Surveying the Style in an Elite Summer Retreat
Many places where the rich have second homes tend to have their own fashion flair. Palm Beach, Fla., is known for Lily Pulitzer florals, for instance, and it's hard to take a stroll on Nantucket without encountering salmon-pink trousers. In the Town of Southampton, the Long Island enclave that includes the hamlets of Bridgehampton, Sagaponack and Water Mill, the scene at a party at the Southampton Arts Center last Friday suggested an enduring appeal for blue-blooded staples like white and printed pants, navy blazers, pastel dresses and the $725 hand-sewn loafers known as Belgian Shoes. 'They love velvet slippers and fancy pants and big hats on ladies,' Jeffrey Banks, a fashion designer and an author of 'Preppy: Cultivating Ivy Style,' said while surveying the crowd. 'It's all part of lush living.' Mr. Banks, 71, was among the roughly 200 people who had gathered to celebrate Southampton SEEN, a column in The Southampton Press that features event and man-on-the-street photographs taken locally. Along with glimpses of notable names — Southampton SEEN has featured snapshots of the model Christie Brinkley, who lives in Bridgehampton, and the leather-wearing architect Peter Marino — the column has also offered a peek into its subjects' closets, so to speak.

Chanel expands in Latin America with Riviera Maya flagship
The spirit of Chanel has arrived in Cancún. Nestled in the Riviera Maya's La Isla shopping destination, the new 360-square-meter boutique brings together every facet of the house's savoir-faire, offering clients a full sensory journey through its ready-to-wear, fine jewelry, watches, accessories, and interior design collections. Longtime Chanel collaborator Peter Marino designed the boutique's interiors, blending refined craftsmanship with modern sophistication. Inside, clients can explore the brand's complete ready-to-wear universe, including apparel, handbags, shoes, eyewear, costume jewelry, and fragrances. The boutique also features dedicated salons for Chanel's fine watches and high jewelry collections. A dedicated salon inside the boutique highlights Chanel's Première and J12 timepieces, alongside fine jewelry collections such as Coco Crush, N°5, and Camélia. The footwear section combines timeless staples like classic slingbacks with new arrivals from the 2024/25 Métiers d'art collection, displayed against tweed-upholstered walls and bronze-accented finishes. The boutique's design draws directly from Gabrielle Chanel's legendary apartment on rue Cambon in Paris. It balances polished surfaces and rich textiles with contemporary artworks by Priscilla Rattazzi and Eric Haze, creating a refined and immersive environment. Outside, the boutique's façade turns heads with its sculptural blend of black volcanic stone and carved white Thasos marble, mimicking the pleats of fine fabric and lending architectural depth to the space. The Cancún opening forms part of Chanel's broader global growth strategy led by CEO Leena Nair. For 2025, the brand is focusing on expansion across key markets, including China, India, and Mexico. In October 2023, Chanel debuted its first Latin American boutique dedicated exclusively to ready-to-wear at Mexico City's Artz Pedregal shopping center. Initially a temporary space, the location is set to evolve into a permanent boutique.

Meet The New Look Milanese Home Of Louis Vuitton
The reopening of Louis Vuitton's iconic Milan store unveils a new cultural destination, bringing with it high- level gastronomy and an entire floor dedicated to its Home Collections From Fashion Week to Teatro alla Scala and the cobbled streets that lead to Via Montenapoleone and the Duomo, Milan is always a good idea. But with the reopening of Louis Vuitton's historic Via Montenapoleone 2 destination, a summer escape is even more alluring. Following three years of restoration work on Palazzo Taverna, including the store that has undergone something of an architectural revolution, the location has become a cornerstone of culture, design and gastronomy. The renovations pay tribute to the city of Milan, Milanese tradition and the architecture of Lombardy, with each detail expressing the decades-old ties between Louis Vuitton and Italy. The architectural work was undertaken by the legendary Peter Marino, who has nearly doubled the floor area. Elegance resides in the details and in the materials used: all the carpentry was done locally, while the stone – of which there are 15 different varieties – was cut in workshops in Lombardy. Contemporary art is everywhere, from the central atrium to the staircase, and furniture comprises Italianate pieces each an emblem of modern design. Beyond the aesthetics, the Louis Vuitton Home Collections has a dedicated space on the second floor, featuring its five lines, including the new Signature Collection, just launched at Milan Design Week. But, perhaps the biggest draw of all is the gastronomy. The space welcomes Da Vittorio Café Louis Vuitton, designed as a beautiful jardin d'hiver, which opens alongside DaV by Da Vittorio Louis Vuitton – the first restaurant concept in Italy for the Maison. Serving only Italian dishes, from antipasti to osso bucco, the Louis Vuitton Monogram present across many dishes assures that you've come to the right place.
