Daisy Fellowes in a 1930s photograph by Cecil Beaton. |
"Either a thing is a disappointment or it is not."
So said Franco-American fashion icon and novelist Marguerite "Daisy" Fellowes (1890—1962), daughter of the 3rd Duc Decazes and Glücksberg, a granddaughter of Singer sewing-machine magnate Isaac Singer, muse to fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli, and mistress of many.

Perfectly said! So true and so simple!!!
Love it!
She sounds a bit "glass half empty"... I think I'd prefer "A thing is either wonderful or it is not."
Great photo!
So true. There is nothing in between.
...and there you have it. Well said.
