Contributors 44 BAL HARBOUR DANIÉ GÓMEZ ORTIGOZA, known to her tens of thousands of followers as @journeyofabraid, has been popularizing the inner workings of style in Miami and the world over on her Instagram while working as an activist for women's and Latin American causes. For her first Bal Harbour column "From the Corner of Le Zoo," Gómez Ortigoza muses on the universal experience of style evolution and the power of people watching. New York–based writer KAREN QUARLES always enjoys digging into her subjects' lives— and closets. For Bal Harbour, Quarles interviewed tastemakers Laura de Gunzburg and Roya Sachs about their current obsessions and fall-wardrobe must-haves. "They have such different styles, but they both have incredible taste," says Quarles. "Roya is so fearless about color, and Laura has an amazing eye for the details—her jewelry and accessories are always spot on." Quarles has recently written about fashion and jewelry for Artnet News and the 1stdibs blog, The Study. Former model KEVIN SINCLAIR came to love photography while studying graphic design at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. His innate talent for composition and eye for lighting have made him a regular collaborator for such international titles as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Marie Claire, Glamour, L'Officiel, and Grazia among other outlets. Along with his commissioned work, Sinclair is the editor in chief of the online and print magazine Vestal, which seeks out new talent and nurtures them creatively. Sinclair splits time between New York, Milan, London and Paris. For this issue, he shot model Valentine Bouquet wearing the season's most beautifully-embroidered clothes. PHOTO BY CELIA D.
