COMPLETES THREE-YEAR RENOVATION IN TIME FOR THE 2025 SEASON
The Althoff Villa Belrose will open its doors for the summer season in St. Tropez, unveiling new renovations and culinary offerings.
Over the past three years, this gem in the Althoff COLLECTION portfolio has been thoughtfully modernized and redesigned, with updates made each winter during the resort’s annual closure. Under the leadership of designer Markus Hilzinger, Villa Belrose has completed its renovations, updating the public areas, pool terrace, dining spaces and guest rooms. With the 2025 reopening, Villa Belrose will unveil a stunning new Signature Suite, 18 refurbished double rooms and a new state-of-the-art fitness center. Furthermore, the gourmet restaurant, led by Chef Jimmy Coutel, will relaunch as Le Belrose, with a revised culinary concept centered around exceptional Mediterranean cuisine.
From the resort’s exclusive new signature suite, the Suite Belrose, guests can now enjoy stunning panoramic views over the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, Sainte Maxime, the Massif de l’Esterel and all the way to the Alps. The suite merges two existing rooms, spanning about 650 square feet with separate living and sleeping areas, a private balcony, and the option to expand to 860 square feet with the addition of an adjacent room. In keeping with the resort’s commitment to sustainability, high-quality natural oak flooring has been installed in all rooms and suites. The color palette draws inspiration from the surrounding Côte d’Azur landscape, with shades of terracotta red, azure blue, and the lush green of Mediterranean flora reflected in the wallpapers, textiles and accessories.
“The linen wallpaper in Hermès style, with pale blue accents and a golden frame with a red border, contours the original drawings and oil paintings of Chilean artist Juan Nazar,” remarks Markus Hilzinger, Head of Design at Althoff Hotels. “He was inspired by French architecture and the natural colors of the surrounding environment. He created the artworks specifically for us. The exclusively designed furniture, such as the sideboard made from fine walnut wood and the hand-knotted rugs, enhances the harmonious yet elegant overnight experience.”
The newly redesigned restaurant, Le Belrose, under the leadership of Chef Jimmy Coutel, offers guests a relaxed dining experience, with incredible views over the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. The menu features an à la carte selection of Mediterranean classics, as well as a four-course tasting menu and a five-course surprise tasting menu. All of the ingredients are sourced from local producers, and the wine list is one of the most extensive in the region. One of the standout dishes on the menu is “Le Jardin de Sydney,” a medley of seasonal vegetables sourced from a local garden.
Robert van Straaten, who has served as the General Manager of Villa Belrose for 25 years, remarked, “Jimmy Coutel and his team are creating a culinary concept that will attract both hotel guests and culinary enthusiasts from across the entire bay. Also, thanks to our Maître d’ Carolina Magas, who has been part of the Althoff family for over a decade, Le Belrose embodies the warmth and professionalism of Southern France. With a clear focus on regional, Mediterranean dishes and high-quality ingredients, we are creating a dining experience that we hope will remain memorable for a long time.”
Vybz Kartel, the living legend of Jamaican dancehall, turns to a new page in his storied career with the release of his new video, “God Is The Greatest.” In the video directed by AKA.RUPPI, the King of Dancehall takes an introspective look at the pivotal turning points of the past year from earning his freedom to his landmark Freedom Street concert at Jamaica’s National Stadium. “God Is The Greatest,” produced by TJ Records / Adidjahiem Records, is synced to a series of candid shots from Vybz Kartel’s visit to Miami, FL featuring cameos with DJ Khaled and Bounty Killer.

He attended the 2025Grammy Awards, earning his first nomination for Best New Reggae Album, and later received the prestigious Impact Award at the MOBO Awards, where he also performed.

Designer jewelry brand, Vivienne Charles, launches part of its first collection, Birds, Bees, and Things from the Sea Collection, an array of sculptural handcrafted jewels that transport the wearer to enchanted landscapes and timeless encounters with nature’s poetic elements. Celebrating the majesty of creatures soaring through the sky and dwelling in the forest, the collection reimagines nature’s quiet magic in precious metal and gemstones, inviting wearers to embrace the beauty found in fleeting moments. Select pieces from the collection will be showcased at An Ode to Spring: Celebrating Nature’s Renewal, a mixed-media exhibition at Lapin Contemporary Gallery, April 12th through June 15th, 2025, at 60 Roberts Drive, Studio 308, North Adams, MA, in the historic Norad Mill.
