スタイリッシュ？ それとも時代遅れ？ 会場でキャッチした装いを振り返ります。 By Jessica Iredale and Masayo Fukaya公開日:2025/01/21 まず、男性たちは紫や赤、青というネクタイの色でのみ、党派心を表現していました。 いっぽう女性たちは、ルックですべてを物語っていました。 特に共和党の女性たち（主にファーストレディのメラニア・トランプ、セカンドレディのウシャ・ヴァンス、ファーストドーターのイヴァンカ・トランプ）は、必ずしも同じ作品ではないものの、史劇の登場人物のようです。 ひときわ目を惹いたのは、ワントーンの着こなし。メラニア夫人とイヴァンカは、まるで1940年代の映画からそのまま抜け出てきたようでした。 普段はヨーロッパのラグジュアリーブランドを好むメラニア夫人ですが、この日はアメリカのブランドをセレクト。アダム・リップスによるネイビーのダブルブレストコートと、そこからのぞかせた白い襟は、時代を超越したエレガンスを感じさせます。 しかし、白いリボンが付いたネイビーのエリック...

Deep in the canyons of New York's financial district, there is an office tower that matches the cultural moment, for better and for worse. It might be the first "It" building. Known as the WSA building (short for Water Street Associates), the 31-story structure, at 175 Water Street, has become a nexus for the kind of people who might not otherwise set foot in this neighborhood of bankers and brokers.
