HEART OF GLASS - DEBBIE HARRY

I WAS THINKING "I DON'T REMEMBER DEBBIE HARRY ON THE COVER OF COSMO IN '78?"
THEN I NOTICED THE PRICE WAS IN POUNDS NOT DOLLARS. THIS IS BRITISH COSMOPOLITAN.
SHE REALLY WAS THE DARLING OF THE MUSIC SCENE, SO SEXY AND CUTE. TOO BAD SHE DIDN'T GET THE WHOLE USA COSMO TREATMENT WITH SCAVULLO TAKING THE PHOTO AND HIS GLAM SQUAD.
WAY BANDY'S MAKEUP, HARRY KING'S HAIRSTYLING, WITH SEAN AS FASHION STYLIST. I'M SURE THEY MUST HAVE WORKED WITH MISS HARRY? I'LL HAVE TO DO SOME RESEARCH. THIS COVER IS GOOD BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE THE MAGIC OF THE ORIGINAL COSMO TEAM. THEY MADE COSMOPOLITAN ICONIC.

PABLO AT WORK (left) AND A FINISHED LOOK - PERFECTLY 60S (right)
COMING FROM A VERY GOOD ITALIAN FAMILY, THAT WOULD NEVER HAVE APPROVED OF HIM BECOMING A MAKEUP ARTIST.  SO HE MOVED TO ROME, CHANGED HIS NAME TO "PABLO MANZONI" AND JUST WALKED INTO THE ELIZABETH ARDEN SALON AND SAID HE WANTED TO BE A MAKEUP ARTIST. AND SO HE WAS! SEVEN YEARS LATER HE WAS SENT TO NEW YORK CITY TO BE THE CREATIVE DIRECTOR IN THE MAKEUP SALON OF ELIZABETH ARDEN 5TH AVE. PABLO BECAME KNOWN FOR HIS WILD EXTRAVAGANT BEJEWELED CREATIONS FOR THE COVERS OF VOGUE AND HARPER'S BAZAAR MAGAZINES.
