Christian Siriano Releases The New Red Carpet ⁠
•••⁠
⁠
American fashion designer Christian Siriano takes readers through a series of breathtaking designs worn by well-known celebrities to red carpet events worldwide in his new coffee-table book The New Red Carpet. After launching his first collection in 2008 and studying under Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen, Siriano has successfully created a name for himself by crafting groundbreaking fashion designs and styling some of pop culture’s most prominent icons. Following his debut coffee-table book in 2017, Dresses to Dream About, fans have been anticipating a new project to showcase his stunning works. They will not be disappointed with this addition. His latest publication, in partnership with Rizzoli, celebrates the fashion and entertainment world and emphasizes the evolution of fashion and design craftsmanship in an ever-changing world.⁠
⁠
Throughout the creative process of his designs, Siriano consistently showcases key themes, often with every detail tailored to the person or event he is styling. His designs reflect diversity, inclusion, and body positivity, carefully crafted to fit the body and personality of his design subjects. With iconic stars such as Celine Dion, Angelina Jolie, Janelle Monaé, Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Lopez, Kortney Kardashian, and many more A-List celebrities, Siriano possesses a strong talent for designing to match each individual’s aura, allowing each one to shine in their own bold and unique way. This emphasis on diversity and body positivity ensures that everyone can find inspiration in Siriano’s designs regardless of their shape, size, or background.⁠
⁠
The New Red Carpet gives readers an inside scoop on many quintessential events by providing exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes photos showing the process from the fitting to the carpet, insight into Siriano’s thoughts and design process for each outfit, and much more content that makes this coffee-table book a work of art and storytelling.⁠

A Cultural Gem on Florida’s West Coast⁠ ••

A Cultural Gem on Florida’s West Coast⁠
•••⁠
⁠
I came in winter for the opera—plus the ballet, the art, the symphony, and more theater than it would be possible to take in if attending a performance every day for a month. But I stayed for the beaches, the vintage shopping, and a brilliant dining scene I had not expected—what a multifaceted destination Sarasota turned out to be!⁠
⁠
It may only be the sixty-ninth largest town in Florida, but amazingly, Sarasota has the same number of arts organizations as New York City. And it may be the only destination in the USA, maybe the world, which caters to culture vultures and beach bums in equal measure. So much culture that my hostess—a Manhattan transplant of ten years’ standing—urged me to give up the lazy afternoons and evenings where I delighted in getting sand between my toes to squeeze in just one more city museum—as if!⁠
⁠
In the end, I spent more than a week alternating between the two Sarasotas, running around a bewildering array of cultural venues but chilling out every other day in a different beach town; there are so many surrounding this tiny west coast Floridian city in every direction.⁠

Artwork In Motion: Belmond Unveils L’Observatoir

Artwork In Motion: Belmond Unveils L’Observatoire Sleeper Carriage⁠
•••⁠
⁠
The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, A Belmond Train with routes through Europe, proudly unveils the interiors of L’Observatoire by world-renowned artist JR. This is the first carriage designed by an artist on board and the most exclusive and spacious accommodation type on the train.⁠
⁠
Scheduled to join the rake in March 2025, L’Observatoire is an artwork in motion that pays tribute to the train’s rich history of timeless crafts. Drawing inspiration from astronomical observatories and Renaissance Europe’s cabinet of curiosity, the sleeper carriage has been meticulously curated by JR, who has replicated the spirit of his Parisian art studio with personal objets d’art or keepsakes to be uncovered throughout the “studio on wheels.” In the most outstanding accommodation on rails, JR invites guests to immerse themselves in a world that ignites curiosity, a sense of adventure, and introspection.⁠
⁠
Gary Franklin, vice president of trains and cruises at Belmond, says, “Intended as an ‘artwork in motion,’ L’Observatoire will offer an unparalleled blend of art, luxury, and immersive storytelling. JR’s thoughtful integration of exceptional craftsmanship is evident throughout, resulting in a truly unique and transformative travel experience. Alongside our pre-existing room categories—Historical, Suite, and Grand Suite—this launch underscores Belmond’s commitment to perpetuating the art of slow luxury.”⁠

A VIE Christmas Story The holidays are upon us, an

A VIE Christmas Story
The holidays are upon us, and every year, I reminisce that it is truly my favorite time of year. I have joked that one reason I love it so much is we seem to be able to take a collective breath with time off to enjoy the season and enjoy life! This is one of the many reasons I welcome the holidays with open arms, but it’s not the only one. I feel happy and grateful for all I have been blessed with and even think about things that didn’t go as well as I had hoped, but it’s all part of the DNA of life. At the end of the year, no matter the ups and downs, if you have your health, friends, and family, you are rich beyond measure.
Preparing for holidays might include trying a new pumpkin pie recipe, finding stocking stuffers, figuring out the menu and who is cooking what with my sister-in-law Renee, thinking about which wrapping paper to use for different presents, and decorating the tree. It soothes my soul, reminding me of times gone by and how my mom did these things for us when we were children and even after we became adults. Nostalgia. It’s a big thing for me. I’m not sure why, but it just feels good. Having a cup of hot chocolate while watching It’s a Wonderful Life gives me all the feels.
I believe you can see and feel a spirit of nostalgia in this VIE issue; it feels old-fashioned to me in the best sense. Our cover artist, Fabiola González (@ohkeidea), created a magical work to celebrate a whimsical, fanciful depiction of Christmastime.
To help with unique present ideas, we curated an extensive holiday gift guide in C’est la VIE, which has become a VIE Christmas tradition. Check it out, but remember to buy from local shops and establishments, too! You should also try new dishes from “The Holiday Table: Festive Recipes for Every Occasion.”
And because Christmas is also the reason for the season, I pause to give thanks that this is our savior’s birthday, and it’s a time of rejoicing and honoring Jesus!
“For to us, a child is born; to us, a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
—Isaiah 9:6

Merry Christmas to All,
@lisamburwell
