Julia Restoin-Roitfeld In Vogue China
Speaking of sexy superheros, check it out... Julia Restoin-Roitfeld appears in an editorial for the December 2009 issue of Vogue China titled "From Runway to Her Way" styled by Anya Ziourova and shot by Kai Z Feng. If anyone can translate the titles and captions from Chinese, I would truly appreciate your help with this. [Editor's note: See translation below thanks to LALALand.] I love all of the clothes chosen for this editorial, the pieces work together like the ultimate mix-n-match wardrobe. Glove love all around: the way they used the long black gloves as a belt in the D&G shot is clever; the gloves featured above are my new favorite accessory. It is unusual to see Julia's hair swept off of her face like this, I think I like it.

Translation
LALALand has given us all a wonderful treat by translating from Chinese to English each of the photo captions in Julia's Vogue China December 2009 editorial. LALALand, a thousand thanks to you for your help with this!!
Photo 1: Chanel has broken tradition of designing tweed jackets by doing an amazing body suit this fall.
Photo 2: By pairing a rocker tee and a mini skirt with a traditional Chanel jacket, there's an added sense of youthfulness to the whole look.
Photo 3: Miu Miu dares to reveal much more skin than usual, making it a very sexy collection.
Photo 4: Animal prints and a high waisted skirt is a great way for one to show off their playful side.
Photo 5: This fur coat is made much more accessible by pairing it with t-shirt and pants.
Photo 6: Decadent and very 40's, done exquisitely by Dolce & Gabbana.
Photo 7: Gorgeous, striking red.
Photo 8: Blumarine's daring leopard prints body suit is indeed a great visual feast.
Photo 9: To soften the whole look, animal prints can be paired with a feminine dress.
Photo 10: The ever so playful Louis Vuitton bunny is not afraid of the clash between the stripes and the flower prints.
Photo 11: A breath of fresh air brought about by the striking striped tee.
Photo 12: Jean Paul Gaultier has broken boundaries by placing fur and fishnet in one look.
Photo 13: Instead of looking like a cold and aloof beauty, Julia oozes sexiness while maintaining the girl next door look, when wearing the animal prints dress.
Photo 14: The softness and the hardness of Fendi comes together to form an amazing visual feast.
Photo 15: It just takes a belt to make the outfit look much more chic.
Photo 16: Prada has paired a v-neck knit with thigh-high fisherman boots. Very edgy.

Beautiful photographs! Thanks for sharing :)
Such a gorgeous photo :)
Hi, Fair!! I am always happy to share, thank you for commenting!
Hi, Jeanne! The whole editorial is totally gorgeous! My boyfriend didn't even recognize Julia at first since her hair looks so different when it's up.
Thank you for stopping by and introducing me to your blog as well! How was the Röyksopp show? It's so cool you saw them, I love their sound.
Stunning!
Kate, that's exactly the word! How can I possibly want to wear this? But I do! The gloves... must possess the gloves.. To wear around the house of course.

Pardon my translation, but the featured photo above says that "The softness and the hardness of Fendi comes together to form an amazing visual feast." Or something around there.
Thank you so much, LALALand! Is there any chance that you'd be willing to share the translation for the rest of the editorial? If so, all of the spreads are located in the photo gallery. Thank you again for your kindness.
Sincerely,
Kellina
