Chic in Tribeca

One of my pet peeves that I shared in the new issue of Domino magazine is when when everything looks like it was delivered from the same store on the same day.  You definitely can't say that about the Tribeca apartment that Vera Wang executive Mario Grauso shares with Brood designer Serkan Sarier featured in Harper's Bazaar. You may remember Mario's other abodes that I posted on the blog years ago.  One was in Paris and the other in Millbrook.  Many of those pieces have made their way into this space including the dining table and toile upholstered chairs.  It's collecting and mixing that always makes a house look like a home.

Vera Wang at Bobo

Vera Wang staged her first runway show for her less expensive Lavender Label collection at the chic new hotspot Bobo, remember the one with the chic black chairs, and I must say, it was the perfect backdrop to the vintage inspired looking pieces.

Wang explained that the Lavender line's color palate was inspired by the painter Kees van Dongen, and the look was drawn from the Chinese cult film, In the Mood for Love, which is about Shanghai in the 1950s and 60s. "It's really beautiful and kind of dark, mysterious, sophisticated-sexy", said Wang. Sounds good to me!
