LETTERFROMTHEPUBLISHER
Welcome to YUE, a Chinese-English luxury magazine bringing
New Yorks unique experience, energy and elegance to Chinas
sophisticated travelers. YUE is a joint venture between Jared
Kushners Observer Media Group, publisher of the New York
Observer franchise, and my company CHINA HAPPENINGS,
a multimedia and advisory platform focusing on the cultural in-
dustries of contemporary China. YOU, lifestyle-conscious Chi-
nese from Greater China or residing in the tri-state area, aspire
to engage New York in its multi-faceted manifestations.
Why YUE? YUE, the second character of the Chinese rendi-
tion of New YorkNIU YUE, literally means invitation, promise
and rendezvous. Many New York luxury businesses believe that
their Chinese guests deserve a VIP treatment. We cannot agree
more. We believe that your experience of the city will be greatly
enhanced by a publication that speaks to your individual sensi-
tivity while simultaneously imparting an international outlook.
We want YUE, with its original and timely contents that appeal
to your eclectic, dynamic and fast-evolving interests and tastes,
to be our your take-away giftan embodiment of New Yorks
chic lifestyle.
I rst arrived in New York to study at Columbia Law School
after spending some time in New Haven, during which time
I commuted weekly to take an art history class at the Metro-
politan Museum of Art through a Yale University program. I
felt cosmopolitan once a week. Over the years, I received my
Juris Doctorate degree and ran the Wall Street treadmill before
I founded my own China-focused venture. Since my rst day
in New York, there has not been a single day that I do not feel at
home. At the same time, the city never loses its magic on me.
In my experience, my most gripping overseas trips were
those enriched with fond memories of meaningful interactions
with the locals. Somehow, through those personal exchanges, a
foreign experience nally sprung to life and permanently regis-
tered in ones mind. A true luxury. I hope our reader will have a
personal encounter with New York through YUE.
We are launching YUE when New Yorks holiday season is
glamorous and alluring. After a year of hard work, this is the
time for celebration and the time to give gifts to our beloved.
New York, being one of the nancial, fashion and art capitals of
the world, oers an unparallel experience in shopping.
In addition to new takes on timeless watch classics, jubilant
holiday jewelry and a New York special evening gown collec-
tion, we are taking our readers for a tour of the most indelible
shopping, dining and clubbing moments in the Sex and the
City franchise, which was famously launched as a column by
the New York Observer a sister publication of YUE, before it
went on to conquer a wide-ranging TV audience and movie go-
ers, including many in China. For the business-minded travel-
ers, we asked experts to parse through a dynamic spectrum of
the real estate opportunities in New York and its vicinity that
would be interesting investments.
Being the cultural center of the United States, New York
boasts the most diverse oerings and attracts the most versatile
creative minds. To make our reader at home, as part of our At
Home in New York with . . . series, we asked China-born concert
pianist Lang Lang to share with us what it means to be a symbol
of the youth and the future of China and his secret way of mak-
ing New York his home.
With China catching a fever for collecting art and cultural
relics from the past, we are taking you to Chinas cultural trea-
sures currently on display in New York City, including The Art
of Dissent in 17th-Century China show at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art and a special photography exhibition about Chi-
nas Empress Dowager Cixi (1835-1908) at the Arthur M. Sackler
Gallery in Washington D.C.
Many people who have recently visited China felt its electri-
fying speed of transformation and optimism. It is simply one of
the most energetic places on earth. New York attracts the Chi-
nese travelers precisely for its untamed enthusiasm for life and
curiosity for new things. And you have brought your unique
brand of energy to this city.
We look forward to hearing about your visits to New York
City and how YUE has played a role in your adventures. When
you do write, please let us know which part of China you come
from. We hope you will return to see us soon!

Sex and the City was a worldwide
phenomenon, but the source of its
genius is found only in New York City.
Following in the footsteps of the famous
foursome from the critically acclaimed
Sex and the City series, you will
undoubtedly feel like a million bucks
as you pass the posh storefronts that
embellish the streets of Manhattan.
From its humble beginnings as a
column by Candace Bushnell in The
New York Observer, an affiliate of YUE
magazine, Sex and the City became a
hit HBO television series that ran for
six seasons until 2004 and was followed
by two feature films. Now its a pop-
culture fixation for millions of Chinese
young adults; a popular spin-off bar,
Sex and Da City, has two locations in
Beijing that opened to much success
and hype.
By tackling contemporary issues,
Sex and the City is an empowering vision
for a new generation of independent
Chinese women who believe in the
value of personal glamour, self-value,
and the passionate pursuit of life in the
city. And Manhattan, often known as
the fifth lady of Sex and the City, has
plenty of clout in China. In the opening
moments of the first Sex and the City
movie, Carrie intones that women
come to New York to look for labels
and love, and indeed, the celebrated
brands and restaurants of Manhattan
are where all the magic happens in the
fabulous lives of Carrie and her friends.

Though the $60,000 salary Carrie
presumably made as a columnist does not
logically explain her extraordinary shopping
sprees, it did not keep her away from
Christian Louboutin, whose store on the
Upper East Side is where any self-proclaimed
shopaholic should begin her journey.
Along your leisurely gambol down the
UES youll pass Jimmy Choo (645 5th Ave.
and 716 Madison Ave.) and Barneys (575 5th
Ave.), two of Carries favorite places. At last
youll reach your home away from home, the
Plaza Hotel, the pearl of New York history.
This is the setting for the unforgettable, tear-
jerking Carrie line alluding to a scene in the
movie The Way We Were when she saw
Mr. Big with his fianc Your girl is lovely,
Hubbell.
In addition to the glitz, the convenience
of the hotel cannot be denied. Located in
the heart of New York, the Plaza sits at the
crossroads of 58th Street and 5th Avenue.
Shopping can happen at nearby Tiffanys
(maybe for an engagement ring sported by
Charlotte) and Bergdorf Goodman, providing
a beautiful start to this glamorous journey
down the famed Fashion Avenue. Also in the
vicinity is the Louis Vuitton flagship store
(1 E. 57th St.), which brings to mind Carries
personal assistant, Louise, who arrived from
St. Louis looking for true love and ended up
finding her first Vuitton bag and labels. Dont
forget to check out the Fendi store down the
block, where Carrie pleaded with a robber to
spare her Manolo Blahnik strappy sandals:
Theyre my favorite pair. I got them half
price at a sample sale. But when the robber
went away with her purple sequined Fendi
Baguette, the world seemed to come to a
complete stop.

