Hernan's Homecoming
Miami native Hernan Bas is among the city's handful of contemporary artists who have successfully leaped to the international market. Exhibited tomorrow through May 27, at Fredric Snitzer Gallery in Wynwood, the current Detroit dweller'sBoys in Peril?features new works loosely inspired by French writer J.K. Huysmans's lesser known novelDownstream. Exploring a link between their like-minded themes of dandyism and satanism, his paintings depict melancholy such as a young man reading tabloid obituaries beside a decrepit fountain in a garden; each piece poses additional threats lurking on (ghosts, snakes) and off (hence, pending peril) canvases that may or may not hurt the men, furthering the artist's knack for titillation. The opening reception is on Friday, April 12, from 7 to 9 p.m.

Piscine Queen
Now that the water's getting warm enough for a dip, it's time to think about a new bathing suit. Emilie Bon, French founder of the impossibly chic Lilibon swim and resort wear, unveils her Spring 2013 collection at a trunk show in the Standard Spa's courtyard on Saturday, April 13, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Continuing her fascination with retro silhouettes sans clich, Love is All presents a striking one piece with a ruffled, plunging v back, double ruffled bikini bottom and sculpted tops. Ruching, piping and stitchwork decorate separates in a traditional floral print and solids including ivory and navy that may be mixed and matched regarding sizes and styles. Previous collections such as mermaid-themed Afternoon are on sale, too.

Sobe Lol
The South Beach Comedy Festival kicks off Wednesday with a one-two punch. Diehard humor fans can double down by catching the amazingly hilarious Bill Burr's set at 8 p.m., followed by the second performance of Miami-based Mad Cat Theatre Company's Charming Acts of Misery at 9:30 p.m. (the first starts at 7 p.m.). The feat is entirely possible since both take place at the Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theatre. The play chronicles the late, eccentric English fashion editor Isabella Blow through settings as varied as Sri Lanka and New York, all while decked out in Alexander McQueen haute couture and her signature Philip Treacy hats no less. SNL alums Seth Meyers (shown here), Tracy Morgan and Sarah Silverman are just some of the talent rounding out the five-day event.
Beach Bowery
Punk rock's loss was men's wear's gain when the legendary CBGB club along New York's Bowery became a John Varvatos boutique. The CFDA award-winning fashion designer launched his third Bowery NYC concept store on Lincoln Road with dcor that wails rock 'n' roll exposed brick walls, a smoky mirror ceiling and enormous, black crystal chandelier. Selection from his brands Collection, Star USA and Converse by John Varvatos is on par with Manhattan's, albeit with a tropical edge including pastels and lightweight knits. Stylish gents may also pick up accessories like handcrafted jewelry and limited-edition watches through an Ernst Benz collaboration, while photography collectors can score exclusive, musician portraits in the onsite gallery.
