Examining Daphne?s monstrously unwearable shoes and her beautifully insane McQueens and Chanels, one realizes that being a high-fashion icon is not for sissies. Having ratcheted up the expectations of those around her, a high-fashion icon is then obliged to hobble around in ever more outrageous outfits while maintaining a brutal minimum weight. Being a high-fashion icon is, in many ways, a life of service. It?s not surprising that these broads eventually retreat from the public gaze or simply burn out. Bianca Jagger is a good example: In the 1970s she was the most beautiful and daringly stylish gal in the world. Though wildly feminine, Mick?s former missus could also butch it up in nifty George Sand suits. With her bowler hats and canes, she was a key patron of the Savile Row tailor shop where I worked at the time. By the ?80s she had ditched the dandyism and become an anorak-wearing politico.
