"He didn't have a model, particularly," Hollinghurst said, and his voice, implausibly deep, sonorously patrician, seemed to come from another time; it would probably have sounded on the antique side at Oxford High Table in the mid-1950s, when he was born.

The careful, aloof, patrician George H.W. Bush was succeeded by the charismatic, brilliant, relatable Bill Clinton; Bill Clinton's successful but seedy presidency gave rise to the disciplined, religious, and decidedly non-bookish George W.

|
|

A natural-born provocateur, Ms. Roitfeld, 64, is perfectly happy to take a swipe at the kind of crusty patrician style resurrected for fall by Hedi Slimane at Celine, and reinterpreted with deadening literalism in the September pages of Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, where models are garbed in a profusion of so-called heritage looks: polo coats, glen plaids and pearls.
