For Ralph Lauren’s 50th anniversary show, the brand returned to the same location as his 40th in 2008, this time round at the famous Bethesda Terrace in Central Park. The show attendees included celebrities like Kanye West, Anna Wintour, Oprah Winfrey, Hillary Clinton, Jessica Chastain, Robert Di Niro, designer icons Tommy Hilfiger and Diane Von Furstenberg, to name a few.
“MY 50TH ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION IS INSPIRED BY THE TIMELESS HEROINE WHO THRIVES ON ORIGINALITY, CREATING HER OWN PERSONAL STYLE THROUGH AN ECLECTIC COMBINATION OF INFLUENCES, FROM A ROMANTIC KIND OF VINTAGE TO A BOLD, MODERN SOPHISTICATION. IN CELEBRATION OF 50 YEARS, I CELEBRATE A WOMAN’S FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, HER STRENGTH AND INDIVIDUALITY.” Ralph Lauren
The western influences dominated the first half of the show, while the All-American cool was seen in the high-low mix of sequinned skirts and heavily embellished everyday wear paired with a cable-knit jumper for women and tailored tweed jackets worn with dungarees for men. The Polo brand was well represented, as was Ralph Lauren sport, ski and scholar chic.
“To design without fashion in mind, to design something that is legendary and timeless, is what I aspire to.” Ralph Lauren

Private launch event of the Australian jewelry brand, ūberkate, at the exclusive The Back Room lounge – 102 Norfolk Street.
The Back Room is one of only two authentic speakeasies that operated during Prohibition and is a timeless example of the underbelly of New York past. The Back Room was also frequented by famous actors of “The Roaring Twenties”, as well as famous gangsters of the era including: Bugsy Siegel, Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky.
“The reason why we chose this space to host our launch event is because the 20’s was also the era of the start of female empowerment. Women began to embrace their independence by cutting their hair in stylish short bobs, voting, and most visually expressing their independence by proudly wearing their chosen cocktail rings every day as a symbol of their strength.”
We invite you to come meet the ūberkate designer, Kate Sutton, who will be here from Sydney Australia. uberkate.com.au

Sally Field, Kate Morton & Amber Tamblyn.
Award-winning actress and director Sally Field has kept personal journals for decades and always intended to keep her writing private. But when her mother died in 2011 on the actress’s 65th birthday, Field began to write a memoir, In Pieces
It’s no wonder that Kate Morton (The Clockmaker’s Daughter, Atria, Oct.), who travels with aplomb to vastly different time zones between her current London residence and her homeland of Australia, is fascinated by different aspects of time. “There’s something about that transit tunnel,” she says. “It’s quite surreal to step inside one set of airport doors and then in 24 hours emerge on the other side of the world. I never quite get my head around how unbelievable that is. We take it for granted, but that’s pretty amazing.”
Just weeks before the Harvey Weinstein scandal hit and the #MeToo movement went viral, actress, writer, and film director Amber Tamblyn wrote an ardent New York Times editorial about how she was done with not being believed about her own harassment by one of her TV show’s crew members and, earlier, at the age of 16, by one of Hollywood’s superstars. “It was a hugely read piece, and I don’t think any of us expected that to happen. The fact that it was so widely shared and talked about was because many people—women, people in the trans community, other marginalized people—were feeling that same exact thing,” says Tamblyn.

MASTERING THE ART OF CAVIAR
CELEBRATE 30 YEARS OF MAGICAL CAVIAR WITH AUDACIOUS LA PRAIRIE.
Rare and sumptuous, caviar has been the ultimate in decadence since the time of the Tsars, evoking an elite world of fine living, nobility and opulence. The epitome of pleasure and tasteful indulgence, the sophisticated luxury is endlessly coveted. In a poetic reflection of its refined status, the delicacy’s luminescent beads glimmer like precious pearls that could never be replaced.
Caviar hails from the mysterious depths of cobalt blue seas. Deep within these pristine waters lies an enchanted place where nature performs miracles. Thirty years ago, La Prairie discovered one of them — caviar is the key to a world of beauty with no temporal limits.
The luxury skincare brand broke the codes of luxury and became the first to use the unparalleled potency of caviar as a privileged indulgence for the skin. Elevating science to an art, in 1987 La Prairie launched its Skin Caviar Collection, a paragon of refinement infused with the restorative powers of caviar, a magical source of rich nutrients.

