This loft was created for Fredrick Lyne (Jason Isaacs), the marketing  genius behind Vince’s ill-fated Dolce & Gabanna ad campaign. The set, an  empty space used for events, was only shown in a short scene, but Harlan  thought it was worth all the work. “The scene [in which Vince confronts  Fredrick about a romantic matter] was a really wonderful, awkward  moment in the show,” says Harlan, “and we had to show Fredrick as  stylish and powerful. This was an incredible canvas for an über living  space for a high-powered and extremely polished man.”
