She’s So French

 

Carine Roitfeld: A muse, an editor, a fashion icon…

 

In a world where fashion magazines have become extremely commercial and celebrity obsessed, Carine Roitfeld focuses on bringing us a monthly fantasy that respects the essence of fashion and fashionistas all over the world are loving her for it. 

 

 

Not afraid of explaining the difference between the “French way” and the “American way,” Roitfeld separates herself from overseas counterpart Anna Wintour when it comes to fashion editing and personal style. Roitfeld is a woman who doesn’t wear jeans or lipstick and rarely wears bags or flats. She’s has a femme fatal aura and an attitude that screams ‘I am Parisian’.

 

 

We all know the story; she started as a model, then a stylist and a muse and then what she is today,  French Vogue’s editor in chief. Her contribution lies in stimulating fashion culture and influencing it. She’s one of the few editors who still depicts fashion as art, as a means of expression. Browse a copy of French Vogue and you’ll find true fashion satisfaction and it is because of Roitfeld’s delivery of a philosophy that inspires and educates readers on the creation of a unique style.

Named one of Time Magazine’s most influential people, Carine Roitfeld has become a fashion icon and a woman who ages gracefully thanks in part to her never-ending sense of style.
