INTRODUCING 10 MEN USA ISSUE 02: HERITAGE, LEGACY, FUTURE – READ THE EDITOR’S LETTER

This issue seemed to unfold through fortuitous timing, last-minute cancellations, spectacular shows in exotic places, and old friends; it has been a total joy. Once we’d decided to pay some worthy attention to the West Coast, ideas seemed to present themselves organically, as you’ll see. In the following pages we meet amazing natives and new arrivals to the City of Angels, a city I’ll never grow tired of, with its ever-changing landscape where creativity thrives and ideas and energy evolve instinctively.

We meet the entrepreneur and environmental advocate David de Rothschild, who talks us through what he thinks it will take to stay focused for the future, and 10 creatives making their mark in LA in our On The Rise feature. We spend time with hat maker to the stars Nick Fouquet, visit the enviable bubble that is Paradise Cove up in Malibu, and we shoot some fashion where else but on Venice Beach. More fashion stories take us from Berlin to Paris, Marrakech to Greece, and of course back to LA via NYC, where we meet Verena Haller, the genius behind The Standard’s array of beautiful properties who’s now heading up the Hyatt Group’s portfolio, and talk about The Manner, NYC in all its glory.

We also have reads for you that focus on heritage, our theme for this issue, what that word means and how it impacts us all, not by looking back but focusing firmly on the future. I am really proud of this, 10 Men USA’s second issue, and am now dreaming of the third but before I do, please take some time to enjoy this one!
