The Designer'S French Mousika Dominates The Party'S Sexy Leader.

Roitfeld has shiny dark hair, expensive teeth and a pair of impeccable noble legs.

In the past eight years, the identity of Carine Roitfeld is very simple.

Editor in chief.

However, with the rumors of Anna Wintour going down last year, her name has become a household word all over the world.

Over the past year, the throne of Wintour is still standing, and although Roitfeld has not taken her place, she has indeed gained a new role in this incident.

Roitfeld is the sexiest senior student in a popular boarding school in the fashion circle. Every girl dreams of being her.

Roitfeld has shiny dark hair, expensive teeth and a pair of impeccable noble legs.

Nevertheless, she looks like T Iggy's Pop.

She is not a classical beauty.

As a 54 year old woman, her face is losing its inherent luster, but it gives birth to a hazy ancient color as we saw in the mirror of the years.

The audience in the devil wears Prada will always imagine the editor of fashion magazines as snow queen. On the contrary, Roitfeld smiles and treats people kindly.

Wintour sometimes laughs, but it is the crocodile's smile and the cold glare of her teeth - never smiling in her eyes.

Roitfeld's smile told people that she was really happy.

Fashion is not clothes.

There are three photos hanging on the wall of Roitfeld office, each of which is a half naked woman who put her hand into the underpants.

If someone shows interest in their posture, Roitfeld always shrugs gracefully, as if there is nothing more natural in the world than a half naked woman to put her hand into the underpants.

Roitfeld always takes sex glamour as the theme of his works.

In the 90s of last century, she worked closely with Tom Ford and Mario Testino, and brought a new allure image to Gucci.

However, Ford's first invitation to the pair was rejected.

"He called again and again.

Finally, one day, he came to see us filming, so we said, "ah, he is so handsome...

Let's do it for him! "

Roitfeld recalled.

Roitfeld and Testino may be the most famous pair of fashion photographers in the world. They started working together in the middle of 80s.

Roitfeld revealed that before she met Testino, she was a negatist and blamed her "half Russian blood".

"Mario is from South America, full of vitality.

He gives me positive power.

He has been pushing me all along.

I don't think I have made any progress compared with 15 years ago. He made me more attractive internationally.

Roitfeld still calls that time the best stage of her life: business success and her own success.

"Gucci is exactly my image."

She said, "Tom regards me as what I say - he is half the woman.

He would ask me how I should wear those clothes.

What I think of is my own: how do I wear this shirt, which bag to match, which ear studs will be the best and what underwear to wear?

Sometimes in a photo, this is the most important part: the way you roll up your shirt cuffs, the way you carry your bag, and the way you cross your legs -- they always bring the most significant difference.

"Fashion," Roitfeld said, "is not clothes, but modeling."

For a fashion magazine editor, it is a little risky to make such remarks, because as long as you tell the readers that the new coats can make them beautiful, you can help those advertising houses to make money, but let them change the way they cross their legs, but no one can make money.

Roitfeld believes that femininity is at least partly natural and eternal. This charm can not be bought on Montaigne Avenue.

For her, brand is not everything.

She said that the distance between her latest magazine design and her own dressing style began to grow, because "I'm getting older and I don't want to be stupid."

However, the Roitfeld style is still legible in the whole Vogue.

In the face of old age, she holds her own view: "when you are old, you need to maintain a little rock and roll spirit, so that young people will be interested in you.

Your way of behavior and way of conversation may be just the way you let your hair cover your face -- these small energy saving make you an interesting person.

The sense of humor of a stylist

Not many stylists can sit on the throne of editor in chief of Vogue.

Anna Wintour in New York, Alexandra Shulman in London, and the predecessor of Roitfeld, Joan Juliet Buck in Paris - each of them has written and editorial resume.

"I think probably only me and Katie Grand (editor of British magazine Love) are special cases."

Roitfeld said.

Before becoming the editor in chief of the French edition of Vogue in 2001, she has always worked in freelance.

"I didn't have an office before, and I didn't have my own desk chair.

I've never been a boss. "

Today, she is still working on Modeling for magazines, in order to "maintain a realistic vision".

"I am editor in chief during the day, and after 8 o'clock plus weekend, I am a stylist.

That's great!

No one will be critical of my work except myself. "

She believes that beautiful pictures are the magic weapon to sell magazines.

