...major proportions. Her 400-seat restaurant overlooking the Charles River grosses $1,000,000 a year; a second Joyce Chen's will open next month, also in Cambridge. She distributes her own line of Chinese cookware, retailed through such outlets as New York City's Abercrombie & Fitch, St. Louis' Famous-Barr and Boston's Jordan Marsh. More than 70,000 copies of The Joyce Chen Cook Book have been sold since it first appeared a decade ago.

...editors together for a brutal analysis of that morning's issue. "That sketch on Page One today is grotesque," he snapped at a recent session. "The girl looks bizarre." Like Fairchild, Brady often fathers items in "Eye" and "Eye Too." He recently aimed a backhand at Abercrombie & Fitch because they did not stock tennis shorts in his waist size (32 in.). He picks up gossip by mixing with the Beautiful People at night and attending the parties that Fairchild shuns. In fact, the entire staff of WWD is expected to keep a lookout for potential "Eye" specks, whether they regularly...
