Intimacy, that's my magic word for why I live here.

en Fashion is about change and, for me, the philosophy is always the same ... that the clothes have to be really modern and make women look really beautiful, ...

Two Seidlitz powders, one in blue And one in white, together drew And having each a pleasant sense Of t'other powder's excellence, Forsook their jackets for the snug Enjoyment of a common mug. So close their intimacy grew One paper would have held the two.
