- Phoebe Johnson Junior shoe editor of Perfect Woman magazine who has dedicated her life to looking like Audrey Hepburn and the one woman Reality can trust with her frocks.

These Fabulous Nobodies will take you on a quest to be Truly Somebody, in a city long gone but never to be forgotten: New York City of the 1980s.
