Cougars

STYLE ICON: PEG BUNDY

The Cougar patron saint: Ivana Trump

Known for:
Swilling champagne, taking Pilates classes and frequenting the medispa for “freshening.” The creature married well the first (and/or second) time, was likely left for a younger model (literally), and now just wants a boy toy to call her own. Like her breed’s namesake, her fur coat is never faux—other aspects of her physique, however, are questionable.

Patron saint:
Ivana Trump. The 59-year-old socialite recently announced she’ll divorce her 36-year-old fourth husband. Young businessmen-about-town rejoice (or is it cower?).
