Once I tried out the line “Remember who you were before you had a permanent address.” The client scoffed. At the time I lived in a converted garage by a cemetery, the third place I’d moved in a year. The restaurant was unexceptional — plastic chairs, coarse tablecloths, low guttering candles — and perfect. In the maze of the old quarter, we sat at a table outside, on stone stairs descending from another century.

When Tiffany & Co. reopens its New York City flagship on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street this spring, following three years of work, visitors will hardly recognize the street-level sales floor famously featured in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Where dark-green marble and teak columns once surrounded a bank of art deco elevators, a showstopping painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat now hangs. The canvas was chosen especially for the robin’s-egg-blue background that nearly matches Tiffany’s own trademarked blue. It’s an intentionally placed lure—inviting in those tourists who come to re-create Audrey Hepburn’s dreamy window-shopping scene. In the new-look Tiffany, splashy art abounds: A concave, faceted stainless-steel Anish Kapoor wall sculpture in the third-floor wedding and engagement area seems tailor-made for celebratory ring-shopping selfies.