Of course, no Sex and the City experience
would be complete without a stop at Manolo
Blahnik, across from MoMA, to ogle the sky-
high status symbols in shoe lovers paradise.
Youll be pleased to know that Mr. Blahnik
has figured out the secret to a comfortable
heel, so if you do pick up a pair, you can wear
them straight out of the shop as you continue
down Fifth Avenue.
Up next are the Soho boutiques, including but not limited to Dolce
& Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, Prada, and Chanel. (Somehow, risk-taking
Carrie, play-it-safe Charlotte, and man-eating Samantha all shared
a love for the Chanel handbag.) Not far from Soho, youre likely to
spot fashion heavyweights like Stella McCartney and Diane von
Furstenburg. Behind glass doors, where Carrie asked Samantha to be
her maid of honor, DVF contains the fashionistas ultimate desires.
Dont miss out on a chance to sit on the same red plush chair Carrie
did. At this point, your four-inch Manolo Blahniks may be slowing
you down after all. You can rest at Buddakan (75 9th Ave.), the chic
family-style restaurant where Carrie and Mr. Big celebrated their
rehearsal dinner and shared the last single girl kiss. And if you dont
mind attention, you may have your own version of Carries rehearsal
dinner by reserving the showpiece table in the downstairs Chinoiserie
room, which has hosted such A-listers as Bill Clinton, Tyra Banks,
Emma Stone, Brooke Shields, and Sylvester Stallone. The limit at the
showpiece table is 37, but that wont stop your fun. The city is full of
ways to be just like Charlotte, Miranda, Samantha, and Carrie.

TICK TOCK
WITH A TWIST
By Keith W. Strandberg
The era of the outrageous, over-the-top watch isnt over by any stretch of
the imagination. But watch lovers are again focusing on the tried and true.
Established companies like Patek Philippe, Harry Winston, and Piaget have
classic and traditional in their DNA, and they wont disappoint customers
looking for timeless pieces. At the same time, a new guard has arrived with
lines of traditional-looking wristwear with contemporary ornaments, finishes,
and special elements. These companies, like Chanel and Ralph Lauren,
offer a unique twist on traditional timekeeping.

A unique combination of traditional watchmaking and
modern design, the newest watch in the Millenary col-
lection from Audemars Piguet was designed to be a see-
through timepiece, though nothing in the movement
has been skeletonized. In fact, the most visual elements
of the in-house mechanical movement were moved to
the dial side of the watch, so there is no need to turn
the timepiece over to admire the workings. 12 bridges
of the movement are visible through the sapphire crys-
tal, each of them decorated in very traditional ways
(horizontal Ctes de Genve, circular graining; and
snailing). This elegant and modern watch is available in
either stainless steel or pink gold.

peater is one of the rarest and most respected watch complications avail-

sounds playful, but it is, in fact, one of the most di cult horological feats,
especially in such a small case (33.70mm).

Its dramatic mix of colors, materials, and

bold forms makes de Grisogonos jew-
elry highly recognizable. The jewelers
founder, Fawaz Gruosi, has never been
one to follow trends, and he is credited
for bringing black diamonds back into
fashion. Film stars and models clamor
to wear his jewelry, which is really no
surprise. One of his rst rings combined
blackened white gold, yellow gold, South
Sea white pearls, and 120 black diamonds
a stunner that caught the attention of jewelry
lovers the world over.
Shown here is a collection

created with carved white
chalcedony, rubellite,
diamond, emerald, pearl,
tourmaline, and pink sapphire.
Piagets jewelers have outdone themselves

this year with the Limelight Garden Party
collection, which includes ivy, cherry blos-
som, foliage, and bird themes. This unusual
mix of precious and semiprecious stones re-

ring, earrings, and matching secret time-

ing Bulgaris signature Serpenti
timepiece. This stunning bracelet
watch comes in an 18-carat and dia-
mond and pink gold, with full pav
diamonds on the dial and hands.
The 18-carat pink gold bracelet has
seven loops (it is also available with
fewer) and is worn together with
a pair of Bulgaris earrings in yel-
low gold with 15.86 carats worth
of rubies and 2.04 carats of round
brilliant-cut diamonds.
Photographed here is one of Van Cleef and Arpels diamond
and ruby necklaces, with the jewelers famous mystery set-
ting that was invented in 1933. This unique invention (previ-
ously called the invisible setting) is achieved by conceal-
ing the prongs beneath the gems they hold, accentuating
the gemstones and enabling the jeweler to form sensual con-
tours that create a three-dimensional eect.

Our goal is to show the best of China alongside the best of
every other culture in the world, Dr. Maxwell K. Hearn, head
of the Metropolitan Museum of Arts Asian art department,
says as we stand in one of the more than 50 galleries the
museum devotes to his field. We have a truly encyclopedic
collection.
Founded in 1870 by wealthy New York patrons, the Met
had begun collecting Asian art by 1879, and has continued to
do so ever since. Its holdings now stretch from early Neolithic
stone and clay pieces to the present. We are very proud to
present a very full picture of the arts of China from beginning
to end, Dr. Hearn, a 40-year veteran at the museum, says.
The museums earliest Chinese acquisitions came from
the decorative arts. Mimicking their European counterparts,
New York collectors made a run for fine porcelain, displaying
works next to European Old Master paintings they were
buying at the same time. Examples of those ceramics
including some copies produced in Europe at the timeline
the hallways that lead to the Asian art wing along the
museums central Great Hall.
Entering the first Chinese art gallery, one encounters a
14th-century wall mural depicting Buddha that stretches
more than 49 feet wide and stands 24 feet high. That work,
which was once housed in a temple in the Shanxi province,
was acquired from C. T. Loo, a well-known Chinese art dealer.
Even after 700 years, its water-based pigments continue to
hold remarkable details.

