The legendary Angelo Donghia employed clean lines and well defined forms to produce interiors that seemed “…at first sleek and modern, but were actually based on the eighteenth-century belief in sensible proportions and careful symmetry.” It’s no wonder that when Ralph and Ricky Lauren acquired their 5th Avenue apartment, they turned to Donghia and his highly refined design vision to help them create a suitably chic interior. Very happily for us Donghia has included the monumental “Manhattan” sectional created for the Lauren’s apartment as part of their line. I’m planning to use this ultra beautiful piece in an uber stylish young man’s apartment in the fabulous One Madison Park, Rem Koolhaas building.

I’m sporting a white cotton safari jacket by Gucci, a black cotton band collar shirt with flap pockets by Yves Saint Laurent ysl.com, purple skinny jeans by Diesel, black patent leather belt with silver leather trim and grommets by Gucci, with silver leather sneakers by Dior.
