Certainly, whereas the room could also be Lynchian in its origins, it’s wholly Nuriev’s. Having collaborated with manufacturers from Nike to Balenciaga, Nuriev is understood for his vibrant, futuristic minimalism in addition to his embrace of vogue supplies. (The person’s made a sofa out of Uggs and denim, in any case.) That’s on full show right here.

Which, coincidentally, was located only some blocks away from Silencio New York. Situated on 57th Avenue and eighth Avenue, it’s within the coronary heart of the city grit of Gotham—which by some means solely provides to its glamor—albeit neighborhoods away from the town’s present downtown hotspots. “We had been within the historical past of the neighborhood,” Frisch says of their location close to the town’s most legendary nightclub. “And we’ve at all times been inquisitive about being a vacation spot place.”

In the meantime, mixologist Remy Savage has crafted a cocktail menu that looks like Marais meets Midtown: suppose Manhattan with a twist of Pernod, or an Upside-Down New York bitter with orgeat. Drinks can be served to Silencio’s discerning clientele whereas a world-class DJ or performer performs on within the background. (Prince, Lana Del Rey, and Pharrell Williams are simply a few of the well-known names that the Silencio outpost in Paris has introduced on stage up to now.) “We’ve at all times had a robust hyperlink to the humanities scene, the music scene,” Frisch provides.

Silencio will open in late February, however a fortunate few could also be passing by way of its velvet curtains even sooner—with New York Vogue Week kicking off this weekend, it’s already been booked for various personal occasions.
