"the" Mrs. Astor

Tuesday, September 15, 2009

I was thumbing through one of Leopoldo's many fashion books and found this photo of his parent's 25 th wedding anniversary. How fabulous; here we have his evil twin, Freddie, pictured in the mid background. These were the days when the twins like to play "tricks" on people, by running into the bathroom, changing shirts, and go back to make out with each other's boys. In addition, their mother Consuelo in wearing not Balenciaga but a gown designed and sewn by Leopoldo.

May I borrow Senor Martinez's glasses?

Chalk me up as another one duped by the boys; at first glance I thought Leopoldo in the middle and Freddie to the left. Were they ever called the "terrible twos?"

What a wonderful family portrait! As the recipient of an original "Leopoldo" design, I can attest to the talent that made his beautiful mother's dress.

God, what a good-looking family. Elegant and no doubt witty and charming. You are a lucky woman, Mrs. Astor.
