Girlboss Rally

Our roundup of stage design ideas this week included the Girlboss Rally business conference, held in New York in November. It brought together more than 600 attendees and 30 speakers to discuss the meaning of success. The event featured a feminine, cheery color palette of pinks, reds, oranges, and whites. The stage design by the Gathery offered a simple—yet stylish—backdrop of curved shapes that picked up the same colors and styles as the rest of the conference.Â

Another Renaissance dish, called Bistecca Fiorentina Padini, is sliced Porterhouse with roasted garlic, rosemary, and truffle hollandaise served on an artisanal baguette.

Joe Flamm, the executive chef of Chicago's Spiaggia and Café Spiaggia, is creating four Renaissance-inspired food stations for the Grammys Awards' official after-party on February 10. A station inspired by Venice, Italy, will serve Salumi, made with soppressata, prosciutto, and nostrano served with toasted house bread, pickled vegetables, jam, and mustard.
