Yankees’ fashion collab, Patti Lupone and Mia Farrow on Broadway, more NYC events

Each week, Alexa is rounding up the buzziest fashion drops, hotel openings, restaurant debuts and celeb-studded cultural happenings in NYC. It’s our curated guide to the very best things to see, shop, taste and experience around the city. 

What’s making our luxury list this week? A super-cool Yankees collab, yet another buzzy Korean restaurant, and Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone are back on Broadway. 

Richard Serra is probably best known for his monumental steel sculptures. But it turns out the artist, who died earlier this year at the age of 85, also made films and videos. Over a dozen of them, created between the years 1968-1979 (some shot on 16mm-film) are currently on view at Dia Chelsea. Some of these originally debuted at the Whitney’s “Anti-Illusion” show in 1968; they were short, and filmed in black and white little or no sound. Others are longer, like a nine-minute film shot in 1975 while Serra was living and working in Portland, Oregon. It stars a pivot bridge on the Burlington Northern Railroad at the Willamette River. Through September 14, DiaArt.org.

The Bronx Bombers collaborated with NYON on a collection of 49 pieces for men, women and kids, that debuted earlier this week. Hero pieces, according to the brand, “are a quartet of varsity jackets — half with wool bodies and leather sleeves and half fashioned from 100% Cotton Twill — with pinstriped lining…a subtle nod to the most iconic team uniforms in the history of professional sports.” NYON also made caps in partnership with New Era, a company that’s apparently supplied Major League Baseball hats for over thirty years. There are 16 hat options — four 59FIFTYs, four 9FORTY A-Frame snapbacks, and eight 9TWENTY adjustable caps — that are clearly a home run. NewYorkorNowhere.com

Two of the most iconic actors of our time will share a Broadway stage for a limited time. Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone are co-starring in The Roommate, a comedy by Jen Silverman (whose buzzy novel, There’s Going to be Trouble, was published earlier this year). The play, directed by five-time Tony Award winner Jack O’Brien, is described as a “portrait of a blossoming intimacy between two women from vastly different backgrounds, as they navigate the complexities of identity, morality and the promise of reinvention.” Performances start on August 29th; opening night is set for September 12th at the Booth Theatre.

For almost twenty years, Stark — the over 85 year-old carpet retailer — has collaborated with Italian fashion house Missoni on exclusive collections of rugs. The latest offerings include nine in-stock rug styles, five custom styles and a “performance acrylic fiber” design that, they claim, “effortlessly combines elegance with durability.” As expected, all are colorful, vibrant and optimistic — potential game changers for a room.

Odre (“welcome”) opened earlier this week, the latest eatery from Hand Hospitality, the company behind the two Michelin-starred Atomix, the still-buzzy Cho Dang Gol, and the much lauded Okdongsik, plus over a dozen other predominantly Korean restaurants. It is helmed by Chef Changki Kang, who created a four course prix fixe dinner menu (at a very reasonable $42) that is “rooted in the rhythm of the seasons…. while evoking the essence of Korean flavors.” Sample seasonal dishes available upon opening will include Cuttlefish Hwe, Shrimp Jeon, Spicy Beef Jjim, and Bansang, served on Korean-style pottery. Art fans take note: the space also features original works by Korean artist HyeSeong Kwon. OdreNYC.com
