44 BAL HARBOUR WELCOME NOTE BAL HARBOUR MAGAZINE THIS ISSUE HAS SERVED UP THE glamour and sophistication of the spring season in typical Bal Harbour fashion. My friend and brilliant photographer, Stewart Shining, photographed Kasimira Wilding for our 18-page cover story. The newlywed whose mother once posed for the famous French photographer, Guy Bourdin, convinced her husband Tarquin (Elizabeth Taylor's grandson) to pose for a few shots. The gorgeous couple invites the reader to spend a day in their life as Kasimira effortlessly rocks some of the best spring looks from Chanel, Balenciaga, McQueen, Versace and Ermanno Scervino, to name just a few. For our second cover, the iconic Ruven Afanador captures model Missy Rayder in the season's best whimsical looks adorned with feathers and lace. These covers capture both the spirit of spring and the depth of feeling fashion often evokes. Also in the issue, writer Les Standiford talks with Mitchell Kaplan, the founder of beloved shop Books & Books, about Kaplan's growing production career and their passionate commitment to literature and culture. As serious bookworms ourselves, we were very lucky to have Jacqueline Terrebonne, who previously worked with legendary author and former Gourmet editor-in-chief Ruth Reichl, review Reichl's new book Save Me the Plums, in a nostalgic recollection of their days at Gourmet. Mark your calendars for a reading by Reichl at Books & Books on April 23. Speaking of emotional connection, that's exactly what makes Bal Harbour so special, says the president and CEO of Bal Harbour Shops, Matthew Whitman Lazenby, in Theater of Shopping, Alastair Gordon's story about the prescient vision of Stanley Whitman: "People have emotional connections to Bal Harbour, which is very unique for a shopping center."

It's the art form that speaks most directly to personal expression, and there is endless potential for fashion to translate who we are on the inside to how we present ourselves to the world. It's why we do what we do. Publisher/Editor-in-Chief Sarah G. Harrelson Follow me on Instagram, @sarahgharrelson Publisher/Creative Director Carlos A. Suarez Publisher/Editor-in-Chief Sarah G.
