What’s the common thread running through our second OG portfolio? The word fearlessness came up often. The courage to be disliked, to stick to your guns, to seek adventure and make trouble, to look past trends and embrace the next generation of like-minded mavericks, to keep going, at 55 or 95, despite it all, and (to quote Nobel Prize–winning OG poet Louise Glück) “risk joy in the raw wind of the new world.” A toast to the aristocracy of talent on this list. We see and salute you. After all, game recognizes game. — Erik Maza
Charlotte d’Amboise “She’s shameless about asking questions, using her charm to put you off guard and then getting all this information. She had a great role model in her father Jacques, who was also a dancer. Not everyone can bear the schedule that she has had. I think you have to be born into it, or want it so badly that everything else becomes a sacrifice.” —Isaac Mizrahi, who co-starred with the actress in ChicagoBruce Glikas
Bob Colacello “Bob captured the heartbeat of New York City’s creative scene and the spirit of American society in the ’70s. He documented culture with a rebellious style that defied convention. Always a little ahead of the curve, he’s a natural creator of buzz, making his own rules and shaping pop culture. He’s part of the city’s cultural heritage, just as relevant now as he was then.” —Tommy Hilfiger, who featured the writer in his Andy Warhol–inspired fall showTaylor Hill
Clive Davis “Everything Clive touches becomes the soundtrack of our lives. His staying power wouldn’t stick if he didn’t have the track record to prove it. He isn’t just the guy who gave us Whitney Houston, he’s also the one who signed Janis Joplin and Alicia Keys. No one focuses on quality like Clive. It’s common for art to go out into the world as a first draft, but Clive has an obsession with quality. It can’t be good. It has to be great.” —entertainer Erich BergenKevin Mazur

Usually, a first lady looking radiant on the cover of Vogue is a PR coup for any presidential administration and a carefully-cultivated statement for a magazine that primarily covers fashion but also insists on its seriousness and depth.There have been some huge, unenforced errors in first lady features–profiling Asma al-Assad as a cosmopolitan “rose in the desert” as her dictator husband slaughtered thousands of Syrian civilians may have been the biggest–but generally, respected first lady + ta
