Carine Roitfeld: Irreverent Arrives!

Oh joy! I am excited to announce that I am now in possession of my copy of Carine Roitfeld: Irreverent and I need to spend time revering it so I will be brief. If you are not similarly blessed, console yourself with the abundance of publicity Carine has done for the book... right after you order your copy.... If you have received Carine's book, I hope you will share your impressions in the comments.

Carine Roitfeld on being irreverent, why she loves Lara Stone and how we can be a Roitfeld
Lasting 7:06 but largely impossible to decipher due to background noise, La Roitfeld acknowledges IWTBAR at 4:48 when Grazia asks if Carine has seen the site and she responds, "Yes, of course." I requested a transcript from Grazia but they have yet to respond.

That background noise was extremely annoying but I was able to follow. I loved her facial expression and laugh when asked about the site. She knows IWTBAR and its mastermind! Go KdB!

[Miss Charlie]

i would love to ask if all the limited editions are in a white cases as shown in your last post?

Just got home and lo and behold....my "Irreverent" tome has arrived!! And it does not disappoint! It is beautiful! My only caveat with the book is that it is a tad large for subway reading. ;)
(I can't wait to read it.)

Lee, I hope it is, it is incredible!!!! Can't wait til you see it!!

[kellina]

Awwww, Renee, thanks very much for your sweet words!!! xo

[kellina]

Miss Charlie, that is my understanding. Will you be getting a copy? I think I need one of those as well...

[kellina]

Yaaaaay, KRS#1!

Agreed, a bit much to tote about while commuting but the boardless cloth binding lends itself to lap browsing at home perfectly. I shudder to think how much of my time will be devoted to just that... Carine and I hearthside, with a cup of Earl Grey...

UNBELIEVABLE!!!! There is so much to LOVE in this. Again, this is a living, breathing testimony to Mme's development as a stylist and the ways she has changed and challenged the world of images. But more riveting are the shots of her parents, her children and the candor at which she discusses each of these. There is a rare degree of accessibility here that is so refreshing; yes, it is an interview--but it's so much more. A personal and professional history of a great, modern woman--nee I say feminist; yup, just did--who is so worthy of admiration. She's inspires by 'being', and encourages all of us to do exactly the same; to live life on our own terms. BLESS YOU, CARINE!!!!
