D.D. Ryan, a fashion presence who was an editor at Harper’s Bazaar, an associate of Halston and a regular on best-dressed lists, but whose most widely appreciated achievement was helping to give birth to Eloise, the fictional little girl who lives at the Plaza Hotel, died on July 24 in the Bronx. She was 79.

Eloise began as a character that Kay Thompson, a cabaret singer, portrayed to amuse her friends, of whom Ms. Ryan was one. Ms. Ryan urged her to write a book, put her together with Hilary Knight, the illustrator, and never stopped pushing her to finish the job. The result was “Eloise,” published in 1955 and a best seller the next year, and its continuingly popular sequels.

“The book would never have existed without D. D. Never,” Mr. Knight said in an interview Thursday. “She would have just dropped it and gone on to something else.”

Beyond her historic Eloise moment, Ms. Ryan thrived at the crossroads of New York’s fashion and artistic worlds, seeming to make a statement every time she dressed, almost always in clothes she made herself, always recognizable with her famous precisely stylized eyebrows.

Her first job in Manhattan was as an assistant to the photographer Richard Avedon; she was photo editor at Harper’s Bazaar under the legendary editor Diana Vreeland, and she designed the costumes for Stephen Sondheim’s 1970 Broadway musical “Company.”

Her social circle included Cole Porter, Andy Warhol, Mr. Sondheim and Truman Capote. When she recommended a new pair of sandals or a piece of costume jewelry — only “really good costume jewelry,” she specified in an interview with The New York Times in 1981 — her opinions were noted.

Dorinda Prest Dixon was born in Bristol, R.I., on June 26, 1928, and soon became known by her first and last initials. She attended the Wheeler School in Providence, R.I., and Finch College, which closed in 1975. She moved to New York in her late teens or early 20s and got a job assisting Mr. Avedon. Ms. Vreeland hired her as an assistant, her son said, and she advanced to photo editor.

Artist Bio:

One of his first officially noted works was the first "artist's" label for the famous wine from Château Mouton Rothschild in 1945, in memory of the World War II victory over Germany.

Jullian's book illustrations are witty, ornate, and often grotesque. He produced illustrations for his own books as well as works by Honoré de Balzac, Colette, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Ronald Firbank, Marcel Proust, and Oscar Wilde, among others. His books and articles on Art Nouveau, Symbolism, and other art movements of the fin-de-siècle helped bring about a revival of interest in the period. These include the biography Robert de Montesquiou (1965), Prince of Aesthetes (1967), Esthétes et Magiciens (1969) translated as Dreamers of Decadence (1971), Les Symbolistes (1973), and The Triumph of Art Nouveau (1974). Among others, he admired French painter Antonio de La Gandara. A collector, he published his autobiography, La Brocante, which detailed the "love of small objects," in 1975.

Works of fiction by Jullian dealt with the decadent, sensual, and macabre. He explored the themes of homoeroticism, sado-masochism, transvestism and the aesthetic life. His gift for satire is evident both in fiction such as La Fuite en Egypte (1968; published as The Flight into Egypt, 1970) and in his works of social satire, including Dictionnaire du Snobisme ("The Snob-Spotter’s Guide," 1958), Les Collectioneurs ("The Collectors," 1967), and most notably his collaboration with the British novelist Angus Wilson, For Whom the Cloche Tolls: A Scrap-Book of the Twenties (1953), which he also illustrated.

Other books include Montmartre (1977) and Les Orientalistes (1977), works of art history; and biographies of Edward VII (1962), Wilde (1967), Gabriele D’Annunzio (1971), Jean Lorrain (1974), Violet Trefusis (1976), and Sarah Bernhardt.

Best 100-Inch TV Experience I’ve ever had
Style: 2026 Model, Size: 100-Inch, Style: 2026 Model, Size: 100-Inch
Absolutely stunning picture and performance! I’ve been using the Toshiba 100" Z670 Series Mini-LED TV 9 hours+ every day, and it’s nothing short of amazing. The Mini-LED backlight combined with QLED delivers incredible contrast and vibrant colors — way better than conventional LED TVs. The native 144Hz panel makes motion incredibly smooth, whether I'm watching sports or playing fast-paced games on my PS5. And it’s super thin!! Game Mode Pro works flawlessly; I barely notice any input lag. The REGZA Engine Zri keeps everything snappy, and Dolby Vision IQ + HDR10+ make movies pop. Sound from Dolby Atmos is surprisingly immersive for built-in speakers. Setup was easy with Fire TV built-in, and Alexa is a nice bonus. For a 100-inch screen, the design is sleek and edge-to-edge. Definitely worth every penny if you want a premium home theater experience. Highly recommend!

Great picture quality and smooth performance

This Toshiba 65" Mini‑LED TV has been a great upgrade for my living room. The picture is bright and clear, and the colors look very natural. The 144Hz refresh rate makes movies and games feel smooth, and Dolby Vision IQ works well in different lighting. The built‑in Fire TV is easy to use, and the sound with Dolby Atmos is better than I expected. Overall, it’s a solid TV for everyday watching and gaming.

Good quality
Style: 2026 Model, Size: 85-Inch
I am extremely impressed with this Toshiba 85” mini LED TV. The picture quality is absolutely stunning. Sound quality is better than expected for a flat-screen TV. The built-in audio is clear and immersive, and Dolby Atmos adds a nice sense of depth without needing an immediate soundbar upgrade. The Fire TV interface is easy to use and responsive, with Alexa built-in for convenient voice control. Setup was quick, and streaming apps run smoothly without lag. This TV feels like a premium product at a great value for its size and features, if you’re looking for a larger-screen TV with excellent picture quality, strong gaming performance, and smart features, this is definitely a great choice

Good audio system
Style: 2026 Model, Size: 55-Inch, Style: 2026 Model, Size: 55-Inch
I got the 55-inch model to replace an older Hisense 43A6 that stopped working, and I'm happy with it. The bigger screen is nice and movies look much better and speakers even better than on my old TV, especially at night. It was also easy to set up since I don't want to spend a lot of time with settings. The sound quality is better than I expected. More than good enough for normal use. Overall it feels like a solid upgrade from what I had before.