There are sculptures here as well, including

smooth and elegant stone sculptures of the
Bodhisattva from the 5th century that were once
covered with polychrome pigment. The Mets
collection was really formed in the teens and
20s, Dr. Hearn says, when China was exporting
these objects to an avid Western audience, after
the start of the Chinese republic. Collectors like Rockefeller,
Altman, and Morgan snapped them up, noticing their
similarity to Romanesque work.
Next in the tour comes a large room of archaeological
pieces dating as early as the Neolithic period. Look at
this, at what they could do with clay, Dr. Hearn says
excitedly, motioning toward a charcoal-black clay pot
with thin slits in its body. Its perforated, it has a lip
thinner than your mothers tea cup, and its 4,000
years old.
Long shelves filled with bronzes line the room.
The Chinese Bronze Age is one of the great
periods of art production, and theres no finer
casting of bronze in any culture than China, Dr.
Hearn says.
More than 300 objects ranging from the
epic to the quirky fill this archaeology-themed
room, and days could easily be spent here.
A large bronze ritual altar table from 1100
B.C., complete with various cups and wine
vessels, is one highlight, the only known
surviving suite, according to Dr. Hearn.
It would have been used in rituals to pay
tribute to ancestors, who were believed to
influence contemporary events.

The Chinese painting galleries, the largest of such display spaces
outside China, are dimmer and more relaxed than most other spaces in
the museum. Since Chinese paintings are incredibly fragile and sensitive
to light, painted most often on silk or paper, the museum rotates its
permanent galleries every six months. Were constantly doing new
exhibitions, the curator says, grinning.
On view through January 2, 2012, The Art of Dissent in 17th-Century
China focuses on art made by Ming loyalists after the fall of their dynasty
to invading Manchu tribesmen in 1644. Many in the ruling class sacrificed
themselves as martyrs, while others endured the humiliation by being
part of a society sustaining the occupying Manchus. They
painted brushy landscapes and lived away from the
cities, refusing to support the ruling regime.
In galleries above the main Chinese spaces there
are rooms devoted to scholars rocks, lacquer, and
textilesrefreshed every four monthsas well
as hardstones, metal work, and a trove of jade,
much of which the museum acquired in 1902
from private collection.
The Mets great strength, as Dr.
Hearn noted at the beginning of
our tour, is its encyclopedic
nature: Curators can
tell stories that bring
together vast swaths
of history, including
the story of historic
migrations.
For instance,
sculpture from
the Tang Dynasty
has a lesson for us
today. When China
is powerful, its able
to absorb foreign
influences, Dr. Hearn
continues. Todays China
is in transition right now,
the department head says as
he walks us out of one of the many
Asian galleries and into the museum
halls. Were moving from a period when
foreign domination was not so far behind them to a period
in which theyre really flexing their muscles. I think great
things are going to come.

The Empress Dowager Cixi, who presided over the decline of Imperial
China, is often seen as a larger-than-life symbol of a darker time in
Chinas past. This fascinating exhibition at the Sackler Gallery in
Washington, D.C. (a branch of the renowned Smithsonian Institute) gives
an unprecedented look inside the world of the Empress Dowager as she
sought to retain her grasp on a dying empire.
After a long period of decline culminating in the failed Boxer
Rebellion of 1901, Beijing came under foreign occupation. Reparations for
extravagant war expenses crippled the Imperial government. Reviled by
her people and at the mercy of unsympathetic Western governments, the
Empress Dowager Cixi sought desperately to remake her image. Reversing
centuries of traditional ethnic separation, the empress commissioned an
amateur photographer, Xunling, to take a number of portraits. Taken
in 1903 and 1904, the pictures are a carefully choreographed attempt to
present an image of a pious, cosmopolitan, cultured ruler and a radical
departure from social norms.

The show is designed to give a real sense of what the

photographs were trying to achieve. In each of the four
exhibition rooms, a different story is told and another facet of
the empress is revealed. In the first space, titled Throne, Cixi
is pictured seated on a low, exquisitely carved chair, dressed in
finely decorated silk robes with the long, sharpened fingernail
covers that have come to caricature the decadence and
callousness of the Empress Dowager. In each of the pictures,
she wears different ceremonial robes and hairstyles, each of
which would have taken at least half a day to prepare. (The
limitations of early photographythe scenes were chronicled
outside to better capture lightmeant these shoots took weeks
to complete.)
In line with her desire to cast off perceptions of insularity, there are
hints at Western influences (a French table in the Louis XIV style, cloth
from British India, a bowl full of apples taken from common European
artistic traditions) as well as nods to Chinese cultural heritage. Exquisitely
embroidered golden butterflies and other symbols of longevity are
exuberantly placed throughout the portraits. Notable are a lack of dragon
robes, typically considered the ultimate sign of Imperial rule. Its speculated
that at a time of intense pressure and scrutiny, she wished to promote her
power in her own right, and the status these robes denoted was conferred
only by her male relations.
In the second room, Diplomacy, the message is far more direct and
unambiguous. A story unfolds of a sustained (and rather effective) outreach
campaign embarked upon by the Chinese Court. The Empress Dowager
concentrated much of her effort on the United States, charmed by what
she perceived as sympathy among the other, more critical, foreign powers.
In the most obvious gesture of outreach to her foreign occupiers, Cixi had
pictures taken of herself holding hands with Sarah Pitt Conger, wife of the
U.S. ambassador to China. In a scene unimaginable even two years before,
this symbol of friendship between the nations gained the affection of Mrs.
Conger, encouraging her to become a vocal
supporter of the empress. But this was not the
only gesture of goodwill to the Americans. A
close-up portrait of the Empress Dowager
was sent to President Theodore Roosevelt
and another one was later given to Roosevelts
daughter Alice. In an amusing form of early
airbrushing, Cixi was given a primitive
facelift, performed by pulling her skin back
and using special lights to eradicate shadows.