“Vivienne Charles jewelry designs capture the essence of the natural world, making them a perfect complement to our An Ode to Spring gallery show,” says Cristina Barbedo, curator and co-owner of Lapin Contemporary. “The beauty and craftsmanship of each piece reflect the renewal and vibrancy of the season, echoing the artistic themes showcased in our exhibition. Every design tells a story, making Vivienne Charles a stunning and fitting addition to our celebration of spring.”
Elisa Gilbert, designer and founder of Vivienne Charles shares “I wanted to create a collection that feels like a jeweled manifestation of nature’s whispers—each piece a memory of something ephemeral yet eternal. These designs are meant to capture the enchantment of the natural world in wearable form.”
A symbol of resilience and hidden wonders, the bees in the Birds, Bees and Things from the Sea Collection capture the spirit of nature’s most industrious creators. “Bees are symbolic to me—representing both hard work and the quiet elegance of nature,” says Gilbert. Apis Verdi immortalizes a golden-hued bee discovered in a sun-drenched meadow, its emerald eyes reflecting the treasures hidden in wildflower fields. The Queen Bee Necklace exudes the mystery of a golden hive hidden deep in an ancient garden—a regal jewel carrying the whispered magic of a world where bees reign in golden splendor.
Associated with luck and transformation, the collection’s frogs capture the essence of adventure. The Prince Charming Necklace captures the timeless allure of enchanted lily ponds, where golden frogs poised mid-leap glisten in the moonlight. Crimson Leap Earrings showcase carved carnelian leaves, glowing with fiery warmth, while 14K gold frogs appear mid-bound, ready to embrace fortune and change. A regal sterling silver and 24K gold bullfrog buckle, Mirelume, carries the aura of twilight marshes, a talisman for those who move with confidence. Similarly, the Celestial Serenade Pin, a gilded cricket adorned with diamonds, emeralds, and a black star sapphire eye, channels the quiet magic of nature’s nighttime symphony—capturing the harmony of twilight’s melodies.
Two timeless hoop styles are collection standouts, offering a touch of classic beauty that pair seamlessly with Vivienne Charles nature-inspired pieces—while making a statement on their own. The Honeyed Hive Hoops capture the intricate lattice of a honeycomb, allowing light to pass through their delicate openwork design—embodying the golden hum of nature’s architecture. The Highland Hoops, crafted in 14K yellow and green gold, echo the woven ivy of ancient Scottish ruins, whispering of history, adventure, and the timeless beauty found in forgotten fortresses.
As part of An Ode to Spring, Vivienne Charles joins a diverse group of artists in celebrating nature’s renewal. Visitors to Lapin Contemporary can immerse themselves in a curated experiential space where drawings, paintings, jewelry, sculpture, and floral design merge to evoke the rhythms of the natural world. The gallery, a cultural space, offers exhibitions year-round attracting art lovers traveling through the Berkshires. Vivienne Charles invites jewelry lovers to embrace the enchantment of nature’s most captivating moments. “Each piece tells a story, preserving the magic of land, sea, and sky in precious metal and glittering gems. I hope these jewels inspire the same sense of wonder in others that they bring to me,” says Elisa Gilbert.

STAR WARS’ DOCTOR APHRA NAVIGATES THE NEW REPUBLIC IN NEW ONGOING COMIC SERIES
Set in the post-Return of the Jedi era, STAR WARS: DOCTOR APHRA – CHAOS AGENT, a new ongoing series by writer Cherish Chen and artist Gabriel Guzman,launches this June.
She’s back! Announced earlier today at Collider, Marvel’s very own Star Wars superstar, DOCTOR APHRA, will headline a new ongoing comic series this June written by rising star Cherish Chen (Radiant Red) and drawn by acclaimed longtime Star Wars artist Gabriel Guzman. Following Alex Segura and Phil Noto’s flagship Star Wars series launching in May, STAR WARS: DOCTOR APHRA – CHAOS AGENT will be the second launch in Marvel’s new era of Star Wars storytelling set in the largely unexplored post-Return of the Jedi time period.
