Not only did I miss the friends and family opening on September 19th, the day of my stroke, I also missed the sponsor’s party on September 24th, my second last day in hospital. However, Ludwig arranged for a small group of visitors to visit me in my room at St Vincent’s while the party was in progress. After my first shower in a week and free of hospital gown and IV drip plumbing, it was joy to welcome them – especially Mary McFadden who is a dear and loyal old friend from our days in Johannesburg.

My Book FASHION ETECETERA was launched with the current exhibition at Milk Gallery in New York. Milk Gallery is at 450 W 15th Street New York and runs until October 29th, 2009 (a three day extension over our the previous closing day). The project is a partnership with the Tommy Hilfiger group who have exclusive 3rd party rights to market, distribute and sell a special edition of the book and are sole sponsors of the exhibition.
