Wow, what a fantastic piece! I visited Paris for the first time in the late 80s as a lowly editorial assistant with an invite to a party at Maxim’s for Roger Vivier, hosted by the great Eleanor Lambert. That lead to a ticket to a Chanel Couture show, my very first. That changed my life! Among my favorite memories: getting taken by the hand (wrist, actually) for a personal tour backstage by Karl, and shushing the roudy gentleman behind me screaming “Regine!” It was YSL himself, who did not. Thank you for your magical, first-hand reflections!

ABSOLUTELY CHARMING, albeit a bit sad... but a wonderful read!! I spent a lot of time in Paris in the 60’s and 70’s... evoked such pleasant memories!!

So great to read about those days and nights in Paris. Wish I could have been there. There was nothing like it in NY. Jealous. Happy New Year. Renee

Wonderful! Will absolutely enjoy reading it today! Happy New Year, Vicky! As Bogart said to Bergman, “We’ll always have Paris!”. Love,. Jan

Dear Vicky,

I miss you and also many of the designers you mentioned, now in another place. What if they were to return to our new fashion world: closing brick and mortar, shopping on the Net and also out of our own closets??!
What would they say? What would they do?
Vicky: conquer that next!
