It’s just about time to put summer 2025 in the books. At VF the season usually brings with it an outsize portion of Hamptons coverage, seeing as how the easternmost region of New York State so often serves as a stage for parables of power, wealth, and endless froth. Today, Stephanie Krikorian, who’s written about the region for years, has a different kind of Hamptons story. She’s spent the last several weeks speaking to immigrant workers, their advocates, and their employers in the area to get a sense of the anxiety they’ve all lived with during the early months of Donald Trump’s second term—and what they fear may come after Labor Day.
Elsewhere today, Anthony Breznican interviews American Office mastermind Greg Daniels about his pseudo-reboot of the show; Rose Byrne talks about a career-redefining role; and we take a closer look at the Telluride Film Festival’s lineup.
