The Who’s Who of New York City came out to support author, journalist and editor Julia Chaplin at The Ludlow Hotel on November 18th, 2014 for the release of her book “Gypset Living“.
Notable guests included Sabine Heller, Rachelle Hruska, Sean MacPhereson, Phil Winsor and Carolyn Murphy.
In her third book in the series for luxury publishing house Assouline, Julia explores explores the living spaces of gypsy-jet-setters around the world. Her travels take you from exotic locations like Hydra to Guéthary; from Cuixmala to Pa’ia; and beyond to the Indonesian isles.
Chaplin, who coined the term gypset, provides a look into these spectacular personal utopias with her witty and humorous stories of the gypsetters that she meets along the way, such as Alix Goldsmith Marcaccini at her Mexican hideaway, or Halemano, a kind of hippie Four Seasons in Hawaii.
Stunning photography opens the door to the fascinating and dazzling homes, haunts and hideaways of the bohemian artists, designers, and bons vivants known as “the gypset”.
Julia Chaplin is a frequent contributor to The New York Times, W, and Travel + Leisure, and is the author of Gypset Style (2009), Gypset Travel (2012) and Gypset Living (2014). She also founded the clothing brand Gypset, and the web site Gypset.com.
