Lot Essay

Monday, February 13, 1984
Got up in the morning knowing that I had another day of French Vogue ahead of me. Had to go downtown early to meet André Leon Talley. I was photographing Benjamin in his drag outfit. It was warm out, like fifty degrees. Got there (cab $5) and Benjamin looked great, very fashionable, and I can really see why he gets so much drag work. Oh, and we got Lidija in the pictures, too, so it’s all nobodies and the French will think they’re somebodies. Which is a new thing because the somebodies are everywhere, you’re sick of them.
