………………….In the late 70s a major event that was televised was created.  It was called “NIGHT OF 100 STARS”…..It paired designers with celebrities……..Armando, who I’ve mentioned in a previous post, was both a dear friend of mine and of Linda Evans. He always did her hair for “Dynasty”, and all event’s she had to attend. He told her she should have Donna and I dress her for this major TV show. The woman was like 6 feet tall, size 12 shoulders with size 6 hips!…..A true GLAMAZON! We designed and made for her an ivory cashmere knit long dress with dolman sleeves. It was high in the front but had a deep V in the back to the waist. Around her waist was a thick ivory silk cord with tassels which was attached to a large Ivory CARA CRONNIGER infinity buckle. She also wore two large carved Ivory cuffs also by Cara…….She absolutely loved it, and said it was the perfect dress for her……..She looked stunning….We gave her the dress and accessories…….After all it was made to fit her body, and no one else could possibly wear it………Linda was just as you would have thought she would be……the sweetest, friendliest, down to earth LADY…….I could certainly understand why she and Armando were so close.
