Roitfelds At New York Fashion Week: Wild, Tough, Money

I have so many tidbits about the Roitfelds at New York Fashion Week for you! First, clearly, we see Carine Roitfeld enjoying her freedom from the bonds of Vogue Paris, errr, dancing in her booth at Indochine following her son Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld's New York premier of RETNA. Carine is joined by makeup artist Tom Pecheux, not sure who they are beckoning to join them sur la banquette... lucky soul...

Next up, Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld walks us through a week from his wardrobe by way of "SoHo Gallery? Black, of Course" in The New York Times. He certainly does wear a lot of black and like his mother he tends to repeat the same pieces. Poor Vlad had an unlucky week — in a mere seven days, he ruined a pair of black Dior jeans while meeting with artist José Parlá and then fell ill with a sinus infection just in time for his mother's amfAR gala benefit and his own RETNA opening the following day. But Vladimir is a trooper and he was there to make sure the show went on despite his illness. He even managed to hold down a booth at Indochine afterwards. Only to meet with another stroke of bad luck: Vlad mentioned to Swide Magazine that he and Giovanna Battaglia could not be together for their second Valentine's Day as a couple, "Her grandmother is very sick at the moment so she has to stay with her family." At least RETNA's works are selling at upwards of $30,000 apiece, hang tough, Vlad!

Both Vladimir and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld attended the party that V Man held to celebrate their Kanye West cover at which it literally rained money. Approximately $5,000 in real money and untold amounts of fake cash showered party guests on the dance floor of new hot spot Mondrian Soho including Kanye West, Keri Hilson, Alexander Wang, Harley Viera-Newton, Bryanboy, Vera Wang, Sean Lennon, Sean Avery, Zoe Kravitz, Prabal Gurung, Leigh Lezark, Brad Goreski, and Richard Chai. I hope the Roitfeld duo got lucky and picked up legit bills. View more party photos at wwd.com.

I love that first picture. Free at last? :)

I love her carelessness (is that even word?), spontaneity and her love of life! I'll miss her immensely but wish her all the best in her future endeavours :)

The face on the woman next to Carine in the booth is priceless. She isn't being beckoned up and looks kind of like she wants to run away! It must be hard sitting next to Carine in a booth;)

SO Carine, Milla, I think it's a bad party if she isn't dancing on the tables!

Free to do what she wants any old time, Kate!

Nadia, although "carelessness" is a word I would pick "carefree" myself. I don't think she is actually endangering anyone here.

Noelani, I keep trying to find this woman, do you mean Stephen Gan sitting to the left of Tom Pecheux?