Bose noise-masking Sleepbuds. Tiny, wireless earbuds that combine an ultra-comfortable design with soothing sounds to block, cover, and replace the most common noises that interfere with sleep. Bose Sleepbuds are the smallest Bose product ever made, and are packed with proprietary technology. They come with 10 pre-loaded “sleeptracks” that mirror the frequencies of snoring, neighbors, dogs, traffic, and more — hiding them beneath a layer of relaxing audio.
Bose Sleepbuds are the first Bose product to use Bose noise-masking technology. They aren’t active noise cancelling headphones, they’re not in-ear headphones with an added feature, and they don’t stream music — because every last detail was optimized for one thing — better sleep, all night, every night.

John Brown reigns as the true Kansas City -style bites BBQ. Find a seat in the back and settle in for a serious shindig. Find city folk ordering perfectly done meats served with a thick and rich barbecue sauce. Rib tips and burnt ends are juicy, tender, and sumptuous when paired with baked beans studded with bits of smoked meat or killer mac-and-cheese that is appropriately bright orange, creamy, and sparked by black pepper. An order of the corn pudding is a must, and nicely caps off a meal here. Fingerlicking is an inevitable end. JohnBrownSeriousBBQ.com

The Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center of the Hamptons celebrated their 12thAnnual GET WILD! Summer Gala at Joan and Bernard Carl’s Little Orchard Gardenon Coopers Neck Lane in Southampton. The event honored Jay Schneiderman, Southampton Town Supervisor and Susan McGraw Keber, East Hampton Town Trustee, and welcomed distinguished guests to celebrate the united efforts to rehabilitate animals and successfully release them back into the wild across Long Island.
The Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center, Eastern Long Island’s only wildlife hospital, is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to the rehabilitation of wild animals impacted by encroachment of humans on their habitat. It is a grass roots organization that grew from a few concerned friends to a group of over 3,000 members and supporters. The center is a full-time professional wildlife hospital staffed by licensed rehabilitators, biologists, animal behaviorists and volunteers. Over 300 people have been trained to assist in wildlife rescues. The Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center is located on Munn’s Pond Park through a cooperative licensing agreement with Suffolk County Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation. The center is situated on a greenbelt of public land parcels totaling several thousand acres and stretches from Tiana Bay to Peconic Bay located on the eastern end of Long Island, NY. This is a unique and irreplaceable ecosystem consisting of salt and fresh water wetlands, Pine Barrens, deciduous forest and meadowland. Thus, it is the perfect setting for a wildlife rehabilitation center. The hospital is designed exclusively for wild animals. Unlike a veterinary hospital, there are no ambient noises or smells to stress the wildlife that are recovering within. The Wildlife Rescue Center receives more than 10,000 calls each year for information or assistance involving wild animal encounters. The center also provides educational programs to local elementary and secondary schools. Students from local colleges participate in cooperative education programs and internships. The Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center annual operating budget exceeds $650,000, almost all of which comes from generous donors. WildlifeRescueCenter.org

In honor of Bastille Day, also known as French National Day, Courvoisier will honor its French heritage with a unique cognac experience at the Lower East Side’s Dirty French that brings to life Courvoisier’s history, quality credentials and grape-to-glass process. Courvoisier.com
IF YOU DON’T STAND FOR SOMETHING, YOU DON’T STAND A CHANCE.
A code makes sure your ascent is guided by something bigger than hunger and ambition.Something bigger than yourself.
KEEP YOUR EYES ON YOUR CRAFT AND THE WORLD WILL TOO.
In the early 1800s Courvoisier founders Louis Gallois and Emmanuel Courvoisier had a simple goal: making the world’s best cognac. The medals, accolades and even the recognition from Napoleon Bonaparte himself were simply a product of that.
TO REACH GREAT HEIGHTS YOU NEED DEEP ROOTS.
We were born in the streets of Paris and even though we relocated to Jarnac, a small town in the heart of the Cognac region, we take pride in bringing that Parisian sensibility to every corner of the world.
