Welcome to our Spring Issue! One of the most challenging decisions when editing a magazine is choosing the cover. This issue, however, posed no such challenge. About a month ago, in a daylight studio, the brilliant photographer Thomas Whiteside captured model Debra Shaw, also an icon in her field. She shared stories of runway escapades and captivated the whole set, and the shoot yielded two covers we fell in love with—one with my favorite Balenciaga dress of the season, and the other with a gold Fendi frock that's just begging to be taken for a night out. For our second fashion shoot, frequent Bal Harbour collaborator, the incredible Andrés Oyuela, brought us to Palm Beach's storied Colony Hotel for a dream day filled with fashion—and some room service. The following pages are filled with people committed to creativity and who are passionate about their craft. We are so inspired by Veronica Etro, who tells writer Mackenzie Wagoner about her London club days, which led to the brand 's heady Spring collection—a must add this season. Our new contributor Alessandra Codinha explores Gabriela Hearst's Chloé Craft debut and Lafayette 148's creative director, Emily Smith, invites us into her studio for the latest installment of "In the Atelier." We're also introducing a new column, made up of conversations with visionaries across the fields of design, art and architecture. This issue, we posed an array of questions to Kelly Behun, Asad Syrkett, Janice Parker and Su Wu—all of whom shared inspiration from their daily lives. Writer Enuma Okoro contributes an essay on the importance of being present, spiritual guru Jay Shetty shares how to think like a monk and CFDA-founder Fern Mallis recounts her favorite fashion interviews ahead of her forthcoming book, available at Books & Books in May. As always, I am thankful to our amazing team, and every one of us are proud of these pages. Dive in and let us know what you think. Sarah G.
