Humor Chic: Roitfeld On Vogue Paris Cover

Carine Roitfeld is again the subject of aleXsandro Palombo's pencil over at Humor Chic, a site where nothing about fashion is more sacred than a laugh. To celebrate ninety years of Vogue Paris, Palombo has comically illustrated the cover of the magazine with La Roitfeld in a wild blue, white, and red outfit riding the Eiffel Tower. Notice the blue glove and the red glove, I love that touch.

Happy Halloween Roitfeld Style

I have no photographs of the Roitfeld family in their costumes for this Halloween, instead enjoy additional images from le bal masqué de Vogue Paris now in the gallery. I found lots of new shots of the Roitfelds and friends en masqué so this must suffice for our Halloween treat. Also view Roitfeld Halloween Costumes from years past, j'adore Julia's cat costume. Happy Halloween!

Carine Roitfeld Finger Puppet

Readers, in the event that you have been craving a Carine Roitfeld finger puppet, behold! Rubbish Magazine has created a set of yarn puppets all knit to fit the fingers and crafted to resemble some of the greatest editrixes in fashion including Carine, Grace Coddington (Vogue), Suzy Menkes (International Herald Tribune), and Katie Grand (Love). I do not think the likeness is exact, but the puppets are very cute. For only £49.99 they certainly ought to be cute...

Vogue Paris Translation: Editorial, October 2010

Here is my translation from French to English of the editorial that Carine Roitfeld penned in her own hand for the October issue of Vogue Paris. Though brief it is adorable and I am a completist so I wanted to include it here.

Si un seul mot devait résumer l'élégance, le luxe, l'audace, le désir et l'esprit, nul doute que ce serait Vogue ! Un miracle enchanté qui fête ses 90 ans.

If only one word were to sum up elegance, luxury, audacity, desire, and spirit, no doubt it would be Vogue! An enchanted miracle that celebrates 90 years.

Happy Birthday
Carine.

Carine Roitfeld At Céline

A thousand thanks to Adelap for alerting me to this video that she captured of Carine Roitfeld at Paris Fashion Week outside of the Céline show. Carine appears at 4:00 engaged in an animated conversation with Anna Dello Russo though we cannot actually hear the pair. Mostly the video provides an excellent opportunity to see the looks being worn on the streets of Paris during Fashion Week.
