And I will concur Daddy, you always do smell good.

But back to Mrs Vreeland. She was such a visionary, and she was the penultimate in the Trump-isms (long before we heard "you're fired"). Pink is the new navy. I miss fringe. And so on.

The book was out of vogue until the mid 90s when the Met's Costume Institute paid her homage and Mary Louise Wilson brought her to vivid red-laquered life onto the Off-Broadway stage (BTW: a wonderful birthday memory Sweetie dearest seeing that with you years ago on a hot summer night and then trolling around the midtown of yesteryear). The book found a resurgent interest of new pups hungry for her quips, quotes, and embellished anecdotes, so it's easily found now in re-printed versions.

This topic inspired me to read it again, and I have the time this summer to do so.
