Modern Fashion Icon - Carine Roitfeld

Carine Roitfeld



  • In her closet: Givenchy, Tom Ford-era Gucci, Equipment
  • Iconic look: Bare legs; teetering heels; big fur chubby; short, short dress; all black
  • Key accessories: Salvador Dalí necklace; daughter Julia, a frequent front-row companion
  • Thing you can't imitate: The kohl-rimmed eyes

Not only did she make over Paris Vogue in her own image after assuming the editorial reins in 2001, but her rock 'n' roll brand of hardware-heavy, black-on-black dressing has dominated the entire decade (or at least its street-style blogs). Meanwhile, the designers she's trumpeted—Balmain's Christophe Decarnin, Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci, and, most recently, Joseph Altuzarra—have become the hottest tickets around. Roitfeld and her team are celebrating their magazine's 90th anniversary this season with a masquerade party during Paris fashion week. Hands down, it'll be the bash of the season.
