Les Belles Roitfelds

Nothing much to say really, just two beautiful photographs of two beautiful women. Julia Restoin-Roitfeld is working a more sophisticated look bordering on prudish but it becomes her. As for the photo of Carine, what can I say. Just focus on her expression peeking out from behind her hair then look over at the cherubs. As I said, I have no words...

Konjic Loves Roitfeld

Remember back in July when we caught Julia Restoin-Roitfeld licking her beau Robert Konjic? Now Robie is returning the favor, showing his, errrr, good taste. It is no wonder, Julia looks so adorable. I am sure it is in no way related to that nearly empty pint glass of vodka she is holding... They really do make the cutest couple.

Roitfeld In Humor Chic

I just discovered this witty illustration of Carine Roitfeld by aleXsandro Palombo, an Italian fashion designer and knitwear pioneer who also portrays the world of fashion with deft strokes in his wonderful art. If you like Palombo's work, check out his book Vanitas, Inshallah which includes the piece featured here and over one hundred other images by the artist. Colorful, surreal, poetic, provocative, Palombo's shrewd naïveté draws you into his picture. Visit his blog Humor Chic for his daily portrait of society, très drôle, très chic.

Vogue Hommes International Spring/Summer 2010: Kate Moss

The new issue of Vogue Hommes International features supermodel Kate Moss on the cover in a sultry beach shoot photographed by Mario Sorrenti and styled by Emmanuelle Alt. Please note that since this is a magazine that focuses on menswear, there is very little for Kate to actually model as she romps in the sand and surf. The editorials include "L'Étoffe des Héros" styled by Beat Bolliger and shot by David Sims (which looks to continue the Nouveau Western theme we have seen from Vogue Paris of late), "Basquiat" styled by Anastasia Barbieri and shot by Cedric Buchet, "Elvis" styled by Emmanuelle Alt and shot by David Sims, and "Noureiev" styled by Carine Roitfeld and shot by Patrick Demarchelier. Looks to be a hot issue...

Vogue Paris April 2010: Natasha Poly

Though I have yet to see an image of the cover of Vogue Paris for April, I have it on good authority that Carine Roitfeld has chosen Natasha Poly for the honor. I may swap this former image out once I have the new one, but wanted to share the news with you so that we can anticipate it together. The cover shown here is from the September 2007 issue of Vogue Paris and was shot by Patrick Demarchelier. If I am wrong and it is a different model, I will delete this and we will pretend it never happened. It is good to have control.

p.s. I hear it may have a Nouveau Western theme to boot, giddyup!

Update on jeudi 18 mars 2010 by kellina

Here is the cover image for Vogue Paris April 2010 starring Natasha Poly as photographed by Vinoodh Matadin and Inez Van Lamsweerde. As promised, it does have a Nouveau Western twang and we have traded the big cats for a camel! Weighing in at 252 pages, the editorials entice: "Les Soeurs Jac & Lily" with the Donaldson sisters shot by Steven Klein, "Tsarine Daria" with Daria Werbowy by David Sims, "Princesse Natalia" with Natalia Vodianova by Marcus Piggott and Mert Alas, "Fleurs De l'Age" with Raquel Zimmermann by Mario Sorrenti, and the cover editorial, "Comtesse Natasha." "Une Fille Un Style" is Catherine Baba and they have included a tribute to Alexander McQueen.

What do you think of the cover?
