Now the hotel is bringing some Italian sunshine to London, with a residency at Claridge’s restaurant. Chef Michelino Gioia will be cooking some of his specialities including ravioli with butter and sage, veal cheek with chicory and Chianti sauce, and tiramisu, while barman Federico Morosi will mix Pelican Martinis and Teller Negronis, created in homage to Juergen Teller, a former guest of the hotel. Baya Simons BUYGet smart in Anastasia Barbieri’s APC collaborationAPC is known for its collaborations with creatives from across the disciplines; in the past the brand has worked with Catherine Deneuve, Kanye West and Kid Cudi. The latest interaction sees them bring in fashion editor – and HTSI contributor – Anastasia Barbieri, who has created a womenswear collection inspired in part by her love of menswear (“I’ve been wearing men’s suits since I was 17 or 18,” she says), featuring double-breasted blazers in wool gabardine, elegant wide-leg trousers and classic shirts in striped poplin or faded denim. BS BIDOwn some of Iris Apfel’s eyewearIris Apfel became a style icon relatively late in life. It was only after a career as an interior designer – which saw her provide fabrics for nine American presidents’ White House interiors – that she became known for her bold circular spectacles and extravagant colourful outfits. Buyers now have the chance to own a piece of Apfel’s magic through an auction held online at Christie’s. Lots include a selection of those iconic glasses and a life-size wooden ostrich with a drinks bar hidden in its stomach. Louisa McKenzie STAYTake a hike in off-season IbizaGorpGirls is a collective known for championing women in the outdoors with its group hikes, runs and climbs. This month, it joins forces with The Standard hotel in Ibiza for a programme promising both adventure and relaxation. A series of hikes through the island’s gorgeous calas are on offer, and guests can add on yoga classes and massages as they please – as well as trips to a local alpaca farm. Rachel ReesSEEAlvaro Barrington’s sunsets in SeoulThe painter Alvaro Barrington was born in Venezuela, raised between Grenada and New York, and now lives in London. In honour of his peripatetic roots, over the past six years the artist has created a series of works for London’s Notting Hill Carnival, a celebration of Caribbean culture in the city. The paintings he made for the most recent festival – each of which depicts a sun setting over the Caribbean – are now going on show at Thaddaeus Ropac gallery in Seoul. BSBUYMenswear designed for relaxing inInterior designer and antiques dealer Adam Bray has teamed up with clothing designer Toby Feltwell and creative consultants Simon Foxton and Nick Griffiths to create Offering, a new line of “anti-occasion” menswear inspired by vintage textiles and ceramics and designed “to be worn for pleasure and relaxation” according to Bray. Launching exclusively at London’s Dover Street Market this month, the bold pieces include blueberry and buttermilk-striped short sets and tangerine and black-spotted robes, with everything made in Japan from sturdy Japanese cotton and jacquard cloths. Sara SemicBUYBeata Heuman’s perfect paints The London decorator Beata Heuman’s work is often characterised as colourful. But, she says, she and her studio team mostly use light neutrals on walls – “a lot of white, in fact” – and then add colour with accents such as furniture or fabrics. A new collection for the British family-owned paint manufacturer Mylands bears out that philosophy. Titled The Dependables, the majority of the 24 shades are muted, calming tones, interspersed with pops of colour – Crayfish Party-red or cheery Stockholm-blue (Heuman is Swedish by birth), which lend themselves to woodwork or alcoves. As for her favourite colour in the line-up? Beata White, a greyish all-rounder that is the result of years of counselling clients. “People agonise over the right shade of white. What you really need is one reliable white which you can roll out everywhere and move on with your life.” Ellie PithersBUYDo the Eighties, with David Bailey David Bailey’s gritty, documentary-style images of models Jean Shrimpton and Penelope Tree revolutionised fashion photography and helped to define ’60s London. Yet a new monograph from Taschen is a reminder that he was an equally prolific chronicler of the high glamour and flamboyant looks of the ’80s, his irreverent style the perfect foil to the decade’s decadence. From colourful images of Jerry Hall swaddled in furs to lyrical black-and-white portraits, the book – which has an introduction from Grace Coddington – serves as testament to the era’s fun and frivolity while also offering an intimate look at some of its fabled characters. As the photographer writes in the foreword, “the Seventies worked out the chaos of the Sixties. The Eighties turned out to be magic”. SSEATPizza – with a side order of loveSouth London pizzeria Dinner for One Hundred has collaborated with LA chef Nancy Silverton’s Pizzeria Mozza on a singles party. Before the evening guests are required to answer a series of questions about themselves, allowing the team to personally match them with another guest.