The room titled Private Moments is a look
behind the veil of official court life. Taken for the
personal enjoyment of the empress, these photos
give a deeper understanding of the photographer,
Xunling, and the entire Ling family. The son of a
Manchu nobleman and a half Han, half American
mother, he owes his place in history to his father,
an influential diplomat. Xunlings sister, Der Ling,
became Cixis intermediary, interpreter (she
reportedly spoke eight languages), and adviser on
foreign affairs. In an intimate set of photographs
that seem almost like family portraits, she is
shown in the Summer Palace gardens with
Empress Dowager Cixi, scenes in the snow
remarkable for their informality and lack of pomp. Der Ling later traded on her
former position in the United States as a self-styled princess, writing eight books
about her time as the empresss right hand. These photographs legitimize her
claims. So central were these images to Der Lings identity that when she died,
the negatives were clutched in her hands.
In the last set of photographs, Tableaux: The Power of Play, the Empress
Dowager is shown in a series of theatrical and religious poses. The pictures
contain subtle allusions to her politics, a culmination of her attempt at
establishing legitimacy. Empress Cixi was an avid fan of theatrethere were even
rumours that she performed in some productionsso included in the exhibit is
a series of photographs recreating the classic play Peony Pavilion. It is perhaps
no coincidence that this play was the official commemoration of her seventieth
birthday; one gets the impression of an attempt to cling to her youth.
The most striking feature of the exhibition is the photos relaxed, almost
informal feel. Although they are highly orchestrated, in many pictures the
empress appears at easein one she leans back with her legs crossed, while
in another she stands laughing at a joke made by a eunuchconveying
the empresss human side. As a marker of the end of Imperial China, these
photographs are an invaluable piece of Chinese cultural heritage.

LANG LANG IN NEW YORK

Lang Lang has often been introduced
as not needing an introduction. The
unabashed performer complements
his technique on the piano with a
sense of humor and love of life which
has propelled him to international
fame, a source of inspiration for
many.
Heralded as, the hottest artist on
the classical music planet, by the
New York Times, the 29-year-old
has swept the globe with a glittering
persona and played magical notes
to thousands of mesmerized
international audiences.
If youve ever seen Lang Lang play,
you would know that his onstage
performance is a synesthesia of
visual and auditory pleasure. He
embodies a freshness of spirit every
time he performs, as though he
were a young boy discovering an
instrument for the first time. He sits
tall when the music is declaratory, he
furrows his brows when the music is
ominous, and opens his eyes wide
when the music is surprising. All the
while, his fingers fly from one end of
the keyboard to the other seemingly
beyond any human speed, yet notes
fall delicately from his fingertips.
Anyone watching must eventually
ask themselves the age-old question:
how does he do it?
This young man, who gave his first
public recital at only 5 years old,
entered Beijings prestigious Central
Music Conservatory at age 9, and
won first prize at the Tchaikovsky
International Young Musicians
Competition at age 13, has left no
room for doubt that he has become
a global cultural sensation.

Suave enough to be a character cut from a Fitzgerald novel, Lang Lang

bridges a gap between east and west: his American sensation is not
without a taste of his homeland. Indeed, the sheer size of the volume
of literature devoted to Lang Lang in the Chinese media reveals his
success in building up an iconic status. According to the New York
Times, Lang Lang caused a piano learning frenzy among the Chinese
youth now termed the Lang Lang Effect when he played in the
opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics before a television audience
of 36 million people.
Perhaps what enables Lang Lang to reach so many Chinese is,
ironically, his normalcy. Lang Lang chronicles his life and ambitions
in an autobiography published in 2008, and his experiences resonate
in the lives of many young people growing up in China under the
one-child policy, particularly in the way that his parents sacrificed
everything so that their only child could live out the unfulfilled dream
of their youth. Given the sheer amount of effort and spirit that Lang
Lang put into his musical pursuits, its no matter of wonder that hes
successful.
Lang Lang was taught to breathe piano since he was a toddler in
China. His mother played classical music to him while he was in her
womb and recognized talent when he was 6.5 months old (finally, a
myth that works!) When he was 9, his father quit his job to devote his
energy to the sole purpose of making his son the best piano player in
the world.
But nowadays, Lang Lang has reclaimed his early experiences
with the piano as his own and he cites an endearing source for his
musical inspiration. When he was young, he loved to watch cartoons,
particularly the American show Tom and Jerry. In fact, it was while
watching an episode where Tom dresses up and plays composer
Franz Liszts Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 that Lang Langs sage with
classical music was born.
That indeed was my first exposure to western
music and I fell in love with it at the very beginning,
Lang Lang tells YUE Magazine.
But Lang Langs family often had to struggle and
success was not an easy word. In 1996, when Lang Lang
was 14, his father had to borrow money to fly them
both out to the U.S. and audition for Philadelphias
Curtis Institute of Music. The teenager was able to
win over the praise and subsequent mentorship of
the pianist Gary Graffman, then President of the
Institute. However, he had to leave behind his parents,
not knowing when hed next see them. Still, it paid
off when Lang Lang was introduced to Christoph
Eschenbach, the Musical Director of Chicagos
Ravinia Festival, at the end of two years of study and
asked to perform at Chicagos Ravinia Festival. A few
years later, at the extremely young age of 21, Lang
Lang ascended into the upper echelons of the classical
music world by performing a solo debut at Carnegie
Hall that propelled him to fame, and made the rest of
his life part of recorded history.

When Lang Lang isnt performing in front of sold-out audiences around the
globe, he lives in a luxury apartment he bought in New York City. Lang Lang
informed YUE that ever since he first settled here, hes thought of New York as
his home in America. He has the vibrant passion of a true New Yorker when he
speaks of the city.
It is no doubt is the center of the world with everything, it is such a diversified
city, you feel like youre in a movie or a dream when here, he says.
True, one could reside within the total 23 square miles of Manhattan and take
up a hundred, a thousand different lives. And Lang Lang, who is always jovial,
certainly has his favorite haunts.
I love the Chelsea area and Central Park as well. There are a lot of amazing
restaurants, you can easily find something appetizing. He also has a few
recommendations for the casual visitor. Take a walk in Central Park, go see a
fashion show, and then have a party with friends. That would be a perfect day in
NYC.
Of course, Lang Langs own busy schedule doesnt allow him much time for
himself. Averaging 120 concerts per year, Lang Lang has performed at several
major venues, including The BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall in London,
the opening night of this years Carnegie Season in New York, and on Chinese
national television (by playing with an apple in hand, no less), all in the last two
months.
A world-traveler both physically and metaphorically, Lang Lang is equally
comfortable in the world of classical music and the world outside it. He told YUE
that he found inspiration in classical musicians such as Christophe Eschenbach
and Charles Dutoit, as well as non-classical musicians like Herbie Hancock and
Paul McCartney. When he listens to music, his favorite piece varies according
to mood and occasion: I listen to all kind of music, besides classical music, jazz,
R&B, HipHop, etc. Also, I always listen to my live recording in concert, it is the
best way to find out where to make progress on my music.
With his spiked hair and expressive sense of fashion style, Lang Lang has
garnered much attention for his sartorial choices. I do follow the fashion world,
attending some of the fashion shows if I have time. Id love to design my clothes
someday, but there are so many great designers whom I admire and love, he
says.

