...effort to increase circulation and dress up its Christmas issue, Paris Vogue has twice chosen a guest editor for its year-end edition. Last year she was Françoise Sagan, who limited her tasks to writing only a couple of pages. This year the choice was Actress Jeanne Moreau, who does nothing halfheartedly...
...Andy Warhol: a floor-length cape punctured by hundreds of holes with plastic spheres swinging in the openings. Or from Lanvin, the dramatic Pier Paolo Pasolini creation: a black sweater that takes a breast-baring plunge to the waist, with bold-patterned Zouave pants.

Rudolf Nureyev romps with Cecil Beaton; Jeanne Moreau presses her fingers nervously to her mouth; Malcolm Muggeridge scowls in fearsome closeup. And Fashion Designer Douglas Hayward remarks: "Everyone is so insecure . . . what can a Rolling Stone do at forty...
