Today wasn’t anyone’s idea of high fashion, what with shows from French Connection, Matinique (though their slightly more formal Black Label collection was exquisite), and StyleExchange, but they were fun and perfectly suited for fashion plebs.

Mimi M. is like a ghost. I heard reports that she was around and I think everyone wanted to see us meet face-to-face, but they never got that satisfaction.

When I returned to the W, I got quite a surprise: flowers from Mimi M. The note said:

Dear Lucinda:

By now I can only assume that you heard about my little article and you must be curious. You have nothing to worry about. Read it for yourself before anyone else does.

- Mimi M.

Beside the flowers sat the magazine with the article.

I wasn’t ready to read it.
