- <p> Let's Make a Deal
- </p>
- <p> Apparently unfulfilled by her new status as Home
- Shopping Network hawker, bad novelist and clebrity divorce,
- IVANA TRUMP has decided to acquire the ultimate accessory, a
- millionaire European husband. In announcing her plans for a
- spring wedding to Ricardo Mazzucchelli, a suavely hunky
- Italian engineer and her boyfriend of three years, Ivana
- displayed a $1 million engagement ring of Burmese sapphires
- and diamonds. She protests that she doesn't need a man "for
- prestige or for money" (or for getting what she wants). When
- the dust settled following her 1990 divorce from over-
- leveraged billionaire Donald Trump, Ivana pocketed $20 million.

- <p> In Italy's competitive fashion world, designers are
- secular princes, raking in fortunes, living in palazzi and
- basking in celebrity. But for GIORGIO ARMANI, GIANNI VERSACE
- and a handful of Milan's runway royalty, the Machiavellian-
- style business tactics they have grown accustomed to may be
- coming apart at the seams. Last week Italian investigators
- charged Armani and Versace with bribing tax officials with as
- much as $100,000 to look the other way at income-tax time.
- The news sent a chill through Milan's dressing rooms just as
- fashion week was getting under way. Armani called the payoffs
- "a phenomenon of doing business in this country," but tax
- authorities mean business too. They have already jailed
- designer LUIGI MONTI, whose firm reportedly paid similar
- bribes.

- <p> Rebuffed Again
- </p>
- <p> Refusing to let go of the case that made him as well
- known for his nontraditional approach to fatherhood as for
- his filmmaking, WOODY ALLEN tried again last week--and
- failed. In the lastest round of his never-ending child-
- custody squabble with former lover MIA FARROW, Allen was
- rebuffed when a judge refused to throw out a 1993 ruling
- giving Farrow custody of their children Dylan, Moses and
- Satchel. Allen, who is still dating Farrow's 24-year-old
- daughter Soon-Yi Previn, has not been allowed to see Moses
- and Dylan at all, and is permitted court-supervised visits
- only with Satchel for six hours a week. Allen's lawyer vows
- to fight on. Not subject to appeal was another blow for Dad:
- Farrow has decided to change Satchel's name to Seamus and
- Dylan's to Eliza.

- <p>SEEN & HEARD
- </p>
- <p> At age 11 she hired an agent. At 12 she became the
- youngest French Open juniors champ ever. This week, at 14,
- Czech-born tennis phenom MARTINA HINGIS turns pro at a match
- in Zurich. The youngest star to come along since JENNIFER
- CAPRIATI began accumulating a rap sheet. Hingis is an eighth-
- grader in a Swiss school, who betrays no fears about turning
- over her adolescence to agents and accountants. "I'm playing
- for myself," she says.

- <p> Isn't it fun to dream about who should portray your
- wonderful self in a film bio? Yes and no. When the question
- arose on TV, BARBARA BUSH had no hesitancy in casting Clint
- Eastwood as George. As for herself, "I'm so afraid they're
- going to put Roseanne Barr in my place." So, said the
- sensible Mrs. Bush, forget aboiut it.