Lang Langs ample skills are complemented by an equally ample,

and aware heart, and even as his status in the musical world grows,
he will likely focus on growing musical opportunities for the next
generation.
The young maestro has already positioned himself as a teacher of
the next generation of young pianists. Lang Langs genuine concern
for childrens musical education around the globe can be seen in
his charitable efforts through classical music. In 2004, he was the
youngest person to be appointed as the International Goodwill
Ambassador to UNICEF. In this role, he made his first trip to Africa to
play music with children living with HIV and malaria and still speaks
of this experience as one of the most memorable days of his life. In
2008, the virtuoso launched the Lang Lang International Music
Foundation in New Yorks Town Hall, to support talented youths
in pursuing a career in music or simply to use music to discover
something magical within themselves and expand their enjoyment of
life.
It is the right time to do something in return to society and to the
young generation, they are the future of the world, he says.
The facts of Lang Langs life confirm his own firm belief that music can
serve as a powerful channel to bring people together across national and
cultural divisions and preach a message of inspiration and acceptance.

Say good-bye to the suit and tiethis fall saw the epic return of the
tuxedo. At this years Golden Globes and Emmys, the red carpets
were all about the black tie, with Johnny Depp, Alec Baldwin,
and many others sporting the classy suit.
The tuxs legacy goes back to the 1860s, when the
Vanderbilts, Astors, and Morgans made the garment a
staple of New Yorks Gilded Age. Its history is documented
in Tuxedo Park: Lives, Legacies, Legends by Chinese
author Chiu Yin Hempel, who resides in the area.
When millionaire James Potter brought the tailless
informal smoking jacket back from England (where
he saw it made by the tailor Henry Poole & Co. for
the Prince of Wales) it was a hit with the fellows
of the Tuxedo Park Club, the residential
country club of New York Citys elite. Curious
onlookers gave the strange suit worn with
these prominent men its name.
Today, the Tuxedo has arrived,
fashionably late, on the runway,
appeaing in the Fall 2011 collections
of Tom Ford, Armani, Ferragamo,
Hugo Boss, and Gucci. And Brooks
Brothers reports that its tuxedo
sales rose 5 percent each season
this year and have increased
gradually from 3 percent to
4 percent in recent years.
Todays tux is not only for
the well-heeled. With
off-the-rack styles and
made-to-measure
services from Gucci,
Tom Ford, Zegna,
Ralph Lauren,
and Brioni,
youll be the
man of the
hour in no
time.

MADE TO MEASURE
Picking out a tuxedo is hard enough;
getting your ideal fit is even harder. These
luxurious brands offer made-to-measure
services at boutiques all over the city, so
youre guaranteed to look your very best.
Zegna, the number-one menswear brand in
China, is a force to be reckoned with. These
cool tuxedos, available in navy and black,
have a textured sheen that is both slimming
and modern. The one-button jacket can be
worn as a regular suit or dressed up with a
tie.
If you prefer to keep it simple, look to
Ralph Lauren. The Bronx-born New York
City designer, best known for inventing the
preppy Polo, offers a wide variety of tuxes.
The designers stand-out piece features a
classic peak lapel that is both powerful and
elegant. We can only imagine that this is
what the men of Tuxedo Park looked like 150
years ago.
Brioni has become the hallmark of made-
to-measure tuxedos in New York City. This
houses fine Italian tailoring is considered a
ritual in perfection. There are three steps,
one Brioni employee says: one measurement
and two fittings. After the first measurement
we send the garment to Italy. It comes back to
us and we finish it here. No rush orders are
permitted. But the six- to eight-week process
is well worth it.
New York City continues the history of
the tuxedo. Who knew the once-informal
smoking jacket would become a symbol of
affluence? All thats certain is that the man
who wears it will evoke its powerful legacy.

OFF THE RACK
Not sure if the classic ensemble
suits your personal style?
From classic to modern, youll
find a look that suits you. Gucci
offers the most contemporary,
sleek style: a black wool mohair
with a satin contrast trim and
front slash welt pockets. The
sharper lapels give the jacket a
sophisticated edge.
Tom Ford, Guccis former
creative designer and now
notable designer of his
eponymous label, puts his
own twist on the tux. For the
man who isnt afraid to make
a splash, these velvet jackets
in punchy tones like purple,
magenta, and blue paired with
a satin side-paneled black pant
are both refined and fun.

For a stylish edge, add a touch of glitz to
traditionally sophisticated, chic eveningwear.
This fall Ralph Lauren takes its inspiration
from the Orient, making ample references
to the Shanghai glamour of the 1920s and
1930s with jade and coral earrings and scarlet
heels. This velvety asymmetrical gown with
shiny beaded accents is a subtle way to stay
on trend. The House of Alexander McQueen
is producing stunning pieces on the heels of
a wildly popular posthumous retrospective
of its namesake designer at the Costume
Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of
Art and of dressing Kate Middleton for the
British royal wedding. The labels white gown,
covered in a mosaic of broken pieces of fine
china at the bodice and a whimsical froth of
organza. The gown is unusually serene for the
McQueen line, but spectacularly beautiful
nonetheless. New Yorkbased Oscar de la
Renta never disappoints with his opulent and
flashy designs, having dressed Manhattans
society ladies for charity and opening galas for
decades. Keeping his eveningwear simple and
elegant without losing trademark arresting
appeal, this fiery red dress with bursting
chiffon ruffles is eye-catching and effortless.
If youre looking to go all-out, its Puccis
svelte black dress with golden embroidery.
The daringly chic dress covers up to the neck
but stirs excitement by revealing a bit of leg.
dIOr
Lace is autumns little mood ring, ready to
change for any occasion. When paired with
the perfect cocktail dress its sure to create
bliss. On catwalks, the fabric was like clay for
each designer to leave their own impression
on. Christian Dior keeps it dark and sheer for
a more seductive Gothic look. The holiday
palette is full of yellows, oranges and purples,
and Italian label Bottega Venetta keeps it
prim yet modern with a vibrant red cocktail
dress layered under floral lace. A simple
houndstooth print with a popping orange
jacket is an easy way to get noticed while
keeping a minimalist style. If structure is
your forte, Louis Vuitton balances his hard-
edged fall collection with delicate lace pieces,
with a 60s-inspired puff-sleeve dress. But
if your style is as exciting as your nightlife,
feathers might be your friend. Versaces sunny
yellow feathered cocktail dress with a halter
twist neckline make this new eye-catching
trend wearable and chic. For a timeless
look, Fendis beautifully constructed wool
dress with oversized ruffle embellishment
contrasts intricate cuts with transparent
chiffon dotted with sequins that flow down
the arms.

