A newly listed triplex maisonette in the heart of Tribeca was made for fashionistas—quite literally.
The $10.8 million condo is being brought to market by the fashion designer Lela Rose. Stocked in high-end stores like Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus, Rose has dressed numerous celebs, from Anne Hathaway to Gwyneth Paltrow. Her five-bedroom, 5.5-bath abode is clearly suited for a creative, with showstopping amenities that you’re unlikely to find in many New York City apartments. Richard Orenstein at Brown Harris Stevens holds the listing.
Tables rise from the floor and drop from the ceiling of the bamboo platform.

A private street entrance leads you into the 6,000-square-foot residence, where you land in the formal living room, with 16-foot ceilings and grand gallery walls for showing off your art. Adjacent is a bamboo platform with a wet bar, where Rose carries out her “dinner theater”: Mechanized glass dining tables drop from the ceiling and rise from the floor, with space for up to 68 guests. For meals during which you’re not trying to make such a statement, a more standard dining area sits just off the stainless-steel chef’s kitchen.
Past a small lounge area, a sculptural staircase takes you up and down to the sleeping quarters. The primary suite is situated on the middle level, where the bedroom spills out to a private decked terrace. An office sits on the opposite side of the deck, and there’s a massive closet lined with red carpet. Rose is a fashion designer to the stars, after all.
A tequila tasting room is found on the lower level of the unit.

Two additional bedrooms are found on the upper level, and a guest suite occupies the lower level. Down here, there’s also a playroom for kids and a temperature-controlled tequila tasting room for adults. If you’re moving in with any furry friends, there’s a whimsical dog elevator to boot—Rose’s dog couldn’t do all the stairs.
As someone who makes a living off of her taste, Rose has certainly imbued her signature style into her home. That’s a common theme when designers and their associates bring their residences to market, and we get a peek at their personal preferences when it comes to everyday living. Last month, for example, Valentino cofounder Giancarlo Giammetti listed his $17.5 million Manhattan penthouse. With a bedroom blanketed in leopard-print carpet, the unit felt quite befitting of the Italian businessman.
