I saw a short video from The Paley in 2011. They were talking about When I Get You Alone.
Q: Was that a long day of filming?
Darren: „Yeah, because I recorded that song in New York. I was told at noon that I had to go to New York. I left within a number of hours, did the song in New York, then flew back in the middle of the night, and basically took the car from the airport to the Gap and did the song that I recorded less than 24 hours prior in New York City in LA in a Gap I've never seen before in a number we hardly choreographed. It was awesome. It was chaos. That brings a lot of creative engergy. It was fun.“
Can you imagine how different this story would be, if Kevin or Jenna told it? I know you supposed to say nice things while the show is still running, but I believe Darren. He said in later interviews that he thrives on chaos. Kevin has obviously a different personality. It's not his fault, but this is one of the reasons they gave Darren more than Kevin and Jenna. They knew he could handle it.

Lost - Terry O'Quinn on John Locke (Paley Center Interview)
May 2, 2011
Terry O'Quinn (John Locke) talks about playing two very different personalities within the same character on LOST. Michael Emerson (Ben Linus) says it's easiest to just "follow the words" in the script. Moderator Paul Scheer asks if the cast watches the show on TV.

Ambassadeur Hardien overhandigt geloofsbrieven aan president Sri Lanka
De Buitengewoon- en Gevolmachtigd Ambassadeur van de Republiek Suriname in India, Arunkoemar Hardien, heeft zijn geloofsbrieven als niet-residerende ambassadeur aangeboden aan de president van de Socialistische Democratische Republiek Sri Lanka, Z.E. Renil Wickremesinghe. De ceremonie heeft op zondag 5 november 2023 plaatsgevonden op het presidentieel paleis in Kandy in aanwezigheid van de Sri Lankaanse minister van Buitenlandse Zaken, Ali Sabry. Suriname en Sri Lanka onderhouden sinds 2012 diplomatieke betrekkingen. Het aangaan van diplomatieke banden tussen Suriname en Sri Lanka had als doel de bestaande vriendschappelijke betrekkingen en de samenwerking op politiek, sociaaleconomisch en cultureel gebied te versterken, tot wederzijds voordeel van de twee landen. Sri Lanka en Suriname hebben veel gemeenschappelijke doelstellingen bij, onder andere, de Verenigde Naties (VN). Het Surinaams buitenlands beleid staat in het verlengde van de ontwikkelingspolitiek van de Surinaamse regering. Sri Lanka, tot 1972 bekend als Ceylon, ontwikkelt zich snel en streeft vooral naar een duurzame groei op middellange termijn. Tussen 2005 en 2011 zag het land een verdubbeling van de per capita inkomsten, waarbij gedurende dezelfde periode sprake was van een sterke afname van het armoedepercentage en van de werkeloosheid. De regering heeft zich vooral geconcentreerd op de ontwikkeling van het wegennet, het openbaar vervoer, de havens, en de ontwikkeling van logistieke centra over het eiland. Om zijn doelstellingen te halen intensiveert Sri Lanka in het aantrekken van buitenlandse investeringen en kennisoverdracht van technologie en knowhow. De meeste projecten volgen het model publiek-private samenwerking. Sri Lanka adresseert, net als Suriname, ook duurzame ontwikkelingsdoelen op het gebied van terugdringen van armoede en uitdagingen als gevolg van klimaatverandering. President Wickremesinghe wenste ambassadeur Hardien een succesvolle ambtstermijn toe en gaf aan uit te kijken naar de verbreding van de bilaterale relatie met Suriname. Read the full article

The Designers
Lucien Lelong 1889-1958
The man who saved Paris!!
Lelong saved Parisian couture in the face of the hostile takeover by the Nazis in WW2 has overshadowed his creative legacy.
Lucien Lelong is one of the most important French designers of the year 1920-1930. He was born into a family of designers, destined to make his own path within the industry. Unfortunately, his career was put of hold due to WW1, he was sent to the trenches, where he served as an intelligence officer.
wikipedia. (2023). Lucien Lelong. [Online]. en.wikipedia.org. Last Updated: 28 January 2023. Available at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucien_Lelong#/media/File:Lucien_Lelong_in_1925.tif [Accessed 3 February 2023].
After the war he resumed his career at the same as Coco Chanel’s fashion house was taking off. Besides this Lelong was the one who showed the sharpest business acumen by offering discounts to society women who agreed to be photographed in his dresses. Some of his main costumers were Marlene Dietrich and the Duchess of Windsor.
The business was very successful. By 1926 he employed 1,200 staff and had moved to 16 rue Matignon, off the Champs-Elysées.
Lelong’s style much like Chanel was influenced by sport and the idea of the body in motion. The word for clothes’ capacity to move with the body was kinétique. He said he wanted them ‘to be constructed in such a way that their true shape would emerge in movement, not at rest’.
In the 1920s in Paris Madeleine Vionnet was associated with draping, Jean Patou and chic, Lelong with fluidity. Dressmaking, in his hands, became engineering. He evolved dresses with narrow pleats that moved with the garment but fell back into place when the wearer was still.
Lecien Lelong Party Frock
The dress and over blouse of grey georgette, the dress was finely pleated, sewn with rows of rhinestones, the waist defined with a band of rhinestones and central crescent shape, the over blouse was sleeveless, sewn with regularly spaced rhinestones and rhinestones band at the bottom
Lucien Lelong was one of the first designers to consider the fashion on more than one level, and by creating clothes as well as accessories and fragrances.
From 1925 to 1950 he created approximately 40 perfumes
His muse was his second wife, Natalie Paley, she was a Russian princess of the Romanov family, she had a natural elegance that inspired many photographers such as Horst, Beaton , Man Ray.
After the Wall Street Crash, Paris lost much of its American market and the ‘Garçonne’ style of the 1920s died. ( Patous 1929 collection killed the look by lowering the hemlines to mid-calf)
Natalie was the new look of the 1930s with a slim figure, she would visit his salon to try on clothes and acted as his consultant.
The Evening dresses that Lelong produced in the 1930s still look modern today, as they were influenced by neoclassical drapery, at the time French fashion was entering a decade of crisis, America saw a 90% import tax on French couture. The effected was a flood of cheap copies made in American factories, and many women stopped shopping in France and turned to inspiration of the Hollywood fashion.
Lelong opened his own fashion salon in 1918, he brought in upcoming designs such as, Pierre Balmain, Christian Dior and Herbert de Givenchy. During the famous Dior show in February 1947 at the beginning of the New Look, Lelong was sitting front row to cheer on his disciple.
For nearly 30 years of the House of Lucien Lelong epitomised Parisian elegance. He was known for his beautiful fabrics and understanding of dresses and evening wear. For heath reasons he closed his atelier in 1948, but he continued his production of perfumes until his death in 1958.
Jean Patou 1886-1936
Jean Patou was born in Normandy, France and he inspired from a young age to enter the world of fashion. His father, Charles Patou, owned a successful business as a tanner, despite being inspired by his fathers brilliant use of colourful feathers in book binding, Patou only worked with him for a short time before going out on his own.