Debuting 10 years ago in the pages of Kieron Gillen and Salvador Larroca’s Darth Vader, Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra instantly captivated fans with her morally questionable nature and deadly dynamic with the Dark Lord of the Sith, becoming the first-ever comic book originating Star Wars character to star in their own solo series. After back-to-back hit 40-issue runs set during the Original Trilogy, Aphra embarks on her most unpredictable misadventures as the galaxy far, far away transforms in the wake of the Battle of Jakku. With her crimes pardoned, Aphra is enlisted by her friend Luke Skywalker to put her treasure hunting skills to good use on behalf of the New Republic!
OUT FROM THE SHADOW OF DARTH VADER AND IN MORE TROUBLE THAN EVER!
Doctor Aphra makes her way through the galaxy in the era of the New Republic! The rogue archaeologist must team up with Luke Skywalker to track down a rare artifact! And what will she do when her tattoos no longer function?!
“In my humble opinion, there isn’t a more fun character to be writing in the Star Wars galaxy than the one and only Doctor Aphra,” Chen told Collider. “Cooking up new adventures for her in this new era, throwing her into increasingly tricky moral quandaries, and testing her resolve (alongside some familiar faces) has truly been like playing in the ultimate sandbox. Our favorite chaos agent is back, and I cannot wait to share what we’ve been working on and for you all to see Gabriel’s incredibly dynamic art.”
Check out new covers by E.J. Su, Sara Pichelli and Karen S. Darboe and preorder STAR WARS: DOCTOR APHRA – CHAOS AGENT #1 at your local comic shop today! For more information, visit Marvel.com.

Louis Vuitton presents two new collections to the Tambour line—a series of gem-set expressions as part of the Tambour High-End collection and the all-new Tambour Ceramic timepiece.
Tambour High End
The Tambour Yellow Gold with Onyx Dial and Sapphires is an exclusive, limited-edition 40mm Tambour in solid 18K yellow gold with an onyx dial, a bezel set with saffron-colored sapphires, and matching saffron sapphire indices. Its drum-shaped, circular-brushed case is contrasted by baguette-cut precious stones, while an integrated bracelet with vertically-brushed and polished links and an invisible folding buckle ensure comfort on the wrist. Fluid and elegant yet sporty and robust, the Tambour is ideal for a glamorous lifestyle of travel and leisure.
The Tambour Platinum with gradiated Sapphires and Rubies — a first within the Tambour collection — features a round 40mm case measuring just 8.3mm thick. Attaining its brushed finish is incredibly time-consuming due to platinum’s natural resistance to abrasion, while the bezel, crown, chamfers, and interlinks take twice as long to polish as those on the gold Tambour. Limited to just 50 pieces, this spectacular new expression of the Tambour collection has a small surprise present in order to indicate its special status: Flip the watch over, and its caseback is inset with a 1.6mm saffron sapphire.
Tambour Ceramic
The Tambour Ceramic features brown ceramic and rose gold in an embodiment of modern aesthetic and unmatched comfort. With the idea to always bring a new level of sophistication, it stands out with high-end design choices and artisanal finishes attainable only through very exclusive production. The reinterpretation underwent a complete re-engineering of the model’s case and bracelet. The case’s architecture now incorporates an internal gold core and a gold case back, further highlighting its preciousness. Designed to protect the movement, this internal container is covered with the ceramic components.
Helen Frankenthaler: Painting Without Rules celebrates the legacy of a pioneering artist who never stopped exploring new ways to make abstract art.
Comprising thirty of Frankenthaler’s poetic abstractions created between 1953 and 2002, the exhibition also features select paintings and sculptures by some of her contemporaries—Anthony Caro, Morris Louis, Robert Motherwell, Kenneth Noland, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and David Smith, highlighting the synergies between these artists.
Frankenthaler played a pivotal role in the transition from Abstract Expressionism to Color Field painting and is best known for her expanded use of the soak-stain technique.
The artist also adhered to a shared belief when it came to making art: No rules! Whether you were a painter or a sculptor (or both), the mantra was the same: no rules meant never being complacent about how your art got made, the materials used, or what it might look like.
The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao presents Helen Frankenthaler: Painting Without Rules, the largest exhibition ever held in Spain dedicated to this great artist pioneer of abstraction. The show, sponsored by the BBVA Foundation, Strategic Trustee of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao from 1997, and organized by the Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi and the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation in collaboration with the Museum, celebrates Helen Frankenthaler’s revolutionary art through a chronological journey that follows her prolific career over six decades.
