We like to keep a well-balanced mix of sources when gathering fashion intel. In this issue, we set out to give you a panoramic view of the Spring season by checking in with supermodels, style setters, socialites, runway fixtures, fashion editors and critics. The 2014 Spring collections bring new excitement and (for the first time in what feels like forever) utterly wearable—dare I say, even inviting—trends. We spent a day on the beach with megamodel Maryna Linchuk as she showcased the alluring whites of the season: from a Tom Ford safari jacket (irresistible) to a flirty Phillip Lim dress and many "Oh, I want that" options in between. Art prints dominated the runways, and who better than Magdalena Frackowiak—the Polish supermodel who's been a magnetic presence on the international runway circuit since 2006—to show us the season's best? Magdalena wears Chanel's sublime print, one of my favorite dresses of the season, on one of this issue's covers. If you want to know what "real people" who are known for their personal style are currently drawn to, see our "Style Diary" featuring Lizzie Tisch, Erika Bearman, Miroslava Duma and Cecilia Dean: these women know how to dress. Also, the recently opened Akris boutique at Bal Harbour Shops is reason enough to celebrate the season, and I am delighted to bring you our exclusive interview with Albert Kriemler, creative head of the global fashion brand. The Swiss-based designer's masterful touch has garnered a following that reads like a who's who list, including Princess Charlene of Monaco. And don't miss our highly-coveted back page, where we pair up two of the brightest minds in fashion: Kate Betts, former editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, and Suzy Menkes, renowned fashion critic for the International New York Times (formerly the International Herald Tribune). Betts talks to the famed journalist about the new digital landscape, style icons and how she defines luxury. Still seeking a dose of inspiration? Just stroll through Bal Harbour Shops and take in the host of visual delights that are sure to galvanize you throughout this season and the next. See you at Bal Harbour!
