Yearly Archives: 2022

………………………No country does it like the British……Just the different Cathedrals and Places alone, with their centuries of history, make it all magical…….The music, the moving of the casket from one location to another, the people lining the streets, and the procession was hypnotic…….The Stoic family, under millions of eyes was something to be valued….Everything was executed brilliantly……..The thousands of people showed their love for their Queen……….”The greater the love the greater the grief”.

……………………………Like many…….The Queen was Queen for my entire life…..that I can remember…….It’s very hard to lose such a presence in our lives for so long. It only makes us think about our own mortality………………..Rest In Peace……..be with Prince Phillip for all eternity.

…………………………………………………………BE ONE……………………………………………

………………………..After a show I would receive many of these sheets of photos to look at and choose from. I would sit with a loop [an eye piece that magnified the individual shots]. We used these photos for publicity, and the Look Books…There is a photo at the upper right of Polly Mellow, the famous editor of Vogue Magazine, planting a kiss on my cheek……She loved the show and had to come backstage after the show to tell me.

…………………These are backstage shots as the models were getting ready , and lining up to go on the runway…….That”s Roxanne in the middle photo, second column from the left…….Everything has changed so much, and so many wonderful people are gone…..that the fashion industry isn’t the same anymore…………..They were the glorious times……never to be repeated.
