Restoin-Roitfeld For Riachuelo Video

Watch Julia Restoin-Roitfeld in her first commercial for Riachuelo modeling the Cris Barros collection, it looks as if she had fun making the campaign. I like the styling of both Julia and the ad, very street and sexy but with a surreal cast. Also view the production of the Riachuelo campaign or listen to the thoughts of Julia on the Cris Barros collection in English.

Carine Roitfeld: Irreverent (Again)

I am reading about the new book Carine Roitfeld: Irreverent as new news today so I am reposting my mention from a couple weeks ago in case anyone missed it. I would hate to think anyone might miss the opportunity to own the coolest fashion book ever produced! Do I sound excited? [wink]

Woo hoo! Just a quick update on the forthcoming book about the life of Carine Roitfeld that Rizzoli is publishing, it is slated to release 4 October 2011. Now titled Carine Roitfeld: Irreverent, the book is edited by Olivier Zahm with Carine, Cathy Horyn, and Amy Larocca serving as authors. The stylish 300 page hardcover biography, or "scrapbook" as Zahm calls it, is designed by Buero New York and is available for pre-order on Amazon. I can't wait to possess a copy!

Restoin-Roitfeld For Riachuelo

Remember when I mentioned that Julia Restoin-Roitfeld was chosen as the face for the new collection by Cris Barros for Riachuelo? Thanks to the sharp eye of my dear friend (and birthday twin!) Silvia Nascimento from Li em Algum Lugar, here are a few shots from the Riachuelo campaign. Muito obrigada, Sil!

Carine Roitfeld's Last Vogue Hommes International

Perhaps it is due to the infrequency of publication but we certainly paid little respect to Carine Roitfeld's other former role for Condé Nast, editor-in-chief of Vogue Hommes International. The editorial torch passed to Olivier Lalanne and the Spring/Summer 2011 issue featuring James Franco is Carine's last. Terry Richardson shot the cover; inside are interviews with Riccardo Tisci, Ian McEwan, Juliette Gréco, and Jann Wenner among others. The issue appears on newsstands beginning March 18. We wish Monsieur Lalanne well in his new position, may I suggest himself for the next cover? Grrrr....
