambrel on creating individual collections under a single company.

hen driving along the beach in Southampton, be sure and stop at St. Andrew’s Dune Church and visit its unique on-property garden that’s open to the public. The fact that a garden survives, nestled on the dune between the ocean and Lake Agawam, with no fencing, is nothing short of a miracle. Thanks to loving hands and optimistic, dedicated volunteers, this serene sight beckons worshippers of all denominations to celebrate, sing, mourn, and reflect each summer season. continued on 252

continued from page 250 For 135 years, worshippers have gathered at this former life-saving station. Since 1930, the Southampton Garden Club has supported the gardens; the Dune Church Trustees annually select members of the Garden Club to serve as chairmen of the Grounds Committee. After World War II, my friend Doris Magowan, whose own gardens were as legendary as her elegant style and generosity, took the lead. When her husband, Robert, a trustee of the church for 37 years, passed away in 1985, she and her children dedicated the Magowan Memorial Garden, which was designed in his memory and created by Garden Club members Dudley Mason and Laurie Carson. When the entire church was relocated in 1996 as a precautionary measure (it was moved farther from the ocean and placed in a higher spot), the gardens were redesigned by Lee Lisman, another Garden Club member. Presently, Jane Bunn and Pat Nadosy chair the Grounds Committee, continuing to nurture native and ornamental plants that flourish oceanside. Thirteen years ago, when Doris died,
the Magowan Family Foundation left funds to be administered through the Garden Club to help maintain the garden. “It has always been a summer feature to have the church looking beautiful beside the beach, says Alan McFarland, the current president of St. Andrew’s Dune Church. “We want people to come and worship in the summer; it is open to anyone. Catholic priests and rabbis have all taken turns at the pulpit as guest preachers. A bride may bring her own minister. We are open at 11 am on 16 Sundays, from June 15 through the last Sunday in September, and services have been led for 25 years by beloved Reverend Peter Larsen. Afterward, a bagpiper plays and families are encouraged to visit the gardens. They create a wonderful spiritual spot.” In addition to the welcoming worship services offered to the congregation, the actual structure and grounds of Dune Church position it as a respite. “The key to it all is Lee Lisman’s beautiful design. We are so appreciative of Doris Magowan’s leadership and of her family’s continued on page 254

continued from page 252 generous gift that allows us to maintain the gardens,” says Nadosy. “Diane Czelatka works with us in adapting the design.” With no major changes made, the bones of the garden remain: the crepe myrtles, Hollywood junipers, barberry bushes, and ornamental grasses. “We changed the annuals, due to the deer, replacing impatiens and geraniums with chamaecyparis ‘Gold Thread,’ white scaevola, festuca ‘Elijah Blue,’ and low-growing junipers that surround the church,” Nadosy continues. “Deer destroyed our hydrangeas. But Diane’s creative tweaks—like using aromatic herbs, including Russian sage, thyme, and lavender—keep away the deer and carry on the spirit of the gardens.” In response to the altered needs of a now-mature

garden, a new irrigation system has been put in place, which helps the vitex, buddleia, and hydrangea “tardiva” to thrive. “Children love to play hide-and-seek, following a little path under the Russian olives. They think it is a scary forest!” Nadosy says. “Our gardens are the backdrop for many a wedding photo. Juniper (torulosa) turns out to be a terrific seaside plant. Its twisted, dark green foliage looks good in all seasons.” Thanks to the congregation and to the Magowan family, this vibrant creation continues to brighten the vision of passersby of all ages who take the time to stop, strolling through the gardens that flower, unbent by the ocean’s wrath. Visitors can appreciate nature’s beauty and man’s desire for spirituality and reflection… not a bad combination! H

