1433BPictured at left is Andy Warhol with muse Edie Sedgwick in her "notorious... uniform" of black tights and loose-fitting shirt. That outfit is now unwelcome at the magazine Warhol co-founded, Interview, operated alongside two other titles by Brant Publications. A recent memo to Brant staff, occasioned doubt by Gotham's recent burst of warm weather, scolded that shorts had to be above the knee, "of the type that would be acceptable on a golf course," while "tights are not permitted at any time as a substitute for pants." Full dress code letter after the jump.
