New Modern Blog Just Up. Raphael – 2017

My latest blog is just up on Modern. It is about the surreal supersexy sixties hairdresser phenom Raphael, the once partner of Raphael & Leonard fame. Leonard, who made Twiggy famous, passed away recently, and that made me think of Raphael. He was so famous in the 60s, but the fame didn’t last. Why? I met him when I did the PR launch for his salon in Montreal. See the photos taken for the launch, not dated, relevant still today, see Raphael in action in London with Chita Rivera. Check it out.
