New York Times’ obit is so sad: “For a meeting with the family’s land manager there, Ms. Blow selected from her closet a pair of violet satin, high-heeled Manolo Blahniks, a coat made from brilliantly colored opaque plastic bags, and a Stephen Jones hat of cock feathers curled to resemble question marks.
‘In static, the coat just hung down in limp folds,’ Mr. Bowles said. As its wearer moved, however, the bags inflated, as if some gorgeous, alien apparition had landed in a muddy field.
Mr. Bowles said: ‘This was for a meeting with a man on a tractor. She thought it was absolutely appropriate and picturesque, and that it would catch the breeze on the hills to spectacular effect.’ “

And the funerals were the fashion event of the season!