After a few failed ventures into tailoring, Patou opened his dress shop in Paris, Maison Parry in 1912. Two years later he gained some popularity and thanks to a generous American department store buyer, who purchased his whole collection, WW1 halted the fashion in paris and Patou fought for 5 years on the war.
After the war he came back into confidence and leadership and started the House of Patou on 7 rue St. Florentine in Paris. His sister Madeline Patou was his first muse and his brother in law Raymond Baras, who was a important business partner throughout Patou’s career.
His collection in 1920 and 1921 represented his worldly influences from his time in the war. He drew from Russian influences and his use of scarves as girdles was published in Vogue on October 15 1921 as one of his signature designs.
One was Patous signature looks was his sportswear for women, which was similar to Chanel. He used jersey, which was originally used for meanswear, to design silhouettes that were easier to move in and for more modern and active woman that emerged in the 20s.
He designed for famous tennis player Suzanne Lenglen, setting a new scandalous trend, calf length skirts and a sleeves cardigan. The new silhouette created lots of press for Patou including a spread in Vogue featuring Lenglen (“ Fashion: Suzanne Lenglen shows how to Dress for Tennis.” Vogue Dec 01 1926).

Thanks to Patous bold designs, modern women can now appreciate what he did for them, he opened the door to a sportswear industry that was just as much as looking incredible and showing odd a designer label as about being comfortable and active.

The free mind-set of the 20's influenced Patou from all directions. He saw a need for simple and functional women's clothing but also saw trends like cubism and art deco as excellent inspirations.The freedom women began to demand during the "Roaring Twenties," including exercising, showing their legs and sunbathing, created a gap in the fashion industry that Patou knew how to fill. It has been said by historians that Patou was known for being a playboy who never married and may have had such a great understanding of the modern woman because he was with so many of them. He objectified them in a way that allowed him to view their needs as well as create designs that appealed to men.

Much of Patou's success came from his boldness in marketing and in his lifestyle, balanced with the simplicity and expert tailoring in his designs. He is often credited as the Inventor of Haute Couture Sportswear. He created press frenzy when he was the first European designer to bring American models to present his collection in 1924, because of how appealing he found their "slender American Diana" body types to be.Much of Patou's success came from his boldness in marketing and in his lifestyle, balanced with the simplicity and expert tailoring in his designs.

Jean Patou also created many perfumes that helped continue his legacy through to the present, his most successful was ‘Joy’ stated the most expensive sent in the world. Each bottle contained 10,600 jasmine flowers and 336 roses.
In the 1930s his extravagant lifestyle and love of gambling led to his decline in 1936 and he suffered with a apoplectic fit and passed away.
However the label Jean Patou continues with young designers creating collections such as Karl Largerfeld, Christian Lacroix and Jean Paul Gaultier, and with this the story continues
CoCo Chanel 1883-1971
Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel was born in 1883, but later claimed that this wasn’t true and that she was born 1893 making her 10 years younger. She also used to disguise her birth place, but CoCo was born in a workhouse in the Loire Valley where her unmarried mother worked, although she would say she was born in Auvergne.

Her mother died when she was only six years old, this left her father with five children who he quickly send off to other relatives. Chanel was sent to an orphanage of the Catholic monastery of Aubazine, where she learnt the trade of a seamstress.
During the 1920s, CoCo Chanel became the first designer to create a loose women’s jersey, which traditionally was a piece of men’s underwear, this created a relaxed style for women ignoring the stiff corseted look at the time. They soon became very popular with many clientele, and the postwar generation of women now saw the corsetry old-fashioned and impractical.
By the 1920s, Maison Chanel was established at, 31 rue Cambon in Paris ( which is still is today) and became a powerful fashion force to recon with. Chanel became a style icon herself with her striking bob and tan,placing her at cutting edge of modern style.
