In the late 80's I used to live about a block away from Einsteins and I must say the store was incredible. You could see some of the best Greer dolls in the Einsteins window: Candy Darling, Divine, Peggy Moffitt, Diana Vreeland. Not only was the boutique full of vintage Chanel and Pucci, but Greer's husband, Paul Monroe, designed beautiful surreal jewelry. Bracelets made of pills, necklaces reflecting with hundreds of mirrors, tiny buckets of champagne on ice swinging from earrings. The...

All followers of the church of Vreeland, or latter-day saint Antonio... RUN to the new Michael Gallagher Gallery at 4th Avenue and 12th Street on the corner. Filled with original fashion illustrations including Charles James and Antonio, rare books, fashion photos and Weegee and EVERY back issue of Flaunt, Vogue etc. And, the most learned Walter Cessna (of STOP magazine fame) is the manager. http://www.gallaghersfashion.com

Oh Daddy...$800 at Bergdorf's...well..Duh.. Everything at Bergdorfs is $800. I bought an eyeliner pencil there that normally cost $12 at Mac ( which is overly marked up to begin with) but at Bergies it was $24. But I do like their window displays. And as for Ms. Vreeland, I have photos in my archives that will make you pee.I took them during the 70's in NYC when she was still walking around and could be found at Studio 54 so many nights. I promise to post them as soon as I pull them.

Wow...I think you are mistaken Daddy..That is Diana's sister....Verna Vreeland..I remember the night she showed up at J60. She is indeed the "prettier" one.

Oh... and Bobby, You're right. That is Verna Vreeland. Sorry.

what was the fragrance that Vreeland wore... I hear she used to have perfumes cotton balls on her light bulbs (she 'invented' the Glade plug in!)...

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...

"Pink is the navy blue of India." Yes I believe that segment in Funny Face was based on her. I once met Mrs. Vreeland at the Pyramid; she appeared one night with Lilliane Montevecchi, all in black and pearls and all of five feet tall, drinking tumbler-sized vodkas on the rocks. She also sent us a telegram which Sister reproduced on one entire wall in her home.

i don't understand why there are all these personal family letters printed here. should not the LANKTON FAMILY save them for a more personal FAMILY web page? the reason these letters bother me so much, is due to the fact that they are so filled with LIES. i don't understand why the LANKTONS choose here to paint their distorted portrait of GREER. so if i may, please let me correct a few statements that they have made. All of my information is based on what Greer personaly told me, and from...

One of my all time favorite RETARDED moments at BB had to be the night we did Cinderella 2000 with Sister Cody as Cinderella, Shannon as the stepmother and Faux Pas and I as stepsisters. Faux Pas and I were wearing these rotten white onesie pj's for the final scene when the prince wakes up the house for the slipper. The whole gag was that Cody goes postal and shoots us all. MATTHEW planted a huge ziploc baggie full of chocolate pudding in the back of my pj's so when Cody shot me I could hit...

A wonderful recent Memoir with some fantastic photos that I've never seen XXXOOO Satori ----------------------------- GREER LANKTON, A MEMOIR by Julia Morton At the funeral of East Village artist Greer Lankton, held just over ten years ago in November 1996, her grieving parents displayed a family picture showing an ordinary middle-class mother and father, brother and sister all standing on a beach in khaki shorts, tees and walking shoes. Their hair was blowing and their suntanned faces were...

I cannot believe that I am the only queen on this forum that worships this book. I have read it about once a year for the last 7 or 8 years, and never tire of Ms Vreeland"s amazing take on the world. Her imagery and descriptions are so lush and paint...
