OBSESSIONS. DECORATION. SALIENT FACTS. Rendering of the renovated deBoulle Diamonds & Jewelry flagship with rooftop terrace Serpenti Spira cuff from Bulgari High Jewelry Collection D e J e w e l s N e w s : For more than four decades, deBoulle Diamond & Jewelry has been a beloved purveyor of all things to adorn the wrist, ears, and decolletage. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of their Preston Road flagship, Denis and Karen Boulle, along with Nick and Emma Boulle, plan a landmark transformation designed by architect Omniplan, with renovations starting this year and concluding in 2028. Look for a reimagined exterior clad in Spanish limestone, rooftop terrace with private lounges, elevated salons, designer galleries, private consultation spaces, and, for discerning horologists, a dedicated two- story Patek Philippe destination. And, we're happy to report that the boutique will remain open throughout construction. The Long Goodbye: It's official — Neiman Marcus Downtown closes for good on Wednesday, September 30. It had a stellar run (opening in 1914) and was given an additional nine months. Remember last year when they announced it would be closing and the subsequent uproar and then nothing happened to bring new life? Well, time for round two of goodbyes. Make your reservation for one last lunch at the iconic Zodiac Room and enjoy that T h e r e 's a barricade u p i n f r o n t o f the former Alexander M c Q u e e n space in Highland Park Village, announcing that Bulgari will join the roster this fall, slated for a November opening.

Expanding culture and philanthropy, Fondazione Bulgari was established in Rome in 2024 as an independent organization that seeks to foster and extend the maison's social commitments. The Bulgari universe will be available at the new boutique — jewelry, watches, accessories, and fragrance.

Village Voice: On a recent visit to Highland Park Village, I caught Taylor Sheridan's team filming scenes for his wildly popular series Frisco King. I popped into The Conservatory for lunch at the Teak Room, where Brian Bolke's team has launched their summer menu. Well, I guess I'm seasonal, because the Billy Spritzer made the final cut.
