Crafty Heiress

Lulu de Kwiatkowski, the daughter of late billionaire Henryk de Kwiatkowski, made a name for herself as one of Manhattan’s gilded youth in the Nineties and went on to create a textile line, Lulu DK, inspired by her globe-trotting. Now she has taken the scissors to her travel diaries.

Lulu de Kwiatkowski, the daughter of late billionaire Henryk de Kwiatkowski, made a name for herself as one of Manhattan’s gilded youth in the Nineties and went on to create a textile line, Lulu DK, inspired by her globe-trotting. Now she has taken the scissors to her travel diaries—and her sketchbooks and childhood photo albums—to create Lulu, the book. The $100 tome, out in May, features charming collages (think Peter Beard without the gore) that give glimpses into the heiress’s glamorous life and her romance with a dashing but erratic Italian aristocrat.
