...very traditional kind: the long lines and soft fabrics of Hollywood Golden Age couture. From 1964, when he captured Jacqueline Kennedy's attention and began clothing her in a monarch widow's blacks and whites, the little man with the slim, feline smile has outfitted a host of high-end one-name celebrities - Liz, Diana, Julia - and the Euro-royalty whose tastes influenced the decisions of retail buyers, country club wives and the more ambitious shopgirls...
House Culture: Divided. Some hard-core Winthropians have mystifying Griffin pride, but the majority of the house is blasé about ’Throp culture. Although it plays host to campus “traditions” like Debauchery and Thropstock (the house’s outdoor carnival), Winthrop residents don’t summon a lot of energy for the house on the whole.

Those who value aesthetics over room quality should still hope for Lowell or Adams, but the more pragmatic...
...announcement as the most recent example of the CEB’s ineptitude. It seems crazy, the argument goes, that if Brown can get Nas and Of Montreal for their Spring Weekend, Harvard must settle for Third Eye Blind and Gavin DeGraw (and when given the opportunity to host Girl Talk, the Yard was left with little music and a near-riot). However, the CEB and the HCC, which are, together, in charge of selecting the Yardfest artists, say that such frustrated sentiments are built upon a fundamental misunderstanding of the selection process. Most importantly, while Brown will charge...
