...light of all these lives is Cyril's live-in girlfriend Shirley (Ruth Sheen), buck-toothed and, in her self-effacing way, greathearted. Quietly, she has turned their dark, cramped flat into a haven for waifs and strays (including, finally, Mrs. Bender). Quietly too she tends her struggling rooftop garden and keeps trying to talk Cyril into having a child.

Milan staked its claim in a time of flux, when the fashion establishment, still shell-shocked by the '60s, was not quite so restrictive. Italy came on with a rush of fresh talent: dazzling designers (like the Missonis), some fine hands (like Gianfranco Ferre) and some naughty boys (like Gianni Versace). But, in Armani, it produced just a | single world beater. Paris, on the other hand, can still offer a wider spectrum: sumptuous Saint Laurent, engaging Lagerfeld...
