Carine Roitfeld: French Vogue Style
Carine Roitfeld spoke with CNN for a documentary about her rise to Editor-in-Chief of Vogue Paris. In Part I of the documentary from CNN Revealed we are made privy to information on her life as a stylist prior to French Vogue. Most of her styling work was done with fashion photographer Mario Testino.
Roitfeld speaks of the love she has for her work, and it shines through the pages of French Vogue. She has been with Vogue Paris for the last seven years, and there is no sign of slowing down.
Several of her influential friends were on hand for this documentary. They not only spoke glowingly about her, but they appear to respect her as a person as well as a professional within the business.
She credits Tom Ford for making her and Testino into international figures. We got a glimpse of the role she played for Tom Ford at Gucci. Ford made her his muse, the most sincere compliment.
The documentary shows a side of Carine Roitfeld that we do not often see. It presented a softer and more affable Carine Roitfeld. We know that one of the premier editors-in-chief of fashion would be passionate about her work, yet there is something refreshing about her level of involvement.
The Business of Fashion has a piece on the Carine Roitfeld documentary. It also alluded to an upcoming documentary on Anna Wintour.
