STYLE Diary LAURA DE GUNZBURG L aura de Gunzburg was destined to work in the art world. Growing up in art- and antique-filled homes in Paris and New York, the Sotheby's exec honed her eye early on. (Her mother, Nathalie, serves as chairman of the board of trustees at Dia Art Foundation). In her role at the auction house, she focuses on strategic partnerships and on cultivating the next generation of artists. "I'm extremely interested in discovering and supporting emerging artists," she says. Constantly on the prowl for up-and- comers, de Gunzburg can often be spotted at the latest gallery opening or making the rounds at Frieze and Art Basel, among other fairs. And though her passion is evident in all her projects—like founding Dia's Young Contemporary Members Committee—de Gunzburg also manages to make time for other pursuits. "As much as I live and breathe the art world, I also love fashion. I always make sure to leave time for a few shows during New York Fashion Week." —ESS PEARLY WHITES "Lipstick Queen's Hello Sailor goes on clear. The blue pigmentation makes your teeth appear whiter."
