Beautiful faces. beautiful clothes, beautiful soundtrack

When bewildered by the current state of affairs in the world, I turn to things like this to brighten my day. I love beautiful tailoring and design in clothing. But the reason for my post is that a friend of mine does the soundtrack for MaxMara couture runway shows, We go back a fair bit. We both worked an artsy restaurant in Soho NYC in the late 70's. Dishwashers. $4.00 an hour cash, and one meal. This is when Soho was still affordable.
Cold water lofts were to be had for $300.00 or 400.00 dollars a month. Just a big white space, no kitchen, bedrooms, etc. My friend, Johnny Dynell (D.J. name) was always interested in going to clubs, and always had music blasting. He eventually got work as a d.j. in various clubs downtown. I'm proud to see he is doing so well. This is MaxMara couture show in Milan.

It speaks to me.

Johnny Dynell... isn't he also, cheekily, the "Johnny Ryall" of Paul's Boutique?