Unlike Wintour's American version of Vogue, there are more celebrities, not stars, on the cover of her magazine.

The French version of Vogue represents fashion and sex.

Every time the new issue goes public, Roitfeld's assistant will receive a lot of complaints.

"My assistant often does this," she gestured to take the phone away from her ear as if someone were shouting at the other end of the phone. "She heard a lot of complaints from the rights activists.

In France, there are other areas besides Paris.

I think people outside Paris do not like us, nor do we know them.

Roitfeld is best at striking the readers' weak nerves and piercing the shell of the fashion world.

In the 90s of last century, she created a curvilinear, sexy and attractive Studio 54 era for Gucci. After ten years, she and her partner Mario Testino in the The Face magazine aroused a similar debate.

She had asked Princess Anne of England to put on a T-shirt and write the word "Diana" with the deleting line to show the dissatisfaction of the royal family members to Princess Diana.

(shortly after Diana died in a car accident, I'm afraid it's not Roitfeld).

In another controversial photo, the supermodel EvaHerzigova plays a mad butcher, wearing a bloody apron, and is playing with some raw meat.

"I like a little bit -- how to say - the wrong content of the position, something close to the critical point.

Sex, nudity, a little rock and roll, and a sense of humor.

She said, "just like my dress."

I like to wear high heels with sports pants and white shoes in the middle of winter.

I like the feeling of not being harmonious.

I'll wear it when I get old.

You often see the worst dressing up at the airport - in fact, the worst is more enlightening than the best.

It is this humorous attitude that faces the conservative forces that makes Roitfeld's work exciting.

When she joined Vogue in 2001, Paris was undergoing a great change of blood from designers. A group of designers who had just reached thirty were elected as the latest design directors of several famous brands.

Among them are Balenciaga's Nicolas Ghesquiere, DiorHomme's Hedi Slimane, and Phoebe Philo under Chloe.

The signing of Roitfeld and Vogue has also become part of the whole process.

Despite her controversial attitude towards fashion, her arrival actually reversed the trend of the French version of Vogue.

"I will make mistakes," she said. "Sometimes I have some punk.

But I have been trying to arouse readers' excitement.

The number of readers has increased.

This number will never be huge because I don't want to do that, and I don't want Vogue to become a fashionable magazine.

We make a little progress...

The boss is very happy.

People are more free.

As a magazine editor with strong charisma, Roitfeld used eight years to infiltrate his influence into the core of the fashion circle.

From the stretches to the fashion magazines and to the shop windows, her smoky eyes have inspired all kinds of imitation.

Vanity daily is the title of "contemporary Mousika" for her. Vanity Fair magazine named her one of the best dressed women in the world.

She looks young and slim, and never injections of Botox. It's hard to believe that she is over 54 years old and has a pair of grown-up children.

Roitfeld's daughter Julia has taken hard shots of Tom Ford's "black orchid" (Black Orchid) fragrance atmosphere.

Her son Vladimir also worked with well-known fashion photographers.

"At the age of 16, my friend Hedi Slimane asked him to be a model, but he didn't like it at all."

Roitfeld said.

Her son's view of fashion circles provided her with a new perspective. This is also one of the reasons why she chose the older models for Vogue's men's wear International Edition.

"I have met some young models who are very young, from Argentina, Sweden and Russia. They do not know anything, speak French or English, nor have much training.

Sometimes my son takes these poor guys home to eat pasta because they have no money at all. "

So, did Roitfeld ever host a model?

"When I was in London, I had a cover for LookNow magazine, which was in 80s.

But I'm not the so-called super model.

She said, "Lssey Miyake also photographed me.

He liked me very much and stacked all his clothes on me.

Remembering these things makes me feel old, like an old antique.

In the recent interview with the famous American television program "one hour interview" (60 Minutes), Anna Wintour once said she believed that "several pairs of successful eyes" are coveted her throne.

Can these eyes be Roitfeld?

"No!"

She said, "I will never touch the United States.

To be honest, even if they find me, I do not think I am the right person. "

She repeatedly stressed that Wintour's work was perfect.

In the 90s of last century, she worked as a stylist for the American version of Vogue.

"The vertex of" Vogue "is indeed the US version because it is" super huge ".

But I would be happier to be my own magazine.

Facing 100 thousand women is much simpler than the millions of women who are facing the United States.

We are French, small!

We smoked two times on the cover of the magazine. We have the freedom that Americans do not have.
