Jake Bongiovi wears Banana Republic for his wedding to Millie Bobby Brown

Five months after tying the knot in Tuscany, American actor and model, Jake Bongiovi, and “Stranger Things” star Millie Bobby Brown, finally shared the details of their wedding earlier this month.

While Brown opted for a custom lace Galia Lahav gown and an Oscar de la Renta veil for the ceremony, which was held at Villa Cetinale near Siena and officiated by actor Matthew Modine, Bongiovi opted for an array of looks from Banana Republic

For the occasion, the actor wore the brand’s Barathea Italian Tuxedo jacket and pants, complemented by a Sauvo Silk Bow Tie and Mesi Leather Cap-Toe Oxfords. His groomsmen were likewise dressed in the Barathea Tuxedo jacket and pant, the Sauvo Silk Bow Tie, the Mesi Leather Cap-Toe Oxfords and slim tuxedo dress shirts.

Founded in 1978 in San Francisco, Banana Republic was purchased by The Gap in 1983.

Figueras first partnered with Veuve Clicquot in 2008 to draw attention to the sport with the first polo event taking place on Governors Island in New York. Prince Harry notably joined the team in 2010 and 2011 to raise money for his Sentebale charity.

Chez Mia opens on the former Ago site in West Hollywood

Chez Mia, the latest restaurant from the Boujis Group, the Los Angeles-based hospitality group helmed by former “Ladies of London” Bravo stars Marissa and Matt Hermer, has opened in West Hollywood.

Located on the site that was formerly home to Ago, the restaurant was inspired by Marissa’s travels throughout Southern France and La Colombe d’Or in Saint Paul du Vence. From-the-farm ingredients and freshly caught seafood are the cornerstone of the restaurant’s simple yet refined menu, developed by culinary director Ivo Filho. Signature dishes include sustainably caught fish crudo, slow baked wild Gulf shrimp and whole fish, baked in salt and elegantly deboned table-side – a nod to an Ago favorite.

Chez Mia was designed in collaboration with Tom Parker of architecture and interior design firm Fettle. Employing rich textures, geometric patterns, blown glass and lush landscape design, the interior looks onto an open kitchen lined with chef’s counter seating, while the expansive garden is anchored by a sweeping outdoor bar.

The Boujis Group’s other restaurants include celebrity hotspot Olivetta in West Hollywood and The Draycott in Pacific Palisades.

Chez Mia is open daily for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch at 8478 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90069

Celebrity stylist and image architect Law Roach celebrated the release of his first book, “How to Build a Fashion Icon,” at the West Hollywood Edition on Oct. 2.

Roach hosted an extravagant celebration for the release of his debut publication at Sunset, the hotel’s subterranean nightclub, following an in-conversation event moderated by Normani and Keke Palmer. He has also partnered with Edition hotels, the luxury global collection, to host signings, intimate dinners and vibrant events in New York and Miami.

In the book, which is described as part self-help guide, part manifesto, Roach shares the secrets of his creative approach, takes readers behind the scenes of his process and journey and reveals his tips, tricks and most memorable styling moments to show readers how to live their most iconic and fashionable lives.

Roach, whose celebrity clientele include Zendaya, Anya Taylor-Joy, Lewis Hamilton and Céline Dion, announced his retirement from styling in March 2023.

“Writing my own book was a liberating experience,” Roach said. “I discovered an innate sense of freedom through the process. It offered a unique form of creativity that was different from my other work … It gave me purpose after my retirement.”
