Fashion
The iconic designer presents a stunning alternative to the fast-fashion craze with her line of handcrafted leather goods. Each one is made by artisans in the brand’s Leather Atelier in Spain, where generations-old techniques are kept alive.
Doing your part for the planet can be as simple as switching up your lunch choice. One place to start? A meal from Fruitive, which offers a fully plant-based menu filled with organic and made-from-scratch items.
Discover two new eco-conscious jackets just in time for your spring adventures. The Beta LT uses bluesign® approved fabrics that are sustainable and long-lasting, while the Alpha SL is made with a dyeing process that saves tons of water and CO2 per jacket.
Acquiring fewer, better things is another approach to sustainable shopping. Brunello Cucinelli’s timeless garments and accessories are a great place to start, and the artisanal quality ensures they can be handed down for generations.
Ready to redefine the idea of a statement bag? The new limited-edition Earth Top Handle bag recreates the iconic ‘90s Top Handle style in FSC certified cork, a natural and renewable material.

Dining
Conrad Reaches New Heights
Just in time for leisurely lunches, al fresco cocktail hours, and date night dinners with a view, Conrad hotel’s rooftop destination has reopened with a fresh new concept. SUMMIT the Rooftop debuts with an eco- and socially conscious approach to dining—the perfect way to herald the arrival of a new season.
Craving a meal with local flavor? Try the seasonal Fish Tacos, Chesapeake Hard Clams, or House Pork BBQ, which is slow-roasted in a solar-powered oven. To whet your appetite, choose from a drink menu that highlights the mid-Atlantic area’s community of distillers and brewers. The wine list focuses on bottles that have been brought to life by inspiring female vintners. Tempted to nosh on the garnish that graces your cocktail? We don’t blame you—each one is sourced from the hotel’s rooftop garden, planted in partnership with local company Up Top Acres.
