"   Picture it: Milan Fashion Week. The lobby of the Hotel Principe di Savoia. Anytime after midnight.  I generally hate recommending to anyone that they go hang out in hotel lobbies, unless of course...well, that&amp;#039;s another story. But the Principe lobby has been a fashion VIP watering hole for as far back as I can remember.  I went to my first Milan shows in the early `90s and, as a sprightly young lad, it was a fun, campy, and intoxicating fashion moment each night. Now, almost 20 years later, the scene (I can&amp;#039;t believe it!) hasn&amp;#039;t relented one bit. I&amp;#039;m older, tire way too easily, but still get my occasional fix once every season. And that fix was last night. While I missed the crazy hijinx from previous evenings this week (a certain editor was moo-ing after last call. Don&amp;#039;t ask), it was still a night to remember. Seen and heard: *Wicked talented stylist Karl Templer, who just returned from Venice working on Benetton, but earlier in the week had styled the Pringle show (Gorgeous!). *The beautiful and gracious model, Daria (even more gorgeous!) \u2013 wrapped in her mink sweater, old T-shirt, and jeans \u2013 telling me she&amp;#039;s headed soon to Canada to do a PA tour for Lancome. *Margherita Missoni, blowing in from her birthday dinner, who pointed out to me that, for the first time, her birthday did not fall directly in the middle of fashion week (It&amp;#039;s this Friday!). *Photographer Patrick Demarchelier and art director Doug Lloyd, who had also come from Margherita&amp;#039;s dinner, with Jefferson Hack and model Anouk Lepere in tow. *Derek Lam and his partner, Jan Schlottmann, saying (I had dinner with them earlier) that they had abandoned their plans for a quick weekend getaway to Antwerp, heading home instead to watch the Oscars. Not bad for one night, don&amp;#039;t you think? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
