He has a flair that strikes Italian designers like Emilio Pucci as quintessentially American. His trademark is an extravagantly Californian style: exuberant use of chiffon, bold sun colors such as orange and yellow, the revival of striking art nouveau prints. His magnificent "at home" wear this season includes $1,055 bead-encrusted beige-and-ginger-striped pajamas and a $1,700 gold-metallic chiffon burnoose with a jeweled...
