Carine Roitfeld: Vision Accomplished

There is no end to Carine Roitfeld's drive; in her latest venture with Mercedes-Benz, she acts as both creative director and fashion designer for “Vision Accomplished: Fashion Film Spring/Summer 2014.″ Teaming with stylist Stephen Gan, photographers Max von Gumppenberg and Patrick Bienert, and model Sui He, Carine lends her exquisite eye to the luxury brand to envision quite the seductive setting for their new S-Class. Sui He revs up the action in a Little Black Dress designed by Carine Roitfeld accompanied by pumps adorned with the Mercedes-Benz hood ornament made especially for the shoot by Gianvito Rossi. When asked about the inspiration for her first design, Carine shared: "This dress has a perfect knee-length, it's a perfect sweater, it's black — something you can keep forever, but with a bit of a sensual look, because it very closely follows her whole body. It's very sculptural in a simple way — exactly like the car. I think this car is very sober, chic, and very expensive looking, so I was aiming to design something exactly the same for Sui He." We can only hope this amazing creation heralds the beginning of CR's fashion line, and, if so, permit me to say — put the pedal to the metal, girl!
