Freshpair is one of my treasured men's underwear and lingerie clients. Michael sent me these marvelous digital images from his vacation in Uruguay and balmy Buenos Aires, Argentina. It brought back fond memories of the time I produced an outdoor Tracy Feith fashion show on the beach in BA, and Robert Duvall the actor--who relocated to BA sometime ago--was a guest of honor.
Michael reports that he and his partner Jason stayed at the glorious Four Seasons Hotel (Lulu claims to have once stayed there during her South American "modeling" days) and I was happy to see he followed some of my travel suggestions: He dined on the divoon beef that is served at the trendy Casa Cruz and strolled along the marvelous Avenue Santa Fe...I also have fond (childhood) memories of strolling along that splendid avenue, arm-in-arm with Tennessee Williams, a few years before his passing. A place that Michael highly recommends is Cluny, a stylish French bistro on El Salvador Avenue.
Michael's view at the Four Seasons - The Rolling Stones were staying in the suite above them! Luckily those old timers don't party as loudly as they used to!
Eviiiita! Eviiita! Michael visited the palace of the infamous and glamorous Argentinean dictator, Eva Peron. To the left is the balcony where the chic despot made her famed address. A little over to the right is a rumpus room where I once had a tequila-fueled indiscretion with a swarthy Marxist guerrilla. Don't ask me how we ended up in there--that's a story for another time, dear readers.
Ah yes, behold the tomb of the divine, despicable Evita. How I adore the melancholy grandeur of great leaders' resting places. And that concludes my vicarious report of Buenos Aires. Now if you'll excuse me, Lulu and I have a meeting with the Chinese Ministry of Fashion, to discuss the lingerie fashion show I will be staging at the Jade Buddha Temple in a few days!
