The leather vest does seem like something Cale would've been wearing at that time.

Note how the postures of both these figures mirrors Warhol's own. The mimicry is taking place in real-time, yet none of the parties is aware of it. It's kind of eerie!

3:45 Andy Warhol?s Tiger Morse (Reel 14 of ****) (1967)

Tiger Morse is one of five reels that Warhol shot of designer, boutique owner, and mod fashion guru Joan ?Tiger? Morse. Morse gained notoriety for her vinyl light-up mini dresses and her embrace of all things silver. Filmed in early 1967 at the Teeny Weeny, her plastic space-age boutique, Tiger Morse (Reel 14 of ****) features an amphetamine-fueled 33-minute soliloquy on ?screwing,? love, speed, and mirrored disco balls. Warhol?s late camera work is also highlighted: the film contains many interruptive pans, rapid strobe cuts, and focus pulls, and is shot on jewel-like Ektachrome reversal stock.

I recall that this has been discussed before about some VU people on that reel in other thread,but accordin' with this description looks barely see on it.Mightbe could be on the reels left away for this new restauration .
