...swinging city. She drew more immediately on the work of seven staffers in our London bureau, as well as five U.S. and British photographers. They reported to the slightly jealous eyes of the editors in New York that the project involved four days of "the most concentrated swinging - discothéques, restaurants, art gallery and private parties, gambling, pub crawling - that any group of individuals has ever enjoyed or suffered, depending on your point of view...
...plush and, since it opened in 1962, almost incredibly exclusive (the membership fee of $84 a year is a trifle compared with the need for the "proper credentials"). Time: a weekday night. After a late, after-the-theater supper with friends at Annabel's, London's leading discothèque (which happens to be right downstairs), the handsome son of a peer breezes up for "a spot of chemmy."

Then he brightened a bit when he thought of his late father, Adlai Stevenson. "I'm sorry he's not around to see this place," said Borden. "I'm sure he would have...
There she is happier, fills her days with work and eating ("I eat more than most men"), her nights with discothèques. Though young, she is a thorough professional, arrives on time made up and ready to go. She is also a perfectionist down to her fingertips, which she enhances with nails imported from the U.S. because she thinks they suit her best. Most models make less money in Europe than they do in New York. But not Donyale, who despite her rate ($60 per hour and up) has hardly been out of a pose since she arrived...
