...forgot to tell Thierry Mugler about '90s frugality. The Paris show introducing his fall collection last week was so brazenly theatrical that even the drag queens in the audience were taken aback. Supermodels like CLAUDIA SCHIFFER (with a swirly 'do) shared the catwalk with celebrities TIPPI HEDREN and PATTY HEARST, who stripped (somewhat awkwardly) down to sequins.

Since going private, McNally has provided his services to the defense of Patty Hearst, Bernhard Goetz and John Gotti. Defense attorney F.
