Carine Roitfeld For MaxMara Fall/Winter 2013







Carine Roitfeld For Miss Dior

The house of Dior has released the first of their new advertising images as styled by Carine Roitfeld starring Mila Kunis in her second campaign for the company. The glamorous black-and-white ads promote the Miss Dior Autumn 2012 handbag collection and were photographed by Mario Sorrenti in Los Angeles at the locations of his choice. With her chic black ensemble, her bouffant hair, and her Miss Dior bag at her side, Kunis definitely has the aura of a Hollywood starlet circa 1950s with a hint of the eternally chic Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis for good measure. The attentive throng of paparazzi adds to the ambience of the images.
Kunis had this to say about her decision to front the campaign: "I've always been tentative about the idea, but this was an easy decision. Why not be a part of a fashion house that I look up to? The truth about Dior is that it makes you feel special and I would never want to be a part of a brand that didn't make me feel good... I'm honestly just learning about fashion... In my daily life, I don't wear the most feminine pieces. But I love to feel feminine when I'm on the red carpet. I find that Dior is an incredibly grounded house. I always thought what Dior does is so sophisticated, feminine and beautiful... They made me feel incredibly comfortable. I can't say it was the hardest thing to do." Dior plans to release more material from the campaign next week including a short film and behind-the-scenes footage.

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld For i-D Magazine

Mamma mia! Or perhaps "ma maman" is a better choice… In any event, expectant mother Julia Restoin-Roitfeld looks stunning and radiant on the cover of the Summer 2012 issue of i-D Magazine, "Lights, Camera, Action." The shot was styled by her mother, Carine Roitfeld, and every detail perfectly accentuates Julia's assets, with the sweetest spot being the stuffed teddy bear covering her right eye in the i-D tradition. Shot by Mario Sorrenti, Julia bares her baby bump beneath the sexy Cadolle bra and the shimmering McQueen cape, and notice that she is wearing her Cartier Love bracelet that was a gift from her parents, another sweet touch. Inside the issue, JRR reveals her ideas for dressing the baby and the songs she will play for him or her. I like to think of it as the first magazine to include three generations of Roitfelds. The goodness hits newsstands 10 May.

Vogue Paris 2010 Calendar

Iselin Steiro, Natasha Poly, and Raquel Zimmerman were photographed by Mario Sorrenti at the Lido in Paris for the Vogue Paris 2010 calendar. The disco glamour theme of this year is certainly a sharp contrast to last year's pinup girls, they appear nearly prim by comparison. As another critic noted, where does fashion fit into the picture? I understand the concept of making art using girls, but this calendar barely includes clothing or accessories.
