Miss P:
It was my pal Stephane who curated the exhibition on Iris Apfel at the Met’s Costume Institute. It’s funny, because I was scrolling through the beautiful images in your entries and thought of him, and poof, there was Mme. Apfel. You should meet Stephane, you’d like one another!

Hydria, I bet you can pull that style off, in the Hydria way, which makes it original.
Pamela, I would like to meet Stephane, perhaps when you are in town the next time.
