“I have a broken toe and I walked here—I break them all the time!” said actress Blythe Danner (a.k.a. Gwyneth Paltrow’s mom), wearing not hideous gladiators but daisy-accented sandals with an elegant white pantsuit at Planned Parenthood’s One Million Strong Cocktail Party on Monday, June 3.  read more »

On a recent blustery February morning, Jessica Lange and Joan Allen sat at a conference table, joking around with each other about the ills of fluorescent lighting. The two women co-star, along with Kathy Bates, in Bonneville, a film about three friends who drive from Utah to Southern California after Ms. Lange’s character’s husband passes away. “I have always wanted to do a road movie,” said Ms. Lange, 59, naming Terrence Malick’s Badlands and Bonnie and Clyde as two of her favorites.  read more »

Room with a view

We were talking last week to Horst Rechelbacher, the founder of Aveda, about the $4.3m penthouse apartment he just bought at his One Fifth Avenue co-op.

"The view here is Heaven," exclaimed Mr. Rechelbacher, referring to his wrap-around porch. "Heaven on Earth with a view."

"It's 360," he continued. " I see New York from all points of view. I'm not looking at buildings, I'm looking over them."

Now, Mr. Rechelbacher, who already owns the apartment next door, will have the top floor all to himself.

"I'm just going to take the wall out and combine them," he said. What will it look like? "Well, I mean. It will look cool. It's going to look cool. I'm using pretty much all recycled furniture--antiques. And it's going to be Jugendstil, which is Austrian. I'm going to do the apartment very Austrian."

He will also do it very sustainable: everything will be recycled-- including bamboo floors, bathroom glass, and tile. And, of course, the paint will be non-toxic.

As for that Austrian art deco furniture: "I use Josef Hoffman, he's my favorite Jugendstil designer. He has clean, simplistic design: it's very modern, very timeless. Doesn't have any frills."

Mr. Rechelbacher says he will probably have some Egon Schiele ("to match the Jugendstil"), plus photography by Richard Avedon and Horst P. Horst-- whom Mr. Rechelbacher assisted with hair and makeup before founding Aveda in 1978. In 1997, Mr. Recehelbacher sold Aveda to Estee Lauder for $300 million cash. He has since founded Intelligent Nutrients.

Even with a full-floor, Fifth Ave. aerie, Mr. Rechelbacher isn't going to be a homebody.  read more »
