In the past few months, designer Chris Benz has been sweeping the fashion industry’s popularity contest. And really, what’s not to like? In addition to his fresh aesthetic–one which revolves around a insouciant, youthful sophistication–Benz boasts inimitable personal style, impressive Ebay sleuthing skills, and is the mastermind behind a highly inventive, witty blog. But perhaps the best testament to his Zeitgeist prowess is his Facebook profile which includes a very creative list of of likes and dislikes as well as 285 friends–and counting. Taking cues from the social and modern-minded Mr. Benz, we ask him NOT for his dinner party dream list, but who in history–fact or fiction–would make the best Facebook friends:

 

1. Carol Channing
2. Jacqueline Bouvier
3. Margot Tenenbaum
4. Jacques de Bascher de Beaumarchais
5. Suri Cruise
6. Carol Burnett
7. Colette
8. Phyllis Diller
9. Martha Plimpton
10. Lord Alfred ‘Bosie’ Douglas
