Following group of pictures are taken from the internet showing the inside of the residence where Carroll McDaniel Petrie lived in Manhattan New York. Also the following script was written by the person posting the pictures Quote: Nan Kempner Pat Buckley Judy Peabody and now Carroll Petrie. It seems that so many of the socialites whom I read about as a child are dead. Back in the 80s these were the boldface names that graced both the party pages of Town & Country and W as well as Suzy the best gossip column ever. Carroll Petrie who died recently was one of my favorite socialites for a number of reasons. First she was a South Carolina native who moved to Manhattan as a young woman became a model married the 17th Marquis de Portago and after two subsequent marriages married retail tycoon Milton Petrie. Second she was really quite beautiful. And third her signature red lipstick always looked chic and never contrived. Her Fifth Avenue apartment which can be seen below was equally as beautiful. Decorated by David Easton the apartment was as one would expect well-appointed. But what some people might not have expected was that pink dining room. It was certainly not a conventional dining room but I can only imagine that Petrie and her dinner guests must have looked like a million bucks while surrounded by that flattering shade of pink. As the saying goes They don t make em like they used to.
