Julia Restoin-Roitfeld: Viva Moda

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld graces the cover of the winter issue of Polish fashion quarterly Viva! Moda and I love the elegant and sophisticated air, the clothing brings out a different side of her. Victor Demarchelier photographed the cover. Inside readers will find an interview with Julia in which I hope she explains the diamond ring that seems to be fixed on her left hand… Are Julia Restoin-Roitfeld and Robert Konjic engaged?

Happy Halloween Roitfeld Style

For Halloween this year, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld chose to fulfill her superhero fantasies by donning a Wonder Woman costume; she is pictured here with Poppy Delevingne dressed as Little Red Riding Hood. Talk about a natural look, Julia puts Lynda Carter to shame...

Note also that Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld hosted a Halloween party at the Gramercy Park Hotel over the weekend with the theme "Alohallowen" but I am having a tough time locating photos for the event, please let me know if you can help with this. Happy Halloween, dear readers! Enjoy your tricks and treats!

Romy Konjic's Footprint

As she approaches six month of age, it is hard to believe that we have yet to see photographs of Romy Nicole Konjic, the daughter of Julia Restoin-Roitfeld and Robert Konjic, but here is a treat: a framed mold of her tiny footprint! This delightful artifact was the first gift to Carine from her granddaughter and is proudly displayed in her home. "La babushka" also shared these sentiments about her beloved Romy: "So, this day is very special because this week, in plus of the Fashion Week, I have my daughter and my granddaughter at home. So I wake up with a little, say, croissant chaud, it was a little baby... in my bed, which is very nice but makes me late already. But it was like a hot cookie in my bed, so nice, so I stayed a bit with Romy in my bed."

Carine Roitfeld: Black Tie, Smoky Eye

Last evening in Paris, Carine Roitfeld requested the honor of the presence of the beautiful people and they came as instructed by the world's most brilliant stylist — Black Tie, Smoky Eye. Yes, La Roitfeld invoked her own image as the theme for her ball, hosted with M.A.C. to celebrate her CR makeup collection, and appeared in a Givenchy jumpsuit fresh off the runway. Carine is renowned for her decadent parties during Paris Fashion Week and this one spared none of the lavish staples, champagne and karaoke were in full swing as the crowd packed the Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild. Among the glamorous on the list: Julia Restoin-Roitfeld wearing a black dress by Dolce & Gabbana, Giovanna Battaglia, Sara Battaglia, Haider Ackermann, Azzedine Alaïa, Cara Delevingne, Poppy Delevingne, Anna Dello Russo, Peter Dundas, Valentino Garavani, Nicolas Ghesquière, Karlie Kloss, Karl Lagerfeld, Kate Moss, Gareth Pugh, Gaia Repossi, Mario Testino, Riccardo Tisci, Giambattista Valli, Natalia Vodianova, Alexander Wang, Kanye West, Vivienne Westwood, and Rachel Zoe.
