My first job was at
Alberta Ferretti, as design assistant.. and beachcomber extraordinaire..
However, it was three seasons of toil, trouble and strife as I had to give up the Chinese food,
and English cinemas. Gin is still called gin, and vodka vodka.. It was pretty cool, going to Italy,
especially to a seaside job.
All those Italian Clubs along the Riveira! All those late nights..
And major fashion shows, so much name dropping, fine Italian shoes, gaudy prints,
but then I decided to go looking for the Next Stop at the other company in the same small town..
Gilmar, just down the road..

Gilmar.. Iceberg.. Iceberg... Travelling about all over the place,
Moscow, London, New York (The RainForest Concert -Sting, Tina Turner, Dustin Hoffman, Tom Jones, Bryan Adams,
George Michael, Don Johnson, James Taylor, like.. No, this isn't the real name dropping bit), Milan, Paris, Singapore,.. I must have been here ages by now,
long enough to go thru a wide spectrum of the different aspects of the Fashion Designer. Winter, Spring,
Summer and Fall.. The seasons change, the looks change, the modus operandi change.. My hair changed..
Trends come and go, buttons fall out in the middle of a Show,
and I think I'm stuck here in Cyberspace..