Personal Shopping final.indd 70 11/7/11 4:12:05 PM

By Sasha Levine
Im going to tell you your story are
probably not the first words youd
expect to hear in the dressing room
at a store. But in the master suite of
Bergdorf Goodmans personal shop-
ping department, veteran fairy godmother
Elaine Mack whips the inner world of her cli-
ents into sartorial shape.
In truth, its hard to imagine Mrs. Macks 4-foot-
11-inch frame supporting the weight of a silky Oscar
de la Renta ball gown, stacks of Akris cashmere
sweaters, and a Jason Wu lace-trim parka carried in
her arms from the stockrooms to the fourth floor.
But at seven in the morning, Mrs. Mack is preparing
her dressing rooms with the crme de la crme.
By nature, personal shopping is an intimate af-
fair, and as Mrs. Mack well knows, women bring
things in here that they dont even bring to their
psychiatrists. After one session, clients prance
out with equal doses of psychoanalysis, gossip, and
retail therapy.
Shopping in Saks Fifth Avenues flagship
store in New York can be like getting lost in
Wonderland. With hundreds of different design-
ers and 10 sprawling floors to shop, walking just
the main level can be dizzying. Luckily, the Saks
Fifth Avenue Club offers top-notch personal shop-
ping services. Regardless of your personal style,
the consultants at Saks can revitalize your closet
by pulling together a completely contemporary
wardrobe or assembling one outfit for a Cinderella
night and an opportunity to save your time and
your sanity. Call ahead to make an appointment
with one of the 18 consultants to continue perfect-
ing your personal style.
Like most personal-shopping experiences, the
process starts with a series of get-to-know-you
questions, including whether you work, the type
of career you have, whether you have children, and
if youre a stay-at-home mom. The answers you
provide help your personal shopper get an idea of
what your everyday wardrobe needs will be. She
might also ask how often you attend dinner par-
ties and whether you travel on the weekends so she
can better assess what your more festive alter ego
looks like.

Once your
personal shop-
per gets a feel
for what youre
looking for, you
have the choice
of finding action
on the floor or
being whisked
away into a pri-
vate fitting room.
In this quiet, sun-
lit suite, the only
finger you have to
lift is the pinky you raise as you sip
your latte. A true gift of this service
is that they navigate the immensity
of the store so you dont have to. In
addition to your personal shop-
per, youre joined in your suite by a
team of alteration experts, a shoe
repair service, and shoe shiners at
your beck and call. And just in case
getting gussied up in the middle of
a crowded room isnt your idea of a
good time, you can get a prim and
pretty beauty consultation
in the comfort of your own
room, too.
But when it comes to
browsing behemoths,
Bloomingdales makes
personal shopping
simply a must. With
a store the size of
an entire Upper
East Side block,
Bloomingdales ex-
pands its At Your
Service program
beyond clothing
to home, bath,
and gift shopping.
The team of cross-
trained consul-
tants pulls items
from kitchen to
closet. No mat-
ter the day of the
week, their staff
is ready to pam-
per by appoint-
ment or at the last
minute. Theyll
even keep track of
important dates in
your life and get in
touch with gift sug-
gestions as birth-
days, anniversaries,
and special occasions
approach.
Though Barneys may be best
known for its window displays, its
the one Midtown hotspot set apart
from the Midtown traffic heat.
Besides being the nerve center of
fashion, its quite the place to see
and be seen. It certainly carries
whats up and coming, includ-
ing Lanvin, AlexandrePlokhov,
and DuroOlowu. And when every
Goyard tote is entirely customiz-
able in the lobby boutique, its clear
that Barneys puts its own spin on
personal shopping from the mo-
ment you step in the door.
For the ultimate in grandeur,
Bergdorf Goodmans fourth floor
is where the elite are dressed by
the woman who knows what to
wear. Before her clients even set
foot in the lap of luxury, Mrs. Mack
conducts a comprehensive phone
interview to uncover the truth
about her client. By the time you
arrive in your private room, you
step into a store designed just for
you. Whether you stay for the
day or for an hour, Bergdorfs
will satiate your every need
with a complimentary
lunch, snack, or cocktail.
Other amenities include
an opulent husbands
chair, with a telephone
and Internet access,
in case you bring
your beau.
Though each
stores personal-
shopping experi-
ence offers some-
thing special, they
all boast a multi-
lingual staffper-
haps the biggest
perk for visitors.
Of the hundreds
of associates
working these
four shopping
emporia, there are
both Cantonese-
and Mandarin-
speaking team
members on call.
But as Mrs. Mack
kindly reminds
with a warm smile,
Clothing is a uni-
versal language.
You dont have to say
a word; you just have
to look in the mirror.

