Tim Blanks, fashion critic:

My very first fashion week was haute couture in Paris in 1980-something and I was in the Intercontinental Hotel where Yves Saint Laurent was showing–I’m pretty sure it was the Intercontinental–and my most vivid memory apart from the show itself, I’d never seen Nan Kempner before and she walked past and her ankles were like [holds up thumb and index finger about an inch apart] the most impossibly thin things I’d ever seen so it sounds camp to say that my first fashion week memory was Nan Kempner’s ankles because Yves Saint Laurent’s show was amazing, but you know what, it’s quite graphic so I’ll go with that one.
