Carine Roitfeld: Intercontinental Chic
samedi 19 juillet 2014 
In a piece titled "Intercontinental Chic" for the August issue of Harper's Bazaar, "the world's most fashionable women, handpicked by the editors of Bazaar's international editions, share their secrets," and of course Carine Roitfeld tops the list of the très chic. In case you have not seen it, here are a few of Carine's personal preferences in culture, beauty, and fashion.
Carine Roitfeld on the essence of France's irreverent cool
CULTURE
Escape: The Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes is pure luxury.
Design: Any furniture by Knoll.
Film: E.T. — a classic!
Book: Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment.
Restaurant: Shang Palace at the Shangri-La Hotel, in Paris. It reminds me of the Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong.
Extras: I'm very fond of white tulips, particularly the way they continue to grow even after they've been cut. It's strange and beautiful.
BEAUTY
Routine: I'm quite unfaithful to skin-care products, but I do like La Prairie.
Eyes: Serge Lutens eyeliner comes in an old-fashioned lacquered box — you feel like a geisha when you use it.
FASHION
Philosophy: I'm always inspired by Helmut Newton's photographs of Yves Saint Laurent and by the work of Bob Richardson.
Key Pieces: For fall, I'm excited to wear Prada's long, thin scarves, as well as Givenchy's butterfly dress — butterflies are a big trend this season. And I love Tom Ford's long black skirt and jacket, to me this look is the new Le Smoking.
Shoes: I adore Miu Miu's translucent boots.