F
rom his first commission in Montauk in 1967 to the recently completed children’s wing of the East Hampton Library, architect Robert A.M. Stern has become as associated with the Hamptons as he is with his Manhattan buildings (15 Central Park West, Superior Ink). “I’m on the north side of Montauk Highway, practically over the edge of the earth,” says Stern of his East Hampton home. “In the summers, I try to get there every weekend. I sit in my screened porch and maybe do some writing and reading. And then I have my grandchildren, who live more or less behind me, so I absolutely love it.” Here, the dean of the Yale School of Architecture and J.M. Hoppin professor discusses his decades on the East End. Hamptons: When you were just starting out, was the East End a proving ground for young architects or did you have to be established first? Robert A.M. Stern: It was a proving ground for myself, Charles Gwathmey, Richard Meier, and Jack Robertson... But it was also a testing ground for how we felt about local context. Meier and Gwathmey were embarked on a quest to revive the 1920s modernism of Le Corbusier. Robertson and I were much more interested in the local vernaculars of the eastern end of Long Island, what Vincent Scully labeled “Shingle Style” in 1955. How important is a home’s address to your design? The villages are different, there’s no question, but there’s a lot of commonality. Shingle Style abounds in the older villages. In this office, I always look at the large picture of a village and then the immediate context of what’s around. Then, of course, you talk to your clients. Do less experienced architects worry about how a Hamptons house “should” look instead of following their hearts? I’m all for following one’s heart, but I hope they follow it in the right direction. Shingle Style is a wonderful, supple vocabulary. If you do it well, you can get something that’s both familiar and fresh at the same time. There’s an awful lot of Shingle Style houses that people think I’ve designed, but I haven’t done that many. That speaks to your influence.
256 hamptons-magazine.com
I’m happy to have been influential, but I wish many of the people who were influenced had paid a little more attention to the finer points. Do they not stand up to closer inspection? They look reasonably passable on the outside, but inside they are usually disproportioned with ridiculous double-height volumes that nobody needs or can figure out how to furnish. They miss the point completely. Is your process the same whether you’re designing a cottage or a 950-foot tower in the city? They use the same skills—attention to detail, care of proportions, making historic references if appropriate, and so forth. But we’re not doing a shingle tower in Manhattan, and we’re not doing a limestone-clad house on Long Island. It’s combining specific decisions about style with the principles that govern all our work. Speaking of proportions, a 6,000-square-foot home you designed in Water Mill is on the market. Today, that would be considered cozy. It is a cozy house, but it’s not tiny. My goodness, 6,000 square feet is enough for a lot of people! There is a tendency today to have bigger houses, but that’s not my requirement. We’re starting a design for a cottage in East Hampton Village that will be about 3,500 square feet. I’m having a lot of fun designing it, in fact. Are you surprised by today’s prices? That same Water Mill house is asking $27.5 million. Worth every penny! Robert A.M.

“ Eighty percent of the property has been designed by a Chinese artist with a Feng Shui theme.”

hile many Hamptonites embrace the Shingle Style that’s emblematic of the East End, others use their area acreage to recreate their favorite foreign destinations, from Italian palazzos to Spanish stuccos to St-Barth’s hilltop estates. Another example sits on over 4.5 acres in Bridgehampton North. “Eighty or 90 percent of the property has been designed by a Chinese artist with a Feng Shui theme,” explains Douglas Elliman’s Robert Kohr, who is listing the property with Lori MacGarva. “The gardens are truly spectacular. There’s really nothing like it out here.” Featuring a recreated 15th-century temple (with authentic, 500-yearold doors), no expense was spared to create this East End version of the Far East. The property also includes a soothing koi pond and a teahouse adjacent to the pool that boasts trim and decorations that are all either vintage or careful recreations. As for the pool, it is surrounded by two levels of winding paths, curved bridges, and stone sculptures that bring a feeling of relaxation to every visitor. —Robert Kohr “They have all been placed with a certain theme,” Kohr emphasizes. “The artist even set it up so there’s a way to walk through the paths.” The result, which has landed on both regional and national garden tours, is unlike anything Kohr or MacGarva have listed in the area. “I grew up out here, and I’ve seen a lot of high-end properties with different types of gardens,” Kohr adds. “But when you walk through this, you really feel transported to some other place.” 20 Main St., East Hampton, 267-7375; elliman.com H

