Talk:Bill Blass

puff piece

This article has a few instances of writing that mirrors product advertising, such as "he is known for his tailoring and innovative patterns" (which is meaningless considering he started as a tailor) and "Blass's designs are best known for being wearable" (which would be obvious about someone who designed clothing). The article should be trimmed of such minor puffery.Catherinejarvis (talk) 19:58, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

Where did he get the oral cancer from?

Did he smoke? Or did he get the cancer from oral sex? Is this known? Thanks in advance to anybody who knows. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.98.153.15 (talk) 20:03, 14 January 2014 (UTC) There is a picture of him on the page showing him smoking and it is unlikely that he would have disclosed his oral sex habits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marcusavgreen (talk • contribs) 14:57, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Bill Blass. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

• Attempted to fix sourcing for http://www.metmuseum.org/annual_report/2005_2006/pdf/03report-from-director06.pdf
