1. Harold Koda-Head of Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Brilliant, talented, and down to earth despite working with the most difficult ones in fashion-hello Karl, Iris, Anna, Madonna, I could go on..
2. Chado Ralph Rucci-New York’s only designer who has Couture Status from Paris. Don’t throw that word around ladies as it means nothing. Every time I see his show I cry it’s so beautiful. Works of art really.
3. Patrick Macdonald-Dandy and muse, editor and gentleman about town. And he’s nice!! Odd fact he’s a twin.
