Olivier Lalanne
I am not sure why it took so long but permit me the pleasure of sharing with you Carine Roitfeld's second in command, Olivier Lalanne. This hot Frenchman has fabulous hair and an intense gaze, two of my favorite qualities in a man. Okay, let's not intellectualize this for another minute, Olivier Lalanne is hot. Seriously.
When asked who the next most important person on her team is at Vogue Paris, Carine replied: "Olivier Lalanne, definitely. He’s my features editor-in-chief and my continuity. He’s a hard worker with a great sense of humor and he’s good looking, charming, and sweet. He was actually an intern and then he became an assistant and now I have given him this position already. I want all my team to be young very hard working people. A lot of Vogue Paris now is very young girls with great energy. Olivier is only 33, so you see I really am the old person of my magazine. And I’m the shortest of the girls too." This was in 2005; in 2006, Lalanne took over as editor-in-chief of Vogue Hommes International. Driven and intelligent, two of my favorite qualities in a man.

If a monobrow floats your boat. he's hairy like a gorilla. yuk
Thanks for making me laugh, Clubsprint! I never really looked at his eyebrows before.
For a woman who doesn't smile that often, she's rather smiley around Olivier but then again, who wouldn't be!? Hairy & hot. Not a phrase I thought I'd ever use!
Ha ha, Milla! Hot and hairy he is. I think Carine smiles more than a lot of fashion folk, non? In any event, of course I would smile more in the hot, hairy hunk's presence!!!
