According to his public relations bio, Patrick McDonald is known as “Dandy” to the fashionista crowd. This I never knew until I read the bio. The title sort of fits although I don’t think it quite covers it. It also never occurred to me that Patrick had a publicist, although it makes sense – this is New York and he is a man who is seriously out and about. And out and about seriously.
It never occurred to me that he might have a publicist because he doesn’t need one; he’s his own best. Take a look at him. This is a man, no matter where you might run into him — at a party, at a club, coming out of Louis Vuitton on Fifth Avenue, at a benefit — always ready for his (full-length) closeup, and like all pros, he never disappoints. There’s an artistry and discipline in that that is rare these days, even in New York.
