Carine Roitfeld's Last Vogue Paris Party
mardi 25 janvier 2011 
This evening Carine Roitfeld hosted a private Vogue Paris party in honor of Gucci's creative director Frida Giannini at Hôtel de La Rochefoucauld-Doudeauville, the Parisian home of the Italian ambassador, His Excellency Giovanni Caracciolo di Vietri. Among the lovely guests were Stefano Accorsi, Jessica Alba, Gemma Arterton, Charlotte Casiraghi, Laetitia Casta, Laura Chiatti, Josephine De La Baume, Poppy Delevingne, Valeria Golino, Diane Kruger, Tali Lennox, Kate Moss, Karmen Pedaru, François Henri Pinault, Mark Ronson, Paolo Roversi, Maya Sansa, Caroline Sieber, Mario Testino, and Olivia Wilde. Anna Calvi provided the evening's entertainment. It is with extraordinary sadness that I write this on the occasion of Carine's last official party as editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris, as Derek Blasberg tweets: "Carine will be missed. She knows how to throw a party..."

Noelani, my practical side suggests it is because J. Alba is a Gucci customer while my fantastical side likes to think that Carine's next move will be films and the actresses were invited strategically.
Madame M, I have no real news about Carine's plans which is driving me crazy. I promise to post anything that I learn and I hope everyone will do the same. We need to know!
; )
Kate, I LOVE the pockets too! Thanks for noting!
Oncet, please do not ask your mom what she thinks of the photos, I already know.

Judith, I am thrilled, thank you! I will link to you right now.
