Style Icon: Carine Roitfeld


Born to a Russian father and French mother, Carine Roitfeld had style flowing through her veins since the day she was born. Her presence on the front row of every major catwalk show in New York, London, Milan & Paris is without a doubt something that could never be forgotten. Her impressive CV includes French Elle, consultant and muse for Tom Ford at Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent for six years. Dubbed as "Anna Wintour's biggest competition" this style icon can certainly put together a look more flattering than Wintour herself!... (Yes, I said it). As much as I love Anna Wintour, there is something that always lacks in Vogue US.

However, when you open up Vogue Paris, it's a magical moment, every page is a story, every image makes you fall in to a land of make believe and fairy tales. Every page IS fashion.

Black Is Beautiful


French Vogue is not a stranger to controversy, and that is why I love them so much. Fashion is art and art is controversial. It's meant to cause an emotion, be it positive or negative.... But I will be biased as I have to admit I love all things controversial. They intrigue me,they make me stop and stare, they make me think. So why is this issue about covering a beautiful Lara Stone (who is Caucasian) in black make up offensive? I don't see anything offensive about it, especially when I belong to an ethnic minority myself, I think people should just open their eyes and see the dark side of life...

Bravo Vogue!
