  • I Imagine the Enthusiasm of Tatiana Copeland's Resounding
    If a princess invited you to her soirée, wouldn’t you go? I imagine the enthusiasm of Tatiana Copeland’s resounding “yes!” when the notoriously charismatic and playful Princess Margaret, sister to Queen Elizabeth II, first invited her to the private island paradise of Mustique in the West Indies. Copeland is a jet-setting polyglot, philanthropist, and succesful businesswoman with an impressive family lineage that includes the likes of Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff. Along with her equally well-connected husband, Gerret (a scion of the prominent DuPont family), Tatiana has returned many times to Mustique since that first royal invitation about four decades ago. And with good reason: The remote island, with its overall ambiance of joie de vivre and laid-back elegance, continues to be the Copeland family antidote for stress. “At first we rented other people’s villas, and over time, we stayed at nearly every one on the island,” Tatiana tells me as we sip libations by an infinity pool at Toucan Hill, a Moroccan-inspired villa she built and finished in 2004. She gestures to the nearly 360-degree, panoramic view of cobalt sea, just as the sun sets, a fat orange ball exploding into purple octopus arms across the sky. A satisfied look consumes her face. “Finally, we just had to build our own fantastical dream.” Visitors can rent Toucan Hill, one of 100+ villas that comprise Mustique Island & Villas, which itself is owned by the island’s various homeowners. The infinity pool at Toucan Villa in Mustique. One of the Caribbean’s best-kept secrets, 1,400-acre Mustique island has drawn glitterati for decades.

That is certainly the case with the State of the World’s Sea Turtles (SWOT) program, the world’s largest volunteer network of sea turtle researchers, conservationists, and enthusiasts. This volume of SWOT Report unifies an enormous cast: from the hundreds of researchers in more than 20 countries, whose collective efforts can be seen in the first-ever global-scale map of loggerhead sea turtle telemetry (pp. 32–33), to the beach workers from the Wider Caribbean Sea Turtle Conservation Network (WIDECAST) and beyond, whose labors are seen in this issue’s maps of sea turtle biogeography (pp. 24–27). As you peruse these cartographic works of art, reflect for a moment on the time, effort, and passion that went into each of those tiny, tinted polygons of telemetry data or the myriad multicolored circles of nest abundance. Together they represent the labors of a multitude of beach workers, synergistically amassed to bring big-picture visualizations of sea turtle natural history to life as never before.

  • Though the Alist Playground of Mustique Has an Aloof Charm
    The warm, friendly heart of gold of the island of Bequia Bequia, the second largest island in the Grenadines www.4cornersimages.com Amanda Linfoot Published at 12:01AM, December 27 2014 Though the A­list playground of Mustique has an aloof charm, beautiful Bequia is a perfect island in its own right Looking out to sea from Friendship Bay, on the island of Bequia, Mustique sits squarely on the horizon. This is the Grenadines — not short on fabulous vistas — but this scene is particularly appealing: blue sky, sea twinkling in the sunlight, a holiday island that radiates glamour. Roughly opposite my viewpoint at the Bequia Beach Hotel sits the Cotton House, Mustique’s only hotel. Guests there can sit on the manicured beach and enjoy the reverse of my view. Except that they will have paid considerably more for the privilege. Playground of royalty and A­listers, Mustique might seem off the travel radar of mere mortals. But here’s a secret: you don’t need to remortgage if you want to visit. It’s just perfect for day trips, as are the up­and­coming Canouan island, home to Sandy Lane’s sister hotel, and other Caribbean idylls. Base yourself at Bequia and you get to stay on a lovely island in its own right, which also turns out to be the perfect base for a luxury island­hopping holiday. But first you have to get there. Bequia is the second largest of the Grenadines but it’s one of those islands that requires a bit of effort to reach.

Born in Palermo Sicily in 1898 he inherited his ducal title in 1921. While a houseguest of Cole and Linda Porter in Venice in 1925, Fulco met one of the most significant people in his young life – Mme Coco Chanel. Coco was intrigued by the attractive young nobleman and invited him to Paris. He helped her remake the jewelry given to her by wealthy admirers and created her signature Maltese Cross Cuffs. Verdura was her jewelry designer until 1934 when the Porters lured him to New York. Fulco loved their sky-high palace in the Waldorf Towers but the rest of America beckoned. Together he and Nicky de Gunsburg bought a Packard convertible and motored to Palm Beach, then to the Paley’s in Mexico and finally on to Hollywood. With his excellent introductions Verdura was soon creating bold and innovative jewelry for film stars including Joan Crawford, Marlene Dietrich, Tyrone Power, Gary Cooper and Katherine Hepburn.
