Welcome to the Spring issue of Bal Harbour. There is something about this moment in fashion that feels different to me. It seems like this season's collections are more approachable and inclusive than ever. Take, for instance, our fashion story shot by the brilliant photographer Alexei Hay, who—on his first assignment for Bal Harbour—captures supermodel and cover star Anna Selezneva. The 24-year-old model, who has graced eight international Vogue covers and has paraded down the runway for Chanel, Dior, Saint Laurent and Valentino, to name a few, effortlessly shows off the season's most playful prints (Miu Miu), pantsuits (Stella McCartney), a you-could-live-in plaid shirtdress (Michael Kors) and—my favorite trend—perfectly undone hair. Capturing the allure of Miami's tropical lifestyle, photographer James Macari and our contributing fashion editor Sarah Gore Reeves spent the day on a sleek 54-foot VanDutch yacht where model Bo Don shows off some of the season's best silhouettes. Speaking of fashion photography, this issue serves up some titans of industry. Arthur Elgort, the 74-year-old lensman responsible for some of the fashion world's most indelible images over the last several decades, grants contributing writer Jessica Michault an exclusive interview to discuss the importance of digital photography, shooting supermodel Christy Turlington and his new book, "The Big Picture," which has already taken center stage on my coffee table. We also catch up with the curator behind "Role Play," an exhibition showcasing fashion photographer Steven Meisel, on view now at Phillips in New York. We present an eight-page pictorial featuring some of his iconic images. Also in this issue, contributing writer Lynn Yaeger captures the dizzying power switches of fashion designers in the last year with her signature humor and wit in "Musical Chairs," while iconic designer Norma Kamali opens up to Jessica Michault, and Bee Shapiro lands an exclusive interview with the fashion director and chief fashion critic for The New York Times, Vanessa Friedman. For the men, new contributor David Yi defines the current trends and Mark Ellwood uncovers some collectable watches with a little advice from one of the foremost experts in the world, Aurel Bacs. And because looking your best is only possible when you're feeling your best, Bal Harbour presents a new wellness series this spring.
