The Costume World has lost a wonderful woman today. This blow will resonate throughout the industry for quite a long time. I don’t think there will be another woman quite like her.
Rest in Peace Eiko Ishioka.

When our ladies retired from the Grand Ballroom they returned to their first class suites.
“No section of the RMS Titanic is more famous than its 1st-class quarters, with room for 905 passengers in 416 cabins, staterooms and private suites. At a time when upper-class Americans still felt that Europe was the epicentre of culture and style and so lengthy annual visits to London, Paris, Monaco and the French Riviera were felt to be necessary and with more and more members of the European élite having relatives in America and Canada, the time had never been better for expanding the 1st-class section of the new breed of “floating palaces.”“

Elizabeth Taylor at the Bal Proust at Guy de Rothschild’s Château Férrières. In 1969, a 69.42-carat pear-shaped diamond went up for auction with such bidders as Richard Burton, Aristotle Onassis, and a Cartier exec (who eventually won the prize). Angered by defeat, Burton bought the piece the next day for $1.1 million to give to Taylor. The New York Daily Newsreported, “Liz Gets That Peachy Pear,” and then thousands flocked to see it at Cartier’s New York and Chicago stores, with more than 6,000 viewers daily. It became known as the Taylor-Burton diamond, and she wore it as a ring, eventually having it converted into a necklace. She is seen here wearing it on a choker in a 1972 photograph by Cecil Beaton.

Two of my brothers friends were in a car wreck last night and passed away. They were both highschool seniors.
I’m looking at Zack’s facebook watching his friends post messages on his wall.
“I’m gonna meet you up there one day.”
“I’ll see you again one day, wait for me!”
It’s so surreal, I’m looking at his facebook profile, he’s alive and he’s smiling and I can’t wrap my mind around the fact that no, he isn’t here anymore.
I don’t know how to feel.
It’s just. It’s not fair. I’ve said that so many time over the past few days but it’s just not fair. I don’t understand why this happens.
I see all these facebook messages and all I can think about is their parents.
I just wish I could hug my mom, I need her to tell me it’s going to be ok.
