...exclusive Parisian hair dressers (Carita), and dressed by Dior, whose salon is strategically located across the street from the Houphouet-Boignys' apartment. She prefers pastels and bright colors and, says her Dior salesgirl, "would never touch anything black." The affluent Houphouet-Boignys also have a villa in the stylish Swiss resort of Gstaad (her six-year-old adopted daughter, Hélène, is attending school in Switzerland), an Ivory Coast beach house, an ultramodern five-story tower in the fashionable Cocody sector of Abidjan, the Ivory Coast's capital...
Died. Aida de Acosta Breckinridge, 77, founder of Manhattan's Eye-Bank for Sight Restoration, a stylish Spanish-American who while a Paris schoolgirl became the first woman solo balloonist in 1903 by piloting a prop-powered dirigible across the Bois de Boulogne, displayed the same pluck in her lifelong welfare work, raising more than $3,000,000, though nearly blind herself from glaucoma, for the U.S.'s first major ophthalmological institute, opened in 1929, and in 1945 its first national eye bank; after a long illness; in Bedford...
...Diana Vreeland, a regal figure in black. For a quarter-century Diana had been fashion editor of Harper's Bazaar. But Diana was eying the procession as associate editor of Harper's rival, Vogue-having switched magazines last month. And of the lithe models doing their stylish slither down the inter-table runway, none so captured Diana's rapt attention as China Machado, 26, an exotic blend of Portugal and Siam, glorious in a cocktail-hour getup that included pants and an overskirt. China (pronounced Chee-nah) was there in two capacities: as a model...

In Hanover, West Germany, 5,120 miles later (average speed: 489 m.p.h.), Cosmetics Queen Cochran, a onetime beauty-parlor odd-jobs girl who now owns Jacqueline Cochran, Inc., slipped into a suitably stylish Easter outfit, then stepped out to claim no fewer than 49 new flight records. (She already holds the ladies' speed mark: 842.6 m.p.h. in an Air Force T-38 jet.) Major new record claimed: longest straight-line distance in a jet piloted by a woman-2,279 miles from New Orleans...
Fortnight ago at the gala International Auto Show in Geneva, both companies unveiled the new cars which they expect to put in even more U.S. garages. Volvo showed a stylish new station wagon (less than $3,000) for suburbanites; Saab offered a hot sports model ($3,000) well calculated to capitalize on the U.S. driver's growing fondness for pizazz. So high was public enthusiasm at the Geneva showings that both Saab and Volvo are confidently looking forward to their biggest spring orders ever. Neither new car, however, will go on sale in the U.S. until it has been...