Outside the Box A new breed of Buyers is craving an alternative to modern and shingle style homes, says Christina Galesi of Sotheby’s International Realty.
T
raditional architecture will always be king in the Hamptons, while its modernist counterpart clearly has its ardent fans. However, according to Christina Galesi of Sotheby’s International Realty, there’s a new breed of buyer that covets styles that break both those molds. “There’s definitely a reaction of people craving something a little bit different,” she explains. “The people who call me say, ‘We don’t want to have the look that everyone else has. Can you show us something that’s a little bit unique?’ ” Luckily, they have choices. One option that excites buyers is keeping a traditional façade with sleeker, more modern interiors. And if their dream house doesn’t have that look, they’ll just cre—Christina Galesi ate it. “More than anything,” adds Galesi, “I’m seeing that they’re taking the traditional [aesthetic] and inviting their architects and designers to come in and modernize.” Out go heavier moldings and bulky windowpanes (and even the occasional back wall, replaced with glass), in favor of a fresher look with cleaner lines. For those reluctant to take things so far, Galesi sees the modern barn style as bridging the gap. “That’s definitely the hybrid,” she explains. “It has traditional elements but with more of a barn feel— big wood doors, heavier beams, and soaring, two-story living rooms that use natural elements like stone to give it a more rustic feel.” The result blazes a new path while paying homage to the East End’s rich history. “They are just carving some different elements,” she adds. “We don’t want to change what has drawn people here all these years.” 50 Nugent St., Southampton, 283-0600; sothebyshomes.com H

Lawrence “Larry” Scott Gottesman of Lawrence Scott Events discusses what makes an ultra-memorable evening. by ava williams
“A
‘Larry Party’ just became this little slogan,” says Lawrence “Larry” Scott Gottesman, who started his event-planning business, Lawrence Scott Events, in 1989. The Hicksville native, who has a background in catering and restaurants, offers clients everything party-related, including supplying equipment and designing full custom events like weddings, anniversaries, and charity fundraisers. “You’re not buying a venue; you’re buying an individual,” he says. Gottesman says his parties are inspired by his travels and his staff’s attention to detail is what makes his events memorable. With 16 fulltimers and 150 part-time staff members, the Lawrence Scott team makes sure glasses stay filled, food is overflowing, and the bar is always
the primary focal point. “You can never hold back,” Gottesman says. A large supporter of charities for 25 years, Lawrence Scott Events has donated the décor and decorating for the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s Metro New York annual gala, “An Evening of Wishes.” There is also an upcoming bash for Vy Higginsen’s Mama Foundation for the Arts, which produces its signature show, Mama, I Want to Sing, in the works. One of Gottesman’s most memorable events was Carol and Stewart Rahr’s star-studded Life is Good private party with 250 guests, including former President Bill Clinton, real estate mogul Donald Trump, and media maven Gayle King, and performances by Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli and Grammy-winning R&B singer Alicia Keys. 35 Bethpage Road, Hicksville, 516-933-7535; lawrencescottevents.com H

The owners have done a beautiful job with the renovation. We joined the club, and it’s nice because when you’re sitting there having a meal, it feels like a place you’ll see a lot of people you know. For my husband and me, the Hamptons isn’t so much about going out or entertaining as it is about just taking a break from my very busy life. It’s an opportunity to kick back, biking from Cupsogue to Shinnecock, or walking on the beach. This summer we celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary by buying our own waterfront home, not far from where we were married. The paint is still wet it’s so new. But coming from the busy life that I lead, having an opportunity to have that peace and quiet with nature all around really does do something for the soul, and I’m cherishing my new little stake in the ground.

’ve been coming out to the Hamptons for nearly 30 years. Even before I met my husband, Jonathan, I would go to the Hamptons with my friends to various places around Quogue, Sag Harbor, and Westhampton. My husband’s family had a house in Quogue for a long time, and we spent much of our dating life there. Because my father-in-law spent so much time in the Hamptons, he had a ton of friends who would always have dinner parties. During our wedding weekend, Mona Ackerman, who passed away in 2012, had a dinner for us at her home in Westhampton. Then we had our rehearsal dinner at the Stone Creek Inn, which is still one of my favorite restaurants. We got married on June 13 at my husband’s father’s home in Quogue. It was the most amazing ceremony right on the tennis court. My mother-in-law organized everything to perfection, and a friend drove us. I wore an Arnold Scaasi dress. It was truly a beautiful wedding.
