Trying new restaurants in New York City is part of the fun of being there: in 2023, there were 71 Michelin-starred eateries across the five boroughs, more than any other city in the United States. Each year, several more are nominated for (and often win) a James Beard award—a.k.a “the foodie Oscars.” And those are just the places with significant accolades: on any given day, on any given corner, you’ll see a thriving restaurant packed with its neighborhood regulars. For Gothamites, after all, go…

In 2015, Polina and Ibrahim Shaker were set up by a mutual friend in London. The two boldly chose Valentine’s Day for their first—and blind—date. It was a good gamble. “Within three months we moved in together and have stayed that way ever since,” says Polina.
Seven years later, Ibrahim proposed to Polina on her birthday at her family home in Porto Cervo, Sardinia. It wasn’t a surprise to anyone, except Polina: “All my family knew but didn’t give me any clues.”

32 years ago, just after John Derian moved to New York, something shiny caught his eye in a store window on Lafayette Street: an ornate glass cloche, filled with gilded flowers and fruits sat upon a red pin cushion. “I was like, what is that?” The decoupage artist wandered in to find out. The shopkeeper explained it was a globe de mariée—or, a 19th-century French decorative shrine made for a couple’s wedding day. “It was beautiful,” Derian says.
A few years later, Derian went to the famed Avigno…

“For me, food has always been a language: It’s a way that I could connect with other people and show love,” Umber Ahmad says while rolling ma’amoul cookie dough in her Dumbo kitchen. Outside, there’s a steady downpour of freezing rain. Inside, there’s a sense of effortlessly curated coziness: sage candles are lit and cashmere blankets strewn over couches, as soft jazz music plays in the background. The air smells like sugar, dates, and butter.
Ahmad didn’t follow a traditional path to becoming a…

It’s a well-known old wives tale that rain on your wedding day offers good luck—a symbol of both cleansing and renewal. And, after a spin through the Vogue wedding archives, it’s hard not to agree. “It just made the day that much more special,” Oleema Miller said of her rainy Oahu nuptials, where she walked barefoot in the mud down her aisle. “There is a line in the song [Van Morrison’s “Sweet Thing”] that goes, ‘We shall walk and talk in gardens all misty wet.’ I think maybe somehow I manifeste…

“It’s never really the object, let’s be honest,” Gisele Bündchen says when asked to name her favorite things in her Miami, Florida home. “It’s something emotional.” Indeed, the supermodel treasures the artwork she was given by her children more highly than pieces from established galleries. “It has her energy. I love that,” she says of a pot made by her daughter, Vivian, before pulling out a drawing by her son Benjamin. “He is an incredible artist,” she says. “I am so proud of him.”

By Tanner Richie and Fletcher Kasell’s own admission, their brand Tanner Fletcher’s first bridal collection is “unconventional.” There’s a Hollywood Regency-esque robe that looks straight out of the wardrobe of Norma Desmond, alongside a billowing sheer top styled with jeans. (For brides or grooms, they explain.) Velvet tuxedos come in a variety of pastel shades, while veils are adorned with a Tanner Fletcher favorite: bows. Everything is vintage-inspired, like you rifled through the bridal trou…

This morning, the royal family attended their annual Easter mass at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor.
It was a smaller group than normal—the Prince and Princess of Wales, as well as their three children, sat out this year’s service. The family is spending the holiday privately after the princess revealed she is undergoing treatment for cancer.
However, King Charles III did make a noticeable appearance. Back in February, the king shared that he also had been diagnosed with cancer and would need to…

The Warren Street Hotel is a bright blue building on an otherwise industrial TriBeCa block. Yet it’s a stylish thumb rather than a sore one: the color feels refreshing amid all the drab steel and weathered brick, easily catching the the eye of whoever happen to walk by, even on the dreariest Manhattan day. Peek into the windows, and you’ll see that the lobby is bursting with Memphis Group-inspired colors and patterns, while the restaurant has art descending from the ceiling. In an era of spa-lik…
