Carine Roitfeld Rocks A Bun

Just when I thought she had no way left to shock me, Carine Roitfeld turns up at Paris Fashion Week for the Stella McCartney collection wearing her hair in a tight, fuzzy bun?! What happened to those beautiful hair extensions?

She had hair extensions!? Is it really her? Milla is shocked!

I really like the look from the front - very French, very chic. I don't like that fuzzy mess at the back.

[Le Choix Trois]

Totally shocked! Wonder how little hair she'll have without extensions. The bun looks fab.

[Kate]

Boooooo! BORING! I prefer her hair down. What's next? Sensible shoes?

[cupcake]

I'm not liking that look on her. As buns go, it's a bad one...

[Madame O]

I love this look on Carine --it is chic but completely not boring bourgeois because of the fuzzy bun and some loose hair pieces. This is a great, fresh look on Carine-----tres cool!

She's been dressing weirdly lately, not the tasteful things she would wear.
Kellina, did you see the beautiful photo of your favorite editor on Jak & Jil?

Funny, I have to note that Carine's bun has us pretty evenly divided in our opinions thus far:

Milla, I read that she had hair extensions for le bal masqué and if you look before and after you can see the difference.

[kellina]

Eeeek, Kate said dirty words! Sensible shoes! Nooooo....

[kellina]

Hi, Cigalechanta! I did not yet see said photo but thanks for the tip. I will find it...

[Ferferi in Paris/Gothenburg]

I didn't know she had extensions before!!!!! Hmm there you go. Also- put me in the fan group. I loved the bun! I have my hair like that often myself so it's nice to see that it's becoming trendy (thinking of Victoria Beckham who opted the same hairstyle for a while). Cause before I always used to feel like an old lady with my neck bun... :)

[Kate]

A hair bun is a lovely thing. But Carine Rotifeld should never ever wear a hair bun. Nor should she ever pluck her eyebrows. Nor should she wear sensible shoes! It's just not her! (Ha, ha, my rant is over.)

[maya]

It suits her very well, though I would say earrings are making her look older a bit. She should stay by her cool looks it makes her look more outstanding.

[Milla]

Sitting on my sofa cracking up!! Hilarious ladies!!! Has anybody else noticed that I'm always the odd one out?!

Kate - I adore you but come on, those eyebrows almost need ID of their own! Too much on her delicate face.

All right then, I added Ferferi to those in favor of the bun. Maya seemed to belong in the mixed feelings group because she likes some of the look but not all. See, Milla, you are not alone in your splendid taste after all!

[kellina]

Ferferi, I think a bun can be quite chic and I bet you are.

[kellina]

Right on, Kate! Say it like it is, sister!

[kellina]

Maya, I am not sure if it is her earrings or her ears. With dozens of amazing features on that body, I might not choose to play up the ears. I agree with you that I respect Carine for sticking to what works for her for the most part, but everyone has to try new things.

[kellina]

Hee hee! Delighted that we are amusing you, M! If ever you feel like the odd one out, it is only because you are so far ahead of the curve. Must argue though that La Roitfeld's eyebrows ARE her ID, darling! No plucky plucky!

[Amina]

Hehe, Kellina, this post is almost as controversial as Garance Dore's post on the Margiela Tabi Boots. Well let's hope Carine won't turn up in a pair of those boots one day!

[Madame M]

Carine is gorgeous as usual. I like her hair in this way too even if I prefer her fierce and wild!

Kellina, Darling, I was in Paris and I have some pics of Anna dello Russo, Gio and Carine, I would like to send them to you but do not have your mail address. Could you send me it to my mail?

[kellina]

Amina, though I have a long way to go to match Garance Doré's readership, I am touched by the comparison. Thanks a bunch! I will have to check out her post on the Margiela boots when I have a chance. I thought her editorial with Crystal Renn would generate controversy but of course her upswept hair is much more newsworthy.

; )

[kellina]

Oh Madame M, I am sooooo excited to see your photos!!!! What luck that you saw these women!! Thanks a million for thinking of me, my dear. I will email you now.