Inès CrossGiveRaise funds for Parkinson’s research For the 20th anniversary of Cure Parkinson’s, the charity’s fundraising exhibition Cure3 will be bigger than ever before and feature 117 artists, among them Conrad Shawcross, Mona Hatoum, Frank Bowling and Bruce McLean, who have created works in square, cube or NFT format, populated with everything from neon lights to miniaturised interiors.

Marion WillinghamBUYCurated design at Bergdorf GoodmanFounded in 1899 by a French tailor, Bergdorf Goodman has long been a destination for beautiful things. The New York department store has now partnered with design fair Salon Art + Design on a selling exhibition of objets from its network of galleries. Pieces include tableware made from the sap of a Japanese lacquer tree and a pair of sunshine-yellow Jean Royère “Crapaud” armchairs. ICSEECelebrate young Ukrainian talent in KyivAs Ukraine enters its fourth year of war in February, the PinchukArtCentre Prize celebrates the impressive resilience of the country’s artistic community.

MWBUYSlouchy cashmere sweaters from a famed Scottish hotelBritish designer and Jil Sander alumna Jane Carr has collaborated with Scottish hotel the Fife Arms on a capsule collection of cosy cashmere jumpers, designed to evoke the spirit of the rugged Braemar landscape. Dyed in Scotland and knitted in the Borders, each sweater boasts a slogan (such as “Nae bother”) and deliciously slouchy fit. ICSEEThe ultimate Christina Ramberg exhibitionThirty years on from Christina Ramberg’s death, a new exhibition presents the largest ever overview of her work, from paintings to geometric quilts. Through accumulating images of stockings, skin and meticulously styled hair, the Chicago-based artist’s commentaries on the female body and the expectations imposed upon it remain entirely contemporary. RRBUYMontblanc’s special-edition pen in honour of Enzo FerrariThe latest design in Montblanc’s Great Characters series of pens, which pays tribute to historical figures, was created in honour of automotive designer and driver Enzo Ferrari. The appropriately sleek fountain pen, inspired by the Ferrari 500 racing car, is finished in Giallo Modena yellow, with an automotive grille on the cap and the obligatory prancing horse emblem. The perfect model for those who like to write at speed. Alexander TyndallDOTurn up the bass at Gibson GarageTo celebrate the first birthday of its Gibson Garage showroom and events space in London, the iconic guitar manufacturer is throwing a week-long celebration. There will be live music, courtesy of an all-day acoustic festival on 22 February, plus all manner of new and historic instruments to ogle – including Cream bassist Jack Bruce’s EB-1 bass guitar. Chris AllnuttSEEGet zesty with Ella KruglyanskayaFor her new show at London’s Thomas Dane Gallery, Ella Kruglyanskaya uses the suggestion of action to create drama, painting her protagonists with objects or shadows, drawing on references spanning Magritte, Josef Albers and pop culture from the ’50s and ’60s. In one work an odalisque is surrounded by a curvaceous lute and apples; in another, Manet’s The Dead Toreador is ominously placed next to a sliced lemon and a knife. “I always wanted to excite with a painting,” the Latvia-born, New York-based artist has said. “Action, strong feelings and strong colour seem to be shortcuts to excitement.” Marine Saint
