Synopsis

Famous for their ultra short, sharp and snappy reviews and highly personal and selective entries - LUXE City Guides have sold well over one million copies - no padding, no maps, no daft pictures and graphics, just super-curated, highly opinionated quickfire speed reads from resident editors and contributors who REALLY know their city, so you can spend time enjoying the city not head down in a book. Packed from concertina cover to cover with snazz, snark and snap, if it's in LUXE, it's IN - enough said. Iconic, majestic, grand, kitsch, the tops, the bottoms, the kit and the kaboodle, NY is one huge and mercurial melting pot. Fashion forward, status conscious, food and culture epicentric, exasperating, exhilarating and never, ever out of vogue. Want perfect cocktails in funky modern speakeasies or charming, charisma-stacked old bars? Cut through the mediocre to find and feast on knockout food from humble burger joints to sensational gastro temples. Shop yourself silly with our unique by the hand shopping itineraries, and discover the wonderful world of bespoke artisans with perfume, stationery, ceramics, lingerie, suits and ties made just for you. Need a little extra help? Try our hand-picked personal shopper for red carpet-ready vintage gowns and jewellery or our art guru to guide you to the city s treasures. Point, point, point? Well, the point is, do you want to find the finest shops, restaurants, spas, bars and services and avoid the rest, or not? Want it all in a New York minute...? Point taken. LUXE New York. Triple threat, darling.
