BYLINE:

I never knew Eleanor Lambert professionally, only at her leisure, in her home in Las Brisas, Acapulco ["The Lady, the List, the Legacy," by Amy Fine Collins, April]. My store did designer clothing for some of the smartest ladies around-Dana Wynter, Lana Turner, Ursula Andress, Eva Gabor, Merle Oberon, and both Lee Radziwill and Jacqueline Kennedy. As Lambert well understood, Lady Guinness was the absolute epitome of class-gracious and kind. She could stick an old scarecrow straw hat on her head with a bandanna and be set for the Queen's ball. Others who copied her with that hat managed only to look like the scarecrow.
