This is just a bit of housekeeping but in response to Fixed Income’s query as to why Phil Falcone’s wife was dressed, in FI’s words, in a “slutty school girl outfit with heels and socks” at the opening of the High Line* a couple weeks back, the Harbinger founder’s wife had this to say, via the Times:
If she wears Fogal ankle socks with her Hermès high heels — as she did to Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg’s news conference at the opening of the High Line earlier this month — it’s because she is busy with her 4-year-old twin girls, she said, and lacks time for a pedicure.
Happy? Hopefully you’ll now get off the woman’s ass. (Sadly Lisa “Dime Piece” Falcone proffered no explanation for the outfit at left, though, really, is one necessary?)
*The couple generously donated $10 million to the project.

no class, well, at least in this case..

Yes I would.
tags, Bess.
Oh, and I’d hit it. without question.
What’s in her left hand?

The crucifix reminds me of John Waters’, gosh, I think it’s Multiple Maniacs, where the chick does the other chick with the crucifix in the church pew. I can still here that plunging noise. Highly recommended for Db fans.
i like the binary scale – 1
She’s just waiting for that call from VH1…
@5
Phil’s balls.
@5 she likes to accessorize with a gold nugget
is she wearing a garbage bag?
Phil is UGLY. I checked, thinking he was going to be a typical Italian hedgie which is basically a guido with a lot of polish. Think dark wavy hair, muscles, nose just big enough to be sexy. Not Falcone. I’m guessing he’s 87.5% Irish.
@13 good thing he’s a billionaire and it doesn’t matter what he looks like.
@13 How many guido PMs are there?
Not saying you’re wrong. Just saying I’ve worked for a guido PM and thought he was a rare breed.
You can deralicte my b*lls cap-i-tan!
@12, @14 – This isn’t queer eye. She looks good.
She hunts garbage and dons her kill?
That is no ordinary trash bag, that is Derlique!
Mugatu
18 A lot of hedgies are driven good looking well built Italian guys. They’ve basically repackaged the guido thing to their advantage. So much so, you don’t even see it any more.
@23 -> you win
She looks like the wench that served me when I celebrated my birthday at Medieval Times. Best b-day I ever had. I was seated in the blue section, unfortunately the the blue knight lost. The little kids in my section freaked out a little bit when I screamed in the early rounds, “Cut off his head!” By the end of the night we had the rowdiest section and those little dudes couldn’t get enough Pepsi and death.
SPODE
The left boob is Darth Vader and the the right boob is C3PO. It is halloween right?
@18 he’s not a guido. italian, working class, yes, but guy’s from Minnesota. It’s not your eye-talians like Gasparino.
the mc from ringling brothers called, she wants her costume back…
Man, she is weaaring some fine nut-kickers!
Let this be a caution to you all. When your super hot, ex-prostie wife asks you what to wear to an event do not reply “surprise me.”
The NYT article was decent and they made it up on their own (unlike trust fund people). But whats up with the crazy clothes? Even Phil looks uncomfortable with her in the pictures
Those lips are scaring me
For a second there I thought Greg wrote this story…
Some free advice that Falcone could have used a couple of decades ago: you want to think long and hard before getting into a committed relationship with someone who literally everybody stares at when you go out in public.
…but why male models?
Yawn. Any car chases going on out there? Anyone?
“The NYT article was decent and they made it up on their own (unlike trust fund people)”
wtf are you talking about?
@35 kill yourself, @32 ftw
You can Derelick my balls!
@39 – Try reading more. “made it up” as in “moved up the socioeconomic laddder”.
Thank God for LM and her husband. There comes a point in a high-end institution’s history, be it a private school, museum, or country club, where new-moneyed blood is welcomed. There are only so many capital campaigns the Whitneys and Phippses of the world can lead over a 100 year period. That railroad trust fund money ran out a while ago.
Yeah, 23 wins.
Now dancing on stage #5 Lisa… Lisa stage #5.
Flash Dancers!
The Real Housewives of New Jersey have a new fashion icon.
I don’t see what all the fuss is about.
Julius Caesar
@42, already said. BTW, that’s where 23 got it…
frankly i think shes hot.
boriqua hot.
but then most of you probably do it missionary with Buffy every other Saturday
@ 12- yes she is.
@ 12- yes she is.
@ 12- yes she is.
WTF is she wearing?
Anybody know how old that dime-piece trollop is? WTF is on her left tit?
Guests@#12/#23…That garbage bag is considered to be a designer original, and it must have set the wannabee whore back at least $15k.
NYC society certainly does welcome fools like her into their midst. They take the money and then talk trash about her when she’s not looking.
WTF makes her think that an outfit like the one she’s wearing is considered acceptable attire anywhere? Those f’n shoes look like something from that TV series, “Xenia the Warrior”.
The Guy from Delaware
is she also in the industry? where did she do her undergrad and MBA?

her designer of record. a nutjob in-the-making….
Bess – Congratulations! The NYT uses DB to prep for interviews with wives of hedge fund managers.
I love that she uses being a mother of 4 year old twins to explain away a tortured sense of fashion. They can afford to give $10 million to High Line but have no money for live-in help to watch the kids for an hour while she gets a pedicure? She did find time to play no role in the ribbon cutting ceremony. I repeat my request that they donate money to a hospital so she can dress like a naughty nurse for that ribbon cutting.
Thanks for making my day, Bess. Sorry for the delayed response but was traveling.
@32 wins best post.
