...sauce and savoir-faire of a boulevardier on the Champs Elysées. Effective as the singing was-notably Frank Porretta's mugging Orpheus, Jack Bittner's crafty Jupiter and Jeanette Scovotti's vapid Eurydice-it was almost overshadowed by Zachary Solov's spirited, stylish choreography, brilliantly danced by New York City Ballet Stars Melissa Hayden and Jacques D'Amboise. With the help of Jack G. O'Brien's updated English libretto, the buffoonery as well as the bite struck a contemporary nerve: the god Mercury was decked out like the symbol...
...copying in 1961 when he limned a Picasso drawing, signed it and sold it to a Paris art dealer; he followed with two small Chagall gouaches, which he sold in London for $4,000 each. Stein arrived in the U.S. two years ago, and soon set up in a stylish Park Avenue gallery-apartment, where he had a number of genuine Chagalls and Picassos...

But Bazaar has fashioned its own niche by aiming at stylish women in Des Moines and Omaha as well as New York and San Francisco. In the pages of Bazaar, models take on the appearance of butterflies and snakes, Egyptian mummies and rockets about to be shot into space, under riotously colored silks, and heaps of sequins and feathers...
...Premier's liking for the common touch. Kosygin addressed both Houses of Parliament in the opulently decorated Royal Gallery of the Lords, proposing a "treaty of friendship, cooperation and nonaggression" with Britain. On a side trip to Scotland, he saw a soccer match at Kilmarnock, dined at the stylish golf resort of Troon. Returning to London, he was scheduled to meet the Tory shadow Cabinet of Ted Heath in that archbastion of the capitalist system, the Carlton Club...
