Victoria Hagan

Who
Hagan is an interior designer whose clients include Ron Perelman and Conan O'Brien.
Backstory
Raised in upstate New York, Hagan moved to the city to attend Parsons in the early '80s and made her bones as the right-hand woman (and later, business partner) of the noted interior designer Simone Feldman. Following Feldman's death in 1991, Hagan started her own practice, Victoria Hagan Interiors. Since then she's become one of the city's more prominent interior designers, appointing expensive residences and the occasional corporate office. She's known for her restrained designs, and her predilection for light colors and understated rooms.
Of note
A-listers in Hagan's client stable include Revlon CEO Ron Perelman, director Barry Sonnenfeld and Conan O'Brien. (She designed his duplex at the Majestic on Central Park West.) She's also collaborated on several Hamptons houses with the architect Peter Cook. Hagan's 30-person firm has taken on some corporate assignments, too, appointing offices for companies like Starwood and General Electric. These days, she's at work on her first major condo project: She's handling the interiors for 101 Warren, an Edward Minskoff-developed residential building now under construction in Tribeca. In 2001, Hagan took the plunge into retail, launching Victoria Hagan Home; she now sells her line of high-end furniture and fabric at high-end showrooms in New York, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, and Washington, DC. She also has a more gently-priced line of furnishings through Target, Victoria Hagan Perfect Pieces, which debuted in September 2006.
Personal
Hagan's husband, Michael Berman, was a co-founder of the magazine George. They live on the Upper East Side with their twin sons.
