^^^ I wouldn't take issue with your flow at all there Ogepma. Excellent exposition. Being respectful here, to the legend (albeit slightly tainted - the insider trading of 1992) that is Berge, it was a very true partnership, him and Yves, - Seniors, cough, can tend to get a bit, well, wissened (sp) and prone to flights of fancy. As you say he fell in and out of love with Pilati. The House is, as I was eluding to, marked by dramas. So there's every possibility he could fall out of love with Slimane. Rather quickly. Like it seems many have. I'm assuming Berge still has some sort of leverage - in the politics of the house? It would seem that way. Like a sort of (perhaps only romantic) casting couch type of way. Not quite sure how that works in with the Pinaults and their beancounting. What one does have to give Berge in the history of the House is that in the heyday especially he did play a neat business foil to Yves creativity etc. An effective team nobody can deny. But always drama. I saw a v.good documentary a while back. But now - in fact more of a spent force than appears?
