Carine Roitfeld In The Crowd

Pierre-Alban HF asked me to share his wonderful photographs of Carine Roitfeld, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Giovanna Battaglia, and other fashion favorites with you and I am thrilled to oblige. I particularly love the playfulness between Carine and Emmanuelle Alt that he captures in the first two shots. He refers to the two women as "Icônes — drôles et impertinentes — d'une presse mode décompléxée. Carine Roitfeld et Emmanuelle Alt respirent la mode et sa liberté, son insolence." or in English, "Icons — amusing and impertinent — of a non-taboo fashion press. Carine Roitfeld and Emmanuelle Alt exude fashion and its liberty, its insolence." Please visit Pierre's site, The Crowd Magazine, to view more of his fine work. Merci mille fois, Pierre !

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld At Black Swan Premiere

An intriguing new film by Darren Aronofsky, Black Swan, premiered at the Ziegfeld Theater in New York City last night and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld was on hand to celebrate the release, seductive in black lace Dolce & Gabbana and scorching pink lips. How can a single woman look equally perfect in bright red, hot pink, or au naturel? It hardly seems fair. I love the styling of her hair here, the loose wave is most becoming. Has she lightened it as well? Moving away from dissecting the minutiae of Julia's beauty... Other glamorous guests graced the red carpet for the premiere as well: Monsieur Aronofsky and the stars of the film, Natalie Portman, Vincent Cassel, Winona Ryder, Mila Kunis, Barbara Hershey, Ksenia Solo, and Sebastian Stan; the Mulleavy sisters (costume designers for the film); Yigal Azrouël; Ellen Barkin; Thora Birch; Emmanuelle Chriqui; Chace Crawford; Peter Facinelli; Jill Flint; James Lipton; Rick Ocasek; Paulina Porizkova; Zac Posen; and Jean Reno. Black Swan opens in theaters Friday and looks to be one dark beauty I do not want to miss...

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld In Abed Mahfouz

I have very little information about this photograph but Julia Restoin-Roitfeld looks so stunning here that I simply had to share it with you despite my lack of detail. Julia is wearing a gorgeous gown created by Abed Mahfouz, I think it flatters her figure perfectly. I would love to know more about the computers and the bagels in the background, a most curious setting for this splendid dress...

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld's 30th Birthday Party Photos

There are so many gorgeous photos of Julia Restoin-Roitfeld's 30th birthday party Friday night at Indochine that I added the collection to the photo gallery. What a party! Julia was joined in her celebration by a crowd of her friends and family including her parents, Christian Restoin and Carine Roitfeld, and her brother, Vladimir, and his girlfriend, Giovanna Battaglia. Notable among the crowd were Peter Dundas of Pucci who designed Julia's short red lace dress especially for her for the party; other rock star designers such as Riccardo Tisci, Joseph Altuzarra, and Alexander Wang; top models like Lara Stone, Lily Donaldson, and Helena Christensen; and talented friends including Pamela Love and Eddie Borgo. Only Mademoiselle Restoin-Roitfeld could make turning thirty look so hot.

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld's 30th Birthday Party

On Friday night, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld celebrated her birthday at Indochine in New York City, hosting quite the exotic soirée. The birthday girl is stunning in red lace as is maman in black lace; note that Julia's dress was custom made for her by Peter Dundas of Pucci. Via his tweets, Derek Blasberg describes the scene: "I'm at Julia Roitfeld's 30th birthday at Indochine: its ridiculous. Its like every fashion week party rolled into a Vietnamese extravaganza!" and later that night when leaving the party Blasberg relays: "Julia Roitfeld just worked me out... Lancôme gift bag (with mens products, booyah) at her birthday party." In addition to sponsoring her party, her latest liaison Lancôme also tweeted her a sweet birthday message: "Happy birthday to our newest spokesmodel Julia Restoin-Roitfeld!" (Only 6 hours, 38 minutes after I did, but who is counting?). For more Indochine fun, check out The Unknown Hipster's drawings of parties past including one of Carine Roitfeld.
