Margaux is a photographer's ideal, and despite the trend to diversity, hers is the face of a generation, as recognizable and memorable as Lisa Fonssagrives and Jean Shrimpton. When Margaux has her hair wet and slicked back, Photographer Francesco Scavullo thinks she looks Etruscan.

She picked Architect Buckminster Fuller, 75 ("I particularly like his geodesic domes"). Fuller picked Ballerina Dame Margot Fonteyn, 51 ("I have been unable to divest myself of an awareness-not induced by others -that she is of the opposite sex").

...with Bailey's flair. A tailor's apprentice at 15, he was in his mid-20s when he bought his first two-tone Rolls-Royce (light blue on dark blue). At about the same time, he was traveling the world with his favorite model, Jean Shrimpton. Since then, there have been other cars, other trips, other girls. Now 31, Bailey has an annual income of about $100,000, an E-type Jaguar as well as a Rolls and two other cars, a beautiful and as yet undivorced wife in Catherine Deneuve, and a waifly, warm-hearted companion...
