Luke Edward Hall's New Ginori 1735 Collection Is Inspired by Greco-Roman Pottery and the Bloomsbury Group
With a deep love for Greco-Roman mythology and an innate knack for storytelling, Luke Edward Hall's imaginative aesthetic has amassed a rapt fan base. And for his second collection in collaboration with Ginori 1735 (which launches today), the English artist taps into his signature folkloric whimsy to continue the narrative of Neptune, the Roman god and ruler of the sea. With Il Viaggio di Nettuno—A New Chapter, Neptune and his mythical cohort of winged horses and frantic octopuses leap across porcelain tableware in muted shades of butter yellow, sky blue, and peach. Photo: Courtesy of Ginori 1735 The collection picks up where the first voyage left off, with Neptune remaining the protagonist; Hall explains that the new direction primarily relates to the style and color. 'I wanted my drawings to be a little more graphic this time around, more monochromatic, and I wanted to play with the overall palette,' the artist tells Vogue. Whereas the first collection was splashed with punchy, saturated colors, this time around, earthier hues set the scene. 'I mixed tones like terracotta and forest green with soft, dusty shades of butter yellow, sky blue and peach,' he says. And because everything is based on his hand drawings, the borders and lines are perfectly imperfect. (Or as Hall puts it, a little wonky.) 'Also, the backgrounds are based on watercolor paintings, so they're patchy. I love this—I love imperfections. I was interested in the idea of recreating a hand-painted look with a printed product.'

East Hampton's LDV at the Maidstone hotel debuts luxe brand partnerships
Last summer, the 150-year-old Maidstone Hotel, located on Main Street in East Hampton, reopened its doors under the leadership of LDV Hospitality, the group behind NYC's Scarpetta restaurant and famed for its Italian luxury. The hotel, since renamed LDV at the Maidstone, introduced a daily aperitivo hour in the garden and rebooted the elegant restaurant to serve scrumptious Italian pastas. This summer, the Maidstone is bringing even more European elegance to East Hampton courtesy of new partnerships with Sézane, the French fashion brand, and Ginori 1735, a luxury Italian dinnerware company. 3 LDV at the Maidstone hotel will host a Sézane fashion pop-up in its back garden this summer. Letizia Cigliutti 'We want to bring this La Dolce Vita lifestyle to the Hamptons,' John Meadow, the founder and president of LDV Hospitality, tells Alexa. Sézane is setting up a pop-up shop in the hotel's back garden, behind the hedges, from June 20 to July 27. Visitors will be able to order a spritz or glass of fine Italian wine at the bar and shop a unique summer capsule collection (including the famous Justine basket bag) along with limited-edition items. 3 The hotel's recently updated restaurant will serve food on Ginori 1735's elegant Oriente Italiano plates. GLEN ALLSOP 'We went with them because they're young, fresh, fun, playful, whimsical,' explains Meadow. Hotel guests will also be surprised by Sézane products in their rooms. In addition, the hotel will be decked out with objects crafted by Ginori 1735, which is known for its colorful porcelain table settings and home decor. 'It's like Bergdorf-caliber, fancy China,' notes Meadow. Chef Jorge Espinoza, who runs the restaurant, has already been serving his famous spaghetti alla nerano on Ginori 1735's Oriente Italiano plates. This summer all food — both indoor and outdoor — will be served on the brand's tableware. 3 A scrumptions meal from the Maidstone. GLEN ALLSOP The company is also creating printed pillows, umbrellas and throws for the garden and setting up a pop-up shop in the hotel lobby for guests coveting the latest Ginori 1735 collection. 'I watched all last summer as guests would sit there and look at the bottom of the plates to see who made them,' recalls Meadow. 'Why not be able to allow them to bring those home, right?'
