Daphne, my love

Is there any one couture client more devoted to fashion that Daphne Guinness?



The hair (so Meryl Streep in "The Devil Wears Prada"); the shoes (Alexander McQueen Lobster shoes); the lithe frame (so Duchess of Windsor in its dedication to slimness)....



And her lovely dedication to fashion devotée Isabella Blow? Buying Blow's entire wardrobe before it went up for auction?  The article Daphne wrote recently in the Financial Times explaining her purchase was so touching, so reverential, so based in friendship that for me, it revealed another (unexpected) side of a woman largely known for just her fashion sense.

May we all know someone with such depth of taste and respect for others!