EYES
A lot of color around the eyes, purple and blue eyeliners that are soft, said
Kim Do about her holiday beauty tips for her best clients. Those look very
nice on almond shaped eyes, she added with a smile.
Ms. Do is a VIP make-up artist who keeps her clients looking beautiful,
especially around the holiday time when the parties abound. You can make
the application as severe or as light as you want, she explained. Severity is
important because extremes are in this season, with designers like Oscar
de la Renta sporting neutral lips and warm eye shadows on the runway,
and Vena Cava making a scene with extreme dramatic eyes and red hot lips
during New York Fashion Week.
The well-respected New York City makeup artist has powdered the
cheeks of Hollywoods finest, from Kim Cattrall to Molly Sims and even
President Barack Obama.
The makeup trends for fall are richer colors like eggplant, bronze and
grey, Miss Do explained. To achieve that smokey eye, she recommends
some of her favorite products, Black Violet Limitless Eyeliner by Smashbox,
which can be softly applied and smudged. Its beautiful on almond shaped
eyesand the Grey Jacquard eyeshadow palette by Giorgio Armani, the
colors can be used individually or blended together for day or evening.
Cliniques Lid Smoothie Eye Shadow is also great for a gentle show-stopping
eye. The shadow is rich and creamy, and available in velveteen, earthy colors
like Born Freesia and Sassy-Fras. For a more dramatic lid, Bobbi Browns
Metallic Long-Wear Cream Shadow comes in baby pastel colors, like Pink
Oyster and Surfan angelic sky blue. Este Lauders new Pure Color
Cyber Eyes limited edition eyeshadow creates a first-ever techno tri-blend
formula thats gel, powder and liquid in one. It uses metallic colors (available
in 6 shades) to achieve futuristic, cyber smoky effects, transcending
traditional eyeshadow formulas.
A good eyelash curler is one thing my Asian customers always come in
for, one Sephora makeup artist added, she recommended Urban Decays
High Performance Lash Curler. That and a good eyebrow filler since they
tend have more sparse hair there. Products like Anastasias Perfect Brow
pencil, which both highlights, fills-in and shapes the brow, and Diorshow
Brow Styler Ultra-Fine Precision Brow Pencil are great for sharp definition
and severity. You can also use Thi Lush lashes to punctuate the eyes, sais
Ms. Do. False eye lashes do wonders and make women look and feel more
beautiful and glamorous. They are a must!
For Ms. Do, cheeks and lips range from warm neutral tones in products like Fresh Pink, a waterproof
aqua cream by Makeup Forever, which can be used on lips and cheeks and applied with finger tips
or brushes, to cool tones, True Blue, an Auvergne jumbo lip crayon by Nars, which glides on
smoothly and is moisturizing. For a bolder, brighter lip Lancomes LAbsolu Rouge comes in a
range of punchy red hues.
Sanguine colored lips are another new trend according to the Sephora makeup artist, Deep, wine-
looking lips were all over Guccis Fall Ready-to-Wear collection, she said. Givenchys Rouge Interdit
Satin Lipstick line in Lune Carmin is a svelte feminine, but still adventurous, burgundy wine. To
highlight the cheeks without adding color, try Yves Saint Laurents Touche Eclat, a luminizing pen that
brightens the complexion. While extremes are in on the runway, Miss Do leaves her clients with some
parting sentiments: less is more. For dinner parties and evening events, I recommend playing up one
featureeither eyes or lips and keep the other feature neutral so they arent competing with each other.
But one thing her clients dont compete with is their peers she always leaves them looking best.

Shopping is no frivolity for New
Yorkers, where both stores
and those who fill them are
beautiful. People spend hours
on end during weekends and
vacations scouring stores from
Fifth Avenue to Soho. But
when our ambitions are too big
for our schedulesor for our
stomachsdepartment stores
offer a solution.
BYSASHALEVINE
Soho
If its something sweet youre after, Bloomingdales

has what you need. Whether its the infamously
addictive cupcakes at Magnolia Bakery or the perfect
frozen yogurt at Forty Carrots, recharging with a
midday sugar rush never tasted so good. Though
visitors come for the signature original flavor, plain
Forty Carrots bestseller for more than 30 yearsits
no surprise that coffee comes in a close second with
New Yorkers. While the cute and colorful cupcakes
are popular at Magnolia, those wise enough to try the
banana pudding will be happily rewarded.
If a more upscale take on Americas most
quintessential food seems like a better fit, build
your own burger at Flip. Tucked away in the mens
department on the lower level, this ultramodern
restaurant has the sleek minimalism of an Apple
store. But with six buns, nine patties, twelve sauces,
eight cheeses, and four other toppings to choose
from, the burgers here are anything but minimal:
messy, made to order, and finger-licking good.
For more savory cuisine, inventive Chef
David Burke offers the choice between grab-and-
go at Burke in the Box or a sit-down experience
at Burke Bar Caf. Either way, the menu features
fun gastronomic spinoffs, including The
Huge Dog, a Kobe hot dog with sweet-pepper
relish, sauerkraut, and dijon mustard, and
Crab Cake Sliders with chipotle sauce and
guacamole.

For a glimpse at the lifestyle of New Yorks elite, Bergdorf Goodman

offers shoppers a high-end dining experience at BG. Waiting on the
seventh floor of this venerated designer emporiumdepartment
store feels like a dirty wordis a gorgeous, four-room space, lively with
a mix of suited businessmen, elegant New York regulars, and stylish
shoppers. This white-tablecloth restaurant sports delicate flowers,
antique mirrors, and comfortable high-back leather chairs for those
in need of a luxurious break. With views of Central Park and the bustle
of Fifth Avenue, patrons can watch New York go by as they nibble on
prettily plated dishes at coveted window tables. Though reservations
are recommended during lunch hours, the bar is available for waiting
(and people watching) at any time of day. If the mood calls for more
Zen treatment, a pot of tea at this intimate restaurant is another way to
unwind and reboot. Regardless, it is hard to leave without tasting their
signature Gotham salad, a dish people come far and wide to savor.

For classic cocktails including bellinis, mimosas, or more

appropriately, Manhattans, Bar III in Bergdorfs mens store is the
perfect place for a cosmopolitan experience. With its dark wood,
brown leather, and white marble trimmings, this restaurant provides
a handsome backdrop for a sophisticated if not entirely intoxicating
reprieve. What the convex windows may lack in
vistas of the Big Apple they make up for with views of
attractive male shoppers browsing Chrome Hearts.
If you cant trade a few hours of aisle-cruising for a
leisurely lunch (most of New York is in a hurry anyway)
you can grab snappier, lighter fare, like the Tuna
Nioise salad or the Mixed Vegetable and Mozzarella
wrap, at Bar 5F. A small oasis in the middle of womens
contemporary clothing, those looking to rejuvenate
without leaving their favorite designers behind can
sidle up to the minimalist bar and sip an espresso in
the midst of Sachin + Babi, Nanette Lepore, and Marc
by Marc Jacobs. Its quick, its easy, and its all at your
fingertips.

