New York City’s luxury scene is buzzing with high-profile reopenings, fresh collaborations, and international debuts. Here is the latest guide to the city’s must-see destinations and events.
The Return of Le Veau d’Or
The legendary Upper East Side French bistro Le Veau d’Or, a favorite of icons like Grace Kelly and Jacqueline Onassis since 1937, has officially reopened. Now under the leadership of Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr (the duo behind Frenchette), the restaurant maintains its historic charm and classic three-course prix fixe format ($125). While the menu offers traditional favorites, the beverage program has received a major upgrade, moving from basic house options to an extensive 100-bottle wine list curated by Jorge Riera.
Naturopathica Expands to Midtown
Clean beauty pioneer Naturopathica has launched its third New York City location within The Chatwal hotel. This new wellness sanctuary offers signature botanical facials, detoxifying body treatments, and lymphatic drainage. The facility is equipped with luxury amenities including a lap pool, jacuzzi, and steam showers. Hotel guests can also enjoy the luxury of in-room massage services.
Nautical Style: Todd Snyder x John Hardy
Menswear designer Todd Snyder has teamed up with jewelry house John Hardy for a new seven-piece capsule collection. Inspired by East Coast maritime culture, the set includes rings, pendants, and bracelets featuring a unique “tumbled archive” finish designed to look weathered by sea air. The collection is available now with prices ranging from $550 to $995.
Teen Perspectives at the Studio Museum in Harlem
The Studio Museum in Harlem presents “Something in the Water: Expanding the Walls 2024,” an exhibition featuring work from sixteen participants in its teen photography program. The collection captures intimate moments of urban life and personal growth. Curated to explore the evolution of local communities and the artists themselves, the exhibition is available to view online through July 30, 2025.
