Queen of e.vil?

We happened to discover this storefront on 666 Bond Street recently, for the fashion label e.vil. Clever gimmick or cool enough for the East Village, its namesake? The label has been around since at least 2001, favored by Madonna, Paris Hilton and J.Lo.

Mary, the Ziegfeld Girl

My great, great grandmother, Mary, was a Ziegfeld Girl with the Ziegfeld Follies. She was sixteen when she left her Boston suburb and headed to New York City with dreams of being a dancer. By the time she was eighteen she was officially a Ziegfeld Girl; it was 1909.
