Another case in point is Count Giorgio di Sant'Angelo, 29, the costume-jewelry designer noted for his gold-chain bikini. He thinks of himself as a Renaissance man, and not without some reason. He studied architecture in Florence, industrial design in Barcelona, ceramies in Paris. He also studied with Picasso, drew cartoons for Walt Disney, designed hotel interiors in the Caribbean. Now he has produced his first collection of clothes, including Levi-inspired pants suits in broadtail and patchwork explosions of pure color, designed so that individual pieces can be combined in any number of ways.

...government victory was a sharp setback for Montedison President Giorgio Valerio, 64, who as head of the Edison Group had engineered the 1966 merger. That alliance had been seen as a way of helping Italy's chemical industry to compete in world markets.

Reproving the students' "anarchism" and "old barricade spirit," Amendola urged young rebels to channel their energy toward the workers and noted that Lenin himself had warned "not to play with insurrection...
Even bolder is Giorgio di Sant' Angelo's gold-plated chain bikini, which depends for modesty on two layers of chains; hopefully, even if the outer layer parts, the under layer of smaller baby chains will provide a veil. Rustproof, the suit can be worn swimming. "Chain on the nude body can be very decent," insists Sant' Angelo, who gives the hippies credit for putting the chain back into fashion. Says the Manhattan designer with approbation: "They took the symbol of bondage and transformed it into a symbol of emancipation...
