twice as good Mary Ourisman (left) and Rima Al-Sabah (right) Flair forFashion AH THE LADIES in their gorgeous dresses. How do they have the time? That small band of Washington women who are always up to bestdressed standards and unmoved by ordinary mortals’ closets traumas. The ones who always look put together without looking put out by the discipline required to be appropriately— often lavishly—clothed and coiffed. If perfection is their game, they know how to make it look all so effortless. It’s confidence that comes from caring, since apart from their other talents they know the meaning of the words, “dressed for the occasion.” But you won’t find them talking in detail about the latest couture show, or bragging of designer access. Nary any chitchat about the best way to tie a bow or where to pin a flower so that the bow or flower does not wear them. Most are occasionally partial to at least one brand name—de la Renta, Dior, Chanel, Dolce& Gabbana, etc.— but no one could ever accuse them of promoting a particular house. Where else but Washington do fashionable women fit so well on the political scene? Looking as though they belong in their Gucci sandals and boots while hosting affairs o society and state? What other capital has a secretary of state in residence with a wardrobe worthy of public comment? Hats off then to all those deserving of the (admittedly fictitious) Deeda Blair Award. Before she recently made New York her permanent address, Mrs. Blair was Someone To Notice among high fashion-minded consumers locally and even internationally. Mary Ourisman, Ann Nitze, Grega Daly, Jo Ann Mason, Rima Al- Sabah, Jacqueline Leland, Aniko Gaal Schott, among others, do no less to inspire us on top of all the other worthy things they do. —Ann Geracimos