Blending in with New York fashionistas is best done at Freds Restaurant

in Barneys. This sleek, wood-paneled New York institution is prime for people
watching and apparel envyingluckily, access to trendy, chic styles is only
an elevator ride away. The scent of Neapolitan-style pizzas, fresh pastas, and
classic soups will whet any shoppers appetite, and the hour-long waits prove
its popularity (reservations are highly recommended). If worse comes to worst,
elbowing your way to the long, snaking bar puts you in a good position to snag bits
of gossip from the dishiest diners.
For views of Rockefeller Center and St. Patricks Cathedral that will make
you melt, try Caf SFA, on Sakss eighth floor. The room itself is just as elegant
as the vista, with glistening marble pillars and sleek furniture. Though visitors
rave about the Maryland crab and corn chowder soup, the menu offers a little
something for everyone, including a chicken mandarin salad, a Vidalia onion and
goat cheese quiche, and the horseradish crusted Norwegian salmon.

According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, the relative value of the
Chinese Yuan to the U.S. dollar has increased almost 23 percent since 2001. That
figure indicates both the declining buying power of the U.S. economy and the surge
of Chinese consumers. Logically, as the trend continues, we will see more Chinese
investment in American goods. And historically, theres no American commodity
more precious than real estate.
And what real estate is more prizedor more prohibitively expensivethan New
York Citys most famous borough, Manhattan? Here, international buyers have kept
prices good, and exceptionally high, for many decades.
You see the ebb and flow of the global economy from a unique perspective
when you deal in New York City real estate with international clients, says Amy
Williamson, vice president of sales for Prodigy Network, an international real estate
company based in Manhattan. International buyers keep our market alive . . . its a
fact of this global economy.
But that symbiosis between foreign money and local market
health is now in flux as global economic fires continue to blaze
out of control domestically and throughout Europe. But the
problems in the Eurozone have done no serious damage to the
Yuan, and increasingly active Chinese investors have come to
the forefront of the American real estate scene.
According to a report recently published by the Association
of Foreign Investment in Real Estate, in 2011 New York City real
estate ranks No. 1 as the top global city for foreign investments,
ahead of Washington D.C., London, Paris and Shanghai. In
addition, according to a report published by NuWire Investor,
Chinese buyers accounted for 9 percent of the market of international buyers of
American homes for the 12-month period that ended in March. That figure is almost
double what it was just two years ago and speaks to the alacrity with which Chinese
buyers are growing their share of the U.S. market. Local brokers attest that theyre
as eager to buy in New York.
New York City has always been a favorite of Asian investors, like the Japanese in
the 1980s and so forth, says Michael Chen, an Asian market specialist at Bond, a real
estate firm in New York. In the past five years, the big money coming out of China
has made it easier for Chinese investors.

100 | NOVEMBER
Weve been seeing a steady growth of Chinese buyers locally, says
Stephen G. Kliegerman, president of President of Terra Development
Marketing. Especially over the past year or so.
Larry Kruysman, director of sales at the Aldyn, a new residential tower
on Riverside Drive, reports similar growth. Since we opened in January,
a good percentage of our visitors have been Chinese buyers, he says.
In this climate, local brokers have become more aware of what
attracts the interest of potential Chinese buyers and are developing
marketing plans, transatlantic partnerships and specific client service
skills to better attract, serve and guide Chinese buyers.
Corcoran was looking for years for a way to make inroads into
China, says Gordon Hoppe, senior vice president and director of sales
at Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group. The trend in more Chinese
investment was growing, but how did we capture that?
Mr. Hoppe and his team found their inroad in partnership with
Century21 China aimed at making it easier to buy into New York from
China.
Century21 arranges what Ill call group tours, Mr. Hoppe says. After
acting as a China-based education venue for these prospective buyers,
they can send them over here ready to make educated decisions. He says
that a growing understanding of the mindset held by the Chinese investor
has been invaluable in helping Corcoran grow its sales.
New York City brokers also benefit from deepening their
understanding of what Chinese buyers want in their local investment. As
they do so theyre finding that there are definite common preferences.
Recognizable neighborhoods and new construction are universal
to foreign buyers from any continent, Ms. Williamson says. SoHo is
always desirable, and most international buyers are looking for newer
construction, especially branded real estate like W Residences, or
anything Trump. A Trump SoHo sales representative confirmed to YUE
that 23 percent of closed sales at Trump SoHo have been from Asia, with
the largest number from China.

These buyers definitely seem to prefer newer construction, especially in
neighborhoods that have cache, says Mr. Kliegerman, cited Halsteads new Upper
West Side development 88 Morningside.
New Construction is a key phrase in [their] decision-making, Mr. Hoppe
says of Chinese buyers. And [they] tend to focus very closely on core Manhattan
neighborhoods.
Another consistent theme among Chinese buyers in New York City is the
rationales behind their purchases.
Chinese buyers seem to have a strong desire to buy something for their
family, Mr. Hoppe says. For instance, a number of our clients have purchased
apartments for their children who are studying here. Of course, these properties
are also investments.
Communication is particularly important in managing language and time
issues unique to Chinese investors abroad. It helps potential buyers over there
to feel more comfortable with the market over here by giving Chinese investors
the comfort of working with a domestic firm that we are now partnered with, Mr.
Hoppe says. Its very useful in helping us communicate over here.
Centurion is just one of many new projects making clear bids to woo Chinese
investors. Many other local real estate firms are building infrastructures that
will use the kind of strategies Michael Chen is implementing at Bonds New York
office, whose company is the only New York Citybased real estate firm currently
offering a Chinese-language version of its website and has developed a system
of educating and communicating with their Chinese clients. Carrie Chiang,
Corcorans Senior Vice President with 26 years of experience in the real estate
business, tried to serve her many Chinese clients who have purchased New York
real estate for their personal use or as investment properties with the assistance of
a management company that leases and maintains properties for her clients. We
truly offer one-stop shopping, Ms. Chiang describes her approach to distinguish
her team.
This flurry of activity around a single ethnic group of buyers might mark
the beginning of another chapter in the story of New York City real estate. One
major milestone: SOHO Chinas recent participation in Vornados development of
the large commercial tower the company plans to build over the Port Authority
bus terminal just west of Times Square. The Beijing-based firms investment is
estimated at $500 million to $700 million. Numbers that strong suggest a bright
future for the Chinese in the New York City market.
I dont see this getting weaker at all, Mr. Kruysman says. I only see it
continuing to grow.
